I work in addictions and we have a emotional support dog group because many of our patients have substance use disorders, mental illness and/or co-occurring disorder. Emotional support and therapy dogs can offer comfort and have a therapeutic effect on some of our patients who are not responsive to more traditional…

Why did you delete my thread? Simply because I disagreed with you? I wasn’t rude, didn’t call you any names. I’m really surprised and disappointed if this is the way you handle people who disagree with you about a relatively unimportant subject matter like dogs on planes. Damn, Yesha.

During a late afternoon press conference, Hayes said the decision was painful

Ok....so you believe the dogs should have been removed because this woman said so? She didn’t have a health certificate stating that she would be in danger being on a plane with dogs. And she herself clearly did not take the time to request a flight with no animals on it, which is something I would do if my allergies…

Your brother needs to carry medication with him, then, in case he comes in contact with dogs. He can’t tell everyone else on, say, a plane, what to do just so he can go places.

I am allergic to dogs. And yet, my dog is here next to me and just licked my ankle. I take medication for my allergies. If I weren’t on prescription meds and didn’t live with a dog, I would have OTC meds available in case I had to, I don’t know, leave my fucking house and possibly come in contact with animals. There…

Try reading again, and maybe slow down this time: I didn’t say Nixon was “the most progressive”, I said he was more progressive THAN HRC. Which is true, she wouldn’t have the imagination or energy to even attempt to create an agency like the EPA, she’s a retrograde fossilized pessimist and self-interested chiseler.…

“while actual leftists like myself think its” (the New York TImes) “just a shade shy of Ted Cruz.”

That’s the point she’s making, chief. Clinton has no vision. Be it gay marriage, citizens united, single payer, free college, etc... She’s just a tool of empire who has boxed herself in to what is “possible” or “pragmatic.” That’s fine and all, it’s just not terribly inspiring.

“[T]he most progressive President in history” is a self-proclaimed massive fan of Henry fucking Kissinger, the biggest war criminal in American history? The “most progressive President” backed the moronic Iraq War? The “most progressive President” voted for the Patriot Act...twice!? The “most progressive President”…

The issue was that she was a political pragmatist rather than a policy pragmatist. She compromised to get herself into power, rather than to get better stuff passed. That’s kind of a problem when her holding the seat of power isn’t nearly as important to the average American’s welfare as it is to her.

It was the “pragmatic” drive to the center, the ever rightwards shifting center, which stoked the flames of income-inequality and economic stagnation that led to Trump’s election. The politics of eternal pragmatic pivoting have failed. It is time to move on from that and start setting out political visions again. The…

I think that was basically Hillary Clinton’s campaign strategy during the final days when even Robby Mook knew the game was up.

I’m pretty sure if Leiberman was on a ballot with a D after his name, we’d be inundated with pleas to vote for him simply to prevent a Republican from winning.

Let’s remember some prisoners!

That’s when, according to records filed in court, police said Adelman, 47, ran up to them and “took a fighting stance”

“I’m trying to help you. I’m trying to help you.”

They thought that WAS the forger. He’s that good.

It’s not Jezebel or its writers: it’s Kinja. Kinja has become self aware and has started generating it’s own libelous articles in an attempt to put itself out of its misery and finally end all these horrific redesign experiments that are performed on it.

This guy has more honesty and integrity than the president (also, smarter):
