It’s not like your health insurance can cover someone else if you hurt them.

The day when the configuration of the Supreme Court until the year 2050 was decided by the voters was November 8th, 2016. One candidate, the one with no political experience whatsoever, heavily campaigned on a Supreme Court shortlist to win over voters who would have otherwise stayed home - the other candidate, the…

I’m less confident in Nancy Pelosi than you are. But more confident in her than in Chuck Schumer. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t consider him a poor successor of Harry Reid.

Other than Hillary Clinton, I can’t think of a Democratic candidate who would hand Donald Trump a second term as surely as Elizabeth Warren.

If he actually wanted to scale back the American empire, he wouldn’t have raised the already ridiculously high military budget by another 20% and needlessly escalated hostilities with North Korea and Iran, two conflicts that could still turn bloody with one more misstep during the next two years of his first term.

Always a good sign when a man with his finger on the nuclear button starts ranting in the 3rd person about military decisions, right?

I’d go with the alternative ending of Butterfly Effect and eliminate the fetus in 1945. It’s the only way to be sure.

Survivor’s bias at work here - nine times out of ten, he dies in that Dom-jot bar at age 22 and never makes it to a “life in obscurity as a middling science officer”, which isn’t the worst thing compared to dying young and eternal nothingness, or living out the rest of his life as a severely mentally and physically…

Inject an Orca with roids for a decade and watch what happens.

I wonder if these people actually care about Sanders’ policies, or if they’re more like Hooligans, who care less about soccer and more about beating up people.

Hot, socialist take: Public utilities (like electricity and water) should be controlled by public entities that answer to the voters in their municipalities, not by private, for-profit corporations looking to squeeze costs wherever they can, that answer to investment funds managed out of New York or London.

It’s simpler than that: We know he was on the phone with Turkish dictator Erdogan right before he made the call to withdraw the troops from Syria - it’s likely that Erdogan offered to buy military equipment from the US, maybe reconsider the arms deal they’ve made with the Russians in favor of an American manufacturer.…

If they ever make a sequel to Falling Down, but with a black protagonist, it will be a short film with a runtime of six minutes.

That approach worked well in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, didn’t it?

Republicans want the United States to be scaled back to a 19th century nightwatch state that provides little more than police and military, but otherwise compels every citizen to fend for themselves.

“Curt and Steve go to Burges”.

Only when I can wear my back protector. Which is, coincidentally, also useful in dealing with Republicans.

The ten commandments are pretty silly, redundant and demonstrate a real lack of priorities. It’s almost as if they were invented by people whose knowledge of the universe was far closer to that of cavemen than to our own.

Mrs “bipartisan marketplace of ideas” Pelosi first has to listen to her own better angels. And by better angels I mean her constituents. Those two are only a critical mass of voter apathy away from reverting back to Chamberlain and Daladier.

Predator, Alien, Terminator - can we please lay these tired, old, worn-out franchises to rest? They saw their heyday more than a generation ago, and every new sequel, prequel and reboot falls far short of the old films and offers nothing new that would have justified greenlighting them in the first place.
