I go to Planned Parenthood for pap smears: they are so much more gentle and respectful than the doctors I have had endured at Kaiser (though I finally found one great nurse practitioner: made all of the difference!), and I am in California. Our Planned Parenthood was in a lovely building (since relocated): this said,…

not about this case, but it still applies:

Oh, it’s Clinton supporters now, huh? You realize that this isn’t a verbal conversation, at any point someone can scroll back through the thread and see exactly where you keep shifting the goalposts.

It’s relevant that the entire party needs to be overhauled and the system is broken when the sitting dem POTUS is a POC and the frontrunner for dem POTUS is a woman. Somehow the system wasn’t broken when it was white men running things. Apparently. Or not enough to care about a revolution.

Indeed. Also, let us not forget that Hillary had been working hard to help fund and shape the Democratic party for decades. Sanders, in addition to being a fringe candidate at the time, did not have this history with the DNC (to put it mildly). I can imagine that DNC simply paid Sanders very little mind in their early…

WORD

Yeah. I really want the DNC to sit around doing fuck all until a newcomer shows up to announce he has a master plan. Which was apparently what these idiots wanted.

And wouldn’t we all be criticizing the DNC if they hadn’t had an early strategy? I know I would.

Oh FFS. Sanders was not polling with any kind of real support at the time this stuff was written. It’s not unfair to support a strong front runner to try to make sure a Dem gets the nod. You know what Sanders supporters? HRC was also favored early on in 2007/8. You know what, a black man named Barack Hussein Obama…

Just sent the story link to a Jihad I know. There are plenty of them out there. This is bullshit.

It’s not an exclusively Islamic name, either. One of the big names in my former academic field is Ali Jihad Racy (who, not surprisingly, goes by “A. J. Racy” these days). He’s a Coptic Christian from Egypt.

It’s kinda common in Islamic countries. I have a friend named Jihad too, so the fact that this kinda shit happens is stupid.

Oh my gosh, right? I nearly got in a yelling match with a bernie or bust person a week ago who told me that Trump wouldn’t be that bad and the supreme court didn’t matter. It would just be 1 or 2 picks and Hillary wouldn’t do a good job anyway. I mean she wouldn’t even want to overturn citizens united. And ARGH. Still…

I think this is my biggest point of contentio with all these #neverhillary chumps.

Yes, I can’t stand those whiny brats who think somehow it’s okay to let Trump win because Trump and Hillary aren’t that different. Um fucking NO.

This is why whenever anyone tells me that using the SCOTUS as a point in the election is a “fear tactic” I want to literally murder them. I’m terrified how this may go.

Religion is a helluva drug :/

The problem with most gun control advocates is that most have never handled or shot a firearm before.

Most of the ban period took place under the CDC’s grant blockage surrounding gun violence, don’t pretend there’s a surfeit of information to work with.

All responsible gun owners are responsible gun owners right up until they aren't. Weird how that works.

Although I get the impression that the Welsh are in agreement with England.
