To be honest with you, I’m probably similar. To put this as succinctly as possible, I will say that I’ve been a Republican for my entire life because I’m a privileged asshole. I’m a straight, white male. I spent my entire life voting for Republicans because their “less taxes” platform is the only one that benefits me.…

It’s been reported that the Packers have offered the Bears $5 million per season to keep Jay Cutler.

Don’t you mean Pete Finebaum?

This is bullshit. We all know that even if the coach “bans” Saban from campus, Saban will still get his recruits. I’m sure they can have strippers and prostitutes brought to an off-campus hotel, or something. Or was that not Alabama football? I can’t keep all of the scandals straight anymore. (Yes, I know it was…

Man, that’s some seriously ridiculous cheating. Harbaugh is an evil genius, and I hate him.

So, interesting point there...Does that also avoid scholarship limits? I feel like that would make this even more shady and underhanded. Like a bunch of kids get free tuition, while the other kids (whose parents are not hired by the University) get all of the scholarships.

I know that the Big Ten gets tired of being told that they’re not as good as the SEC, but come on now. Between Urban Meyer and Jim Harbaugh, they’re quickly making a case for most assholes in head coaching jobs.

I would pay MORE money to live next door to a home with an airplane or airplanes in the driveway, because airplanes fucking rule! I hope all of these homeowners lose property value now that nobody wants to live near assholes.

Congratulations, Mr. Nolan. This is the first article of yours that I’ve ever read and agree with every last point that you make. When I saw that it was you who penned this fine piece of literature, I was legitimately waiting for your argument that all airline passengers should unionize, but was pleasantly surprised…

He can run again in 2020, right? As far as I recall, the only stipulation was that it can’t be more than 2 consecutive terms. You think he wants to come clean up another mess, though? The Bush messes turned the man gray, for the love of God. Cleaning up after Trump might kill him!!!

I don’t see a problem here. I think that you’ve finally found the solution to global warming!!

You have a really good way with words. Whenever you run for something, let me know. You have my vote.

Well, that’s your opinion, and you’re more than welcome to it. I hope that you’re wrong, for all of our sake. I truly believe that people either voted against Hillary because Fox News convinced them that she was a criminal, or…

Extremely valid and well-written points. I don’t know how to fix it, either. I guess the first question is WHY has partisanship skyrocketed? My honest assessment is that facebook and social media are at the heart of the issue. 20 years ago, talking about politics was taboo. You had your opinions and mostly kept them…

You can blame Crosscheck if you want, that’s fine. Blame the DNC. Blame pissed-off Bernie Sanders supporters. Blame the general populace for being so indifferent about both candidates that turnout was lower than the 3 previous elections. But don’t assume that I’m neither aware that being a young, white male affords me…

Dammit, Patrick. The correct spelling of "Dammit" is "Dammit", not "Damnit". What is with this website???

You’re clearly right that strategy #1 does not work, because if it did, we wouldn’t be in this mess. As much as everyone hated Trump, I don’t know how many people truly believed that he would burn the country down as quickly and efficiently as he is. As for strategy #2, I don’t believe that you need to sell out the…

I mean, thanks for reading, but are you sure that you actually read anything that I wrote? I’m not making the argument that any of this is a fad. If you’ll start from the beginning, you’ll see that a point was made that Obama got what he wanted without obstruction. Someone asked the point to be clarified. I clarified…

Well put.

Absolutely correct. Right now, both parties are in a race to the bottom. The Democrats burned their own party to the ground, but Donald Trump is burning his party to the ground, and taking with him every person who supports any of his bullshit.
