God damn. I keep thinking Trump will be easy to defeat, but then I remember how self-destructive the Democrats can be. I was super excited about Elisabeth Warren until her idiotic DNA stunt. I refuse to support her now, because, above all else, we need a Democrat who understands that one does not give bullies what…

Have you ever read what John Adams and Thomas Jefferson had to say about each other? That’s a fun read. Or, more readily understood by your students perhaps, the fact that Alexander Hamilton was killed in a duel by the VP of the United States, Aaron Burr? That would kind of be the equivalent of Mike Pence killing a…

I don’t want to live in a world where I can’t make fun of raging hypocritical asshole closet-queens.

Lots of top coaches jump back into the coaching sphere soon after getting canned. Hell, Beaudreau was with another team the next day. If Q has the itch, he’s gonna scratch it. He’s guaranteed $6 million total salary, no matter who it’s coming from.

Sure, but once the primaries are over, Republicans are good at sucking it up, putting their differences aside and standing behind their man (it’s always a man) because they have more to gain that way. Realpolitik is one thing Republicans do well.

Hoo boy, they are really taking a Flyer on this one.

Oh, is it tiresome to point out the left’s self-defeating, self-cannibalizing and counter-productive tendencies? I’m so sorry, it must be so awful for you. But you know what’s even more tiresome? Republicans getting elected because the left is too busy eating its own to realize there will never be a perfect candidate…

I’ve been hearing about this young up and comer from the Midwest. He might be our only hope.

This is an excellent point. As nice as it would be to embrace “when they go low, we go high”, the fact is that strategy has not worked in delivering actual benefits to people. We see this in places like Michigan and North Carolina, where even when Republicans lose they try to pass laws preventing others from…

That was such a bizarre name confluence, lol

This is an excellent point. Religion—even among different flavors of Christianity—is also still a big thing. JFK being Catholic was a pretty big deal, so much so that he remains the ONLY Catholic president. People were convinced that he’d take orders from the pope. I also remember seeing an exit poll interview with a…

The better question is why would Quenneville want to come coach when he’s still getting paid big bucks from the Hawks to not coach?

Nobody is making jokes about Lindsey Graham being gay. We make jokes about his hypocrisy, sliminess, and how he backstabbed the Keibler Elf to try and get his job. 

I think I’ve diagnosed the problem with this hockey team: They apparently think they’re playing football.

I mean, they are Democrats, did you have any doubts? This is the party that lost to Trump.

Sigh. The Democrats are going to fuck 2020 up in spectacular new ways, aren’t they?

I, for one, am just glad I no longer have to worry about getting my Hakstols and my Hextalls mixed up.

Hakstol on the whole had piloted the team through three seasons on the edge of relevancy . . .

You mean a Hail Gritty.

He was healthy & up to speed the past month & this team fucking sucked. It needs a lot more than a healthy goaltender to be in the playoff push. It needs secondary scoring, 3-4 competent defensemen and a new GM before it would be back in the playoff push.
