This is America and it’s a work in progress. It has never lived up to its ideals. 

Ok, let’s entertain the idea seriously for a moment.

I can’t even.

The two threats to truth in America are Fox News and school vouchers.

I was puzzled over this too,until my wife explained it to me. It’s actually a move of high character.

This is a really well phrased question. The point is that both passive and aggressive are unhelpful.

We all know who made the emperor’s clothes.

What’s hard is that when I look at the good things that can be traced back to his actions, and specifically his particular personal bravery, and then I look at how much my parents’ generation hated him, I feel like his fate was kind of a tragedy.

peak whiteness lol I love that

Hear hear. This plus CTE should be enough to kill college sports.

How do we get rid of charter schools? How do we get all the government school money actually put into government schools?

Huh, video won’t play for me. I just get “this video is not available.”

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he was still one of our greatest presidents. His fuck up in Vietnam left a huge mess, and that side of the scale is heavy. But the good he did with his Great Society is still with us, and is a legacy much worth praise. When he was wrong he was very wrong. But when he was right he was…

This is extremely disappointing to me as a fan of Roy Thomas.

I’m very interested in the point you’re making about the anti-abortion movement being rooted in pro-segregationism. I don’t see the connection and I believe you that there is one. Can you spell it out? Not a troll honest!

I’m curious about whether or not he actually has them fooled. Certainly there are huge swaths of idiots who find it plausible that Trump holds the same opinions as them. But Bannon’s no dope. I have a feeling he’s fooling Trump more than Trump’s fooling him.

Here’s the thing I don’t see anybody asking or really contemplating: is it possible that there is game design here that won’t be evident for a long time?

He isn’t. Trump wasn’t elected president. “Trump” was elected president.

Ah, but the white-ists have a plan for that. Remember the population ratios under slavery?

I’m a liberal accidentally living in South Carolina, and I feel very proud of the things Lindsey Graham has done recently.
