I mean look I am totally fine with saying those people should be dropped from Medicaid. Seems totally reasonable and easily accomplished by having the state lottery board notify the state medicaid board. So I mean what one line should have covered that? Not to mention did we really need six pages to cover the very…

My child is a type 1 diabetic. Her insulin alone is $900/month until we meet out deductible. So what we pay that the one time and then we’re cool or does it cap out at the cost of an iphone? I for one am definitely warming to this “invest the cost of an iphone” healthcare plan! Thank god they finally rolled it out…

Facebook calls uses the designations: public, closed, secret. That is likely why they called it a secret group. I’m in a secret group for atheists in the deep south. It’s not really just private. You can’t find it anywhere. It’s not listed on our pages. You have to be added. It’s really beyond just private which is…

Also IQ tests are not the race blind measures we’ve been led to believe. There are many reasons this would be a terrible idea and not that far from literacy tests of the past. Now I’d love some sort of a “do you understand that Donald Trump is going to take away your insurance?” “Do you know that Obamacare and the ACA…

No I didn’t read the article because this article didn’t hint that it offered a clarified timeline from the one Kimmel himself had given. I see what you are getting at now. I thought you were asking why Kimmel hadn’t immediately jumped on stage himself since he did know there was a problem.

That was well after the original announcement was made. In this article you can see him sitting next to Matt Damon when the first guy says “btw we lost.”

I’m 42. LOL But I’ve seen some of the original stuff and then this seemed different in tone and some of the body language etc.

I’m pretty sure it was a joke. In the past he has done some deep thinking things and this seemed to be poking fun at himself.

Well Kimmel was in the audience right next to Matt Damon. So no he could not have done that. He had no idea anything was wrong right up until the La La Land producer said it. We’ve got pictures of his reaction face in the audience next to Matt Damon when he says it. So if the article said that then the article was…

I’d say it’s the opposite of that. They feel they earned theirs. It’s all the other (read black/brown) people who are lazy and don’t deserve their “handouts”. Plus that Lyndon Johnson quote about convince the lowliest white man he’s better than a black man and he’ll vote for you. Also the temporarily embarrassed…

Yep this. Am I surprised? No. Did I anticipate it coming out? No. I did not anticipate the racist good ole boy from Alabama was involved with the Russians. Tons of other bad people, sure. But not the Russians.

Absolutely. I live in a southern state. I have family members who are in that white lower class (and I mean very very low; no education, no prospects, could not survive without public assistance). They voted for Trump. Sorry, you’re stupid.

Yep Franken’s question I’ll grant them that he could split that hair. Franken was asking about the campaign not Session’s himself. However in his answer Sessions’ voluntarily vouched for the campaign’s purity by using himself in an example so arguably he removed the wiggle room Franken’s wording gave him. However the…

Yep. I didn’t know until I read her statement. I already thought it was totally reasonble to her to fight back on this but then when I read that part I was like “no wonder she’s pissed. Here she is leading up to a historic night for her and what are we talking about instead of her accomplishment? A nasty man’s petty…

I agree that of all the things that happened related to this meeting this is lowest down. Yes she looks inappropriate. Yes Obama would have been trashed for it. Yes that’s a bunch of bullshit. And lastly yes I think there is some intentionality to the whole thing, but ultimately not the biggest horror of this shit…

She couldn’t do that because that’s where the official photographer is standing. She just had to get a shot to post to her own personal social media to show how close she is to the president no matter what the news says about her being on the outs. Otherwise I agree with other comments that there is some intentional…

It’s not like Congress is investigating this. The Oscars are investigating what happened and how they can make sure it doesn’t happen again. It’s not as though the same organization has decided to investigate one but not the other.

Many abusers were abused as children. However most people who were abused don’t go on to be abusers. People sometimes act like those are reflexively true, but they are very different.

When you break it down by education the stats support your point. 72% of uneducated white men, 62% of uneducated white women voted for him. They were his best demographics except for evangelicals.

Where does he think New England is?
