    actually, it is not. That's the whole point. It's his face, unfortunately for him, but the picture does not belong to him.

    I'm not sure what you mean. I'm not suggesting a strategy. I'm suggesting an action. There is no amount of gun death that is acceptable.

    I'm one of the crazy prohibitionists. Repeal the 2nd Amendment. Fuck guns. Save lives not political careers. Why is this even a debate? It's literally the worst thing about America and the only thing that exists only in this country.

    That man thought he was so incredibly clever with that "wake up call ... dialed the wrong number" line.

    Well, no, I suppose I do not. I know that (A and B) -- which is to say the guilt or innocence question -- can only be answered after trial, but the nature of the allegation should not require a trial to answer. And it is that question that you so smugly and glibly brushed off by Biff Tannen because you are making assumptions about everyone not taking you at your word. Your argument is not logical and is in fact the one that is circular as shown.

    The only assumption I'm making is that a prosecutor is charging a defendant with a crime. Is there something else that a prosecutor could be doing? You are arguing that because he might not have committed a crime he should have protections of his office (even if that protection only extends to where the question of guilt is determined). What I am pointing out is that if he is guilty then it could not possibly have been within the scope of his duties of office. Therefore moving the question is moot. A = he performed an action B = an action is a crime C = an action is within scope of official duties D = federal court is correct forum E = state court is correct forum You are stating that: If C then D to determine if A and B, but of course if A and B then NOT C. So by stipulating C, the question of if A and B is moot. Therefore the question of "if A and B" has primacy and therefore E to determine if (A and B ), NOT A, or (A and C).

    For some reason you think I'm arguing from a presumption of guilt. That is not accurate. I'm simply pointing out that the question of guilt for committing a crime cannot be dependent upon whether the act was an official duty or not. A crime cannot be an official duty. So the production should have to prove he did what they allege but he should not be allowed any protection of his office.

    I just don't see how organizing a meeting explicitly to defraud the American people could fall within the scope of Chief of Staff duties any more than arranging a get away car for a liquor store robbery would be. Knowingly aiding and abetting a crime simply cannot be a duty of a US federal government official. Not that it doesn't happen, but if it does and they get caught, the "just doing my job" defense simply cannot be applied. And I do understand that the issue being raised is not about guilt/innocence but about the proper jurisdiction/venue what have you. But the same logic applies. If this was done with the intent of committing or abetting a crime, which is what is alleged, then it cannot be considered part of his official duties. It just can't.

    Is it right to phrase this as the Chief of Staff acts as an agent of the President? And if so, is it also right to recognize that not everything the President engages in during his/her time in office is done under the auspices of the office of the President? If the sitting president is in fact able to act not as the President but as a citizen or as a candidate, then clearly the Chief of Staff would also be able to act as Chief of Staff or as a private citizen. If POTUS asked the Chief of Staff to arrange a get away car for his planned liquor store robbery, would that be under the Chief of Staff's purview? This argument seems ridiculous on its face.

    what about one that bans people for posting x.com links?
  13. SilasCoade
    @immamac can we get a script that just automatically changes x.com links to twitter.com links?

    Same.

    Did they have work done? Those pics look worse than the drunken racist assault video, which is pretty rare

    Not sure if it's more accurate to say he picked up a bad habit or added to his pull up game, but on two of those jumpers (~25s and ~48s) he gathers with the left foot forward and has to twist his hips as he raises up to get the natural shooting alignment for a right hander. He kind of uses it in the pump fake up and under move he did on KD too. Don't remember seeing that from him before.
