  1. Age shouldn't be a consideration?
  2. I like Bernie and I'm glad he's made the party more progressive. I'll vote for him if I think he gives Democrats the best chance to take down Trump. I just have my doubts that our very diverse party is going to choose an old white guy to be that person. If he is, then Bernie 2020!
  3. I hear you. But I'd much rather have a society where people can spread misinformation without recourse than a society where an individual or entity with deep pockets can chill speech they dislike by malicious litigation.
  4. Maybe this is petty, but I think Klobuchar's super midwest accent is going to be an impediment to her attracting support. Maybe it's just me, but it's difficult to listen to her speak.
  5. What's his point? That Trump and Democrats can or should never agree on a foreign policy issue? Is Maduro being a corrupt evil dictator causing starvation for millions in dispute? You'd prefer that continue? Until when or what point? I guess I don't get your contrarian position.
  6. I likewise don't feel good about it, but I believe action is necessary with millions of their people literally starving. However, there will absolutely be unintended consequences.
  7. This is a good step forward for Venezuela. Hopefully the situation doesn't devolve into mass killings by Maduro's gov/military.
  8. I likewise am not very well versed in the Venezuela situation, but what I've read today in the NYT and elsewhere is that Maduro was not legitimately elected and this new guy is a more legitimate leader based on the corruption of Maduro's election. If the existing government is not legitimate, then there cannot really be a coup. I despise Trump, but I think this is a good step forward for the long suffering Venezuelan people.
  9. That was the most bizarre part for me aside from the confrontation. It's MLK weekend and you're doing loud wild chants at the base of the LM? A large group of private school white kids wearing MAGA hats? That was a disgusting display regardless of the confrontation.
  10. I haven't cared for her since she jumped into the mattress girl issue. We should of course take sexual abuse allegations seriously, but Gillibrand passionately took sides before the evidence was hashed out. Colombia ultimately took the guy's side. That showed a total lack of judgment on her part and a bizarre political craveness.
  11. As a former criminal defense attorney, this sort of bullshit enrages me like few other things.
  12. The Calvillos family (Soluna & Mirasol) sold it some time ago. The quality has gone down since. Speaking of, Soluna and Mirasol are both amazing and deserve top billing in this type of list.
  13. To admonish myself and my post, my gay friends would think her dancing was fabulous. So I revise my post to ask, You know how I know you're a prude douche?
  14. Republicans thought this was a negative view of her? You know how I know you're gay? (NTTIAWWT).
  15. At first glance I thought you said bizarro potato, which would have made sense.
  16. Is this an oh so clever allusion to Bush Sr who just passed away? If so, very classy.
  17. Hey Donald, out of respect for the Bush family and on their behalf, go fuck yourself.
  18. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2018-college-football-predictions/?ex_cid=rrpromo This was probably already addressed, but 538 projects Texas would have a 53% chance of making the playoffs if OSU loses to NW, Georgia loses to Bama, UCF loses to Memphis, Washington loses to Utah, and of course if we beat OU. Is that completely absurd?
  19. Yep. These are bi-partisan wins no matter your state or district.
  20. Even if he had not resigned, being speaker would have made it nearly impossible for him to actively run for president where he would be far more useful to the country.
