    America is great and everything is NOT Pres. Trump's fault thread

    The New York Times is not anywhere close to failing. Just another lie Trump supporters eat up. Its stock price has doubled since Trump took office and it continues to show healthy quarterly earnings. Furthermore, it currently has 4 million subscribers (most of any US daily newspaper and more...

    Suspicious packages sent to Obama, Clinton, and CNN Offices

    No Nazis that I know of. I would guess there are a few Xenophobes and alt right sympathizers amongst the Trump supporters that post here. There was a QAnon fan here, which is an even nuttier version of the alt right, not sure he’s still around though.

    Suspicious packages sent to Obama, Clinton, and CNN Offices

    It would be awesome if there were some actual uber leftists here. Like a Marxist that’s studied Das Kapital, or a Chomsky style libertarian socialist, or maybe a member of the Democratic Socialists of America to explain why Bernie Sanders isn’t really much of a socialist. I would love to hear...

    Suspicious packages sent to Obama, Clinton, and CNN Offices

    I had a friend like that in college. Loved to argue and take outlandish positions on every subject imaginable. After graduation and just before he was to head back to New York he finally admitted it was all just a game, a form of entertainment, and a boost to his ego to see if he could hold his...

    Culturally Insensitive man bets a million dollars...

    Bipartisan feels out of place the way you’re using it. Just a heads up.

    Leonard Cohen on Kanye West

    No, babe, the fact is, you don’t get to decide who is a Republican or a conservative. Someone who has mainstream conservative values and votes and supports Republicans, as this CNN commentator has done, is actually a Republican. You don’t get to RINO her out of the Party because she is not...

    Leonard Cohen on Kanye West

    I think you meant "are not" targeted. With which i would agree they are often targeted by the left. My only point was that, in this particular case, the person who used the “token negro” phrase is a Republican. But you go ahead and pretend you didn’t assume she was a Democrat.

    Leonard Cohen on Kanye West

    You’re right, you didn’t make it partisan. The poster I quoted did, which is why he was the one I quoted. Both commentators on CNN did use the word negro, but the one that said “token negro” the phrase at issue here and the one that has so many twitter-bated, is a Republican. The Democrat, on...

    Leonard Cohen on Kanye West

    Except, in this case it was a Republican not a Democrat. So, to recap, a conservative Republican commentator on CNN calls Kanye a token negro which somehow morphs into liberal CNN calling him the n-word.

    Rate Harpring

    I give him a not so solid eight. I mostly watch with the sound down though so I’m basing my vote off facial expressions and post-game comments.

    Donald Fires FBI Director who's investigating Russian Election Hacking

    Agreed, I don’t like media bias either! Virtually all mainstream media has a conservative or corporate bias. Really is discouraging.

    Supreme Court Justice Kennedy to Retire

    Kind of a smug attitude there. From my experience those who get involved, supporting or volunteering on behalf of candidates or political parties are not sheep or pawns; more often than not they are thoughtful and committed citizens.

    Supreme Court Justice Kennedy to Retire

    It’s over. Flake and Collins now have the cover they needed. Kavanaugh will be confirmed this weekend and the ramifications of having a mini-Trump on the Supreme Court will be felt for 20 to 30 years.

    Supreme Court Justice Kennedy to Retire

    Thanks for the links to QAnon and “The Awakening” in your signature. I first thought it had to be a parody of extreme Trump supporters, but apparently it's for real.

    Supreme Court Justice Kennedy to Retire

    Jazzfanz is a quiet walk in the park compared to the non-stop vitriol on most political forums. If you get stomping out the door mad by what you read here it’s probably a sign you’re taking yourself too seriously or, in the case of rare144, taking QAnon seriously.

    Donald Fires FBI Director who's investigating Russian Election Hacking

    Got to buckle up there. Letting a standard issue liberal Democrat’s postings on a message board affect you so detrimentally is just weak-minded. I can appreciate Thriller’s commitment though and if he is looking to get paid by Shareblue there is a current opening: https://shareblue.com/careers/

    Supreme Court Justice Kennedy to Retire

    Kavanaugh was nominated July 10. Ford first made the accusation when she wrote to Feinstein July 30. Confirmation hearings didn’t start until September 4, so not exactly the very last possible moment.

    White House Discord: Bob Woodward Book, NYT Op-Ed

    Plus it’s not the FBI coordinating leaks but rather two rogue agents. It is true though, history will judge their actions. It was, after all, a rogue FBI special agent (Mark Felt/Deep Throat) who coordinated leaks to Woodward and Bernstein (really just Woodward) and brought down Nixon over...

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (democratic socialist) wins NY primary

    If they hold both the House and Senate it would be a huge upset, euphoric Republicans would probably pass anything Trump wants, although knowing now what he wants is beyond me, probably beyond Trump as well.

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (democratic socialist) wins NY primary

    It’s true the midterms this November will be in large part a referendum on Trump, but Republicans keeping control of the House is far from a foregone conclusion. Here’s 538’s latest forecasting model: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2018-midterm-election-forecast/house/?ex_cid=rrpromo
