Anathema-

Oh I'm sorry I didn't realize he caught up to party politics last week. I think the clear reading of the 2016 campaign would show a shameful lack of support but be that as it may there's still more being demanded of Clinton (not running) than Sanders (actively running). She didn't immediately commit to support, same thing Sanders did to her all the way until the convention voted, but it's Clinton needs to unify? Give me a break.

Bernie, an actual candidate, has not committed to supporting the nominee if it's not him but it's Clinton who everyone is taking about. This whole damn forum needs to check itself.

Which option means brokered convention

It would appear she is, in the sense that she's trying to be aggressively non-partisan. She hasn't done anything so far that seems like the obvious wrong call. She has a weak hand and has still changed narratives and won concessions. Be that as it may, the only place that "gee golly that's something I would consider if only the house put it in the articles" gains purchase is in the minds of people who have already acquitted trump. It's bad faith on its face and only gets worse as you unravel the details. Saying that you'll only consider the evidence of an investigation that was materially obstructed by the defendant when you have the power to demand more evidence is nothing more than an excuse, a vain hope in dodging pressure to make a hard choice. She wants us all to pretend the choice to acquit is easy but it's based on nonsense that falls apart in a light breeze.

The articles they passed has enough to legitimize removal. The only thing actually being discussed is how obviously shameless the gop will be.

Which helps sell the idea. It's not about winning elections and frankly it shouldn't be.

Mandate it by law.

Except when we try to think of a single situation where complaining about sexism works out, examples are sorely lacking. I mean just look at the reaction here. Assuming Warren released it is assuming too much. Maybe she did, but I can't assume that she would be so totally clueless as to not see that it would backfire.

I think it's naive to assume the Warren campaign is who leaked this.

Kal and I both have a weaponized dryness to our humor.

Benghazi was because the Republicans were desperate to legitimize Romney's political attacks of Obama while the attacks were under way, which was seen as a terrible faux pax.

Cr-yikes

When a successive series of strained coincidences all line up it's not strange to wonder if they are really coincidences at all. "Coincidences take a lot of planning."

Like I said in the other thread, the shoe's on the other foot now. Now Iran has inadvertently shot down a passenger plane thanks to the fog of war. Their response will be telling.

And like every phrase that white people appropriate from black people they never cared to understand what it really means and are happy to continue using it incorrectly.

It seems like Iran made the closest thing to a good faith mistake you can make in a hot zone. Strange how the tables have turned. The fact that there was a hot zone at all is not something I'd look at Iran to take the blame over, though. It's good that cooler heads seem to ultimately prevailed but there would be no conflict without trump's actions and the conflict that arose from those actions was entirely foreseeable. A smaller scale version of these events is how people get locked up for felony murder.

No way that's what his beard would look like though

Some of that is already pre-filed but it would be great to hear a commitment.

Look. Are we fucked from the climate? I don't know. What I do know is I'm having empanadas for dinner. Humanity is good.

positive thinking

The face of a man who longs for the simpler times of chem trails and lizard people.

Let's just get Mike Tracey back. Maybe he was Mike Tracey

No not "lol" he's exactly right. White superiority theory isn't that white people are the best at everything, it's that they're the best at leading.

Look we've got Kansas and Arkansas and that's all the confusion we have the mental space to accommodate.
