Probably Davis then, and moreso recently.

I don't like Scottish Narnia dwellers

MacDonald seems best up to the challenge.

The Republican's problem with minorities has less to do with any instances of race-baiting than it does to racial insensitivity and just a general cluelessness about minority experience. Democratic race-baiting meanwhile is more often than not an intramural sport.  For the most part the partisan racial disparity is a matter of things like ideology, economics, history and geography.

Just gonna leave this here.

what wolfentoad said and did was awful, but I'm also a little weirded out that there is a blog about it.

Robertson is a HP, but he is correct on marijuana. 

considering how often he is wrong about things, he needs to smoke more then.

"Move it in just a little closer."
"The umbrella, sir?"
"No, the cloud."

and here added estimates for the other states.

Filibuster reform should be all or nothing... quit with the stupid nuclear options just to get what you want only when you think it's important.  They should require actual filibusters to be a filibuster, and that'd solve everything.

The "nuclear option" isn't a type of filibuster reform, it's a procedural way for Reid to pass real reform (requiring a spoken filibuster, like you suggested) that only requires 51 votes to pass. It's kind of a stupid name, because only in the US Senate would something passing by a majority be called "nuclear."

I understand what the nuclear option is.  But the way to go about not having your nominees filibustered is not to say, "Well, nominees should be an exception to the filibuster rule."

Why not?  A nominee is fundamentally different from a piece of legislation.  For example, the ability to pressure the majority to allow an amendment to a bill be considered prior to a vote on that bill is one of the most important benefits of the filibuster.

Mecham?  seriously?  cause this election didn't have quite enough crazy?

Browne I guess.

Why is my next region change 17-Aug-13? As far as I know, I've never changed regions before.

Because your initial registration counts as a change.

Odd. That didn't used to be the generally accepted interpretation of Article V.   

[especially considering how many people on here are big lovers of Eugene Debs]

How is Lenin losing?

My feelings exactly, especially considering how many people on here are big lovers of Eugene Debs.

Anyway, if it's a US election, Thatcher/Thatcher.  If it's a global one, Thatcher/Lenin.

the crazy thing is, Lenin's actually winning.

You can't rule against somebody because you don't like them, you all should know this.

     Yeah, abusing jurisprudence to hurt companies that we may, even with very good reason, dislike is not the sort of behavior we should be encouraging out of our highest court.

Absolutely.

Still, I disagree with this decision, or at least the legislation upon which it is based.  A seed is self-replicating by nature, and a company should not be able to use the law to prohibit this.

People who believe in Benghazi believe CBS News works for the White House.  You couldn't convince them this happened if you actually showed them it happened.

True, there's not much reasoning you can do with the 49% who think that ACORN stole the 2012 election.

No way 49% of Americans or any significant subset of the population believes that.  Polls that ask leading questions end up with these nonsense results.

Johnson agrees to a radio broadcasted debate with Underwood.  While there is no clear winner, both candidates come across as capable and their positives are enhanced.  Still, many Northerners are hesitant to support Johnson, though Humphrey helps him carry MN and RI, and comes close in NY and MA.



Underwood/Dirksen  354  52%
Johnson/Humphrey  183  47%

Bush/Quayle: 304, 52%
Bentsen/Graham: 234, 47%

Whole heartedly endorsed. If I were a Mideast voter, 1st or 2nd preference, for sure.

Thank you Guvna!

Also thanks to the Federalist Party of Atlasia for their endorsement!

My guess is that the rise has been primarily anthropogenic, but that we are also be seeing significant negative feedback, along with the possibility of an underlying cooling trend.

The Sierra Club was in favor of limiting immigration in the 70s and 80s for the sake of "population stabilization."  In 1996 they adopted neutrality on the issue.  Now they oppose things like a border wall due to interrupting animal habitats, but there are still some members who are immigration restrictionists and  make efforts from time to time to move the organization in that direction.

2. It's not surprising at all that neither Marokai nor Antonio bothered to make any sort of substantial argument.

What?!? MB itemized, link by link, statement by statement, direct compelling documentation of EVERY allegation. How much more 'substantive' an argument can one present??

I mean this litterally and without an ounce of hyperbole: WTF are you talking about?

I think he was talking about Marokai and Antonio's statements about him.    In any case, this argument has run its course so don't feel like you need to resurrect it.

Because A Person's critique is very much based on facts and logical argumentation...

I think baseless personal attacks are deserving of a bit more scrutiny than other types of statements. 

Click on blue words, it leads to various posts providing a base.

read that more carefully. I wasn't talking about anything to do with koenkai. 

would it have hurt to wait until the end of the election to announce this?

I suppose the goal was creating havoc to force Mideast to correct this, instead of putting it on the backburner.

he would have accomplished that just by voting.

But that's just because I'm a horrible moderate hero with no controversial opinions.
