I like this very much

I tend to agree, as long as the fed gov will recognize those marriages as defined and performed by the individual states. In other words, as long as something like DOMA isn’t resurrected. EDIT: I see you just made the same point in another thread

USA vs. Mexico Friday (11/11) night at 7:45 pm ET, on Fox Sports 1 Word is that Tim Howard has reclaimed the starting GK spot. 18 year old Christian Pulisic should start. He's been playing very well in the Bundesliga and is creating a ton of buzz. This should be a very good game. (and please, please, no political stuff in here. It's ok if you make fun of soccer, call me names, make jokes about my mother--just, please, no politics)

Wolf's at the big board! Wolf's at the big board!

It's gonna be a big night for Wolf Blitzer. He gets to go over to the big board every 5 minutes and read all the numbers verbatim, including the actual total numbers of votes for each candidate in individual counties.

mmm...Chimay

Damn

They will both lose!

Too bad it's completely false. http://www.snopes.com/clinton-paid-beyonce-and-jay-z/ (sorry to interrupt the internet superstar hate orgy)

Reminds me of some lyrics I really like… “I’ve been working at the airport bar It’s like Christmas in a submarine Wings and brandy on a winter’s night I guess you wouldn’t call it a scene” (from “I’m Getting Back Into Getting Back Into You” by the Silver Jews)

I'd be good with that.

That's a really interesting distinction. I guess I'm partial to the practical hypocrisy. It's kind of like slapstick. I know it's more lowbrow humor, but it gets me.

Granted. My take on this (and again, I don't consider this issue to be very significant) is that having ID to vote is a perfectly reasonable expectation. There is long-standing tradition of it not being required in some places. To change that, you have to say this new requirement will go into effect at some point (2 years? 4 years?) in the future. This point has been politicized. While the left is ridiculous to resist the requirement, the right has tried to play it to their advantage as well. The argument that voter fraud is a big problem has been blown out of proportion. If voter fraud is the issue, then the point of emphasis should be on making the voter rolls as accurate as possible.

Yes, of course. Everyone has to take these things into account. In politics, it should be understood that things are being spun constantly. But, if something is funny, I'm gonna admit it's funny.

Well, I'm not necessarily against that. I know that hockey fans hate ties. I just object to that extra point being given out and a tie (overtime loss) being worth half as much as a win. I'd like to see a win being worth more in relation to a tie.

It's a good question. I think the white supremacists are more dangerous. The well-intentioned idiots are just idiots. The white supremacists are active and potentially violent. I understand the point about the dangers of soft racism, but don't see it as pervasive as some do. That video was edited to make a point. Not all young people are that stupid.

Thank you, you condescending prick.

False equivalency. A handful of idiots cherry picked for a video is not the same thing as white supremacy. Yes, it identifies some hypocritical thinking that exists within a liberal agenda. That’s why I don’t subscribe to any party or ideology. They all have problems like this. Besides, there is some truth to the right using voter id laws to their benefit. It’s a tool that Republicans have used and the argument about “voter fraud” is a red herring. In certain states, it’s an issue with Native American and other minorities where stricter voter ID is a way to tweak the numbers in favor of the Republicans. Do you dispute this? I’m not saying it’s a huge deal. I understand, each side plays the game to try to come out ahead. This is just one (minor) battleground. And Yes, it has been politicized and many liberals are guilty of falsely making a big “racist” deal about it.

Easy now. I said I agree with the point, not that I want to sign up for the lifetime membership.

#23 Witchcraft! That list is really ridiculous, insular, paranoid and laughable. There are good arguments to be made against Hillary. Nonsense like this doesn't do the right any favors. It just makes them look desperate, reactionary and childish.

I agree. I hate the way the NHL treats ties. Playing for a regulation tie gets rewarded with an extra point being handed out. That's stupid. I like the way soccer does it. Three points for a win, one point for a tie.

It's true. It's a good video and it rightly exposes the idiocy and bigotry of a lot of people.

No, it's funny.

No? Ok, thanks for letting me know.

Really? You're not familiar with the whole thing about not renting to black people in his buildings in the 70's? He was sued by the Justice Dept. and he settled.
