Lying about blowjobs has a long history of being a legitimate comedic device. It also has a long history as a political philosophy. In fact, I challenge you to come up with a better definition of Democracy than "lying about blowjobs."

Oh, it's just a joke. Actually, it's the first time I've been impressed by anything Madonna did in 30 years.

Wow, you REALLY talk about Tim Graham a lot.

Yes, they will be burned by their own stubbornness.

I see what you're saying, but I think that Republicans have eroded their credibility a bit as far as their ability to oppose a nomination, even if it's someone very far left. Even though their reasons for opposing the two nominees would be different, it's still somewhat a "crying wolf" situation and the public will have lost some patience with these Senators who already are viewed as untrustworthy. That's why I think the Republicans have dug themselves a deep hole and also why I'm surprised the Democrats have not used this more to their advantage. Maybe you're right, it will show up more in the next couple weeks.

Apart from the question of whether it's the (R-majority) Senate duty to "do its job," I think the Republicans have played their hand badly. They would have done well to take the relatively moderate choice offered to them. If Hillary becomes President and nothing was ever done about Garland and she decides to pick a different nominee, then that's reasonable. How could it be anything other than sour grapes for Republicans to whine about it that point?

Yes, I'm resurrecting an old thread... Is anyone else surprised that Democrats are not playing the Merrick Garland card more aggressively? I would think it could be effective to hit it hard in Senate races. Or is it happening, but only in isolated areas that I'm not seeing? I expected it to get a lot of bandwidth in the pres. race too, but it hasn't.

It's silly that the voting starts so early.

It's surprisingly great. Really fun. Probably my favorite box set since Nuggets. Thank you, that is all. Have a nice day.

Trump has a massive blind spot. He truly does not see that stuff as that big of a deal. As we speak, Trump thinks he can talk himself out of this and that a week from now all this sexual assault stuff will be replaced by very very good things!

It's absolutely what is going on. A vote for Trump is a vote for crazy. I think that's been clear since the beginning. It's like the old Asteroids video game...when you start to get panicky, you press the "Hyperspace" button because [random/unknown] seems better than [this **** right now].

I haven't watched it yet, but I plan to. I thought I'd wait until a few episodes are available. My initial thoughts from seeing a couple previews and from what little I've read is that I won't love it. In the words of Peter Griffin, "it insists upon itself." Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised though, especially if I keep my expectations low. I feel like whenever AI gets a treatment in popular culture, it usually turns out half-baked and boring.

I happen to love the movie Broken Flowers. That's the first time I became aware of Jeffrey Wright and thought he's really good.

Maybe time to change the thread title to just "Trump alone"

I actually kind of like Kiss and I've seen them live. I just don't have patience for that cheesy crowd work stuff. It reminds me of a lame meeting at work when somebody goes, "let's go around the room and have everybody talk a little bit about what they do..." Makes me want to sneak out of there. Is that the famous tour where Kiss had turnstiles of hot girls and were trying to get the guys in Rush laid, but Geddy, Neil and Alex were too busy doing crossword puzzles and ironing their silk robes or something? (I'm not making fun--I like Rush. It's just a funny story.)

That's a good one! Many are popping into my head now: Loser - Beck Creep - Radiohead Red Right Hand - Nick Cave Buddy Holly - Weezer Anthem - Leonard Cohen Don't Sweat the Technique - Eric B & Rakim Protect Ya Neck - Wu Tang Needle in the Hay - Elliot Smith ...plus lots of stuff from Pavement, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Butthole Surfers and more I'm not thinking of

Did Paul Stanley ask the crowd to shout and then say, "I can't hear you!" Then, did he invite one side of the crowd to try to shout louder than the other side? So lame.

Haha, thank you for that. If I were completely civil, I wouldn't stand a chance over here.

Close. I understand the dogma. I just don't give a **** about dogma.

I have the Amazon fire stick and it works very well. Super fast and responsive. And it has an app for NFL Sunday ticket. That's how I watch Bills games. No complaints at all. I've used a smart blu ray player before too. That worked ok, but the Fire Stick works much better.

I should have added that there are medical circumstances where I would consider terminating later.

I think you're right about that.
