I think plenty of people are aware of those concepts, but associating them to a particular amendment?

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 30 September 2008 22:15 (fifteen years ago) link

How about prohibiting the U.S. or any specific state to pay off any debts or obligations incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States? Surely everybody remembers that!

This is perhaps one of the least auspicious days in recent history to entertain such an attitude.

14th possibly too generally worded & lacks a defining catchphrase? Versus e.g.: Freedom of speech! Right to bear arms! Trial by jury! Abolition of slavery! Presidential disabilities

Man, it's like when Punk Rock Broke in 1991. You don't HAVE to know how to sing when you sing, man.

College Radio
Indie rock
DIY

We need a Kathleen Hanna to fight back against the history class wang contest.

The idea of Palin gone JD Samson fills me with horror and glee

Mackro Mackro, Tuesday, 30 September 2008 22:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Also Palin may fall afoul of XIV.3 for giving "succor" to insurgents and seditionaries eg. AIP.

Her most ardent supporters are already grimacing because they've been having nonstop orgasms since she was named to the ticket.

my point exactly - her most ardent supporters are right-wing men who want to see her bodacious ta-tas.

i really meant more GOP movers & shakers than John Q. Dumbass... but hell, maybe y'all did, too.

flyover statesman (will), Tuesday, 30 September 2008 22:39 (fifteen years ago) link

it doesn't matter if the initial reaction of "real americans" is a shrug, when it gets replayed on lou dobbs and neal boortz and jack cafferty and jon stewart as a lapse of intelligence they'll mock her for it even if they would've done exactly the same

this is so spot-on; i laughed when i read it.

WTF!?! There's that Terry Richardson trying to look good by association. Again.

jane hussein lane (suzy), Tuesday, 30 September 2008 22:58 (fifteen years ago) link

thumbs up

and what, Tuesday, 30 September 2008 23:04 (fifteen years ago) link

s1ocki, Tuesday, 30 September 2008 23:07 (fifteen years ago) link

What prompts this outpouring, Crut?

it's cringeworthy pseudoscience. I didn't see/read this most recent example, but I've seen it done before ("Obama/Hillary talking and laughing BUT WHAT DOES IT REALLY MEAN??????")

original dixieland jaas band (Curt1s Stephens), Tuesday, 30 September 2008 23:49 (fifteen years ago) link

"See, Crutis's defensiveness on this topic and the way he curls his lip reveals that he has a desire to discredit such interpretations because he probably has something sinister and shocking to hide."

Kerm, Tuesday, 30 September 2008 23:51 (fifteen years ago) link

I totally see that.

COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?

PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —

COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.

PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.

COURIC: Can you name any of them?

PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.

i sort of hate to say this but when a bill finally does get passed mccain is going to be able to say that he came back to washington, personally stopped the blank check to wall street, knocked a few heads, and forced everyone to reconsider and then finally do what was best for the american people

Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 1 October 2008 00:30 (fifteen years ago) link

he can certainly say that but i dont think anyones listening

\\\\\\\\YES//////// (ice crӕm), Wednesday, 1 October 2008 00:31 (fifteen years ago) link

no one's going to care by that point though

poetry unit (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 1 October 2008 00:31 (fifteen years ago) link
