This race has become delightful again

(xpost) I know it's fish in a barrel, but there's a certain kind of surreal genius in those things.

Not to beat a moribund horse, but my sense is that the woman asking the question really meant to ask, do you think it is fair that I am constantly judged because of my hair? Which would be a fair enough question to ask in a general way, but is entirely irrelevant to any (theoretical) future Sanders administration, because there's not really a damned thing Sanders could do about bozos (of either sex) who constantly judge that woman by her hair.

Unfortunately, her attempt to introduce her own distress over being judged by her hair as an issue in the 2016 presidential campaign was so awkward that she ended up by strongly implying that Sanders' hair gives him some kind of an unfair advantage over HRC. I can see why this would confuse the hell out of Sanders, because he's currently trailing Hillary in opinion polls by a massive amount and she's raised about x20 more money than he has, so on the level of daily reality, if the hair issue is undercutting HRC and favoring Bernie atm, it isn't visible to the naked eye.

the coverage of deez nuts is delightful in its desperate attempt to act as if none of us can figure it out and the google research for clarity

"Deez Nuts," according to Know Your Meme, originated as "a video remix series containing a clip of Internet personality WelvenDaGreat saying the phrase 'deez nuts' into a phone, which is often added as the punch line into a variety of videos on Instagram and Vine." The phrase actually dates back to Dr. Dre's 1992 studio album, The Chronic, which features a track titled "Deeez Nuuuts." In the song's intro, Snoop Dogg tells the titular "deez nuts" joke to a woman on the phone. The phrase was added to Urban Dictionary — and thus made truly official — in 2004, Know Your Meme reports.

Snoop Dogg tells the the titular deez nuts joke

The new PPP poll revealed independent candidate Deez Nuts is polling at 9 percent in the Tar Heel state. Running as an independent from Wallingford, Iowa; population 197, Deez Nuts has gone viral and has a large fan base.

The straightfaced reportage here is utterly hilarious.

You might say Deez Nutz is in your face.

👍

wallingfordnutz

I want to know how Deez Nutz would fare against his Republican counterparts, Doze Nutz, in an open election? Because if we're going to get Nutz in office either way, I think I'd prefer Deez to Doze.

:D

many lols esp in the first half of that thing (before the songs)

The Obama-Romney from three years ago was great.

Meanwhile I fully endorse a fall 2015 battle over how to amend the Fourteenth Amendment.

fool me once don't fool me again

or however the saying goes

still think the best bad lip readings are the nfl one w/ adrian peterson and the orange peanut and the game of thrones one where they significantly improved the dialogue

the Herman Cain one has always been the gold standard IMO.

forgot that one, you're probably right

the cain one features the BLR guy doing his best kingfish voice

lol otm, best part imo

a Jeb quote i read yesterday: "I may be the tortoise in the race. But I'm a joyful tortoise."

sorry i see that was mentioned last week

back to the important shit like teen punking faux democracy

rolling stone ran that

i'm still trying to figure out this fourteenth amendment thing. so is the idea for the US to just start stripping citizenship and creating stateless persons en masse? or "only" to walk back "give me your tired, your etc" and stop granting new citizenship to anybody born here, like you'd have to pass a bloodline test or something? help me out here i'm struggling with which degree of fascist fantasy is gaining traction and i want to be able to communicate with the youth

a Jeb quote i read yesterday: "I may be the tortoise in the race. But I'm a joyful tortoise."

is that from the bad lip reading video?

so we've got an Iowa radio host endorsing slavery: http://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2015/08/19/ia-radio-host-jan-mickelson-enslave-undocumente/205020

so is the idea for the US to just start stripping citizenship and creating stateless persons en masse?

I think the idea is p simple (albeit morally abhorrent) - if you are not a citizen and you have children here, the children are not granted citizenship by virtue of having been born on US soil. Conversely, if you are already a citizen and you have a child on US soil, that child is automatically granted citizenship.

Obviously implementing this (which will never happen btw) would create a huge underclass of stateless persons/actually *increase* the number of "illegals"/non-citizens in the country but hey why should anyone consider that
