NRO's The Corner: Obamacare ‘like a house on fire’ with more flammable parts yet to come

i don't think many people have anything against melania, really. she seems sort of indifferent to her husband's campaign so i'm not so sure she shares his ideology, if you even want to call it that. i get the sense that she is not interested in being a public figure so much, and i respect that. sort of weird she would choose to marry the most vile man in america but hey

golddiggers gonna dig

she had to have seen more in him than that. she was a pretty well known model, i would think she could have landed a less repulsive rich guy

pleased to see this thread might live up to its 2012 and 2008 splendor

ya. trump's three wives were good in their own right, but i feel melania is the nicest and most willing to support his antics

can't wait til dems and repubs go at it later this year and trump pulls the "my daughter is jewish you buffoon!" card

trump's taking a heavy smearing campaign though. what's with people saying melania posed nude? i consider myself an advanced google user. i've googled for them and only saw the sexy gq ones, which are not nudes. ivanka's nudes were super easy to find, on the other hand

WORD???

Summary, and I quote: "Only intolerance can stop utopia now."

Watch as the students struggle to explain why an adult male shouldn’t enroll in a first-grade class, why he’s not a woman, why he’s not substantially taller, or why he’s not Asian. This isn’t moral relativism, it’s a completely fact-free new moral code, one based entirely on consent and harm. Or, I should say, immediate harm. Essentially the new morality is “you do you — so long as it doesn’t hurt me or someone else in a way that I immediately recognize.” The new immorality is any act of “intolerance” that purports to interfere with this radical autonomy.

The fascinating and disturbing thing is that a generation that so prizes its alleged love of “science” continues to hold to this primitive harm-based morality in spite of oceans of evidence that years of far more basic departures from traditional morality have caused (and are causing) enormous social problems and human suffering. Years ago no-fault divorce was a no-brainer, a recognition of individual free will. Fast forward two generations and broken families are a prime factor in virtually every negative economic, emotional, and cultural development in the United States.

More recently, cohabitation is a new norm, and couples who wait until marriage to live together are seen as odd. Yet cohabitation often causes young children to experience extreme family instability, exposes children to greater risk of physical and sexual abuse from non-parent boyfriends, and often leaves single mothers facing serial abandonment.

Not a very well kept secret

by Mona Charen April 30, 2016 7:39 AM @monachareneppc

Is Jay Nordlinger mournful? Am I? Maybe, but you can’t tell from this week’s supercharged podcast which powers through the news with the speed of a locomotive. We condemn and praise (Boehner, Ferrell, Coburn, many more), throw in a few anecdotes, and dispense justice with a swift (rhetorical) sword. This is the paradigmatic Charen/Nordlinger podcast. No holds barred.

i like how it's just a website but he calls it a university and says he "founded" it

Professor Adam Carolla https://www.prageru.com/courses?pid=6

Are you an accredited university?

No. PragerU is not a university and we do not offer degrees. But we are the most influential online resource for explaining the concepts that have made America great.

Did Bush Lie About Iraq? presented by Judith Miller

Judith: "To answer this profound question, we must be very careful to parse the word 'lie', so as to distinguish it from telling untruths. For example, we can be absolutely certain that Cheney lied through his teeth about Iraq. And we also know that Bush was told the truth about Iraq by a variety of different sources. But we are forced to consider the very remote possibility that Bush chose not to believe the truth and preferred to believe the lies, which he then passed along to the rest of the world as the truth. Which action may be indistinguishable from lying in ordinary sense of the word, but technically is only telling untruths while claiming they are true. Next question."

Remember, You Asked for This

I want to leave a note here, because I expect to have many occasions to link back to it in the next several months. Americans and Republicans, remember: You asked for this. Given the choice between a dozen solid conservatives and one Clinton-supporting con artist and game-show host, you chose the con artist. You chose him freely. Nobody made you do it.

I will be reminding you all of that, from time to time.

now that's some tasty anger

aww

ooh better bookmark this then

You guys should read Michael Potemra today.

waht

The more I think about Senator Cruz’s stunning announcement last night that he is suspending his campaign, the more brilliant I think it is. The No. 1 political handicap he had in this campaign is that people thought he was too nakedly ambitious, too laser-focused on his own advancement, as opposed to, e.g., the good of the party. But in one fell swoop last night, he managed to put paid to this idea. He could have stayed in the race and played a backroom guerrilla war for the next couple of months, delegate by delegate. But he looked at the Indiana results . . . and stepped away. In future years – and even later this year, if something cataclysmic happens to Trump and Republicans need another nominee — conservatives, and the GOP, will not remember just the Ted Cruz whose ambitions many of them distrusted earlier in the year. They will also remember the man who showed a hell of a lot of grace in bowing out. Cruz looks pretty good as Cincinnatus at the plow.

Given the choice between a failed IT exec who laid off 30,000 workers, a minister who recorded a campaign commercial featuring over 4 dozen separate shots of him playing with his phone, a libertarian who opposes the civil rights act of 1964 while also claiming to be the "greatest defender of minority rights", a guy whose homophobia prompted a campaign to make his last name synonymous with anal froth,
a dozen solid conservatives, a new jersey governor reviled by his own constituents, a louisiana governor reviled by his own constituents, a man who believes that joseph built the pyramids - not aliens, as various scientists believe - to store grain and likes to brag about how he almost stabbed a guy, a robo-candidate who has never actually accomplished anything other than drinking water, a privileged scion who helped his brother steal the presidency and then went out of his way to keep a feeding tube in terry schiavo's throat, a 2012 candidate laughingstock whose only adjustment for 2016 was to start wearing glasses, a lesbian hawk from south carolina, and literally the most hated man in america, an ohio governor who wanted to give hip-hop a shot so bought a Roots cd only to be dismayed that the music "was intended to shock and titillate, for no good reason but to shock and titillate", and one Clinton-supporting con artist and game-show host, you chose the con artist. You chose him freely. Nobody made you do it.

I will be reminding you all of that, from time to time.
