Indefinite Detention? But I Have Soccer Practice at 4: U.S. Politics 2012

Tell me, why are they so bad and hated? On second thought, maybe that should wait for a later time.

Feeling underwhelmed by the Fox News Mole

why exactly should we care about an old picture of Bill O'Reilly with his friends and a topless girl

seems more like a publicity stunt to get a book deal then anything genuinely revealing

Dude needs more than a video of Romney & Hannity and a picture of a bathroom stall to get a book deal, right?

not if his goal is just to write a personal "expose" of how terrible it is to work at Fox News

this is actually the title of REO Speedwagon's comeback album which is being hailed as a return to form

They really believe this

what's great about that is the chart he uses shows the poverty rate being cut from about 23% to 13% between 1960 and '70 and bouncing around that mark ever since. so medicare and the great society basically worked, eh dudes?

^^exactly. and hey let's look at those 90s. this chart clearly shows that the Bush tax cuts were a disaster

god these people are so fucking stupid it burns.

These guys really believe that poor single moms can easily just take and commute to minimum wage jobs out in the burbs while having their kids magically taken care of and fed and taken care of health-wise;and this is what Jesus would want

Plus they believe that if they have tv sets at home they are not really poor. Ugh

"lefty extremist kevin drum"

look we all know what team we're on here, but that's not an accurate reading of their objection curmudgeon. "charity" and "government" are two different things.

ugh

since when is "true" a verb

idk it just sorta trued into being a verb a while ago

I TRUED IT

hahahah what the hell

"He got trued last night" sounds like my kind of neologism

jeez talk to a bike mechanic sometime

true is totally a verb dudes means the same thing as square, as in level or even or to adjust something to the right psition

look if Kingsley Amis said it's ok to use as a verb then I'm cool

so 'true' is amised?

Ok, one commentor on the Red State posting mentions the word "charity" but not the author of the posting. Some of my above comments were based on standard complaints I have read on that Red State site and other right-wing sites, and you are correct were not specifically in that author's posting.

i got trued by a Republican operative in a voting-booth beef.

Republican opposition ensured that a measure pressed by President Obama and Senate Democrats to raise effective tax rates for the superrich would not come to a decisive vote.

Thank you Mark Pryor, alleged Democrat from Arkansas for voting with the filibustering Republicans on this. Sure, Dems were 9 votes short of 60 and the Buffet Rule alone would not solve everything, but still.

Washington-based conservative writer aghast at Hillary Clinton; plus yesterday's NY Post had a photo with the caption "Swillary":

http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/nilegardiner/100150955/is-hillary-clinton-becoming-an-embarrassment-as-secretary-of-state/

It is hard to imagine Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell, Madeleine Albright or Henry Kissinger “livin' la vida loca” on the world stage. This was less an example of “smart power” than a boozy nightclub audition for the sixth season of Jersey Shore. Hillary Clinton’s Colombian antics are an embarrassment for a high-level cabinet member on official duty, and have lowered the office of Secretary of State. Not exactly the sort of image the federal government should be projecting at a time of widespread public disillusionment with Washington excesses.

Have you seen digby's response?

Nice.

The substantive news from Colombia is not good:

Overlooking violence against Colombian labor leaders and ongoing efforts to prevent unions from forming, the Obama administration announced at the Summit of the Americas over the weekend that the US-Colombia Free Trade Agreement will take effect May 15.”

GUESS WHO'S BIZzACK?

Andrew v. otm

first as tragedy, then as Poochie.

Slick Willie looks like he's three feet tall! Love the tie though.

Compare and contrast these ex-two-term-presidents: Clinton v. GW Bush.

every president ever >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GWB

even Andrew Johnson?

sure why not

which wars did Johnson start/which economic disaster did he create I forget

for a certain segment of the population he helped foster an economic disaster and war that has lasted to this day

He created a racial disaster in the South iirc
