Barack Obama “I would advise that we try to move quickly to coalesce around those elements in the package that people agree on." - January 20, 2010 “What happened in Ferguson is not a complete aberration.” - March 6, 2015 "A bunch of you, because you’ve known me for a long time, came up and commiserated while we were taking pictures." - May 23, 2014 "Since I have been in the Senate, I have worked to try to ameliorate the impact of these trade agreements." - February 27, 2008

  5. Bloomberg has no redeeming qualities to speak of. He's a piece of shit. He's less better than Trump than any of the other candidates with the possible exception of Tulsi Gabbard. If he wins, he'll do nothing to address any of the underlying conditions that led to Trump (well, he might exacerbate them further). He will appoint centrist judges at best, he won't actually do anything serious to address global warming, he won't even fight for a public option, etc. His presidency would cement the US as an oligarchy run by and for the insanely wealthy and from then on our best hope would be to maintain a pseudo-fascist oligarchy that isn't committed to racial genocide to avoid having a fully fascist oligarchy that is. I truly hope a black hole swallows him tomorrow and removes him from this conversation because there's a part of me that feels like if that's where we're headed we might as well get to the inflection point sooner rather than later. But if this truly is hell and he's the nominee I'm still voting for him, because even if America is fucked even marginal policy improvements during the next 4 years would be substantially better for the rest of the world. Hell, even 4 years of absolutely no improvement on climate would be hugely preferable to another 4 years of further GOP destruction and would absolutely save lives over the long term. The GOP is an actual death cult that wants to bring about the end times. Bloomberg is a ton of awful shit, but he's not Jim Jones. But all that's a conversation for later and one that we shouldn't have to have. Instead of normalizing the idea of Bloomberg as a nominee now, we should be telling everyone we know why he's fucking terrible and why he's not nearly the sure thing to beat Trump that so many people want to think he is. He very clearly hates everyone who isn't a multimillionaire and he's got a long history of very publicly shitting on nearly every person in this country. Those clips will continue to be dug up and they'll be aired non-stop in every swing state. Running Donald Trump but without the racism won't appeal to anybody, meaning his only enthusiastic voters will be voters enthusiastic to vote against Trump, who would support any other nominee.

  6. Tunmise is currently roommates with my garbage son Laramy at the IMG academy. I'll see if I can get an update, I've been trying to get Tunmise's number so that I don't have to talk to my worthless son every time I want to see how Tunmise is doing. He's just such an amazing person.

  7. Please cite the legal authority granting police officers the power to adjudicate the accused as guilty of a crime and to immediately administer appropriate punishment. Not your rationalization, but actual authority by which we the people have vested such power in the police by constitution, statute, or common law. I’ll wait. Looking forward to some entertaining reading.

  10. 10 years ago - solid republican voter 8 years ago - luke warm republican voter 4 years ago - luke warm Democrat voter Now - Democrat donor and solid voter who will be an insufferable prick to republicans when this state goes blue. Fuck those vote suppressing mother fuckers and the bullshit they pull to try to retain power at the expense of the least advantaged in society. Unlike republicans, Dems won’t have to play those games because when this state goes blue, it’s never going back.

  14. Herman (takes a long snort of an 8 inch line of coke on his desk then claps his hands together loudly): Okay boys, here's what I'm gonna do! We're going to hire a guy with no experience and no justification for being here, but Chris likes him! He's going to get along great with the kids these days though! Staff (all wearing thousand yard stares): Uh, okaaay. Why not just hire a guy that's qualified and reduce the risk of failure? Herman (face is beet red): SHUT THE FUCK UP!! Staff (still in a state of shock that they're at this place, in this moment, with this guy leading them): Hypothetical here. Just hypothesizing, coach. What can we do to support this guy in case he's an utter and complete failure at a job for which he has no qualifications for having in the first place? Herman (grinding his teeth and scrolling through his iphone): Yeah, yeah, whatever. We'll get him a thingamajig. Like a mentor or something. Some washed-out has-been looking for a gig. I know a bunch of them from Mack's old staffs. Daryl Drake or Dick Tomey or somebody. Staff (skulking off out the door collectively): Sounds like a plan coach ... Herman (looking for his energy drink, adderall, or more coke): Where is Horny?! Horny, get in here!! **** Yep, makes all the sense in the world to go this route.

  16. Except he was constantly tweeting about recruits that had recruitments which were dirty as hell and Texas wasn’t in on, while pumping those recruits and acting like Texas was passing on generational talents, so no, the offseason is still better without his bullshit. It is pretty hilarious though that Roach went to a 7 on 7 and failed to post hardly any videos. That guy really sucks at generating clicks.

  23. Um yeah, I will. The economy was a disaster in 2016. The numbers were all bogus. However in February of 2017 the economy turned around and the numbers became real again. I'm surprised y'all don't remember this.

  24. I'll vote for Bloomberg over Trump obviously, but I fucking hate that the dude floods the airwaves, gets some national poll bumps, and all of a sudden everyone's like "get on board with Bloomberg, people!". FUCK THAT. Mike is a complete piece of shit. Let's get him on the debate stage before we start telling people to fall in line.

  25. This whole deal with Altuve is so infuriating. He's the one guy who didn't want any help, and he's having to defend something so preposterous that was created by a fanboy and run with by the national media. Here's the question I would like people to ponder, which I haven't seen raised once by the national media. If he was wearing a buzzer, WHY WOULD HIS TEAMMATES HAVE WANTED TO RIP OFF HIS SHIRT?????? If we wore a buzzer, by definition he could not have done it by himself, and others would have been in the know. Which means the whole team would have known. Which means...you get my point. This whole mess has made me embarrassed for the organization, and sad as a fan. But I'm over it. The last 72 hours makes me want to run through a brick wall for these guys. Fuck all of these hypocritical players, media and fans from other cities. Hey Cody, have you had your heart-to-heart with Mookie yet and told him how much respect you've lost for him for cheating you out of a World Series??? Jesus Christ.

  27. Cool, now let's look at real wage increases that have barely kept up with inflation vs. CEO pay, the cost of healthcare rising (BEFORE the ACA was implemented), the cost of tuition, the complete dismantling of unions under Reagan and others, the federal minimum wage being worth damn near nothing, etc etc. Almost like the country isn't the same as it once was.

  29. There are enough players who have made their marks in baseball and had no direct conflict with the Astros who have come out and expressed their anger/disgust and explained why, that if you don't understand why players, not fans or the media, are pissed off about it, then you likely never will. Do Mike Trout or Bryant strike you as shit-stirrers for the heck of it? You will also notice that most of these comments are coming after the attempt at apology/non-apology by the Astros. I think the noise from the players would have been dying down, not increasing at this point if there was any sense of real contrition on the part of the Astros.

  31. I hope GRHorn and the crew of Trump memelords continue to post their shitty takes on every one of the Democratic candidate threads. Every time GR and the shitposter crew invade one of these threads, it just reinforces that I'm going to run to the polls with bells on to vote for whoever the Democrats nominate. Every one of those posts undoes some of the damage that this primary, combative b_t posts, and inter-party sparring has done. So I'd like to thank you, GRHorn, Incredulity, Brothahorn, whatever Chrispy alias is around, etc. You continue to provide ongoing perspective that ultimately we need to rally around a candidate if we're going to remove the influence that trash human beings like you have had for four years. I hope you never stop 👍

  32. Anyone have much experience with a Jazzmaster? Played one at Austin Vintage Guitars this past weekend and hit it off with a 60th anniversary '58 vintage reissue: Never considered owning an offset guitar until I played this guy. Loved the flat single coil pups and rythym/lead switch at the top--even if it's a bit gimmicky. Would be a nice compliment to my strat. Should have a NGD in the next month, whether it's a Jazzmaster or another strat...

  37. Over the years I've been called 'coon', 'uncle tom', 'sellout' and a bunch of other shit by friends, family and strangers. Words that I would never have used against another black person over politics. Until now..And I never thought I that I would truly see a 'house negro' in my time. (He probably had everyone of them stopped and frisked before allowing them on stage. And they loved it). Any black person that supports this racist asshole is a sellout, no two ways about. A fucking black quisling! Why else would they support this shit? After all the bullshit said about 'stop and frisk', red lining, profiling now they are on stage skinning, grinning, shucking and jiving. A bunch of fucking props just for money. And the saddest part is they have other viable options, but they willingly chose the racist with the biggest wallet. P-A-N's can't say shit about Trump and his racism. If Trump is such a racist, asshole shit lord, then WTF is Bloomberg? He's Trump and them some. He just hid it better, paid people off. Democrat hypocrisy at it's finest. And for all you good folks, who are going to 'hold your nose' and vote for Bloomberg..bullshit. You will be everything that you have said about Trump supporters. You were just pretending to be something else because of politics. I didn't vote for Trump the first time and had not planned on voting for him in November. So this isn't about getting Trump re-elected. But if Bloomberg is the dem nominee, I will be voting for Trump. I'd rather deal with the asshole who has the balls to say it to my face. Rather than the pussy, who will smile in my face, pat me on the back and then sic the cops on me.

  38. I rewatched Chernobyl recently. The lead physicist was looking back on the the tragedy and talking into his recorder. He was bemoaning how the truth of what happened was suppressed by Soviet leadership. He said something to the effect of "If you lie to people often enough, and long enough, they will no longer know how to see the truth when it is presented to them." It struck me that's why the Republican Part has snuggled up to the Russians. They've embraced Soviet style propaganda, and are lying to people so often the truth is beyond their grasp. All for power.
