  2. There will be fence jumpers but I doubt it’ll be a significant portion
  3. And that’s not the kind of sniffing-glue-while-making-believe-LBJ-killed-JFK shit, either.
  4. Has anyone stopped to notice that literally ALL of his “alters” just by fluke of fate happen to be giant dicks?
  5. Yes and then someone tells him "sir, the child is 13 years old." His response? *calls John Roberts* "John, do NOT overturn Roe!!!"
  6. He really does. Go back and watch that 30 for 30 about the USFL and Herschel is shown doing nothing but praising Trump…on a documentary about the USFL. Like motherfucker, you’re talking about the guy who was most responsible for killing it. This is like someone telling everyone what a great birthday party clown John Wayne Gacy was.
  7. I wouldn’t even begin to compare the two. As a matter of fact, I would say 9/11 begat 1/6.
  8. I’ve no doubt he actually believes what he just said. The problem is: ”insurrection” comes from the old French “insurgere,” which means “rise up.” In modern lingo, the word is very frequently associated with the concept of “armed rebellion.” Here’s the thing: one needn’t possess a gun in order to be “armed.” When you have anything that can be constituted as a weapon, by definition, you are armed. You’re armed if you have a knife; armed if you have a crowbar; armed if you have a mace; armed if you have a sword; armed if you have nunchucks; etc. This whole deal about “armed means guns” is an exclusive American perversion, and the US does not have exclusive rights over the word “insurrection.” And yeah there’s the extra layer of “yeah, there were guns too.” So not only is Tucker absolutely wrong, he cannot be right. This level of wrongness is right up there with the assertion of Noah’s Flood as actual history: we know it isn’t right, and we know it cannot be right. He’s not going to get out of that by playing semantics about as well as Todd Marinovich played QB in the NFL. The US legal code isn’t gonna help him, either. ”Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.” It says absolutely nothing about guns, so he’s gonna have to give this one up. But such is the mind of the right wing: lazy, suggestible, inarticulate, uneducated, undisciplined, unmotivated to do anything except be a dick for dick’s sake. They have as much business being offended when they’re called “degenerates” as a fire truck has when it’s described as being “red.”
  9. There are those who are worth considering, there are those not worth considering, there are those who are so laughably stupid that it almost requires us to mock them, and there are those who give rise to the idea that if brains were fuel, they wouldn't have enough to power a flea's motorcycle around a drop of rain.
  10. Oh it is. We don’t condone it in our household, and yet when I play my 14-year old nephew in Madden and when I’m beating his ass, he is guaranteed to say the phrase “LITERALLY GAY!” like 5-6 times. He doesn’t get that from me, his dad, his mom, his aunt (my wife) or anyone else. That’s obviously a school (i.e. peer) thing.
  11. 90’s kid in Dallas. That was the slogan we had for the week we played against JJ Pearce HS
  12. Don’t those fat asses (aka the majority of the participants) qualify as “toxic irritants” just in and of themselves?
  13. Seriously that guy is a fucking idiot
  14. Well I only said that because he’s not catholic
  15. How long til this guy is found in a motel snorting coke off a dude’s ass?
  16. Why are we allowing children to sit at the adult table?
  17. It won’t do anything because she poured gas on what amounts to the floor of Hill House.
  18. Not only that but she couldn’t even rehabilitate her image even if she was fucking broadcasting whatever she told Pence in real time. What’s her saving grace? “Hey I fucked up American education even more than it’s already been fucked up, but at least i supported possibly removing Trump from office all of 2 weeks before his term expired?”
  19. Which again is exactly what McConnell and Co. would be saying if this happened to Sotomayor/Kagan/Jackson. These statements that they’re putting out about this moron are both in bad faith and in bad taste. And they wonder why I call them degenerates.
  20. It really is about the ends justifying the means, isn’t it? What is truly amazing is that they cannot explain why they’re so committed to those means when they can’t even define what the ends even are. Ok so Trump “won” the 2020 election. That’s gonna make their lives better? How?
  21. Well it’s not really about protecting Brett Kavanaugh the person; it’s about protecting that 6-3 majority.
  22. Again, they’ve been conditioned since childhood to believe that politics is a team sport and everything can be boiled down to glorious, righteous and virtuous “us” vs. those conniving, rotten evil bastard “thems.” I have no doubt that the reaction would be totally different if this exact story didn’t involve Brett Kavanaugh and instead involved Sonia Sotomayor. Anyways, this isn’t legitimate political discourse. This is hyper-partisan showboating by a handful of poster children for the Dunning Kruger Effect.
  23. What are two things that don’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell at legitimately understanding each other?
