  1. In the same way a paper cut and a malignant tumor are bad.
  2. It's a different topic, but the problem is nonetheless unavoidably attached to the answer to his question.
  3. They’re just adhering to the post-modernist tradition and value of “everything is an opinion, nothing is moral or immoral, all opinions are equally valid, feelings and emotions, blah blah blah.”
  4. [Jeff]Seems like a pattern there, Ron[/Foxworthy]
  5. By and large it depends on where you were educated and when, and the same is true of other historic moments of the country. So take the Texas Revolution. Again, I got the same bullshit story most of you were fed. That Dave Crockett, Jim Bowie, William Travis, et al were a bunch of noble heroes trying to free these peaceful white settlers from the tyrannical grip of the evil Santa Ana. But if you grew up in San Antonio and the Valley, you get a much different story as I was recently told by my godfather's two children (about my age).
  6. Not only that, but like Ken Burns keeps reminding us whenever he's asked about it, just read the fucking articles of secession in every single state in that horrid band of reptiles. When you do it, count how many times you see "slavery" or "negroes" or anything related to that, then compare it to how many times you see "states' rights." The latter barely comes up, and in some cases, not at all.
  7. You’d be correct to assume that. It does spill and what spills is absolutely toxic
  8. The future of the right need be dealt with in only one way:
  9. I was taught that it was a mixed bag of states’ rights and slavery at HP in the same period. The stuff about Lee and Grant someone else mentioned previously sounded about the same as what I heard.
  10. That would be the ultimate state of misery. Where the fuck would they actually go and what sort of employment opportunities exist? Couple that with the denial of federal government services and you're going to have a re-enactment of the fucking Dark Ages. And Bongino doubtlessly knows this, but he's just a shock jock that appeals to idiots' most basic instincts and feelings. My 6-year old daughter exhibits a superior intellect to this whenever she begs me to play Barbies with her.
  11. The only stupid ones they employ are the ones on camera. The motherfuckers off camera know exactly what they’re doing.
  12. The judge agreed with their argument, so make of that whatever you choose. But yes, the bigger takeaway is that Fox/NewsCorp/Murdoch explicitly instructed their attorneys to make that argument.
  13. I think that last sentence needs to be repeated as often as possible if this thread is to continue. That’s not just a personal opinion anymore; that’s a matter of public record…confessed to by lawyers of his employer, I might add.
  14. I don't necessarily agree with the premise regarding attorneys in general, but these guys? Yes, I too will believe it when I see it.
  15. Some men see things as they are and ask, “why?” Some men dream things that never were and claim “job creators.”
  16. He certainly did not help the effort, either.
  17. Wouldn't have been the right nuts to punch. Those belonged to one Fred Akers for 1) not starting Rob Moerschell at QB (in fact, making that decision right before the offense took the field for its first possession) and 2) that fatal 4th down decision in the 4th quarter.
  18. And what’s kept it going is that there are dozens of YouTube videos of these weirdos in court and they all contain the same people commenting about how they “schooled” the judge or they “destroyed” the prosecutor. Of course, they don’t show the inevitable follow ups on all of them, which is the judge actually considers the argument before categorically dismissing them in a subsequent session. They never show that; just the Moors and the sovereign citizens talking their shit.
  19. 1990-1994, and that’s sort of true. Detroit didn’t have one 1990-1991 and Atlanta had only a couple in name only but rarely used them.
  20. Son, in the good state of Texas, posting that picture even in jest is grounds for execution. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
  21. That man contributed more to the turning of bewildering inanities into a fucking language like no Texan ever did before, and imagine the territory that covers.
  22. Several years ago, there was a study done that found that Americans ranked at or near dead last in the industrial world in math, but ranked #1 in confidence in math skills. We're a walking, talking, breathing example of the Dunning Kruger Effect. I'm certain you feel you've explained everything.
  23. How the fuck is that war criminal still alive anyways?
  24. I'll repeat Christopher Hitchens re: Jerry Falwell's death, because it's very appropriate here: "I think it's a great pity that there isn't a Hell for him to go to."
