That's the truest words I've read in a while

I still not buying it. Women tend to be more intelligent.
Hence why few come on here.

Holy sh**t, Bernie would get mercilessly slaughtered in the general. No wonder why the Republicans have been playing pattycake with him for the past year.

And sorry guys, but if you need the typical voter to read a 10 paragraph debunking or to visit "bernietax.com", you've already lost.

Politicians and other government officials may lie. Forensic science doesn't. This was Oswald and Oswald alone.

Can we all just relax and wait for the actual results?

That's not possible on Atlas. It's like asking a dog to do quantum physics.

but I guess that depends on whether parliament is dissolved.
In the same way your birthday depends on the day you were born, yeah. Great insight!
This was a bit rude, and probably unwarranted, but... LOLOLOLOL

Allocating delegates by CD is an idiotic idea to begin with considering how badly we get screwed by GOP gerrymanders. No need to validate them through our primary process.

I'm genuinely not clear on what your point is. A quid pro quo is not a gift. It is a transaction. Why should what is effectively buying the naming rights to a law school qualify as a charitable donation?

Moreover, how does naming a school after someone because donations were contingent on that renaming any kind of tribute to that person's achievements? It's a statement about power - and not even Scalia's power, in this case - and nothing more than that.

It should always be unacceptable for someone not to be a feminist.  You're either a sexist piece of sh!t or you aren't.  It's that simple.  Saying that you oppose feminism, but aren't a misogynist is like saying "I'm not a racist, I just believe that African-Americans shouldn't have the same rights as white people because the former are inherently inferior to the latter."  Opposing feminism literally means that you do not think men and women should have equal rights.

Third post in a row, but I feel it's an important point most people here always forget about.

Polling is a science and questions have to be carefully asked in a specific way to try and get accurate information.

Easily the most overrated Founding Father, especially among conservatives for some reason (nothing is inherently conservative about small government or being from the South, LOL), but I don't know if he's an HP.

Most Americans may not be very smart at all (abolish democracy!), but boy, I bet they know how to spell a basic two syllable word like absurd.

Perhaps you missed the self-truth within ProgCanadian's post?  That's why I put it here.

You're right. Some people are so evil that they are beyond redemption. I highly doubt Ted Cruz is ever able to redeem himself.

If you're a mental health counselor and don't want to "deal" with LGBT patients because it goes against your "beliefs", please do us all a favor and quit. You really have no business treating patients.

Mental health is a huge issue in this country (not just with the LGBT population) and we need to make it easier/more accessible for people.

I see marriage equality as settled law. I don't like it, but there's no point in fighting it anymore. I don't think clerks should be forced to hand out ssm licenses against their religious beliefs though, and that is worth legislating.

Government is supposed to be independent of specific religions. If they don't want to hand out SSM marriage licenses, they should stop complaining and get another job.

Not really. It's just that if you think the Sanders campaign is mainly driven by racism against Hillary Clinton, then you're dead wrong. For one thing, actual racists would tend to hate Sanders more than Clinton.

But clearly this is no way a complex subject and no racist has ever voted for Sanders in order to stick it to Clinton.

They didn't vote for Sanders. They voted against Hillary (who, ironically, carried the state handily in 2008), since she's running as Obama's continuation. Those very same people aren't going to back Sanders in November if he's the nominee.

Also, OK primary voters hardly constitutes "Sanders campaign".

That's literally my entire point.
