The Simple Truths Silver Mine

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

My parents don't give me access to the alcohol.

When I was younger, I knew how to find access

Probably cuz your parents weren't always home. Mine are. And if they're not, my dad knows how much beer/alcohol he has left.

So pedantic

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

People always complain about politicians not telling the truth, but whenever one actually does it, people turn around and flip out.

Landrieu didn't even say what the thread title says. This is such dishonesty.

[Flake]

Well, 1.) I just don't care about drinking, and 2.) I don't have time since I'm usually gone from the early morning to late evening with school + work + internship.

15 or 16 I think, and it was mostly just an excuse to wear lipstick.

[Marokai Backbeat]

I completely clicked on the wrong thread. That was meant for the trick-or-treating thread.

The real act of terrorism is WHITE CAPITALISTS in this country DESTROYING AND MURDERING innocents abroad to further their WHITE SUPREMACIST DESIRE FOR MONEY. The real terrorists are those WHITE CAPITALISTS (SUCH AS THE TEA PARTY, KOCH BROTHERS, AND BILL GATES) who are COMPLETE PYSCHOPATHS and enjoy watching the working class and AFRICAN AMERICANS BURN.

Don't worry slave owning white supremacist plutocrats, you will get yours. Some day the oppressed proletariat of this goddamn racist country will rise up and DESTROY YOU AND YOUR GODDAMN MONEY AND CLASS BASED SYSTEM OF RACIAL GENOCIDE.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

The silence on this topic is telling.

"sign this petition to ban Bushie"
"if you don't like it don't read it"/"its only one thread"/"its the only reason I come here"/"quit crying"
"there are too many update threads"
"don't click on the thread then"/"the FC board is stupid anyway, who cares?"
"you guys are bullies and liars"
<crickets>

Really, SWE? REALLY??

I know this is the Atlas Forum and that you get crucified for even acknowledging that you enjoy the appearance of attractive women

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

If Obamanation was Governor of New York he'd be a complete laughingstock and thus would do far less damage.

[Goldwater]

Electing judges is an awful practice anyway.

[traininthedistance]

Two things. I'll have more to say about this later.


1. Congrats, Phil.
2. Junk country.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

Too spineless, gutless, and pathetic at arguing their position.

Context click needed. 

[Sol]

The culture warriors, champions of the new jim crow, and the plutocrats have won. I've never been more ashamed to be an American.

The far right has seized control for good, and we have no chance of ever defeating them.

These are the end times, so to speak. There's no point to voting in any of these elections anymore. The bad guys will never be punished, and the good guys will always lose.

I have no hope for America anymore.

[Ebowed]

Warner got warned.

[memphis]

Go fuck yourself.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Quinn is unpopular and the Illinois Dems are a corrupt joke. Nothing remotely shocking about the result there.

[IceSpear]

This is what America looks like when only 50+ year old white people vote.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

We've been cast back to 2005, with grim talk of a permanent Republican majority and Hillary Clinton as Mark Warner, the Democrats' uninspired hope for salvation.

[Clarko95 📚💰📈]

The results of the 2014 election, in one sentence:

It doesn't matter how many people agree with us if these people don't vote.

[memphis]

the voters are clearly too stupid to know where either party stands on anything.

[King]

I've read AD's reply, but I'm not sure I agree with it.

[Antonio the Sixth]

This is just embarrassing. F'ing lazy Americans. We don't deserve democracy. Maybe Obama should just do what all the right wingers say he already does and declare himself dictator. I doubt all the morons watching Honey Boo Boo and Duck Dynasty instead of taking 5 minutes to vote will notice.

[SWE]

Yes, bandit is a legend. Those who disagree should leave immediately imo.

[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

Probably Begich, with Hagan close second. That's what makes their losses so heart-wrenching.

This, although Hagan losing was even worse because while Sullivan is at least a pretty vanilla Republican, Thom Tillis has already screwed over his state in countless ways and seems like such a schmuck in general.  Hagan was a decidedly meh Senator, but Tillis seems absolutely terrible.

[they don't love you like i love you]

I don't understand the hate.  She's a brilliant, thoughtful, engaging person.  I can't think of someone better qualified to be President.

I guess what I don't understand is how Hillary as President would result in quantitatively inferior results to if another plausible candidate became President.  Maybe if you want radical conservative policies, sure.  But, if you're moderate to leftist, Hillary could deliver results as well as anyone could.
