I honestly can only guess as to what Nathaniel is referring to, but it is a guess. Context.

I don't think you understand Cormac McCarthy as well as you think you do.

It appears Kingpoleon drastically overestimated public support for his coup. We can only hope TNVolunteer doesn't use this as an excuse to become even more obtuse.
In my defense, I thought I was imitating the great Tom Cotton, not Gulen.

If something is repeated over and over again and is in the public domain, it is not plagiarism. Both Melania Trump and Michelle Obama likely said the similar things with similar construct to what many, many other politicians have said in the past.

People are talking about a few sentences from two paragraphs in a lengthy speech, which basically state one of the concepts that politicians on either side of the aisle agree upon. I consider what both parties said to be political truisms for any candidate seeking election.

Since it is political stock, speechwriters have a tendency to formulate that particular thought in a similar manner -- almost formalistically.

The words that were written for Michelle Obama were hardly new. They were also likely likewise appropriated from some other speech. This happens all the time in politics.

The fact that the press is making such a big deal over a matter that is trivial is an absolute and complete joke. You probably could go through just about every speech made on that floor on Monday and find one or two paragraphs of those speeches that came from somewhere else.

It's political rhetoric.

As is typical on this forum, there's a knee-jerk overreaction to both the gravity of the alleged infraction and the political impact of said infraction. This is much ado about nothing at the end of the day.

Presumably TNF has drifted so far to the left that he's entered a different plane of existence.

Context not necessary, but makes it better:
I believe that this video also demonstrates and analyses the spectrum of theistic probability quite nicely. I reccommend you view it.

Anyone else feel like the GOP just wants to be the opposition party?

Should do quite well given how the Democrats have come out against trans-fats.

Yes, but Donald's stance against the Trans Pacific Partnership might hurt him. Transpeople should have the right to form civil unions with large oceans!

Trump knew what Cruz would do, and he knew that Ted would crash and burn. Trump is playing 4D chess while Ted poops in his hand and smears it all over his own face.

That explains the Norovirus in the Cleve.

Jfern is, unfortunately, never truly gone

Forever in our hearts...

Whenever someone calls Hillary a shrill bitch, jfern will be there.

Whenever someone calls Hillary a neocon warmonger, jfern will be there.

Whenever someone calls Hillary a far right neoliberal corporate whore, jfern will be there.

Oh, and something about Bernie Sanders too.

RIP. Cry

Jferns of Wrath. My favorite novel by John Sandersbeck.

Why replace Stein with Sanders when Jfern's doing the exact opposite?

I could be the first Jewish Pope in theory, but...

You liberals want SO desperately for no Democrat ever to be able to compete in a so-called redneck state that you view as inferior (then you couldn't have such false elitism!), but the fact is that poll after poll shows Hillary at the very least competitive in states like Missouri and Arkansas.  If Obama can almost win Missouri, Hillary can.  And if you think Colorado is some deep blue state now, I think you're quite mistaken.

Seriously.  I'm sure people said a lot of very "dumb" stuff in the past ... besides, weren't early post-2014 midterms polls showing Hillary ahead in Arkansas?

I say it's Tim Roemer. He's anti NAFTA, he's Roman Catholic just like Kaine, and he's voted in favor in the House in the 1990's to reduce student loans, and to increase Pell Grants.

I don't know why I find Bronz's obsession with Tim Roemer so funny, but I do
