The Lief Reservoir of Simple Truths and Smart One-Liners

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Limbaugh is an awful human being.

I'm not certain that belongs here as it implies that Rush is human.

[Simfan34]

Sweden Democrats are rising because people are morons. Any attempt to justify this otherwise amounts to condoning xenophobia (which I'm sure many posters are all too happy to do anyway).

Tony, you know and I know that there is a difference between justification and explanation. 'Because people are morons' isn't an explanation because people can be morons in all sorts of different ways, only some of which cause them to vote for xenophobic political parties.

Non-Western countries in general have horrific attitudes toward the mentally disabled and mentally ill.

(also true of Western countries not that long ago, of course)

Calling it now. She loses.

You heard it here first.

So you think there will be 3 Republican waves in a row?

It really depends on whether a Democrat wins in 2016. Even if they won't, by sheer numbers, Democrats have nowhere to go but down in 2018.

That's true, but didn't you say you thought Republicans were favored to win the presidency in 2016? I could be mistaking you for someone else.

I do think they're favored, but it's ridiculous to pretend this seat isn't vulnerable. The main reason Stabenow won by such a large margin in 2012, besides it being a great Democratic year, was the total implosion of her opponent. Assuming she faces someone like Snyder or one of the congressmen, she's going to be in a serious fight.

Ever since he left this place is seeming more and more like Tumblr. The world would be a better place if there were more people like him.

HP for attempting to deny the great Barack Obama his Presidency
FF for attempting to solidify the great Barack Obama Presidency with a mandate 2016 election

Agreed, just hit him with a massive fine and let him go. The imprisonment of people for "white collar crimes" is utterly absurd when our prisons are overcrowded as is.

No, other way around. Let out the non-violent poors and put the white collar criminals in their cells.

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

A pretty-faced do-nothing. Seriously, JFK did nothing on civil rights until he was absolutely forced to, got us into Vietnam, and accomplished almost nothing of note. Why he is so revered by the American public is beyond me.

[Antonio the Sixth]

This new Congress should be sworn at, not in.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

No, I'd prefer not to meet up with a pedophile from the internet in a foreign country, thank you.

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Definitely Bryan. This country would be much better off today if he was elected then.

I find it odd how Democrats pick and choose which of their segregation enablers they disown (Wallace, A Johnson, Eastland, etc.) and which ones they look back fondly upon (Bryan, JFK, Jackson, etc.).  Seems to have a direct correlation with how well historians remember them, which reeks of revisionist history given that they all championed the same economic populism...

Once again, Obama takes a good Republican idea and proposes to expand it, now we just have to wait for the second part of the act where Republicans come out against it in full-force for the story to be complete.

How can anyone not like fruit? My God, you people.

To the internet, on the term 'classical liberal':

Republicans will have a filibuster-proof Senate majority after 2018.

[Flake]

I don't get it

I don't get it

Vanilla as in normal and conventional (not unexciting and boring). I just chuckled at the Vanilla (D). It seemed like a fitting description of Miles.

[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

Ah, nostalgia for the 19th century...(only thing missing is the promotion of scientific racism and the obsession with the price of gold and.....oh.)

It's 2015?

People who registered after opebo's banning should not have an opinion on opebo.

To be fair, I'm sure not many Broncos "fans" actually watch the NFL either.

[IceSpear]

The fact that you said something insane that looks vaguely like part of it might happen doesn't make you anything close to a prognosticator. It just so happens that reality is almost as bad as your pipe dreams.

Probably fits better here than the sulfur mine due to the short yet elegant simplicity.

It may be true, but it is still a personal attack, so not a good idea to post it here.
