It wasn't that fucker Carter, was it? There weren't any other presidents between him and Clinton, so it must've been.

I'm from SoCal and I freely admit that Harris is the better candidate. Villaraigosa never impressed me as mayor and I have no reason to think he'd be a more impressive senator.

Despite threatening vetos, Obama still has one of the lowest veto counts of any president in American history, meaning his threats are all he has. A Good Cartoon.

Where exactly does one go to find the official tally of each president's number of veto threats?

I can't wait until people talk about how he didn't need to issue veto threats because of some nebulous chilling effect because he actually threatened vetos way less often. xthetenth fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Jan 31, 2015 |

Please join AF Branco in speaking out against the fascism of having to pay taxes and not being able to pollute wantonly. 1Fun fact: If Obama says the words "Islamic Terrorism" he'll melt and disappear, like Rumpelstiltskin or something.  2One more!

I think I know the answer, but has Obama ever explicitly said that the Taliban/ISIS/whoever aren't terrorists? How did this become a right-wing talking point?

It comes from him saying that those, and other groups, aren't really Islamic ie: they're violent regressive bastards who have as much in common with mainstream Islam as your average Crusader knight does with modern Christianity.* Needless to say, the GOP took to this message with all the nuance and understanding we've come to expect from them. *excepting, of course, those modern Christians who think the crusades were justified, good ideas which should be repeated, of course.

The actual quote seems to be (re: the Taliban and why they are on some terrorist lists but not others)quote:“They do carry out tactics that are akin to terrorism. They do pursue terror attacks in an effort to try to advance their agenda,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest explained today, but “they have a different classification.”

Samurai Sanders posted:I read a really nice article on some Japanese news site about this the other day. It basically said, you've got Muslims, and then inside that you have a very small percentage of them who are Islamists; i.e. that their religion should dictate national policy, and then inside them you have an even smaller group of people who believe this should be accomplished by violence. That first group mostly denounces the second, and the second mostly denounces the third. Aha! I've got you now! Does the third group denounce themselves? No? Then I guess that Islam as a whole doesn't condemn violent Islamism, and therefore the entire religion is a combination of violent crazies and raw evil.

7oden supports the execution of anybody who might be a terrorist based on political and religious belief. That's pretty out there wanting the whole Tea Party killed.

A lot of you guys seem to forget that facts don't matter in American elections. I know, it's fun to hope and fantasize, but they don't. People will handwave away anything to vote for the person who makes them feel good.

That story was literally a decade ago. It's hard enough to keep a story relevant after six months, what makes you think her story will have any relevance other than a couple speeches Jeb gives to burnish his credentials with the Religious Right? And even they'll be expecting something more recent than a story two Presidencies old.

Curse you for making me go back and look at the baseball cap panel. Zed's face is in the process of sloughing off and he seems mildly concerned about it. I've seen Dominic Deegan comics with better artwork.

Oh god gently caress you Muir those are all barely-filtered images of the devastation of Kobani. I could probably find the exact pictures he copied but gently caress it, it's really obvious and I'm not going to waste my effort beyond this picture: Kobani looks like that because we are helping the Kurds to beat back ISIL via US/coalition airstrikes. That cartoon is literally the exact opposite of the situation on the ground. You know what gently caress it, here you go; this is what the US has been doing to help out. Back in late October, ISIL briefly took control of Tel Shair hill outside of Kobani. We coordinated with the Kurds to help them reclaim the hill:  The US did this by leveling the entire loving hill. Fast-forward to the present:  You see those airstrikes? That's Obama and the US Air force continuing to help out the Kurds against ISIL. gently caress off and die Muir.
