Zeroisanumber posted:By the time that Botha and F. W. de Klerk started to break down the apartheid system, mainstream US movies were portraying white South Africans as villains and prime time network television shows were talking about what poo poo they were. George H. W. Bush kept them at arms length even through the reforms, and I can't imagine that either he or Bill Clinton would've had much to do with an unrepentant South Africa in the post-Cold War world. They might have limped along to the early 2000's, but I don't think they would have made it past that. Though if they went hard towards the nuclear program with Israel they might have managed to dodge that bullet. who knows!

He's popular with deep-pocketed libertarian shitbags, he has some Tea Party cred, he might bring Wisconsin to the table, and he's enough of a non-entity that Jeb won't have a problem keeping a tight reign on him.

Walker is a stabilised version of the Palin strain--all the extremist views, the highly impressionable empty suit for everything else, while still retaining enough intelligence and self-control to not poo poo all over himself the moment a camera is pointed in his direction. Given his far-RW cred and his eagerness to kiss rear end if it helps his position he's all but a lock for a veep nod--especially for a candidate that would otherwise have issues with the freep segment of the GOP.

I don't think the GoP dealsmen are dumb enough to give their veep nod to another bland white hard-right idiot from Wisconsin. Particularly when this one isn't even handsome. Would give it about 70% that it goes to one of rubio, martinez or sandoval. They know they aren't gonna make inroads with the black vote anytime soon (no, not even with ben carson or Tim Scott), but have not given up on the "hispanics are secret conservatives" thing yet and will probably double down on attempts to appeal to them.

It's a shame that Biden probably wouldn't be interested in another couple terms as VP, because I'd love to see him punk Walker in a debate like he did with Ryan.

Another cell phone video showing police violence, this time a cop sic's his dog on a man he already has on the ground and straddled. http://photographyisnotacrime.com/2015/04/new-video-surfaces-showing-new-jersey-cops-siccing-dog-on-non-resisting-man-who-ended-up-dying/

Christ, I'm feeling sick to my stomach right now. The worst part isn't the fact that the dog savages the suspect when he's already on the ground with a cop straddling him, it's that there's another cop standing by and watching. If you need to further restrain the suspect, in what loving way do you justify bringing in the dog rather than the loving human being with hands?

If you need to further restrain the suspect, in what loving way do you justify bringing in the dog rather than the loving human being with hands? This is what's killing me. I've always been critical of police but in the sense that "there are good ones and bad ones and we need to pay attention so we don't let the bad ones get away with poo poo." But gently caress, this video. The horse chase with the 10 cops followed by their chief making excuses. The SC murder where the guy's partner is standing right there in the video. The way the NYPD responded to all the Garner poo poo. I'm very quickly getting to the point of "gently caress the police." If there are good cops than they're being corrupted and turned bad. If there are good cops left then stand the gently caress up and do something. Because every time I see one of these videos these days all I can notice are the OTHER cops standing around watching it happen and making zero effort to stop it or report the truth later.

The great thing about that video is that person recording is yelling that the suspect is unconscious. The police continue to escalate force, and the witness is screaming at them that the person is non responsive. It doesn't take a degree or medical training to know when someone is done. gently caress the Police.

Biden has run for president numerous times and I have always supported him, he just never caught on. I think he even if he ran today, he wouldn't catch on. What is the reverse of the "it is happening" gif? That is Biden. EDIT: Seriously, you could claim a goon pizza escalated him to the vice presidency and almost be right.

He is way more complicated than that. I'd probably vote for a different Democrat than him because Biden is really pro war. I didn't realize that a long time ago. You have to realize, I've been rooting for this guy for 20 years. I love the man, but I've lost faith in him. Of course, he is still a lot better than the candidates he lost to. Biden would have been the Terminator President, and that would not be bad. By Terminator I don't mean war, I mean he would be like troll Obamo 24 hours a day. He can't let poo poo go, so he would be constantly firing back. Pohl fucked around with this message at 08:47 on Apr 12, 2015 |

People that like him want to dismiss it, but I think he really believes the things he said about drugs. Sure, he was the catalyst for gay marriage, but he has a lot of really horrible ideas on drugs. Edit: his intentions are good at least, but his ideas are horrible.
