Being a doctor isn't a magic golden ticket to the 1%, the vast majority are dudes doing pretty well for themselves usually saddled with heavy debts and some pretty hard work to maintain it. Not even going into the utter metric ton of poo poo medical non-doctor jobs have to deal with like nurses and poo poo.

The real reason to be against doctors working so long in their early career is because if the doc workin on ya at the hospital is in hour 24 of their shift, you're way more likely to die.

Hey so you guys remember that weaseley little rear end in a top hat who put up those fake Planned Parenthood vids that led to states trying to pull funding and which instigated firebombs and a terrorist attack against a clinic? He's getting his rear end sued.quote:Planned Parenthood filed a lawsuit Thursday against the anti-abortion activists who secretly taped the group's officials talking about the sale of fetal tissue and released the heavily edited videos last year.

Pretty much, like a lot of her stupid moments she's not 100% in that we probably shouldn't pretend Iran is magically our friend now and all, and a lot of the sanctions lifting are the ones that help the wealthy get their poo poo easier and maybe we shouldn't prioritize them in this stuff, she's really loving stupid to trot it out NOW when the narrative is 'see what real diplomacy gets us' and I kinda don't know why she thinks this is the good time to do it.

Being an aggressive politician makes for effective time in office but incredibly bad optics in elections. Also she listens to her inner circle a little to much instead of thinking for herself.

Nah its really her campaign team has lovely instincts. They think people won't like her for who she is (a wonky nerd) and so we get this. It's a shame because she's fine when she's not campaigning.

I hope it's pointed out over and over and over again how this is a direct result of short sighted tea party policy failures On a somewhat related note, Kansas is a rolling tirefire at the moment, how long before it becomes the first failed state? Aren't they already raiding accounts set aside from tobacco lawsuits to do public good to prop up their failed economics? Also lots of other terrible things?

Agenda 21 is beginning, he's arming the feral thugs and will send them out from Michigan to reshape America in 0bummer's image. Translation: FEMA will now get involved, additional federal funds will be given to Flint/Michigan to help with the whole lead drinking water thing.

SpiderHyphenMan posted:I don't know the right answer, but I know that this is exactly the wrong one. The right answer is that Hillary just told republicans that they were right on Iran and sanctions because Hillary is afraid of that stupid movie hurting Hillary's Secretary of State legacy, so Hillary needs to look tough now. Well except for the separating nuclear program and Ballistic missile programs being the wrong way.

Hillary really likes the current administration in Israel and they probably aren't super all about Iran and the US becoming closer pals. She might share that view. If she feels strongly about it, she might say so sincerely, without it being an electorally calculated strategic comment. That's my guess on what's happening there.

Hillary picked the worst possible time to grandstand about additional sanctions and this "distrust but verify" nonsense but these are ballistic missile sanctions and have been in the works for a couple weeks at least from the Treasury department: http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/30/politics/iran-sanctions-ballistic-missiles/
