Sure. In fact, Ben Carson has a great idea on who can fill that open seat: quote:Ben Carson has a plan for Ted Cruz now that the Texas senator has dropped out of the GOP presidential race: attorney general, then Supreme Court justice under a Trump administration.

ComradeCosmobot posted:With the FCC working hard to crack down on abusive phone rates in jails, the companies responsible are already moving on to the new leading edge of jail technology: replacing all in-person visitation with 50¢ per minute video visitation that does not even work. Well this is pretty loving evil. Where does this rank under justice reform? Does the reform need go: Laws, police, prison? The what court?

How is this legal? I'm guessing there's exceptions for meeting with your legal counsel otherwise it's definitely prime for being struck down since bilking the poo poo out of people or flat out making them unable to meet due to insufficient means seems like a no go pretty easily.

It's for talking with friends/family. You'd be surprised how long people spend talking on the phone with relatives while in jail. It's all monitored, too!

The funny thing about the horrible rates prisoners were getting charged for regular phone calls, is that when adjusted for inflation they were normal costs for long distance calls, or sometimes even short distance calls, back when baby boomers were growing up. I wouldn't be surprised if why they kept raising the rates all along was so that they could continue to pocket ever increasing differences between the inflation adjusted prices everyone paid in the distant past and the real cost today (aka loving nothing).

Between, poo poo I don't know, Ben Carson talking about prosecuting Hillary for emails or Benghazi or both, the fact that Obama will probably also wind up in jail if Trump wins, the Senate not doing their job until they can appoint Ted Cruz to the SCOTUS, Donald talking about defaulting on the national debt like it's the One Weird Trick to fix the economy, and probably slowly coming to the realization that he can win the Presidency saying stupid poo poo to rattle the markets since shitposting on Twitter and a poor economy both do wonders for his poll numbers... ...15% chance America the nation doesn't make it to 2024? Does that sound about right?

http://www.redstate.com/aglanon/2016/05/02/i-lied-to-myself-for-years/ this election, it's so perfect quote:Ann Coulter, Gateway Pundit, Laura Ingraham, Michael Savage, Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Sarah Palin, Breitbart News, Matt Drudge, and scores of others, too many to list here. They are all people that at one time or another caused me to bury my face in my hands. Caused me more than once to say “wait…we ARE the stupid party?”

But still, it's not even close something like 2% of the US population died as a direct result of the Civil War lol.

Paul LePage continues to be comically awful, now using his influence to steal puppies.quote:The Greater Androscoggin Humane Society in Lewiston, Maine, says people can adopt animals on a first-come, first-served basis once they become publicly available. Arsenault planned to take off work and wait in line early Wednesday to be sure that she would be able to adopt the dog she had her eye on.

My Imaginary GF posted:I can't loving wait for North Carolina to lose all loving access to Federal funds, including student loans for NC institutions. That's great plan if you are Republican I guess. The GOP here has hated our universities for decades. Punishing the population who most likely opposes HB2 seems counter intuitive. Hell, Jesse Helms ranting and raving about "godless, communist" UNC in the 60's (when he wasn't trashing MLK) is how he made his mark. There was even an attempt by our Democratic Party to run Carolina's coach Dean Smith against Jesse Helms in 1990. Who knows how that would have went, given that Smith was more liberal than the state at large. Also, do you realize the actual thought process behind HB2? Here's a secret: It involves municipalities and minimum wages. They knew drat well that the focus would be on the openly discriminatory parts of the legislation, allowing the pro-business parts to slip in quietly. That doesn't mean though that they won't put on a good show for their coalition of conservative northern transplants and home state Franklin Graham aficionados.
