Even hardcore fringe Bernouts look at Stein for a second then go LOL NO 90% of the time. The left alternatives to the Democrats are garbage tier to an astonishing degree.

I think the Right is completely out of touch with reality and only know the caricature of Obama and Hillary. Like I am pretty sure the Trump debate prep is just Laura Ingraham doing the tak-radio version of Hillary where she stammers incoherently and collapses from her HEALTH ISSUES while Trump just says whatever he thinks. To be fair, the left did this about Bush. It's why Kerry hosed up that debate so terribly and got absolutely torched by Dubya with "you forgot Poland."

He also famously didn't write a concession speech and instead spent a poo poo load of money on victory fireworks. Yeah. People close to Obama have said he respects McCain, but thinks Romney's an rear end in a top hat prick. -- Unrelated, a very good article by my colleague Jim Nolan on policing and racism: http://theconversation.com/how-american-policing-fails-neighborhoods-and-cops-63302

Expect the Republicans to switch the topic from Trump's god-awfulness to the tyrannical Obama administration after the FDA announces ban on Anti-Bacterial soap.ArsTechnica posted:In a final ruling announced Friday, the Food and Drug Administration is pulling from the market a wide range of antimicrobial soaps after manufacturers failed to show that the soaps are both safe and more effective than plain soap. The federal flushing applies to any hand soap or antiseptic wash product that has one or more of 19 specific chemicals in them, including the common triclosan (found in antibacterial hand soap) and triclocarbon (found in bar soaps). Manufacturers will have one year to either reformulate their products or pull them from the market entirely. I have memories of the incandescent lightbulb debate.

US prison terms are absolutely insane compared to the rest of the world. I realize that not everyone gets the maximum penalty but it should not even be an option. Like the guy in the article who got 12 years for selling pills, that's just nuts. The other thing that gets me is the insane disparity between the financial penalties and the prison terms. Like I see tons of laws where the maximum penalty is $500-1000 and 3 years in prison. Like maybe if it's actually worth sticking someone in prison for 3 years over it might be worth more than a $500 fine? The fine is of course the reasonable punishment and the prison term is the unreasonable one, but it just makes it blatantly obvious how nuts our prison sentences are.

It's because our prisons are used to punish minorities and poor people for daring to exist, not for what prisons are actually supposed to be used for.
