if Tom Perez isn't spending all of his time recruiting fresh candidates from body builder competitions and teaching them to talk like the main character from an anime or 80s American cartoon, his strategy is all wrong

OTOH, maybe the people who are able to poll even with the GOP in deep red states are Bad Dems anyway

I kinda lose sight of the flow chart of who a Bad Dem is sometimes since it seems to rarely reflect on their actual political positions!

Hahaha, Now Russia is saying that the airstrike hit a rebel storage facility for dirty landmines and the reaction playing out is to frame Assad.

So the KDP is saying they don't even have $20k to help? Did they spend it all on pizza?

quote:

A Feb. 20 letter from the FEC to the party says the filing lists a $143,000 transfer from "Hillary Victory Fund." But the FEC letter says a review shows only $14,300 was disbursed.

I guess I am fortunate that I am unable to see the tweets being shared right now on account of my employer (rightfully) blocking Twitter, and that getting a rotten tooth pulled later this afternoon means I wouldn't even be in a coherent, conscious frame of mind to get properly angry at them anyway.

In a perfect world, the party would have competent leadership and dental insurance would be affordable to where a dude won't have to go twenty years since his last visit to a dentist. If I am to be miserable, at least it would be preferable to be that way because of my own body failing me, and not people.

MMOs are lightning in a bottle. They cost an obscene amount of money to produce, an obscene amount of money to run, and the market is super oversaturated with them, ESPECIALLY in the fantasy genre. It's super rare that one really picks up and becomes profitable long-term.

It's super clear they never asked actual people with knowledge of the industry because they would have told them that.

if the race is (as previously projected) a double digit blowout then the dnc is right that there is nothing they can do to impact that, and they shouldn't get involved. but if it ends up being a 1 point race they sure are going to look stupid

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.

loquacius posted:

The Supreme Court is good in theory as a non-partisan body who only cares about The Law and The Constitution and nothing else

In practice, they're basically a way for past presidents to exert influence on future presidents, which is a mixed bag as it's heavily dependent on what the political situation in the country is when a justice dies or retires. That's without even getting into the possibilities of a rogue legislative body loving with everything like the GOP did when Scalia died.

The Supreme Court would be reasonable if it had terms limits so that a president is guarantee to select a justice every four years once they are (re)elected.

if United sees a backlash it's going to be from China, not America. Weibo already has like a few million views on that incident and a ton of discussion, they're convinced the doctor was profiled because he's Chinese-appearing.

Americans are too complacent to really shift away from a cheap airline, even if a bunch of people will stop flying United, but China is a growth market and there's not nearly the same amount of inertia

Yeah I don't get mocking Clinton for wasting money in Texas and then mocking Bad Dems for not throwing money into a massively lopsided district, but I feel this may be a special case, because winning those two seats sends a big "Dems ain't dead" message.

its a well known fact that white affluent neighborhoods are often strategically placed far away from bus lines to keep blacks unfavorable elements out (See: Georgia)
