Seriously though, I'm rather pleased that nobody is trying to make Obama out to have been a great president. Yet. It'll probably happen after a few years where they'll try and re-write history to say the Obama was one of the greatest.

pretty, i think he was ok, but he will be democrat Reagan because of W being poo poo and Trump being much worse.

Ultimately, James won in the end by not even responding to the people who attacked him. People did hit pieces on him and I know a few people who weren't familiar with him who didn't watch the video all the way through and thought he was a sexist because various news articles said so.

Because most "new media" is owned and run by the same group of people, and they are directly connected to PR firms hired by Sony and others

So far Trump has killed the TPP, expanded the veterans choice act, put Gorsuch on the supreme court, put sanctions on Iran, and actually bombed syria after they used poison gas.

I'm pretty sure NAFTA is going to get re-negotiated too. Has it been 100 days yet?

By this time in his presidency Obama had just bailed out his wall street buddies.

Oh snap, Trumps got'em on the ropes:

quote:

During the 2016 Presidential campaign, Donald Trump called the North American Free Trade Agreement one of the worst trade deals in history and promised voters he would get rid of the agreement as president.

Trump attempted to do that recently when he announced he was going to withdraw from NAFTA, only to reverse that decision less than 12 hours later. Trump says due to the urging of the leaders in Canada and Mexico he is willing to renegotiate the deal.

The head of Sony Pictures handwaved criticism of a lovely movie as simple misogyny.

i dont care for ghost busters in general, 1 was funny, 2 is poo poo. all they had to do was placate the fans a bit and run the advertising and movie like Disney did with episode 7. but sony is loving terrible at movies so nope. the issue isnt the actresses, its that the studio is terrible and the director is woke hack.

the issue is the loving editing of these movies, where they improvise a scene a dozen times then the 'funniest' lines from each take are stitched together to create whatever the auditory equivalent of the uncanny valley is

This looks a lot like suffering.
Sex education is still a difficult subject to come to a consensus on. All studies show abstinence-only education is an epic fail so conservative governments have shifted towards "abstinence-centered" education where they teach some aspects of safe sex but basically hammer on STDs and promote abstinence as an awesome way to live. It is a huge faux pas in these cultures to be perceived as promoting sex for recreation or having sex with multiple partners.

Nerds are self-centered and dumb.

EA sucks but if you want to talk evil, there's Nestle, private prisons, banks and PMCs. Those are some actual, legitimately evil corporations.

It's usually the dumbest, most unimportant poo poo that people die on hills for.

Like that stupid thing with video games that happened a few years ago. You can't even mention the event by name without getting people in a tizzy. Oh, and both sides of that fight are stupid as hell. If you were on either side in that flamewar, you should be ashamed of yourself. You all know what I'm talking about and if you had a dog in that fight you should be embarrassed.
