Except for the part where it's probably apocryphal so they're just making fun of folks with speech impediments. Other than that, a cute story.

RandomBlue posted:What? Plenty of people had cable in 1993. We're not talking about the 70's or early 80's and there were 24 hour news networks. The only major thing lacking was easy access to the Internet. It was either 1993 or 1994 when The Simpsons first mentioned the Internet on TV and 94/95 is when it really started taking off for home use. CNN was around in 1993 and covered Waco as it happened. You can find footage on YouTube. Surprisingly, there's only short little clips of OKC in YouTube, mainly from local news stations.

Anecdotally, but Montana fiancee reports that she heard from a fair few people at work today that they hadn't intended to vote, but were now going to do so in order to try and ensure Greg doesn't win. She's in Bozeman so it's a liberal stronghold anyway, but given that Dems usually use because of GOTV failures, could be something? Depends on how the early voting has gone though.

BarbarianElephant posted:If you are waiting for a saint, you are going to wait a good long while. It seems to be becoming the truth that zero political record is an advantage in a politician, for the same reason that people get more excited about vaporware Kickstarter projects than finished games. That "zero political record" thing might be a little bit less of a selling point in the next couple of elections. At least among Dems.

Pretty cool that, someday in the maybe not so far future, a female journalist will be raped and killed by a Republican congressman, have it caught on audio/film, and then we'll all read how deeply troubled everyone is by it alongside thought pieces about how it was her own fault for dressing that way and asking those questions

Republicans are signaling to each other - electorate and elected officials - that they're all ok with violence. That's literally what's happening. I expect there to be a lot more and it will get a lot worse and this will be the tipping point where it starts.

When the supreme court sees a ruling that is important and in their opinion very wrong, they will grab it. The circuit split thing only becomes more relevant on less-important decisions. When a circuit court makes a ruling that is sorta meaningful, the supreme court might not bother taking it up even if they disagree, and thats when conflicting circuits might eventually force them to say "well that circuit split is sorta important, ok lets clear that up since we still have room on the calendar." Sometimes circuit courts will make conflicting rulings on something very unimportant, but the supreme court is so busy they will often go "whatever, that mildly affects like 3 people a year, we're fine with the law meaning something different in those circuits"
