Ben Garrison is yet another in a long long line of idiots who think "manly" is something defined by others and immobile, that to be "manly" has a single definition. In their tiny world you can be true to yourself, confident, stand up against terrible odds, weather any storm, be a rock in a sea of storms and STILL not be "manly" because you're not wearing the "manly" uniform created decades ago by Hollywood writers and movie makers.
It reminds me of my favorite quote of all time by C.S. Lewis: “When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

In other words Ben Garrison is pathetic.

I can't really see why, other than that she's a great whip who consistently keeps near-right weirdos from breaking the party line on important issues.

I think that what Mr. Fish is trying to say is that while culturally we're advancing, eventually the progressives will lose power and all that will be left are the apes Trump supporters.

That may be overly generous, though.

But in this analogy, the progressives blew themselves up and left the world to the Trump supporters.

I wonder what standards jury impartiality is held to when the target is an insanely public figure (assuming Mueller is aiming at the top right from the start). How do you find an entire Grand Jury's worth of people who don't already have a strong opinion on the administration?

Federal grand jury selection is completely random. There are zero screenings or questions asked. They pick 23 people and 12 standbys and then they serve for ~18 months.

A grand jury hearing the case could have formed months before the election.

RacistGuidingLight posted:

That was my point, yes. You shouldn't be giving Nazis the validity of an argument. Since for half a year the media did, they have a higher place at the table than you. Organize against them if they bother you, but have something stronger than a list of inconsistencies if you do.

Duke Igthorn posted:

Aaaaaaaaagain: where was I engaging them in debate? Did I address them in anyway?
So, with that in mind, was I debating the author of the comic, a person who is not here and will never see my response, or was I highlighting his ignorance for everyone to see and hopefully prevent impressionable people from falling into the trap of either believing his nonsense or not having a retort when confronted by this bullshit?

Keeping in mind that I'm not REALLY responding to you, but grandiosely going in for an easy dunk on your displayed ignorance
Also, you know, I'm in a thread specifically devoted to talking about political cartoons talking about political cartoons. Which you seem to be all aghast about.
