Get smart middle schoolers to ask the questions, and let them follow up. Old enough to know when they're being lied to, young enough to not care about holding their tongue.

redscare posted:$200 is pretty drat cheap for a unique piece of sports memorabilia. People spend far more money on dumber and more destructive things. Like rigging elections. Also, I'm fairly certain that it is, in fact, an ownership share of the team. As a non-profit, all money gets funneled back into the team, but you vote for the Packers' board of directors. Maybe I'm a big ol' softie but I think it's kinda neat that a sports team can still be fan and community owned in the United States.

For context, this guy is challenging Lindsay Graham in the primary. Any word on how he's doing? Because if he got nominated-- or even elected-- he would be a gold mine for Dems for years and years and years.

We might see a revival of death penalty in politics in the next few cycles-- Oklahoma, who was so deadset on killing two inmates that they were going to do a double execution tonight using drugs of unknown provenance after threatening their own Supreme Court, has temporarily delayed the second inmates execution, citing time constraints. The reason was that the first inmate writhed, struggled, and moaned for an hour before he eventually had a massive heart attack. In front f an AP reporter who live tweeted it. Edit: NYT article on it: http://nyti.ms/1rM1A5E Teddybear fucked around with this message at 01:46 on Apr 30, 2014 |

If the Supreme Court explicitly ignored a constitutional amendment passed as a direct reaction to their case, then that's a constitutional crisis resolvable more or less only by impeaching them. They wouldn't be that dumb.
