My recollection is that the whole "low information" thing started when a study came out showing that Fox News viewers were generally less well informed about current events. Rush and others seized on the phrase as a form of "NO U" and now it's their term for people who aren't sufficiently fired up over the latest derp.

The conservative Pope hatred is just boiling over now that he's announced he's stepping into the global warming fight this year. (also: that's a really lovely caricature of Francis. He's got some lines in his face, but he doesn't have huge saggy jowls like that.)

Jerusalem posted:All I know about O'Malley is that he was the inspiration for Carcetti on The Wire, and that unfairly makes me terrified of ever seeing him become President. I know it's dumb to make predictions two years in advance, but here goes anyway: O'Malley has zero chance of making it to the presidency. He has no Obama-style charisma and his record as governor is ... shaky (his Lt. Gov. ran to succeed him last year and lost to an unknown Republican).

Doonesbury is in reruns Monday-Saturday, although they're not reprinting every strip -- it's more a "Best Of" thing. They're currently up to the late 70s and Mike and JJ's first date. Trudeau still does original strips for Sunday. Markovnikov posted:Could I get a link on all this mess?

Ralepozozaxe posted:Can someone provide some info on this Sen. Burr torture report thing? Burr (R-NC) is the new chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Last week he demanded that the executive branch (including the White House, FBI, CIA, etc.) return all its copies of the torture report to the committee. Remember, the full torture report has not been publicly released -- the details we already have on the torture program are just from the summary of the report. Burr's intention is almost certainly to make sure the full report never sees the light of day.

But he's a super-mega-hyper-stud who can make women squee just by quoting lines from his, I mean Sam Elliott's, movies. I don't think Skye is banging Zed's dad though. More likely she's gonna try, he's going to reject her humiliatingly, and everyone will spend a week or so making sick burns on what a worthless liberal slut she is.

But it's not "women," is it? It's Sarah Palin, who did indeed make a dumb incoherent speech that had even her supporters backing away slowly. Why do you think the cartoonist is using Palin to represent her entire gender?

Is it a red-state thing or is he just making poo poo up? Muir seems to think that Texas is just the awesomest (see also: Zed constantly sucking down Shiner Bock), so I guess it makes a demented sort of sense that in the DbD world, all the ladies love a Texan.

alnilam posted:Honestly I don't watch any TV news at all, does MSNBC talk poo poo on Fox then? Isn't that the stock market channel? That's CNBC. MSNBC is allegedly the liberal alternative to Fox since it has Rachel Maddow, Al Sharpton, Ed Schultz, Chris Hayes, et al., doing opinion shows. Of course, from what I understand at MSNBC the line between news and opinion shows is drawn a lot firmer than it is at Fox.

Indian reservations have been used as fronts to evade taxes and regulation on cigarettes, gambling, loansharking, etc. These industries are often of questionable benefit to the Indians themselves and in some cases have brought organized crime to the reservations.
