I was surprised Rubio's dumb counter-argument to Jon bringing up seatbelt laws as an analogy for the ACA was "but that's a health issue!" instead of something like "putting on a seatbelt doesn't cost taxpayers anything." It would have been somewhat valid and wouldn't have left him wide open for Jon mocking him for not thinking loving health care is a health issue.

I just found out a friend of mine is anti-abortion-rights. :( Ironically she volunteers at a rape crisis center and is fairly pro-feminism. She's just pretty naive and her dad is a typical bigoted religious South Carolina conservative. I don't want to belabor the issue but I keep trying to figure out how to explain to her that being pro-choice has nothing to do with "pro-abortion," it's about giving women access to have the procedure safely instead of severely risking their lives when they do it anyway.

Hahaha does anybody know that Brownback guy's justification for allowing gays to be fired or harassed? How can it be anything other than "gays ew"? Or was he just too cowardly to release a statement with his order?

"There's 'only' a 40% percent chance that last year was the hottest year ever loving recorded."

Like holy poo poo, that should be alarming to normal people. What about the odds that it was in the top two? Top five? That's still loving serious. Idiots like him are going to be the death of the human race.

Gonna say the same thing I said about this last year-- You hear conservatives talk all the time about being the party of charity and morality, yet you don't see any huge events like this coming from that side.

Kinda hard to blame him, the real idiots are the voters.
Not that hard. Lie a bunch to get backers to get into office, continue lying once you're there to convince dumb voters to keep you in power. :words: "But both sides do it!" yeah sure but don't act like lying about science, welfare, and health care isn't significantly more destructive to people.

The Samantha Bee bit where she tried to get republicans to say the word choice will forever be my favorite Daily Show moment.
I really enjoyed the John Oliver bits where they went to the RNC convention at a luxury resort in Hawaii-- which was at the time using the ACA model for health care-- and let a ton of conservatives complain about fiscal responsibility and the horrors of expanded healthcare.

edit: Found it. Linking to DailyKOS is easier than linking to each video individually.

Has anyone actually seen a selfie stick in the wild?
Lots of tourists, vacationers, and college kids here so yes. I also consciously refer to it as "in the wild" because it seems like the most appropriate way.

The line comparing watching football for Star Wars to chewing through the box to get to a pizza was a good 'un.
The new title of the CineD Star Wars thread comes from somebody sincerely asking if halftime occurred once both teams hit a certain number of points.

The part of the thread that happened during the first half was the funniest it's been in months.

How long until half time? Is it at a certain point threshold or something?

The hilarious GDT portion of the thread when TFF shows up starts around that same page.
