Three Olives posted:That I agree with, which is what I thought we were talking about but it seems like this whole debate is around Netanyahu, ostensibly a serious world leader, actually believes Iran would nuke Israel. That is absurd, can we not have the serious discussion of nuclear proliferation politics without entertaining this non-sense. Either Netanyahu actually believes this against all reason and as such shouldn't be taken seriously or he is playing some insane farce based on everyone else being idiots, neither is helpful. He has an election coming up and polls suggest he might not win a plurality (first dibs to cobble a coalition together) and I think that's really what this is about. Khameini wants to destroy Israel through referendum apparently  worked for California

Fried Chicken posted:Huh, I heard about it from a friend who posted it was a journal article. Jeff lied, posts died. Thanks for the correction. iirc Sarah Palin had her email account 'hacked" because her security question was something like "where are you from" and a 4chan poster guessed "Wasilla"

Polis unwinds by playing Diablo and Civ V. Jared Polis is good, one of the few openly gay members of Congress and represents the hippie wasteland of Boulder

Ghost of Reagan Past posted:There are hundreds of regulations that apply to businesses based on their size. Their argument makes no sense Their argument contradicts approximately 80 years of Supreme Court jurisprudence, at least wrt 14th Amendment (the rest is wrong too though). This is literally the definition of ordinary social and economic regulation, which is not subject to invalidation on Fourteenth Amendment grounds.

Joementum posted:In case you're curious, there's been no agreement on this yet. McConnell filed for cloture this afternoon, with a 60-threshold vote scheduled for Tuesday (there will be some executive branch confirmation votes on Monday), but the Senate stands adjourned. I'll give Congress this, no one voted against honoring the Selma marchers or preventing veteran suicides.

Also immigrant and alien have distinct meanings in the immigration code, immigrant being a subset of alien edit: The rest of the bill is pro-child murder though, so thumbs up nativists

greatn posted:That's kind of lovely. Don't punish the people of a state because they have an rear end in a top hat idiot governor. I don't really see what's wrong with it. If a state is not addressing climate change in disaster preparedness, then they're not really preparing for disaster; they're likely laundering federal money to contractors on meaningless bullshit projects.

FilthyImp posted:Thanks to conservative magic (budget cuts), state revenues are down. Walker is savaging the state college budget, but its likely he'll not pay the state debts on time to buy him an extra month or three. Walker is skipping on servicing debt that allows missed payments without causing a credit event for whatever reason so, in line with conservative Blame the Victim ideology, it's the creditors own fault for agreeing to this poo poo

ReidRansom posted:In what sounds like the absolute weakest way possible. After they solicit input from the very people they're intended to regulate, of course. And then tweak the proposed rules accordingly because they fear "regulatory overreach". Sure, it's something, I'll give them that, but it looks more like PR regulation to me. That's actually a legal requirement for rule making, and it's not that weak of a rule given personnel constraints, FINRA actually cooperates with the SEC quite a bit and flags suspicious behavior regularly.

The Missouri GOP put a bust of Rush Limbaugh in the state capitol, so literally murdering people does not seem that farfetched.

Sir Tonk posted:Wow, I really didn't think anything would be done about this until we had another *error* cause the DOW to drop by 5000 points. They've been working on these rules for at least a year, the SEC is very slow when it comes to rule making and habitually blows statutory deadlines. So if they were waiting for one of those flash crashes it'd be another half decade before a single rule was promulgated.

TheQat posted:Yeah let's make sure we ask the ones getting regulated if the regulations are ok. that's a sure path to success Guys, Guys. Notice and comment rulemaking is literally standard operating procedure for federal agencies. If they don't do it their rules are way more vulnerable to legal challenges.

When 9/11 happened I immediately knew it was perpetrated by that "beardy Iraqi dude" (much like today, I was dumb) I had read about on the terrorist most wanted list a few nights prior. That is my 9/11 throwback thursday
