lol if you think Clinton and Sanders won't have to answer stupid questions like this already. The sitting president has had to defend his birth for years, we went down this path years ago.

Fox will bring up Bernie's 'honeymoon' to the Soviet Union from time to time.

Seems like overkill for a campaign winning by double digits, yeesh. Is Sanders sticking to his ban on negativity or has he got third parties attacking Clinton?

The worst he's done so far is imply that Clinton's not liberal enough.

Since Bernie came out with his social justice platform, the proper retort has indeed turned into "it doesn't matter what he does or says, he's clearly a racist, he's just trying to hide it now."

No I'm pretty sure Bernie is a racist, here's a sentence I cherry picked out of article that is immediately disproved by the proceeding sentence.

What the gently caress even is the point of having a complete triad now? To keep bomber pilots hopeful of doing something more than cargo duty?

Seriously, what delivery capabilities of a nuclear payload does a B-52 provide that an ICBM or SRBM off a sub not already provide? Not even touching on the ludicrousness of being in a nuclear weapons race with loving no one but ourselves.

Eh at least the B-52 can double as a heavy non-nuclear bomber.

MODESTO, Calif. (AP) � He strutted, he gobbled and he puffed up his feathers like his life depended on it. And it did.

The turkey's outgoing personality and good looks helped spare him from the Thanksgiving plate. The bird, named Tom One, was chosen for a presidential pardon from a dozen finalists Thursday at a Northern California farm.

The bird will board a flight called Turkey One in San Francisco to head to the White House ceremony with President Barack Obama ahead of the holiday. After that, he will be sent to live at a farm in Virginia.

So hey, you know that part in Bioshock 3, where they substitute Founding Fathers into religious tableaus and iconography? And how this is used as a stark way of pointing out that the group has adopted a similar form of Franco's Christian Fascism, marrying nativism, national mythos, and fundamentalist christianity into an authoritarian power system? And how the whole thing is meant as an over the top satire of veneration of historical figures and a criticism of such authoritarian tendencies?

Guess what Indiana is no poo poo for real completely unironically doing?

Like I'm not even particularly religious, and this offends me as sacrilegious.
