Night10194 posted:I figured he'd start cooling off eventually but I think he'll remain angry about this up until he loses the second one, too. He isn't angry, he is calm! Probably one of the calmest, and lots of people, smart people, the smartest people, have said how calm he is. You wouldn't even believe how calm he is about this, way calmer than Crooked Hillary.

My favorite thing about Bill Watterson is that the most overt political stand he ever took was against rigid newspaper comic section formatting.

NASA announcements are super fun for laypeople but less fun for scientists because people in the field have often been paying attention and know either the results beforehand through colleagues or assumed them based on the nature of the experiment announcing them.

UFOTofuTacoCat posted:I really enjoyed this part from last night. It makes me laugh. That should be the takeaway from this debate. Kaine bringing up solid issues and fears about Trump and Pence dismissing them like never happened then attacking Hillary for stuff conservatives imagine Obama did. Republicans are scum garbage people.

Who are anti-abortion people voting for in this election? Trump clearly doesn't care and the only reason anyone would think he would be against abortions is that he is running as an R, and Johnson should be ideologically against regulations on Dr procedures (though I'm sure he isn't) This should be the first election in a long time where anti-abortion people aren't being painfully pandered to and should release them from their idiotic moral obligation to blindly pull the R lever.

disjoe posted:Obama also, unfortunately, played a huge role in shutting down the Yucca Mountain repository. Obviously it was for political reasons, but it's really dumb policy and is something I'm disappointed in him about. We should be reprocessing the spent fuel rods anyway so it is probably good we haven't buried them under thousands of tons of concrete just yet.

woke wedding drone posted:That's how he won it in the eyes of pundits who think they matter. To regular voters, he won it by laughing in Paul Ryan's face and having a genuine affect in comparison to Ryan's sociopathic one. Also Ryan for some reason challenged him to a game of "who has felt more deep personal loss"

disjoe posted:Oh I agree but we still need a facility like Yucca anyway, and Obama's DOE has wasted tremendous amounts of time and money on what is ultimately a dumb hill to die on. Yeah but we don't actually need it right now. We need it in a decade after we've recovered all the useful fuel from the spent rods and are only left with useless radioactive slag.

Justin Timberwolf posted:Yes, the entire world was begging for it. The entire strategy was "blow up armored elements from the air" so once those elements are gone the strategy is complete. You don't need to "exit" because you weren't ever there. It's based on the (arguable) theory that America doesn't have a role nation building. I think Libya went well all things considered. Compare it to Iraq.

I think Libya is actually the shining moment of Obama/Clinton foreign policy. If we were as isolationist as Johnson or Trump wants to be there would be a massacre worse than that in Syria and we'd still have Gaddafi. If we were more interventionist like Bush 2 we would have another thousand dead GIs and a government that was being constantly undermined and attacked for being created by the US government. It wasn't a good situation, there weren't any perfect solutions, but the only thing most people remember is that four Americans died in a wild feverish conspiracy.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:I have no idea how to reconcile things like this with my opposition to the death penalty. I sincerely wish we'd taken Bin Laden alive and put him on trial, but maybe I'm naive. What would that trial even have been, could it possibly have been fair, would there have been any verdict but death at the end of it anyway. Yeah foreign policy is one of those things that is unimaginably easier to be sitting on the sidelines critiquing what is happening than actually making the calls with imperfect information trying to salvage some sort of respectable outcome to a super lovely situation. Some decisions are stupid and end up being really dumb, but others only look dumb because can't see the other possible outcomes, just the one that happened. I don't understand how conservatives can give Bush2 the benefit of the doubt with Iraq (which went horribly and was forced by Bush) and yet be so critical of Obama in Libya (where a civil war started without American intervention and it ended up going fine all things considered). Oh wait yes I can they are stupid people who are horrible.

bobjr posted:Has Hillary even said anything about video games recently? I've heard a few people around my age mention that as a reason they aren't voting for her, but they're also manchildren who complain about the evils of feminism so it's not like I'm surprised. As far as I know the last time she really did anything about them was 11 years ago in 2005, and it focused entirely on limiting the purchase age for things rated M or A to those over 18. I can imagine your idiot friends were under 18 around then and remember hating her for making them ask their parents if they could buy GTA and haven't forgiven her or progressed mentally beyond then in the intervening decade.

I remember being in 3rd grade learning what impeachment was because it is a rare historic event and they thought we should know. I also remember being in 9th grade and hearing kids complain about soccer practice being cancelled because some dumb buildings fell down in new york.

Why is everyone so excited about 3+ political parties? The primary system exists so you get a stronger voice in the general election candidates already. Just because no one votes in primaries doesn't mean we only get two candidates. People keep quoting the founding fathers saying two parties are bad yet neglect that we've had two party presidential elections for basically all of them.

The federal government already prepared to provide immediate relief? A massive campaign of warnings and evacuations preceding the storm? A competent president who has also been pushing for infrastructure funding and severe weather preparation for nearly a decade? Exactly like Katrina!

So once Trump inevitably loses without spending the majority of his war chest, can he use the remainder to parade around lavishly using Trump owned companies for the next four years?

Like honestly he may have stumbled into political campaigning as an extremely lucrative business. Scare white hick morons about people who are the wrong color to them and tell them he will make them safe and America Great Again for a low low monthly campaign contribution of $25.

gfsincere posted:The DUI didn't do much because there's millions of people with DUIs and most people with DUIs only have one, and don't think they should be judged as a bad person forever based on it, AND everyone seems to know a friend they like that has one, so they didn't judge him negatively based on it. Also because it was immediately framed as a "really minor" DUI and no one challenged it. His campaign staff said Bush was just barely over the limit and was pulled over for "driving too slowly," like he was actually being a really courteous drunk driver, and also he was just a dumb kid at the time. In reality since it was in 1976 he probably had a BAC of like 1.2 and was charged after driving off the road and crashing into a hedge, and he was 30.

Trump could literally grab a woman at the town hall and sexually assault her on live television and he would still get ~30% of the vote.

Minimalist Program posted:If you think this kind of self-depreciation is what Donald Trump mean then buddy, you haven't been paying attention. He is lamenting the fact that he tried to woo over the woman's heart with a display of wealth and knowledge (like a bitch) instead of doing what he should have done (grabbed her in the pussy).

Captain Stalin posted:And the craziest thing about it, is that most, if not all of the republicans are going to stick by this guy. They are BAD PEOPLE. Republicans do not care about others, about America as a nation, or about anything around them. They are lazily trapped in a soothing bubble of misinformation and have no desire or curiosity to learn about anything. They are bad and should feel bad. How are people just now realizing this? Months ago there was a woman who literally said "He could shoot a man in the middle of the street and I'd still vote for him," then after a brief pause where she must have realized that she is literally a sociopath monster, she corrected herself "well maybe as long as he just wounds him."

I'm still smiling at the idea of Republicans frantically trying to get people to look away from their childish boorish idiot and his blatently inappropriate sexist comments by holding up a long boring political quote that is sort of difficult to understand why it is bad.
