Proud Christian Mom posted:Their bench is bare as gently caress because they've spent the past eight years losing 1,000+ seats nationwide and clearing the field for She Who Will Not Be Named. Anyone simultaneously young and exciting is either co-opted or tossed out of the party. Even Obama had to fight for it, and he was no spring chicken.

bird food bathtub posted:Ok, so we're not as far down the crazy bug gently caress rabbit hole as I thought. My immediate reaction was "you mean that punched Nazi? Yeah sure why the hell not it's 2017 and I can see Trump doing it just to 'make liberals mad' " I think it's at least possible Trump thought they were the same guy.

I wasn't allowed on site while my clearance was in progress. Apparently I didn't make the cut for a waiver? Eight months, full salary, doing nothing for no one, spending my time however I wanted. Consulting is a scam.

Mr. Nice! posted:Absolutely right, but that's not the point. Clinton didn't have private prison imates working for her. One of the Arkansas work programs for prisoners was to function as stewards/caretakers of the governor's mansion. This is worlds apart from modern private prison contracting to work for private companies and exploit minor drug offenders as free labor. It's not apples and oranges: the prisoners were not paid for these work programs, and were punished if they refused to participate, and anyone who used their labor saved money. At any rate, the truly blood-curdling bit is not that Clinton lived in a mansion whose grounds were kept by legal slaves, it's what she had to say on the subject in the book. I highly recommend tracking the excerpt down either in text or audiobook form. People are posting it all over. She calls it a long-standing tradition, assures the reader that she and Bill reported even minor infractions to the overseers, discusses the parts of the brain responsible for impulse control, all but says that they seemed remarkably human. Forgive me for not posting it myself, I plead the phoneth.

Mr. Nice! posted:I've read the excerpt. Okay, then you know the whole story. I'm not interested in convincing anyone their take is wrong, and even more not interested in pillorying Hillary. The only current event is, a lot of people are having bizarre arguments about it online. quote:There was zero she could have done to change the situation Well, that might underestimate the influence of the governor and his wife.

Larry Parrish posted:Dont worry Bruh. Barry O bailed out the pieces of poo poo who intentionally inflated the housing market Was just listening to this radio piece about Donnie's very-good-friend Tom Barrack, who made tons in the real estate bubble, called it a bubble in 2005, pulled out before the crash, then bought thousands of foreclosed properties across the country to rent out, then bundled those into good ol' mortgage-backed securities. By the end of the story, he's completely pulled out of real estate again. This is fine. Everything's fine!

The press corps has just been transcriptionists and now the media has to actually dig to find facts instead of relying on conferences. Thanks, Donald!
