Aint No Right

Think how it feels being sane and living right in the middle of all of them.

As someone who's local news comes from Ohio, I see pretty much everything Kasich does. He's way more dangerous than you all seem to realize.

Haven't you guys been saying this in reference to Strays?

A lot different than saying no one's heard of him, and he has no connection to music.

...but he's always seemed like the sort of person that would be good with his money.

Obama gets to appoint his replacement. I'm sure the Republicans will try to block any nominee, but 10 months is a long time to go without a full Supreme Court.

Well first the Chicago cop that shot the two people at Christmas time, sues the victim's family for $10M Now the city of Cleveland is suing the family of Tamir Rice for medical expenses: http://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2016/02/10/the-city-of-cleveland-filed-a-probate-court-credito...

The political candidates saying they're "suspending their campaign" when they are dropping out, and the media playing along. Suspending is temporary, they're not suspending it, they're ending it.

Hard to call Joe a "non lead singer" as he sings about 1/3 of their songs.

Now Trump is a certified "loser."

Is caucusing done only in Iowa or is it in every state?

A few states do. In my state the Republicans caucus, but the Democrats have a Primary....and not even the same month.

Here's a list: http://frontloading.blogspot.com/p/2016 ... endar.html

Paul Kantner of Jefferson Airplane (74) today.

You think this might be because everyone's getting old?

The bullshit of CBS advertising the stupor bowl as the "most historic broadcast of all time." Yeah, that first Telstar broadcast, first moon landing, 9/11, etc. all trivial compared to a football game that will draw a worldwide audience a fraction of what each of 19 Formula 1 races this past year dr...

These idiots need to be arrested, and shot if they resist. They wrap themselves in the Constitution, but clearly have no concept of what it actually is. It sets forth the framework for the Government, and lawmaking, not a list of all of the laws that can ever be. Clearly the only part they've ever r...

I think Dave is a lot more recognized than you would think. He's always seemed to find a way to remain in the public consciousness. I know more than a few people that know who he is from all of the bad TV he's done over the last several years, and are completely oblivious to Jane's Addiction. 25 ye...

I wonder how differently the election would turn out if everyone in the USA was forced by law to vote... instead of just whinging about what the other / next / previous guy did / didn't / will / won't.... Yeah, that would really go over with Republicans that put so much effort into making sure peop...

I'm sure his billionaire buddies that make money off of the causes going unaddressed.

IThis is not a question germane only to a standoff in Oregon. It’s a question that applies to each and every one of us. If you’re reading this, you probably own a smartphone. You think you justly own your phone and that it’s wrong for the government or anyone else to take it from you. But why is yo...

These idiots are a bunch of clowns. This land they want "returned" is land the government bought up above market value, mo...

Ah, I think you answered it with your first response. 75% of Americans believe in God so would never vote for an atheist in the first place. I wonder what would happen if all candidates were atheists. It would just never happen. Because absolutely any unqualified moron could enter the election babb...

Unfortunately too many people can't see that.

His financial strategy has been filing bankruptcy often. He'd find you can't do that with the national debt. And his plan to lower taxes (but just for the wealthy, and big corporations) and his stated intentions to greatly expand the military and "bomb the shit" out of half the other countries on th...

I think the fundamental difference was that Hitler was actually quite intelligent. That I can certainly agree with, and almost pointed that out myself. Trump is dumb as a rock, and tells whopper lies which he stands by despite overwhelming proof to the contrary. Unfortunately that is an asset with ...

Do you really think Hitler had that from day one?

What matters isn't whether Trump was taught about Nazism in school or not, but whether voters were, and care. True dat. Although I'm sure a lot of people have a short memory. Or were just never taught about 30s Germany, and/or are too stupid to put two and two together. Or again, just don't care, b...

I can agree that things are fucked up here, but not in comparison to most other states.

Keep in mind that you are using statistics to form an opinion, while I am merely using them to try to back up what I have observed in 44 years of living here, and having been all over it.
