  1. Sad. I thought you were one of the good ones. Enjoy supporting racist monuments.
  2. This is much better than the Cardinals' grandstanding PR move.
  3. You think we should take down his monument, then?
  4. Dude, they were racists. How can we sit here and debate if we should honor his heritage? I mean, he's arguably the most obvious and well known example of a racist in our nation's history. This is really sad coming from you, birddog.
  5. What about Jefferson and the crew? Should we take down their monuments?
  6. I thought it was once they made that machine that made anything out of nothing? The Replicator? That's where the Replicator comes into play. Greggy's onto something here.
  7. Both of your opinions are bad. The clear champ and it isn't even close.
  8. Huh? Many folks oppose Trump. The networks, the media talking heads, the system in general. Obama never dealt with the amount heat thrown at Trump. To some folks, that lends credence to the guy, IMO. You're seeing a similar thing with Bernie. Claims of DNC corruption. The whole "outsider" angle. IMO, the political climate, or perceived political climate, has never been so anti-system as it is now. Folks are sick of D and R. They're sick of shutdowns, real and imaginary. The political counterculture is what's driving both of those candidates. As an aside, I am convinced a hefty number of Trump supporters (not voters mind you, but folks who support him on media platforms) are doing it partly out of combined spite and cynicism. Let's vote for the crazy celebrity because !@#$ it. They aren't supporting an actual candidate, but a government suicide. It's no coincidence that the loons in the dark corners of the internet like 4chan are full of Trump propaganda.
  9. I think it's because he resonates with the disillusioned.
  10. That's not what he did all year. Which is why this narrative got as much play as it did.
  11. I think WEO wasn't blaming McCoy as much as saying McCoy could stop this terrible narrative by not responding to questions about it.
  12. How is it a faulty comparison? In both cases, you are using force to remove the money they have earned (or married into, **** I totally !@#$ed this one up).
  13. So if you did vote yes to mugging a rich woman to give her money to the poor, it's not your fault it happened?
  14. WRONG. You're the one who voted in those elected representatives. You are at fault here. This cognitive dissonance of "it's the government, not me" is a major problem. You believe that just because other folks vote that way, you aren't culpable. You are. You don't have clean hands just because someone else is holding the gun. You told them to stick up the rich folks. Ignoring the obvious logistical problems, what is your moral stance on the purse snatching, if it was put to a standard popular vote?
  15. If you saw Bill Gates' wife walking down the street, would you steal her purse to give it to the homeless?
  16. I believe I know what Tasker's trying to get at. Is your argument for 52% taxation of the rich that you feel they have a responsibility to the poor, and you feel so strongly about this that you are willing to force them at gunpoint to hand over ~50% of their income to distribute as you see fit? A Robin Hood-type? Ends justify the means?
  17. There he goes. Don Banks ‏@DonBanks 6m6 minutes ago Breaking: Can confirm Jim Schwartz has agreed to be Eagles new offensive coordinator. Deal not signed yet, but done. Don Banks ‏@DonBanks 5m5 minutes ago Correction, defensive coordinator for Schwartz. Obviously. My bad. Don Banks ‏@DonBanks 3m3 minutes ago Eagles have a new Defensive coordinator in Jim Schwartz. Deal is not yet signed, but agreement in place.
  18. Dork, just to be clear, do you believe it's "fair" to pay disproportionately more in taxes if you make more money? How many yachts can you waterski behind?
  19. "I think there's a slight left-to-right break..."
  20. Indeed. Under Bernie's proposed "plan" I was debating if it'd be even worth it to make $10M.
  21. Aw c'mon, Kelly knows I'm joking around with him.
  22. Whaley?!?!?! The pieces are falling into place....
