  1. That came from a Democrat, didn't it? I've only seen memes this bad from the left.
  2. No, he got 15 years because Iowa has a "habitual offender" statute, and because this idiot explicitly confessed to a hate crime, it elevated the class A misdemeanor of third-degree arson to a class D felony. And since this moron had two previous felony convictions, it was his third strike, and carried a 15 year minimum. Now there's a whole lot of stupid packed in that - the unconstitutionality of "three strikes" and "habitual offender" laws, mandatory sentencing guidelines, the unconstitutionality of "hate speech" laws in general, and in this specific case. But ultimately, he wasn't given a 16 years sentence for burning a rainbow flag; he was given a 16 year sentence for violating a set of statutes that criminalizes being an inveterate shitmudgeon. And that's the discussion you should have - not about "homosexual orthodoxy," but about a statutory justice system that is demonstratively unconstitutional. But you'll discuss "homosexual orthodoxy" instead. Because you're Joe. Don't be Joe, kids.
  3. So should the officials. Bucs are getting ***** over as badly as I've ever seen.
  4. Definitely not a shots guy. But gin and tonic (with Aviation Gin, simply because I want to drink with Ryan Reynolds.)
  5. Which is why I put "obstruction of Congress" in quotes. It wouldn't have been a thing Obama could have been impeached for, except under the current standards Democrats have set. Which is what makes it the one big dangerous shitshow. Or just google "Republicans pounce." And you get stories like https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2019/02/13/the_republican_pouncing_problem_139448.html.
  6. I think my slide rule collection makes more more of a hipster douche than the Prius ever did.
  7. Not surprising. USAF is going to lose a large chunk of their budget, just like the Army did when the USAAC was spun off into the USAF. But they're going to have to learn to live with it. This is ultimately a necessary step.
  8. Didn't the Horowitz report say they found no evidence of political bias? What the ***** is this?
  9. Except in six years they had those chances, and they didn't. Not only that, they explicitly stated they wouldn't because it would strengthen Obama politically, and they were better off working through normal Congressional checks and balances. And that's despite having a case for "obstruction of Congress" and "abuse of power" that was easily as strong as the case against Trump.
  10. Nope. Santa's been impeached. Maybe. We're not sure. The elves haven't sent the articles to the Senate yet, so...
  11. It means Trump is officially guilty as charged in Democrats' eyes, because he'll never prove himself innocent. Somehow, Democrats believe this situation isn't thoroughly ***** up.
  12. Hey, they swayed Comey's mind. The whole reason he gave a press conference about Clinton's email server and refused to recommend criminal prosecution is because Russian memes convinced him not to. No, I'm not kidding. Look it up.
  13. https://thinkprogress.org/learn-to-code-decoded-the-campaign-against-laid-off-journalists-is-harassments-new-frontier-20725ddd480a/
  14. We don't indulge that sort of hate speech here. "Put them up against the wall," though, that's fine.
  15. Really? The GM bankruptcy, the Chrysler bailout, the Paris Agreement, the ACA, DACA, NLRB appointments, abuse of Title IX. And that's just Obama. Three million dollars in Facebook ads? Yes, I'll mock that. If American democracy can't survive three million in Facebook ads, we don't deserve democracy. If Hillary couldn't fight off three million in Facebook ads, she didn't deserve to be President anyway.
  16. No, because no matter how thin you slice it, it's still baloney.
  17. And white men have to sit on the bench and check their privilege.
  18. The big difference between the Facebook ads and Hillary, though, is that people in Wisconsin saw the Facebook ads...
  19. Great. A league full of Bradys.
  20. That's an impressively strong reservation desk. Well, that's nice. Here, we just sort-of half-ass our way through it, but the Saudis actually train to assassinate their leaders...
  21. Ever been bitten by a telephone pole?
  22. I can't even identify a good pair of shoes.
  23. I've been wondering about that, and I'm not entirely sure he's correct. His argument isn't necessarily wrong, but as he presents it in Bloomberg it's shallow and incomplete. Ultimately, if we're lucky, Pelosi's going to end up with this question before the Supreme Court, which will make this circus infinitely more hilarious.
