DC Tom

Apparently there's a new one, that says something along the lines of "Since vaccines by definition cause an immune response, which includes an inflammatory reaction, there's a theoretical possibility - that has never been observed, mind you - that someone might have received some cerebral effects from a shot once." Which the anti-vaxxer crowd immediately jumped on with the Batman-v-Superman-esque observation of "If there's even a one percent chance we have to treat it as an absolute certainty!" Because when you're interpreting a bulk statistical probability of risk, you really want to be guided by Ben Affleck's awkward performance in the DCU.

Doesn't matter. She appeals inside the DNC. And they mistakenly believe what appeals to them in their little bubble should appeal to everyone, and those that don't find her appealing can be ignored for being racist misogynistic deplorables only suitable for reeducation. The Democrats have learned nothing from losing to Trump. They can't even put a tenth the energy the expend in outrage in to introspection.

We used to have at least one moron here who wasn't just an anti-vaxxer, but was a hopeopathic vaxxer. He insisted the most effective flu vaccine was the homeopathic pills he used, which demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of homeopathy, vaccination, the flu, the human body, and reality in general. It was actually rather amazing.

There actually aren't. CO2 has a several-centuries span of persistence in the atmosphere (compare to methane, which has a much stronger greenhouse effect but persists for a decade, or water vapor, which is stronger but persists for days). If we killed all the farting cows now, methane levels drop by 2030. If we stop all CO2 production now, CO2 levels drop by 2200. The planet cooks until then. Basically, climate change politics is bull#### because while every plan is still about stopping or reversing global warming, we're well past the point of reversing it. We needed to shift thinking from prevention to remediation of effects about 30 years ago.

Because nobody ever asked the Duke Lacrosse players about the rape accusation against them ever again.

"Firewater" in her culture.

Warren's close. She has all of the weaselly dishonesty, craven machinations, and megalomaniacal senses of destiny and certitude of Hillary. She just lacks personality traits of being a soul-stealing Gorgon from the depths of Hell that would make her interesting.

Kamala Harris is the heir apparent, though. The Technicolor Dreamcoat coverage made that clear. It's Her Turn this time. Hell, they can even reuse the same bumper stickers.

People have to remember that he won in 2016 largely because despite being the second-worst candidate ever to run for President, the Democrats somehow managed to find the worst. That's not likely to happen again. But it is the DNC, so it's not impossible, either.

Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign will face the scrutiny Clinton got in 2016. Oh, he should be so lucky...

The sheeple are being cloned! WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!!...er, sheeple-clones...whatever...

As opposed to Greenwich Village Carthage or East Harlem Carthage...

So how many people are free and clear of any suit, because they didn't pay ***** for Twitter?

Reports are the driver was smirking...

I would find it more likely that They would clone him, kill him, and have his clone strike a deal.

Sitting presidents can't be indicted because they have official immunity, much as Congress members do. They first must be impeached and removed from office. THEN they can be indicted. bull####. Bull. *****. Bull*****ingshit. (Take that, profanity filter!)

Mostly because it reads like a pre-law student wrote it, compared to other filings I've read.

I hope the Democrats go in to full on "but she won the popular vote" meltdown mode...but I expect weeks of progressive attempts to reinvent the English language to rationalize this report something it isn't, which will be nauseating.

Of course not. Doesn't mean he doesn't deserve it.

Have you SEEN your posts? You are one ####### that deserves all the ***** they get.

Imagine? Go to Portland, or Bezerkley, and you'll witness it. We just never hear it, because it doesn't earn one iota of attention from celebrity culture or the mainstream media...or, when it does, it's along the lines of "Cracker deserved it."

I'm a little too busy to read all that, but I don't want to be caught shirking my responsibilities again, so I'm just going to say you're both idiots.

There has to be some intelligence threshold, given that a "hoax" requires a formed intent to deceive. The moon landing, 9/11, Gwenyth Paltrow winning an Oscar, Nutella being edible...all are "hoaxes" in that They actively engaged in a disinformation campaign designed to mislead the public (e.g. we never landed on the moon, the Twin Towers are still there, Gwenyth Paltrow has all the acting range of wilted celery, and Nutella is basically congealed motor oil). I'll admit it's a low minimum level of intelligence, to formulate the intent to deceive. And it doesn't take the brain power of a Harvey Weinstein or...the inventor of Nutella, whoever that ####### is - to conceive and perpetrate a hoax. But I submit that the failure to understand that reflections in mirrors are reversed is below that minimum.

How do you know when you're a massive ***** idiot? When you're outsmarted by the ***** idiots on Morning Joe.

My opinion - at the time and now - was that it shouldn't be considered a "hoax," as anyone who carves their face backwards is far too stupid to be credited with the ability to fake anything.
