They mention in the article that it's cooked until it starts to brown, then they close the pressure cooker and set it to 12 pounds of pressure for 10 minutes. I've looked around for a pressure fryer, and nothing designed for the home that I've seen is either practical or safe-looking. Sanders apparently invented the pressure fryer by modifying a normal pressure cooker - something I dare not attempt myself. That has "house fire" written all over it.

Racists who no longer have to shovel their driveways.

I liked this part from the original article: "The organization that pushed for the higher minimum wage, 15 Now Seattle, wouldn’t comment directly on the closing to Q13 and didn’t offer any sign of sympathy. “Restaurants open and close all the time, for various reasons,” Director Jess Spear said." So not only do they not know much about business, they don't care either. Nothing like a little audacity with your ignorance.

Nowadays, a lot of southerners are actually northerners that got sick of all the bullcrap back home.

The funny part is that Krugman is a Nobel Prize winning economist, and he's calling for increased government spending when we already have an annual budget deficit of $438 billion and an accumulated national debt of $19.5 trillion. Milton Friedman must be spinning in his grave so rapidly that he's generating an underground vortex. Just for grins, the national debt clock: http://www.usdebtclock.org/

I guess it was the "George W" that threw me off. Hell, for all I know he could have been referring to George Washington. It's difficult to know what someone's talking about when they themselves don't seem to know, y'know?

Man, that sure brings back memories.

Could it be because Putin and Trump have recently expressed a mutual admiration for each others' leadership skills?

Because everyone knows a bi-curious female taco character in an animated film should speak with a more appropriate accent, like eastern European, or possibly African. Does anyone here remember when the left jumped championed the freedom of expression of the artist who made a piece consisting of a crucified Christ in a jar of urine? My, how times change.

Not when the Lesbian is rich and white. If Ellen was a black Lesbian of average means, then that would be different.

Bush was Governor of Texas from 1994 until he won the presidency in 2000 - two terms.

Complete bullcrap. There are millions of law abiding gun owners in this country. You may as well say that we can't have prescription drugs in this country because some people will die from abusing them.

or "Marklar":

I would add that Obama is extremely charismatic on camera, and I would imagine it's even stronger in person. As I'm sure most people are aware, charisma counts for an awful lot in politics.

But the Koch brothers are the evil ones.....

Damn, Tom's got great aim!

Best one-sentence synopsis of the ACA I've seen to date.

Since it's (or at least it was before the ACA) entirely up to an employer whether or not to offer health insurance as part of an employee's compensation, you would support making it illegal to do so? Don't misunderstand - they could always just offer the cash equivalent, but would you really support denying them the option to provide coverage as part of the employees' salary?

Never underestimate the power of a free hat.

Sure, repeal and replace - but replace with what? Another government-designed monstrosity? Insurance is one of the factors in rising health care costs, so less insurance? No insurance? Juror was asking for substantive alternatives - I think we all agree that the ACA sucks. I happen to believe that too much legislation, regulation, and getting away from the concept of the old fashioned family doctor is largely to blame. What do you think?

Don't speak that way about your twin.

LA does not play the race or gender card, and he didn't do so in the post you're criticizing him over. He's stating a fact - that if you criticize either Obama or Hillary for any reason, you are likely to be called either sexist or racist by a segment of their supporters in an intellectually vacuous attempt at making your criticism irrelevant via character assassination. LA probably brings it up because he's sick of hearing that crap - I sure as hell am.

A couple of weeks or so ago, I was sitting at the bar down the street when a discussion about the shootings at the Dallas BLM parade started. I said that I thought it was ironic that the victims were only there to keep order so the protestors could march unmolested in support of their cause. A young girl - maybe 22 or so - said (verbatim) "that's because of your cis-gendered, white-privilege bias". It's as if there's a brain virus going around.

He's absolutely correct in his assessment. If you think for a second that supporters of both Obama and Hillary don't use the race/gender card as a first line of defense against critics, then you're on some pretty powerful prescriptions. x2 The FBI absolutely determined no such thing. They claimed that they could not determine intent, not that there were no offenses committed.
