I think it is interesting and noteworthy that no one on this board, or for that matter in the national media, seems to have noticed our Governor, Jay Inslee, very much at all.  Give it up, Jay.

Jay, who?
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I noticed him, I just ignored him, like he does to the majority of the people in any part of WA. other than about 6 or 7 counties on the wet side.  ;)

The mainstream media are really pushing Warren.

I just don’t see it.



For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

The comment I heard earlier was she was debating with the B team and failed to distinguish herself very much. 

Maybe she should have spoke Cherokee or something.

My plan would turn every parking space into a handicapped space. They’re always the ones closest to the entrance. Now wherever you park you’ll be just a few feet away from your destination.

Of course, we cannot use that term any longer. So they will be called Differently Abled Spaces (DAS). I’ve started a pilot program in Washington, D.C. to test my plan. It’s called “DAS Capitol.”

What about those spaces set aside for expectant mothers? I do not support them. I believe the government should stay out of the bedroom. No free benefits for blastocysts.

    I’m the only person that’s beaten the NRA nationally. I’m the guy that got the Brady Bill passed, the background checks, number one.

    (APPLAUSE)

    Number two, we increased that background check when—when—during the Obama-Biden administration. I’m also the only guy that got assault weapons banned, banned, and the number of clips in a gun banned. And so, folks, look, and I would buy back those weapons. We already started talking about that. We tried to get it done. I think it can be done. And it should be demanded that we do it, and that’s a good expenditure of money.

    And lastly, we should have smart guns. No gun should be able to be sold unless your biometric measure could pull that trigger. It’s within our right to do that. We can do that. Our enemy is the gun manufacturers, not the NRA, the gun manufacturers.

WUT?

So did anybody get voted off the island in this tribal council?
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.

I saw this debate quote from Kamala Harris and it irritated me:

Quote
Biden and Harris tangled over the issue of school desegregation. Harris attacked Biden’s decades-ago work with segregationist senators, making the point personal by explaining she was a member of only the second class of black children in California to be bused to school in an effort to force desegregation.

“That little girl was me,” Harris said directly to the former vice president in a moment that has since gone viral.

It brought back memories of Junior High school. Harris is a few years younger than me. In Junior High, also in California, I was in one of the first classes of white kids (and also hispanic kids whose parents worked hard to live in a good school district) to be bused to Gangbanger Junior High in the bad part of town. She got bused to a good school, I got bused to a crappy school "in the name of fairness". Who suffered more?

She did, obviously.  Because you're a white male you deserved it.

Swalwell is going to make a major announcement. Speculation is that he's dropping out. Sean Spicer (the real one!) made a Sean Spicier style comment:

More important, this means his supporter is up for grabs

So he's admitting his impeachment crusade has no chance of removing Trump from office.

If he decides to run, he will immediately move to my #1 spot of "most hated candidate". As Londo Mollari would say, "Arrogance and stupidity all in one package. How efficient!"

So, one pulling out, and one jumping in to replace him.

The true question is... just what free *expletive deleted*it, and in what amounts, is the new guy going to offer in order to buy a base?

I’ve been rethinking things. Not sure any white guy can represent the Democrats right now.

I thought Bernie could do it but he’s an old white dude just like our founders.

Leftism is like malicious code that eventually bricks the machine it infects.

It’s not meant to work or make things better. It ruins things by design.

Some humans just don’t have stable operating systems and they are running without virus protection.

I edited it out, even before you posted I thought “obvious post is obvious” and none of can see into their minds.

I didn’t feel like going any farther down the racial/sex/gender/tribal rabbit hole either.

This guy won't run on free *expletive deleted*it. The guy he's replacing ran on "all gun control, all the time." This guy will run on, "All impeachment, all the time." He'll probably get a good portion of TDS Hollywood behind him.
