So, the Republican idiocy machine attacks Iraq, resulting in essentially partition into Shiite, Sunni & Kurd population centers, and ethnic cleansing. Now, Tillerson says the Kurd independence vote is "illegitimate". Damn, I'll be glad to tell him just what is really illegitimate.

I'm not unsympathetic, but it is a slippery slope when States do not honor their legal commitments. I don't think it is right for Michigan to cut their pension obligations. I now believe the real significance of Roosevelt closing the gold market in 1933 was not the confiscation of physical gold but the striking of Gold Clauses from contracts. |

The treatment of Puerto Rico by this administration will go down in history as a great moment of shame for this country. And here I thought we were getting past the great historical moments of shame. Well, shame on me for being so naive.
Also, anyone pay attention to Trump’s response to the Vegas massacre? Wee bit different in to s than his responses to London, wouldn’t you say? Where’s the ban on cray white people with guns. If only we’d had a ban on crazy white peoples with guns, this wouldn’t have happened. That’s Trump’s own logic talking. But he doesn’t say that. Nope. Because there’s no rationalizing or avoiding the fact that this guy has racism embedded in his bones like a Kryptonian codex. |

I send thoughts and prayers when my friend’s parent dies. When something happens and I cannot do a fucking thing about it. How about food and water to PR? Or stricter gun laws for those affected by Las Vegas. |

The only thing "thoughts and prayers" solves is the need to feel like people actually did something.

Obama's tweet mentioned thought and prayers.
Just to be fair. But yes, my own NRA-sponsored rep offered them too. Difference is my rep can write laws and vote on them. |

I read somewhere that “thoughts and prayers” is actually the NRA-approved message for officials who were backed by them. Like they went to their sponsors and asked what they should say. Thoughts and prayers, apparently.
Can anyone verify/debunk this? Am I the only one who’s heard this? |

Porto is how it is spelled in the US Legal Document we were discussing. It was not the white Europeans that slaughtered Latin America (after disease killed much of the indigenous population anyway), it was the Spanish and the Portuguese with the help of the Catholic Church. |

Man Michigan is the arsehole of the nation these days. And I’m not talking about Detroit or Flint. Read of one Michgan rep on Reddit who refuses to re-evaluate his “no background checks for anyone ever” stance, even in the wake of Vegas. Just, “nah, I will not change my views on background checks.” I forget his name, but if I were a constituent I would go to wherever the fuck he is and I would fuck the shit out of his wife. |
