Is this where we talk about the Mayweather fight? I really liked how he went out at 40 and shut down a game Mcgregor in a fight that he could easily have lost. Reminds me of how Ted Williams went out in his last game and went 4-5 or some shit. Mayweather knew if he played defensively he would be fin...

Welcome to what happens when you don't have unions and social safety nets. So, you see Detroit as a viable alternative? Detroit's descent into hard times is pretty much right in step with the overall moving of our Federal Government well out onto the right wing (both parties are now right of what w...

The original Beatles, 1961. John, George, Paul and Pete. [img2]http://cdn.groovyhistory.com/content/34056/008bc79514ec0a56bdec4f3878fdec86.jpg[/img2] Pete and Ringo were both hired for their looks, not their drumming. Best didn't really fit in with the other three which is the main reason they let ...

I often wonder what would happen if a bunch of dogs got together and created a capitalist system. I can see a few poodles sitting around drinking drinks while a bunch of shepherds toil in the fields. Meanwhile the chihuahuas are telling everyone how lazy the shepherds are and that's why they have no...

I don't know if that's exactly correct, but I have no reason to doubt it, and anyway, I'm sure it's pretty close to what he said, but it is amazing that the 85 richest people in the world have as much wealth as the bottom 3.5 billion... It's correct. You can round up if you want and say the 100 ric...

"Now let us turn to Black Lives Matter and Antifa. Are they marginalized groups that liberals and Democrats are ashamed of?" They're marginalized by the right wing propaganda machine that routinely reports on what the fringe elements do and quickly assigns them mainstream status. But of co...

LMAO. Hillary the Preacher. She would fit right in with all the prosperity gospel preachers out there. Bill was the preacher, but she learned a little from him over the years. Both of them are rotten to the core. This was my song dedicated to Hillary on Trump's election day. https://www.youtube.com...

Why do you object to this form of very mild political protest? Don't have any objection to a 'mild' political protest, but being disrespectful to those who gave their lives to defend the flag is uncalled for. He didn't disrespect our troops. We need people who have some amount of volume to their vo...

This is what happens when you elect a petulant child to the highest office in the land. This is different than Comey or even Flynn. If you're not scared shitless right now about this idiot having the nuclear codes you're not very bright.

Quick deflections aside, you can look it up. There is a correlation between watching Fox News regularly and knowing less than those who watch no news whatsoever. What do you think that means?

Are you aware it's been shown that people who regularly watch Fox News know less about politics than people who don't watch any news at all?

I hope Kim Jong-un is rational enough to realise that Trump is stupid enough to actually go to war with North Korea. My hope is that he likes his life as a dictator enough that he’s not really willing to throw the first stone, and subsequently lose everything. Yeah. We’re at the point where my best...

I frequently disagree with Sam Harris, but he hits the nail on the head here about the frightening problems with Trump's personality. This is from last year during the election.

Say what you want about Obama, but at least most of his detractors didn't like him b/c of his policies, and not anything to do with his demeanor or personal or professional behavior. In that regard, he was as dignified, well-spoken and "presidential" as you could possibly hope for. Actual...

Police are given a lot of authority and are here for safety and to protect and serve. Society grants them this authority and, in turn, they are held to a high standard of behavior. The majority ate probably good, but that doesn't mean the bad ones don't exist or should be given a pass. Agree the ma...

This is what would happen if the Black Eyed Peas had soul. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXlZfc1TrD0 dude, thank god for fast forward The chick vocals are a little unusual. Not sure if she sings like that all the time or what. The song plus video have an original feel though, which is all too lac...

Trump represents a dangerous descent into tyranny and fascism LMAO. Trump is SLOWING DOWN our previous dangerous descent into tyranny and fascism by the Democrats. Look at what the liberals have already done to the Constitution. First Amendment: Freedom of Religion. America was founded on the princ...

Good points. But Trump supporters will still vent their ire on the Republican Senate, if only to punish their collective betrayal of their own base. If they never planned on repealing and replacing Obamacare, then they shouldn't have campaigned that they would, and gone through all those theatrical...
