The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘Al Qaeda’ his shoulders went up, But you know, it is that you don’t say ‘America’ with an intensity, you don’t say ‘England’ with the intensity.

At least she didn't say "there are good people on both sides..."

That falls under the "truth to power" exception. She can say what she wants about Crenshaw. She's a Muslim woman of color -- really high on the progressive stack.

God only knows. It's like that carny game where you throw blunt darts at underinflated baloons. Or maybe the one where you have a fishing rod with this rubber ring on the end, and you have to lean over the counter and pick up a Pepsi bottle lying on it's side? I always tried that one, because you won a goldfish in a plastic bag.

Feel the Bern. He should have been the Dem candidate last time.
Sent from my penis using wankertalk. "The Western world is fucking awesome because of mostly white men" - DaveDodo007. "Socialized medicine is just exactly as morally defensible as gassing and cooking Jews" - Seth. Yes, he really did say that.. "Seth you are a boon to this community" - Cunt. "I am seriously thinking of going on a spree killing" - Svartalf.
he'd have lost, actually, even now, he'd possibly still lose due to the electoral college system which does not guarantee that the winner of the popular vote actually wins.
Have we figured out who is running against Trump yet?

Bernie might stil look like he's going strong, but he's too old for the job. was too old back last time, has not gotten any younger.
This is likely, but he will last the election. May end up as a one term president, handing over to his VP, and that is actually the best chance of getting a woman president. Bernie/Klobuchar ticket would guarantee a Minnesota (and Wisconsin) win. Trump was 1.5% short there in 2016.
