  1. Let's be honest here, the President will weather the Comey hearing. No matter what he says it will be spun and people will argue, but no Impeachment, censure, etc will happen. I have said this before, unfortunately the only way this guy gets removed is if a lot of people are hurt/die or lose a significant amount of money.
  2. I absolutely loved Ron Santo. And there is no comparision between Hawk and Ronnie. The difference between Hawk and Santo is that Hawk is all stick. He is nothing more than a few annoying catch phrases and really stupid takes on baseball. Hawk never played for the White Sox and was only ever part of the team as GM (and by all accounts a shitty GM) after doing TV for them for a few years. Everything he did in the booth was more of a look a me and came off as hokey and fake. And even a great color man like Steve Stone couldn't bring the Sox games to a watchable state. Now, on why I love
  3. Well Sox Fans only have to suffer another year with this moron. I am all for homer broadcasters, especially in baseball (though David Ross during last night's Cubs game was pretty horrible), but Hawk is a jibbering pile of garbage.
  4. How can Mr. Met give the middle finger when he only has 4 fingers? http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2017/6/1/15724052/mr-met-flipped-off-fan-middle-finger-but-doesnt-have-one-this-is-a-cold-world-no-blanket
  5. So good. David Thewlis is so evil
  6. Because people are fucking stupid. They were easily conned. They believed a racist thin skinned narcissist. If you voted for Trump you are fucking moron.
  7. Well that was quick: US-Led coalition airstrikes targeted Syrian regime forces. I am not saying this has anything to do with the on going Russian probe, but man it looks suspicious. They only time the President has received any type of praise, outside his base, is when he has blown some shit up. So yeah. This is troubling.
  8. I have said this all along, the only way Republicans will do anything against the President is if a major catastrophic event happens because of his actions. A lot of people will probably have to die or be seriously hurt. In a relative quick fashion because we all know if it is slow (aka Healthcare) they don't give a fuck.
  9. "I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot someone and I wouldn't lose voters." be impeached. - President Donald J Trump.
  10. This thing may have absolutely nothing to do with Russia, or my theory that it is done to distract from Healthcare. It may be Comey was fired because he is a thin skinned narcissist. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/11/us/politics/trump-comey-showboat-fbi.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&_r=0 Occam's Razor and all.
  11. That is encouraging, but what is needed to defeat the House Bill and the eventual garbage that will come out of the Senate is a large ground swell of people. I just worry it will be forgotten about. Russian spies are just much ore interesting.
  12. I guess it is all about you then. And if they feel the same way about healthcare, they probably feel the same way about teh FBI, Russia etc. I can tell you probably 51 don't feel the same way you do. I would bet in a months time there will be nothing done on the Russia thing and a we will have a horrible, horrible horrible healthcare law out there. This Russia thing is just making it easier to slip it through.
  13. No. It is important to call your rep and say things like, "as you are writing this bill make sure you include provisions for pre-existing conditions, etc." Frankly, now is the time to try influence your senator to change the bill, rather than wait until there is a bill out there. Most of the Republican senators will vote for the bill no matter what is in it. So why not try to change their mind before it is written. And if they pull the same shit they did in the house there will be very little time between an official bill and the call for a vote. By the time there is a bill out there it
  14. well, not really. There was a pretty big ground swell and organization to call your senator to stop this. If a rep held a town hall they got lambasted. This was big news, now it is all but faded. I am sure it will get more attention once the CBO score comes out and the vote is ushered through, but for the time being it really has killed the momentum of the opposition. It is not that I think that the Russian thing is not important, but I believe there has been enough doubt thrown in and they can say, there is no ties, etc. and the people can call, protest all they want and nothing will be
  15. As always with Trump you need to pay attention to the other hand, especially when a big story like this breaks. Everyone should notice that no one is talking about the Healthcare bill. Which makes me think this either 1) there really is no Trump Russia ties or 2) there is and Trump has made a deal with the GOP majority that they won't investigate further. This whole thing is gonna make it easier for them to get the horrible, horrible health care bill passed.
  16. I don't know why I am surprised but the way this bill is being rammed though congress is just baffling. One of the big complaints when ACA came out is that no one knew what was in it (which wasn't true). But with this, we can actually point to the fact that there just wasn't enough time to understand this bill. No CBO score, nothing. The GOP is a joke of a party. Lead by petty petulant people. Fuck.
  17. From what I read it is worse and it will probably pass. Though no one knows what it actually is in it. So much for the promise to have the bill available for 3 days.
  18. It is truly amazing how every day this man proves himself to be utter incompetent for the job and his supporters still blindly follow him. I heard the other on Rush, how it was ok for the President to have completely changed his position on things because he as a business man listens to good people and changed because of the facts. It was truly madding.
  19. Anyone watch the American Gods premier last night?
  20. When have academia and proven data ever meant anything. He is cutting taxes, who cares what it will do, or the fact how little of a tax cut the middle class will get. The words "Tax Cut" are all that matter.
  21. Kishi Bashi tonight at the Jefferson in Charlottesville VA! Makes the work trip worth it.
  22. I just watched some clips of My Family, the sitcom Kris was in awhile back. Man, I forgot how truly awful British sitcoms are.
  23. Most importantly what was the length of Billy's hair? My brother and I have a theory, the longer Billy Corgan's hair the better music he makes. Also the inverse of the Sean Connery rule. Gish - Shoulder length, awesome album Siamese Dream - mop top - great album Mellon Collie - shorter yet - ok album Any album where Billy Corgan is bald, fucking terrible. BTW, I did listen to the album on the link. I like it. I have moppish hair right now. So I am to be trusted.
  24. This seemed to be more of a soft reboot of the show. I read a review that likened it more to the first Nu-Who episode "Rose." Which is pretty fair in my estimation. Anytime they introduce a new companion it makes it fresh again. Also I am glad that there is no over arching mystery around Bill (as of yet), after Amy and Clara it would just be tiresome. The Sun is reporting it is this guy: https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/3339851/new-doctor-who-revealed-as-kris-marshall-takes-over-from-peter-capaldi-and-has-already-joined-the-cast/ So, it looks like after an old white gu
