Wouldn't only blame the media but the mentality of most in this country.
Chicken or the egg...

Are media outlets selling nonsense because people want it, or do people want it because it's all the media sells?

I read this book the first time in like 1992, and read two subsequent editions. It hasn't been an overnight thing.

Never the full document related to a ruling.

And naturally, people like "pro life" Mike Huckabee are already calling for capital punishment for whoever leaked it.

They quickly put up barriers around the court last night. Seems to me that these organizations should realize that if they have to put up barriers to protect them from the people they serve, maybe they are doing something wrong.
Is it illegal to do so?

Point 1) Grey area, I guess. especially if the document was not classified it would not be protected by law.

Point 2) No, it isn't illegal for someone like Huckabee to call for people's death or to present his opinions as fact as long as he pretends he is reporting news thanks to Reagan's destruction of the media Fairness Doctrine.

Point 3) Totally not illegal to barricade federal buildings when the people inside do stuff that makes people want to burn it down.


Wasn't sure which one you were asking if it was illegal :thumb:

SCOTUS just confirmed that the document is real and they are investigating the incident.

It seems Mitch is blaming the democrats for the leak. I thought the SCOTUS was nonpartisan ..... (I am being facetious)

A black child is well fed and happy? Damn democrats
Democracy? Damn democrats


Elizabeth Warren is fired up today. I wish she was president.

I think it’s much more likely one dumb staffer who galaxy brained this but I’d easily believe that the DNC started panicking about basically all the news being bad for them right now and figured they could get a few more months of campaigning on this issue to really get things going and shout over the other stuff.

Sad but I wouldn't be shocked if this wasn't a leak from one of the 5 who are for this or leaked from a conservative. There are pro's to them getting this out early to show this was an early draft and have since then pulled back from of the findings. This would then hamper any DNC momentum gained from this.

I guess Susan is concerned and maybe will write them a letter with her concerns.

Yeah, because Justice Kavanaugh is a man of his word and has shown great integrity.
About the only thing he was honest about was that he likes beer.

It could also be someone who is seeing information regarding the sedition and insurrection cases and is reaching for the brass ring, knowing the end is nigh. Throw it out and hope it sticks.

I love how she has the audacity to act surprised.

So, I went out an voted in Ohio's Primary. One of the neat things about Ohio is you can ask for any ballot you want in a primary. I can ask for and vote as a republican which gives me the chance to vote against crazy twice. There is a downside that it leads to a lot of mail, but fire pit season is upon us and I need the fuel. But it's weird, I didn't see a JD Mandel. Trump didn't tell me what to do if I was confused by something, so I just voted for the guy whose name sounds like someone I went to high school with.

I was easily the youngest person in the room by a good 20 years and I am old. These old bitches don't care about the future because they won't be around to see it. They just want to throw down pain and hellfire on all those damn kids and their facetubes, self checkouts and tock tocks.

I did get to see a skinhead walk in though. Full uniform, combat boots, cargo pants, shaved head and a black coat with a Celtic Cross. It is a bit alarming to me that my vote only exists to cancel out his.

Also learned that my neighbor across the street is running for office at the county level. At first I was offended that she never came over to tell us, but then I remembered that my oldest has a rainbow flag in her window and my youngest once helped her take groceries out of her car while wearing her Black Lives Matter mask. I guess she figured I was a lost vote. I was, as it turns out. And I will be another one if she wins the primary.

This right here is why I try not to know my neighbors. At all.

I already disliked the woman across the street for non-political reasons, then she slapped a Let's Go Brandon sticker on her car and confirmed every negative feeling I had towards her.
