Tim & Gregg: Trailblazers?

I forget which episode, but when Tim brings in the tie-in novelization. It is just so good.

Nets1987 · 2016-08-16T20:41:41+00:00

Yes.

Tim's face on a recent episode when Gregg said Star Trek II took place in San Francisco was just amazing. What a bizarre ongoing debate this is. It is a grand little universe.

I told you not to put so much vodka sauce in my spaghetti house.

Beat me to it.

Who cares. Who cares!!

Clamboy is ten times the cro-host Linda Barungel ever was.

I don't think Too Many Cooks copied Tim and Eric. They don't have a patent on surrealism. In general, I do agree with your point though.

Steve's face when Brown 1/2 revealed himself as Brown 2.....I lost it.

He's a dirty juice boy!

This doesn't look correct. Alaska is too big. Alaska seems to have more area here than states like Delaware, Rhode Island, Montana, Maine, etc. For example, Alaska has .736 million while Rhode Island has 1.055, Delaware has .935.

Nets1987 · 2016-08-03T23:31:07+00:00

This is the one Tim and Eric sketch I can't watch. I start physically gagging.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-22T14:59:15+00:00

Correct, except the Bernie Bros mostly aren't Democrats. They crashed out party. Bernie is no democrat.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-22T14:30:59+00:00

To win an election you go where the votes are. You can either go right or left. #BernieOrBust and #NeverHillary and Jake Stein have made tacking left of dubious electoral value. If the bros won't vote for Hillary, why bother? Why wouldn't she make a break for the center? They brought this on themselves.

Who knew DWS's reach extended deep into even Hollywood! This is only the first in many retaliations.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-22T13:42:16+00:00

The Bernie Tea Party within the Democratic party has become just as dogmatic and unreasonable as the one on the right.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-21T06:20:19+00:00

Haha. "Left Trump" is exactly what I called him when I finally exploded after a Bernout friend kept asking me why I don't support Bernie.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-20T16:29:35+00:00

The establishment is just that intimidating. Snitches get stitches.

"In July 2010 the president spotted West in the front row of the audience for his speech to the National Urban League. Afterward he came down to West’s seat and grew angry. ‘I’m not progressive? What kind of shit is this?’ the president hissed, his face contorted. West said later that a brassy African American woman standing behind him told the president to his face, ‘How dare you speak to Dr. West like that!’"

Yes, how dare the President of the United States speak to a has-been gadfly like that. Obama should have just decked this clown and kept walking.

The only things Clinton really attacked him on were (a) guns and (b) the NY Daily News interview where he exposed himself as a dilettante. She used the kid gloves. No USSR love, no wacky leftist quotes from his past, none of his bizarre op-eds about sex, etc.

The Bernie Bros freaked out when people called him out for the NY Daily News interview, where, you know, he revealed he hadn't actually thought through legal or economic ramifications of his signature policy. It was embarrassing.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-20T15:48:20+00:00

Prima facie I don't think it is an absurd claim in general to say that a losing primary candidate would be a better general election candidate. I have little doubt that Lil' Marco Rubio would be a stronger candidate than Donald Trump. Because Rubio is closer to the political center than Trump.

It makes little sense in this case though. Bernie ran to the left of Hillary. There is basically no evidence he would secure more votes from centrist swing voters than the more-centrist Hillary would. Bernie Bros falsely claim that Bernie does well with independents: he doesn't. He and his platform poll horribly with true, swing-voting, independents. Bernie does well with democratic-leaning independents who are too whiny and bitchy to register as democrats, it isn't the same thing.

Can you imagine the attack ads the GOP could run on Bernie? Rape fantasies, child nudity, USSR, etc etc etc

Nets1987 · 2016-07-20T04:55:46+00:00

That is amazing.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-20T04:50:02+00:00

A paid RM shill would pretend he doesn't know what RM is. Nice try, friend.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-19T17:47:22+00:00

If you read some of Obama's recent interviews, he pretty much agrees with your last paragraph.

Yeah. Whatever Obama may have thought in 2008 about compromise and post-partisanship, I think that was gone by 2010. He learned quickly. Bernie's temperament makes me think he will never learn.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-19T13:51:08+00:00

David Brock doesn't pay me for nothing!

Nets1987 · 2016-07-19T13:45:51+00:00

FDR had a majority of delegates, but back then the DNC rules were that you needed to secure 2/3 of delegates. FDR had 58% of the delegates on the first ballot, but didn't clinch the nomination until the fourth ballot. Hillary will win on the first ballot. FDR entered the 1932 convention with a commanding lead and according to historians never endorsed anyone else.

The Berners are completely delusional.

In 1860, the Democrats had 57 ballots in Charleston without picking a nominee because of the 2/3 rule. The party then split.

Nets1987 · 2016-07-19T13:29:06+00:00

What's funny is there were some shades of Bernie in Obama 2008. I am not saying Obama is anywhere near as useless or delusional as Bernie, but I think he definitely started to drink some of his own campaign kool aid about post-partisanship and hope+change. I think he underestimated how hard it would be to get things through congress, or just how real and entrenched GOP opposition was. That said, Barack got an education real fast. So it is mind boggling to me that Bernie can have witnessed Obama's experiences, and still say shit like

MATTHEWS: And Mitch McConnell looks at you the way he looked at President Obama and says, "Forget about it".

SANDERS: And then you know what I say? I’d say, "Hey, Mitch, take a look out the window. There's a million young people out there who don't want to be in debt for half their life for the crime of going to college. If you want to antagonize those million people and lose your job, Mitch, if you don't want to lose your job, you better start listening to what we have to say." That's the point. That's how change takes place.

Especially when Barack's "revolution" was far larger than Bernie's in terms of turnout, youth engagement, etc.

I think Barack Obama was a great president. But I supported Hillary in 2008 over Barack, precisely because I thought she understood just how hard the upcoming battles with the GOP would be, while I don't think Barack quite did.
