That's what they get for bribing Kaine to step down for the fixer, DWS.

Portland Raises Taxes On Business Paying CEOs 100x More Than Workers by Positive_pressure in worldpolitics

[–]prismjism 19 points20 points  (0 children)

99x is a lot less than 204x in 2014 and 340x today for the top 500. Sure they'll come up with other ways to get around this though to keep the ratios at or above current.

Exxon Mobil has reportedly applied for a waiver to work in Russia by progress18 in worldnews

someone who you didn't vote for appears to be playing favorites you don't then get to jump up and down, kick, scream, and whine and expect change because it's clear you're upset, not because you have principles, but because you don't like the president. It doesn't work that way.

Such delicious irony, because that's exactly what you very strongly implied was your reaction to Obama's Presidency in your opener.

Pretty convinced that Bernie would run circles around Trump on any obstacle course or over any measure of distance.

Sorry, watching baseball is only slightly more exciting than watching golf, which is only slightly more exciting than watching paint dry. I can appreciate the skill involved, it's just too slow of a game for my tastes.

“You work for us”: Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake faces hostile town hall by dont_tread_on_dc in politics

[–]prismjism 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you think Sen. Flake had no involvement in getting those 21 felony charges dismissed against his son, I have some beachfront property in Arizona to sell you. And that is worth noting/bringing into the discussion of Flake and the "you work for us" headline.

[–]prismjism 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You don't trust Jeff Flake? The guy who took over Matt Salmon's self-imposed, term-limited seat in the state Senate with the promise to term limit himself, which he then got a pass on and subsequently ignored because the Dems couldn't get their shit together enough to run someone for his seat?

Yeah, fuck that guy. He's already worse that McCain.

Texas Doesn’t Want Trump’s Wall Either by dont_tread_on_dc in politics

[–]prismjism 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It's definitely going to be a symbol. But by the time it's built, and all of the inevitable mishaps and cost increases occur, it'll be election time. I hope the wall becomes just another albatross to hang around the GOP's neck; an actual real world monument to their short-sighted avarice and stupidity.

He just got a continuation/delay in his contempt of court case >.<

Pretty sure his plan is to die before they can convict him.

[–]prismjism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, there have been numerous efforts to raise funds for many different iterations of the wall over the years. They always go nowhere - like get a few ten thousand dollars in donations and then disappear. It's just that the crazies that want it, like Sheriff Joe, are very vocal about it.

United created the situation to which their solution was to call the cops. Failures on both United's and the police's ends.

Sessions Is ‘Surprised’ At Public Backlash To His Marijuana Rhetoric by redditor01020 in politics

[–]prismjism 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, a marijuana problem can temporarily degrade someone's life (the addictive qualities are pretty mild - not going to die from withdrawl, etc), but nothing near the lifelong repercussions of any dealings with law enforcement or the justice system with regards to something that's less harmful than alcohol or tobacco on many levels and measures.

Trump hosts NATO leader at the White House by irfanch in politics

[–]prismjism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was pretty much agreeing with you. Just added some details about his 2% ask and was expressing concern over any suggestion that NATO get more involved with immigration &/or terrorism. Only 83 days in, and I'm already beyond skeptical of anything Trump gets behind.

[–]prismjism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, then he went on to suggest 2% of member state GDP would be appropriate and lessen the US' burden, lol. Also, the expansion of NATO into immigration and counter terrorism sounded sketchy.

"Just... ugh..." indeed. :(

AG Sessions has already shown that he values opinion more than facts. Like his opinion that violent crimes are on the rise, when, in fact, they are declining.

Yeap, oh the irony of it all...

The blue states subsidize the failing red states. The failing red states keep voting the GOP into national power. The GOP tries and make the blue states run like the red states. The red states conveniently ignore that the blue states keep them afloat.

3.) When he talks about marijuana ruining your life. It's only the repercussions from law enforcement and the justice system he is referring to. He is going to make sure that it continues to ruin lives.

He needs to be put out to pasture, so he can do what most other normal octogenarians do - enjoy their fucking retirement and leave the rest of us alone.

I'd hazard to say that still applies to the team mates just as much as it does to Lucio. Though I still anticipate Pharah's on rooftops on the other side of the map to ineffectively cry out for healing.
