Progressives, part 3...

If he didn't slide over, he was definitely being petty, but you can absolutely calmly call someone a bitch.  Not sure that is really a matter of rationality, but I can see practically as many reasons to do it calmly as not to.

Basically, this was a verbal altercation that she tried to rebrand and turn into a political chess piece, and it's backfired horribly, since it's shown her to be lying about the circumstances and about using similar racially tense language as the president directed toward a Latino man.

If her political career comes out of this unscathed, it won't be as impressive as Trump surviving the "grab 'em by the pussy" comment, but it'd probably be the most impressive dodge since then.

Good breakdown.  If she comes out of this unscathed, it will just further prove the left is full of shit when they pretend they are the standard for the moral high ground.  Northam is another easy example that comes to my mind. 

SO... the progressives are calling Tulsi Gabbard "conservative" when it comes to her foreign policy. And that she's as good as a republican.

Um, wat?

Sure.  Biden, as well, for how little blowback he's gotten from that half-assed "apology" where he really just lamented that the days are gone in which you could touch or kiss a woman without consent.

Then again, the Republicans did spend a few decades claiming the moral high ground with the "moral majority" and "religious right."   Since then, a lot have thrown their support behind guys like Newt Gingrich and Trump.

No party gets to claim the moral high ground anymore.  Any of them that try are blowing smoke not-so-delicately over the voting public's collective ass.

I think I found spock’s Twitter 

To be fair Kirk isn’t wrong here. Trump did say come back after fixing “their countries”. I obviously don’t agree with what Trump said but Kirk is telling the truth here.

you are the one that posted Kirk’s tweet. You even circled the part you thought he was wrong about. However, he was 100% right about that part. You are now changing the “goal posts” to “well 3/4 were from this country so...”. That has zero to do with the post you quoted about Kirk. You were wrong, it’s ok to admit that and not double down by changing the subject.

LOL, I read a few of those Twitter comments.  People angry at the staging of the "background".  I despise it, but it's nothing new.  I know Obama always did it, but I assume it didn't start with his Presidency.

I'd never go to a Trump rally, but it they tried to make me sit there I'd ask to be moved or leave.

Staging....which in advertising is called the bandwagon method.  Every presidential candidate hand picks every person back there.

Compared to pretty much every other DNC candidate for POTUS Tulsi is a republican.

Glad I don't waste time with that...it's easier to just hang out and wait for gblock to pwn himself.

No need to "pwn" you, you do it to yourself plenty with completely botching words you don't understand.

The best thing is when gblock gerrymanders himself. That's pretty awesome.

If the feds get their paws on this stuff because of "interstate commerce", France would actually seem to have a strong argument for taxing Google, Facebook, etc.

Although I'm not sure what France is trying to do.  I assume those companies already pay tax on revenue related to traffic originating in France.

Yeah, I'm not defending France.  But for the guy who pontificated about the US tariffs on Chinese goods to say, "If anyone taxes them, it should be their home country," is hilarious.

This guy is a straight-up cartoon.
