PK htiw klaw eriF Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Is there any politician (or anyone in general?) who isn't a hypocrite? Sanders seems more trustworthy than most of them.No, it sort of comes with the territory of managing the state. Probably the only people in American national office who aren't rich just got their and will likely be rich in a few years. Something something class positioning. Anyways Bernie is ok but Yang wants to give me 1000 bucks a month and make Bezos pay for it so he's got my critical support, if only so the boomers have heart attacks. Nope. Being a general piece of **** is condicio sine qua non to get anywhere further than maybe secretary of your local workers' council.Sounds like an argument for all power to local workers' councils.

Gromnir Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 so, ny is going after manafort. double jeopardy is gonna be an obvious issue for the bank fraud charges, though ny will attempt to use state business records laws circumvent constitutional and state dj issues. state tax issues is less clear problematic, but where cause o' action arises outta same act or offenses, dj typical shields the ny defendant. regardless, for manafort, HA! Good Fun!

Bartimaeus Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I liked that they waited only minutes until after his sentencing was complete to smash him with 16 more indictments. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

ktchong Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) One day in the near future, the finite energy of Donald Trump's body runs out, and he dies. He immediately goes to Hell, where the devil is waiting for him. "I don't know what to do here," says the devil. “You are on my list, but I have no room for you. You definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got three folks here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide who leaves." Donald thought that sounded pretty good, so the devil opened the door to the first room. In it, was Richard Nixon and a large pool of water. Nixon kept diving in, and surfacing, empty handed. Over, and over, and over he dived in and surfaced with nothing. Such was his fate in hell. "No," Donald said. "I don't think so. I'm not a good swimmer and it would ruin my hair. I don't think I could do that all day long.” The devil led him to the door of the next room. In it, was George W Bush with a sledge-hammer and a room full of rocks. All he did was swing that hammer, time after time after time. "No, this is no good; I've got this bone spur problem with my foot. I would be in constant agony if all I could do was break rocks all day”, commented Donald. The devil opened a third door. Through it, Donald saw Bill Clinton, lying on the bed, his arms tied over his head, and his legs restrained in a spread-eagle pose. Bent over him was Monica Lewinsky, doing what she does best. Donald looked at this in shocked disbelief, and finally said, "Yeah man, I can handle this." The devil smiled and said, “Okay, Monica, you're free to go."

Katphood Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Hmmm, is there any country out there right now where most of its people aren't confused as hell if they should trust their respective governments or not?! It sure does feel that way. I wish I could wake up sometime in 1998, realizing all of this has just been a bad dream: -9/11 -War -ISIS -Fallout 76 ... 1 There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

Which dem candidate is dead on two fronts? You put waaay too much thought into that. Internet memes are not plumbing the depths in search of subtle truths or esoteric allegory. They are just meant to be taken at face value and elicit a chuckle. And James was right. Everyone else is running why not Cersei too. If she got nominated as a Dem their would still vote for her and say "Well at least she isn't Joffrey". If she was nominated as a Republican they would still vote for her and say "At least she isn't Ramsay". Meanwhile I'd be voting for Mance Rayder.

You should never trust your government, people should always keep track that government is doing what it was elected to do and if they don't then people should vote them out.

I'm all for a system where you can vote ****bags out. Sadly, that is not possible anywhere* -- you can only ever vote a different ****bag in to replace them. *the closest you can get are things like empty seats "parties", but that's a fairly rare alternative and even where it exists, understandably the establishment makes it virtually impossible for any such initiatives to gain traction.

As if that wasn't clear enough anyway. edit: Well who am I kidding. Assuming the EPP will lose votes they'll just all go to the ENF, a faction equally as imbecilic when it comes to technology - and if you look at people like Harald Vilimsky proof that the human race is devolving. Dude's essentially a Nazi in anything but the name and looks like he's on the verge of being part of the Planet of the Apes. And not as human slave. Talk about irony.

Gorth Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Just in case you're wondering who to vote for in the upcoming European Parliament election. As if that wasn't clear enough anyway. I think it's hilarious, that if the UK applies for an extension to the Brexit date, they will have to field candidates for the European Parliament... which they may not be a part of 3 months later.
