SCOTUS Justice Stevens retires, Obama gets second appointment..

Listening to libertarians and anarchists can be exhausting.

No one does it like libertarians do it!

You're annoying.

[Beckwin]

Actually no you can't, well, not without undue duress.

what, did you expect life without the benefits of infrastructure and public services to be easy?

you aren't rich enough for it to be easy :/

[SwampdonkeyPLD]

Yeah, how dare they allow political speech to become a market commodity, driving people out of the marketplace who don't have enough money to compete with non-person corporations.

You do realize that if your view were excepted every news organization would fall under govt. control?

Also, there's nothing preventing whoever it is you're worried about from getting their message out. If anything they can get discounts from the New York Times. They gave the General Betrayus people a 30k discount.

General Betrayus

if republicans took half the effort they put into these little nicknames they have for everyone and everything and used it to come up with policies that made sense in this century, they'd be a respectable political party instead of an all-purpose punchline

if republicans took half the effort they put into these little nicknames they have for everyone and everything and used it to come up with policies that made sense in this century, they'd be a legitimate political party instead of an all-purpose punchline

You're trolling, right?

[Priran]

you're right, they'd still manage to fuck it up

It was a Dem group that came up with that moniker.

[Kuya]

Then i guess republicans can't do anything right.

Can't believe I'm defending Swampy here.. He's correct it was MoveOn.org that first used this particular nickname.

[Priran]

I get it, bad example. If you want a better one, follow swamp's posts, watch fox news, or listen to sarah palin talk.

Off the top of my head, "Obamination", "Health Care Deform"

During the election I said one of the biggest issues no-one talks about is that the next president is going to get to make 2-4 Supreme Court appointments, which meant a vote for the president was a vote for the direction of the Supreme Court as well. Which was my biggest determiner in "breaking rank" so to speak and voting democrat.

Always nice to be reaffirmed that you're not crazy.

[Beckwin]

I can't imagine how insane this country could be with a McCain presidency putting another Alito and Scalia pair on the bench.

It's pretty seriously frightening.

Aside from being afraid that striking gun laws will cause people to run around killing each other, in all honesty what is there to be afraid of from a conservative court?

[Cadsuane]

If nothing else this thread is a fascinating case example of the political spectrum not being a straight line.

[Priran]

For starters, overturning Roe v Wade?

More stupid shit like corporate personhood?

States suing the federal government over healthcare and being taken seriously?

Why would you highlight certain parts in black? Most of us are using blacksmart. I think you are purposely trying to hurt our eyes. You devil.

I thought most of us were using R2?

[Siniroth]

Most are using R2-Dark, which is Blacksmart
