She absolutely should NOT have done what she did. Are you prepared to make it a principle that members of the military can willy-nilly break the law and disclose whatever they feel like, even without knowing the contents of what they're disclosing? Name one way in which we are More Free because of what she did.

sums up my thoughts.

Having an awful candidate represent trans people does not benefit trans people.

Manning is not a whistleblower. She did not meet any of the normal requirements to be considered one. She did a document dump without even knowing what she was dumping or who might be harmed in the process, and it would be a horrible thing if others followed that example. The names of truly heroic whistleblowers, like those who went to jail for raising limited, ethical warnings about NSA actions, are not so well known.

Greenwald is pissed because he is mad about Israel, so... That's his only real complaint. If the current D Senator doesn't deserve his job, it's not because of the "privileged" circumstances of his birth. It should be due to his votes and policies. On more things than Israel.

God Emperor Trump enjoys being spanked with Forbes mag? It seems SOOOO on the nose that I almost can't believe it....But hell that's the timeline were in right?

I could get into providing that service, for a high fee. Not normally my thing but it sounds appealing at the moment. Let me be clear, I would be the provider and NOT the recipient.

Pheobe lets get more into your escort services please.

Hi*closes FetLife*. Hrrrrrmmmm?

How much are you willing to pay for me to roll up a Forbes magazine and smack you on the ass with it? I used to be hot but now I am a NOT even remotely or slightly hot old lady, unless by that you mean hot flashes. If you want me to smack you or anyone else with the magazine while I'm having a hot flash, especially if you're blocking the door to the cold outside world or fridge, I'll do it for free or possibly even pay you. My husband is still really hot so I have an inflated sense of my sexist-world value.

Is it me or is this whole Stormy Daniels thing really amusing? Who is that guy, oh yes John Edwards, Gary Hart, all of those. So many political careers ended by this sort of thing. But when you're a star...

Well, Bill Clinton sorta paved the way for being able to continue with your political career after having an affair; Trump is just taking it up a level or three. But the spiritual gymnastics that some of his evangelical supporters are having to go through to still support him after this are mind boggling.

Ben Shapiro posited yesterday that Trump is a political version of the Rational Market hypothesis. You can't take him down with scandal because no scandal really adds information to the "market". No one is shocked that Trump had sex with an adult film actress, or that he committed adultery. This would DEVASTATE Mitt Romney, but it won't change anyone's mind about Trump. If you like Trump for whatever reason, then you already factored his character into that opinion.

I think that fits with observed behavior.

Makes perfect sense even for the dweeb Shaprio. Also come on its CONSENSUAL SEX with a porn star that according to her at least didn't even pay. To his detractors this is a moral step up and to his supporters its par for the course. Anyone check out any of her videos since the revelation? Fire off some knuckle children out of respect to POTUS?

I think Willy is totally correct. This was expected and built into the assessment of Trump. I just find it hilarious because the same people who are pissed about baking a cake for gay couples like it's asking Picasso to make a pro-war mural are the ones who voted for Trump. Fuck these hypocrites, who also happen to be hell-bent on destroying many other good people and things. I laugh at their newfound love for adultery with pornstars.

Ignomity.

On first anniversary, the government is shutdown.

With GOP controlling each house.

Note: only 45 GOP supported the bill submitted Friday night, so there was no vote anywhere. Don't blame Dems. GOP has to convince them, but they haven't done so yet.

yea we will see what the general public thinks about this, democrats will throw every Mexican in a labor camp if they think it will get them one approval point.
