Crimes used to be committed by individuals. Now they are committed by tribes. After each shooting, bombing, knifing the question is never "who did it?" but only "which side did it?"
Something is wrong. The question is how it got that way.
Nobody accepts the explanation that criminals -- who happen to have a particular cultural or ethnic background -- are responsible for an outrage. It is the culture or ethnicity itself that is now to blame.

How could they have done this? Was it hubris or just regular stupidity?
I think Giuliani's request for an apology is an offer to fix what will otherwise become a dangerous crisis.
It is better to bury the hatchet if you can before it finds employment as a melee weapon.

It's not an original thought but the Dossier itself may have contained Russian disinformation, fed into it by poisoned sources unbeknownst to its authors. It has certainly had the effect of a poisoned pawn, which once swallowed proves toxic.
Its architects would have calculated that, once having gained a footing, it would trigger a whole national security response, causing extreme reactions. That's why admitting half-reviewed data into Ring 0 is dangerous. It's not a partisan issue. Any developer knows this.
Bad information can kill you. This should be drilled into their heads. Bad information isn't dud talking points. It's much more serious than that.

Mueller prosecuted what was thought to be a definite contact. After numerous active sonar searches, MAD detection and a bottom search there's nothing. RTB? Keep pinging? Find out why there was a false contact report?
The fact a search brings up nothing doesn't mean it was totally wasted. We take lots of medical tests that are negative. But finding nothing is also information. The taxpayer paid a lot for Mueller's tests. Some people may not like it, but there it is.
The rational thing for the Left to do is find a good candidate for 2020. They can keep looking for the phantom sub but what are the odds?

This is their next talking point in that real facts are being kept secret. Despite knowing full well on the conditions of the law, some of it may not be legally able to be released. Heard yesterday some Democrat on F&F yesterday morning made a comment.
He said that Mueller is a patriot. Pete came back with the kill shot of that statement. He asked if he considered @realDonaldTrump a patriot in light of the vindication. First was the stunned reaction to a question he never considered to be asked,
Then the stammering search for something, anything to say without saying it. Pete pressed him and the fool fell apart. That never entered the Move-On talking point blast.

This is so terrible that I don't know where to start with it

Instead of saying, "here are dumb man skills you no longer need cuz we have Uber and coding now lolllll" how about, "both men AND women benefit from knowing how to defend themselves/fix things"

Aside from Number 7, which is about not holding your feelings in and actually comes off as decent, if not particularly profound advice for men, this is like staring into an abyss of Smug Upper Middle Class Loser Culture.

And I don't even *like* hunting, which is on the list.
Most people don't like being in a situation which can potentially devolve into a physical fight. But there's really nothing wrong with knowing how to throw a punch. Knowing alone makes you more confident.

It's not "toxic masculinity." It's common fucking sense.

I mean, part of it is not leading with stories like these that put it into peoples' minds that she's unlikable before her campaign even gets off the ground.
And why is it that we don't talk about male candidates in terms of "likability"? I'm totally open to being convinced they actually are judged by that measurement, by the way.
The thing about George Bush being elected because of him being the guy you could have a beer with, for me, is different than the way "likable" or "unlikable" is used for female candidates.

I'm gonna tell you a bit of war history, and tie that to some thoughts. This is more or less apropos nothing current, just one of my standing concerns.

2. The United States dropped more tons of bombs on North Vietnam than were dropped by all the belligerents in Europe in WWII.
We were never able to bring them to their knees.
3. North Vietnam was about the size of half of Missouri. Smaller, actually.
Do you know why we couldn't bring them to a halt?
Their culture was too primitive.

Killing time in Bexley and maybe it's my mood but it has some mofo creepy looking places. I mean, who knew these places still existed? I mean just frankly say 'Erotica', give it a lick of paint and stop looking so sleazy. As is, it looks like you sell snuff movies & beastiality.
Next door (yes, next door) to the filth shop is Bexley's public library, and I'm sorry Bexley but it looks like it could do with an exorcism. Just to be on the safe side.
Just no. Something feels wrong here. Like they'll scalp you and then sell you a wig made of cat hair *and* sell you back your own traumatised, plucked-bald cat that you'd put up missing posters for six weeks ago. This is a joke, don't sue me, Village Barber.

Good morning, babies! Welcome to another installment of Lightly Edited For Clarity, where I'm going to take a deep dive into Donald Trump's interview with the Failing New York Times as it is transcribed here. nytimes.com/2017/12/28/us/…
Tips are appreciated. I do this basically for a living, except I don't have anybody paying me an actual salary to do it. Your support lets me keep doing this. paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr…
Back when The Onion was more of a local phenomenon and patterned more after a local newspaper, one of their recurring features/running gags was a series of incoherent movie reviews by a small town amateur critic with a focus problem.
