The Lief Reservoir of Simple Truths and Smart One-Liners

[Mr. Smith]

Can people please quit acting like "Sanders supporter"= deranged anti-Hillary raving lunatic who spouts right wing talking points?

Because polls make it obvious that's not true at all. They're showing at worst 75% of Sanders supporters intend to vote for her, and we all know that the vast majority of those "undecideds" aren't truly undecided.

(Also, looking at the poll on pornography, Canadians are probably fairly more honest overall than Americans.)

It's dishonest to believe that something you do is immoral?

When Al is asking the questions and not providing the answer when it comes to British politics you know stuff are completely off the rails and upside down.

Code:

Yeah that's pretty horrible. From one Pokemon Go fan to others out there, have some damn self control.

Yeah. It even kinda bugs me when people go to cemeteries to play it.

The game is designed so you have to go to a gravestone in order to get certain things you need in order to play.

Why not go to a cemetery? We played in a cemetery every Thanksgiving when we were kids, next door to where we had Thanksgiving dinner.

Why not go to a Holocaust Memorial either?

As long as it's not distracting others, let it happen.

Because they're sh!tting all over the memory of the victims of one of the worst crimes in human history, that's why.  

How? The app is making many visit and learn about places they never would have otherwise.

...

If you go to the Holocaust museum to play a video game, you shouldn't be there in the first place.  Play somewhere else.  When did showing respect for Holocaust victims become a novel idea?

I'm not sure, but I know one thing for certain:  The incestuous relationship between boards of directors and CEOs is one of the biggest cancers eating away at America, and I'd try anything to try to change the dynamic.

Technocrats are dictators with a fancy name.

Technocrats are dictators with a fancy name.

Oh man that's really great.

One of the better lines I've seen on here tbh.

The Turkish military may be secular, but it sure as hell isn't liberal by any functional definition, as the periods of time in which Turkey was under military rule in living memory can demonstrate. Kemalism is actually a pretty scary doctrine.

Should be forwarded to the media asap

[Joe Republic]

New Hampshire is slightly more surprising, because Mitt was the best fit there of any of his home states.  I think this is more a matter of the state just trending D.  If you look at the rural areas in the western half of the state (NH-02), they are moving like Vermont did last decade.  Mitt did well in wealthy suburban areas, but "East Vermont" was just too much to overcome.  I think you will see Republican nominees increasingly ignore NH from this point on.  It's small, out of the way and an increasingly tough nut to crack even with the right type of nominee.

So... why is Atlas falling for the "NH is a pure Tossup" thing again?

I mean, no one really gives a shlt but you, bro.

[Joe Republic]

Is this the only place to buy a cake?  And they don't like gay people?  Seems like a perfect business opportunity for someone that isn't a bigot.

In many towns, DeadO, there is only one bakery (or at least only one outside Wal-Mart).

Besides "just search around until you find someone who'll take your kind" isn't the appropriate response here, morally, ethically, or politically. Ever.

It's not like one of our most active posters has a socialist avatar or anything...

TBF, many social avatars are faux revolutionaries and undercover CAPITALISTS™.

Hey, don't blame him.  Maybe somebody gave him a dirty look?  Or made him feel unwelcome?

a garbage poster praising a garbage poster? shocking!

You guys are better at recruiting than I could have ever imagined.

Error: Insufficient sample size

We aren't THAT small of a group.

You are.  Turn on the TV.  There is a lot happening out there and it isn't all about you.

Did I say that? No. Wanting the smallest shred of acknowledgment does not equal egotism.

An obvious truth from a newbie.

They're not small government...Just government that agrees with their view on the world.

If they were small government they'd allow people to marry who they please and end the war on drugs.

Good Lord.  In before Classic Conservative defends this piece of garbage.  If I lived in his district, I'd vote Democrat for the first time in my life in a major election.

Forget my shame he's in my party, he's a disgrace to Americans.

Let me know when you stop being a RINO and come home to the Democratic party where you belong?  Your GOP membership status is literally rino at this point.

LOL, GMAFB.  Every time Torie, Shadow or Walter Mitty posts one of their economic views, someone posts an "R-NY/FL/MA" avatar.  Centrists have a comically small amount of power in both parties.  Hillary Clinton is a standard liberal; if you want to see how centrists - or more importantly someone with even more liberal views than I have - gain traction in the Democratic Party, look how Chafee and Webb fared.

I'd go so far as to say there are more elected *moderate* Republicans (especially governors) than *moderate* Democrats.

Atlas is a strange place, where they want all moderate Democrats to become Republicans, and all moderate Republicans to become Democrats.

[🐒Gods of Prosperity🔱🐲💸]

I'd be offended by the idea of a break room TV. Seriously, must we have boob tubes shoved down our faces in all public places? It was just marginally acceptable in the era before people could use their own personal electronics to feed their video addictions. Fight Big Brother, eliminate telescreens from our public places!

[Antonio the Sixth]

Fck him.  I get that he's not meant to be taken seriously and that he's making a fortune off of making a joke of journalism and stuff... BUT THAT'S WHY HE'S SO TERRIBLE!  I don't give a sht about Gamergate and I can't get through even a summary of this "scandal" without frankly being bored to tears and progressively losing more and more faith in humanity.  Quit broadcasting these assholes and giving them money.  If you doc drop anyone for any reason, you should be banned from the site you're using it for if not prosecuted for invasion of privacy.  Mainstream journalism hasn't had an ounce of integrity to it since the 1960s, so even if Milo was working for a legitimate cause, it's clearly a failing one.  Give it a fcking rest - especially his fanboys.

So we go from DWS to Al Gore's campaign manager?

Well considering Al Gore won the 2000 Presidential election, the DNC is in good hands!

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

Huge FF against PC culture.  He's like a shock jock...An Andrew Dice Clay...A George Carlin. Most of his BS is for the shock value and you have to "get the joke" or you're just too serious.

No, Carlin, Clay, and Howard Stern are offensive for humorous reasons. They don't have serious points to make outside of poking some fun or making people laugh. Milo is offensive because he's a downright bad person. There is a huge difference.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

This whole weekend did for me.

Whatever you get up to on weekends that makes you feel like a girl is none of our business.

[Antonio the Sixth]

The only way to absolutely guarantee defeat is to assume that it's going to happen.

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

STOP RESISTING!!!! is the new Clarion Call for cops.  They know they're being recorded so they scream this at even the most immobile suspect, while continuing to beat the sh**t out of him.  Thankfully this was just a take-down.  I can't imagine what the cop would do to a real criminal/
