DLBottlePlease join us for an evening of politics over a pint at tonight’s Seattle Chapter of Drinking Liberally.

We meet tonight and every Tuesday at the Montlake Ale House, 2307 24th Avenue E. Starting time is 8:00pm, but people will show up earlier than that for Dinner.


Can’t make it to Seattle tonight? Check out another DL meeting over the next week. Tonight the Tri-Cities chapter also meets. The Longview and South Seattle chapters meet this Wednesday. Also on Wednesday, the nation’s newest chapter, the Lakewood, Washington Drinking Liberally chapter, will meet. And for Thursday, the Spokane and Tacoma chapters meet.

With 207 chapters of Living Liberally, including sixteen in Washington state, four in Oregon, and two more in Idaho, chances are excellent there’s a chapter meeting near you.

    Yep, they’re trying to get us sucked into another endless war we can’t afford to fight and that we have no need to be in. I’m not saying a chemical agent wasn’t used, but the last thing the U.S. needs is another war to fight.

    Unnamed British sources claim a soil sample of undetermined age or location has, as admitted, no trace of Sarin but some unidentified trace chemical. So of course it’s a weapon.

    Maryland taxes the rain on your property. Imagine of libtards paid that tax in WA State!

    Last week the Maryland legislature passed and Gov. Martin O’Malley signed a law that taxes property owners on the basis of “the square footage of impervious surfaces on a property,” according to MarylandReporter.com. “The rationale is that roofs, driveways and parking lots create more potential for drainage problems and water contamination. Local jurisdictions are supposed to determine how much to charge per square foot, but in general, the size of the fee would depend on the size of the buildings and paved surfaces on a property.”

    Libtards love taxes.

    Government property is exempt from the tax, but religious and nonprofit organizations are subject to it. A bill to exempt nonprofits — including environmental organizations — was proposed but failed.

    And they hate others not like them! Tax the sun next? How about moon shine?

    Hungary has fallen to a Nazi government. President János Áder, the leader of a radical-rightist, anti-semetic nationalist party has banned all opposition parties, and has apparently ordered the arrests of University Professors, Jewish and Gay community leaders and opposition Party members and ordered the removal of any reference to Hungary being a “Republic” from the Constitution.

Your own heroes from what you’ve said in the past. It is the New Apostolic Reformation that openly states as a matter of it’s own platform their delusion that, for Jezuz to return and make the world a happy place for White European Christian Capitalists, the Jews must first all be exterminated, and Isreal be destroyed. The folks that say openly, that the AntiChrist will be a Jew who brings peace to the world.

    Your only “love” for Jewish people is the sort that a rapist daddy has for his daughter, until she disobeys him by reporting his baby rapist ass to the cops.

    There are a hundred very good reasons why every Jewish person I know is watching the Tea Party like a hawk. They’ve seen it all before, repeatedly. And they know their own history very well.

    Piddles, with all the blogs you read, you don’t know much. Yesterday you were insinuating that the Bush Administration’s disastrous failure to recognize a democratic election would have been different if Fatah had won. Today, having done a little research and finding out that Fatah also denied the right of Israel to exist, you’ve changed your tune. And knowing a smidgen about the region, having Fatah or Hamas win an election among Palestinians couldn’t have been predicted by anyone, right?

    Back to square one. If George W. Bush stood for democracy around the globe, why refuse to even fake talks with the Democratically elected representatives of Palestinians? Better to just telegraph to any emerging Democracies that their elections don’t matter if they get it wrong? Or was his administration totally uninterested in Israeli/Palestinian peace and nakedly full of it about standing for Democracy? Or maybe he was dumb as a post like we suspected?

    I should point out that this discussion started with you not knowing dick about The 2002 Venezuelan coup. Maybe you need to read 40 blogs a day as information only sticks after 39 readings.

    New Study Discredits Economic Basis Of Austerity Policies

    The academic foundation of austerity policies favored by conservatives and European governments just got blown to hell:

    “Fiscal policies pursued by the U.S. and Europe could be called into question after a new study challenged influential research from two Harvard economists which said debt over a certain level was dangerous for countries.

    “Economists at the University of Massachusetts have released a report that attacks the findings of economists Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff, whose 2010 paper ‘Growth in a Time of Debt’ became the driving force for debt reduction and austerity in the developed world” for what the authors called “serious errors” in Reinhart’s and Rogoff’s handling of data in their study.

    NBC-10 Philadelphia reported that, Stephen Massof, a former Gosnell worker, “described how he snipped the spinal cords of babies, calling it, ‘literally a beheading. It is separating the brain from the body.” One former worker, Adrienne Moton, testified that Gosnell taught her his “snipping” technique to use on infants born alive.

    Babies born alive… Well from the latest HA lunatic libtard leftist comments on abortion, Puddy thinks y’all are babies born mind-dead… Mindless numbskull pro-abortion robots.

    So 9200 late term abortions were just for fun? And one of his associates performed a modified Gosnell on a live baby!

    Remember Tiller was from Kansas, where Kathleen Sebelius was guvnur and now Obummer Chief Minister of ObummerCare!

    It’s such a pain trying to set him straight, when he’s clearly bent like a pretzel. It’s like having the conversation, “Did you bring your lunch today?”…”No, I rode my bike.”

    Here’s a good take-down of the piddl-like Kermit Gossnell screamers, the right winger who dearly desire to end women’s rights to autonomy over their own uteri.

    From the head of the Philadelphia Women’s Center…

    “Now, instead of people who morally oppose what I do just being outside my door on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, they are emboldened on the state Senate floor to ‘save women’s lives.’ Yet, nothing has been done to provide low-income women with dignified health care, including safe abortion care.” Instead, they are making abortion early in pregnancy more difficult to get — in trying to shut down legitimate providers, in seeking to restrict how women can access medication abortion, and in making women go through expensive and shaming obstacle courses before exercising their constitutional right to end a pregnancy.

    Moreover, restricting early-term abortions drives desperate women to desperate measures, including late term abortions. Will ending women’s rights to comprehensive health care end abortions? Nope – it’ll be back to the coat-hangers, ladies.

    Coupled with the right-wing’s abhorrence of comprehensive sex- and health-education, and their dogged attempts to end adequate access to and distribution of contraceptives and peoples’ ability to control their fertility, particularly women, it becomes obvious that this is not really about abortion…this is about controlling and shaming and marginalizing both sexuality specifically and women in general.

    This is the agenda of the radical Bibul-thumpers – back to the 11th century, when wimmins knew their place.

    Well…this is interesting, too…

    However, some experts have speculated that the wealthy may be less generous—that the personal drive to accumulate wealth may be inconsistent with the idea of communal support. Last year, Paul Piff, a psychologist at UC Berkeley, published research that correlated wealth with an increase in unethical behavior: “While having money doesn’t necessarily make anybody anything,” Piff later told New York magazine, “the rich are way more likely to prioritize their own self-interests above the interests of other people.” They are, he continued, “more likely to exhibit characteristics that we would stereotypically associate with, say, assholes.”

    This does support my (uncontrolled and non-scientific) observation that when someone blows through a stop sign not on their turn when others are waiting appropriately, they’re usually driving a BMW.

I will never have to make the decision to get an abortion. I wouldn’t want a woman forcing me to get a vasectomy, or get a circumcision or to amputate a limb against my will.

    My point was abortion becomes much much more unsafe when it’s banished from a hospital or clinic and done instead in some alley with a coat hanger, or they try to use some old superstition technique to terminate the pregnancy.

    Honestly, I don’t even have the language to write about what it was like when abortion wasn’t legal, since it’s been legal and available for so long, much of the horrible ways and consequences have faded from common memory. It’s like writing about the bad old days of slavery, or what life was like before penicillin. (Just because the details have faded, doesn’t mean society should revert, just so we can write about them in vivid detail.)

    The man could have approached it with sadness or disgust or dismay about a corporation weaseling out of paying it’s fair share.

    One Regal theater manager told FoxNews.com the move has sparked a wave of resignations from full-time managers who have seen their hours cut by 25 percent or more.

    “In the last couple weeks, managers have been quitting on a daily basis from various locations to try and find full-time work,” said the manager, who asked not to be named. “Regal up until now has never restricted anyone to anything below 40 hours.”

    Roger Rabbit Commentary: I wonder how many safety inspectors Texas still has after GOP Gov. Rick Perry’s budget cutting? I know he eliminated 80% of the state’s wildfire fighting budget, then had to beg for $50 million of federal emergency aid from President Socialist.

    So by Roger’s logic the Anacortes Tesoro Oil Refinery Fire that killed five people should have never happened because WA State led by DUMMOCRAPTS had all the safety inspectors needed to prevent it. You see DUMB Wabbit, Puddy remembers!

    It sounds like the town lost most of their fire department. The plant was on fire and firefighters were on the scene when the explosion leveled the plant and surrounding area. The blast area was about a 5-block radius.

    It sounds worse, as for Fire Departments, than 9/11, I mean, the FDNY lost 343. The SFD, lost 4 in the Pang Warehouse fire, 2 from the same company, Engine 13. Not since the 1950s has the SFD seen a fire this fatal, and what West, Texas is going through, is going to be much higher.

    As former Kansas City Chiefs coach Herm Edwards would say, ‘ don’t press send,’ a NDP candidate in British Columbia is wishing she had not made disparaging comments towards French Canadians, and more importantly, First Nations(aka Native Americans). The leader of the NDP has announced that candidate is out, and a replacement will be announced shortly.

    The irony is that seat, Kelowna-Mission, May have got the most news it is going to get in the campaign. The fight will be in Vancouver and it’s suburbs. That is where the voters, and the seats are.

    In terms of destruction, only the Great Fire of 1889, could be on par with what we are seeing. Things changed in that fire, for the better. First, we got a professional fire department.

    Or this political correctness…

    As we approached the theater on Loudon Road, we thought it wasn’t being shown at all. That’s because the theater opted to advertise for ‘Help Wanted’ in the No. 10 theater slot, which is where the film was being shown. You really had to look hard to see 2016 way off in the lower right corner. I pointed this out to the ticket sales person who seemed totally disinterested. He did, however, let it be known that 2016 was only being shown because so many had called requesting it.

    Seems Regal Cinemas liked DUMMOCRAPT Harold Ford Jr in 2004 and 3 Republicans and 1 DUMMOCRAPT in 2012.

    Speaking of asswipes….you are the master, cheapshot, of the false equivalence and bait-and-switch tactic.

    Unsafe workplaces and industrial accidents are a vastly greater threat to our health and safety than random acts of terrorism.

    It would take OSHA 137 years to inspect all the workplaces in Texas, to illustrate the hobbling of safety enforcement…by Republican ‘small government’ assholes.

    Moreover, from the Dallas Morning News…

    The fertilizer plant that exploded Wednesday night in West, Texas, reported to the Environmental Protection Agency and local public safety officials that it presented no risk of fire or explosion, documents show.

    Liars.

    This is what Republican philosophy of government brings us.

    @123. On NPR, they were saying that the liquid fertilizer, anhydrous ammonia, is not flammable, but the plant kept the substance in liquid form by putting it in tanks under very high pressure. When the tanks are exposed to fire, the liquid turns to gas and it exploded.

    So when they say “it presented no risk of fire or explosion”, that could be technically true, but it could be like Serial Conn’s weasel words, anhydrous ammonia was safe-ish in isolation, but not stored in hi pressure tanks exposed to high heat.

    You know, perhaps you should consider reaching out to few more people that tend to vote against their own interests, meaning working class people who can’t afford to drop into an upscale bar and pay five and a half bucks for a beer. You can’t get the message to these people while gauging them a half hours wages just to drink and pontificate on what ails society.
