– Emmett’s piece on how different people see Downtown Olympia probably scales to other downtowns.

– You need to know how to parallel park before you get on the road, Maryland drivers.

– The only Republican answer on Iraq that would make any sense is that it was the wrong decision. It’s surprising how few can do that.

– Top 5 Irritating Agency Operations Habits

– The diverse crowd of advocates, business owners and community leaders shows that the tide has turned overwhelmingly in favor of taking bold action to make Rainier Ave safer. This is a street where safe streets advocates have long felt resistance. It takes a big shift in mindset for communities to realize busy, scary streets can and should be made safer for everyone. It’s beautiful to realize that shift has happened, and this dangerous street’s days are numbered.

– It’s sad that one only need replace “back then” with “nowadays” and Assata could be describing life in 2015, not the 1960s of her youth.

    White people, take responsibility for your Waco thugs: Black Americans are tired of being the country’s conscience
    The Waco riot is another reminder that the burden of talking patiently about race falls unfairly on people of color
    MENSAH DEMARY

    (last paragraph)
    How do I make you give up your privilege to see the disgusting inequity in news coverage, how biker thugs become “gangs,” then “clubs,” despite being listed as organized crime organizations? Why should I, or anyone like me, lead this discussion? What do you care if 100 bikers shoot at each other? It’s not endemic of a larger, deeper flaw in the white American population. And if it is, white privilege then becomes the impenetrable shield like a cocoon. There will be no #AllLivesMatter marches in Waco, Texas. There will be no calls—demands—for denouncements. There will only be us. People of color. Attempting to have another one-sided conversation for the greater good. Because that is our role as the so-called conscience of America. But should you feel the need to change this narrative, then yes—please—denounce the gangs. Apologize. Repent for the actions of your people. Or not. That is your privilege. Enjoy.

    Of course the assholes here, and you know who you are, won’t read it…and their heads will explode anyway.

    Biker Gangs, Tamir Rice, And The Rise Of White Fragility
    By AURIN SQUIRE Published MAY 22, 2015, 6:00 AM EDT

    Recently released records show that Cleveland Police would have wanted to charge 12-year-old Tamir Rice with inducing panic and being an “aggravated menace.” He was shot and killed by an officer in less than two seconds while playing in the park with a toy gun. This development is juxtaposed with the news that a violent biker gang in Waco, Texas shot up a restaurant parking lot. Nine biker gang members were killed. Police arrested 170 gang members, and confiscated countless weapons. Apparently those 170 weren’t an aggravated menace worthy of immediate death.

    Bill O’Reilly and all the Fox blabbermouths? ‘Boob’ the sloppiest of sloppy solipsists? The puddyfuckwad (who only thinks he’s white)?

    What gives?

    So, I was reading a National Journal piece

    Democrats’ Vanishing Future

    http://www.nationaljournal.com.....e-20150521

    about the depleted Democrat ranks – interesting piece, that – and began wondering about the once-appreciated Dems who aren’t around any more. They were referred to as ‘moderates’, back when that didn’t mean ‘far-right’ to the current Dem standard-bearers.

    Anyway, I thought about Evan Bayh. Remember him?

    He’s only 59, Google tells me.

    And he’s not totally without financial backing:

    Paul Kane @pkcapitol
    Evan Bayh is sitting on so much $$$ ($9.9m as of 12/31/14) that his committee earned $350k in interest & mutual fund sales in 2013-14.
    9:00 AM – 24 Mar 2015

    Late entry to IN Senate race next year?

    Keeping his powder dry until the moment Team Hillary implodes?

    Lotta money just sitting there.

    @ 3

    Apparently the baby who got his face blown off by the flashbang grenade in Georgia last year is the only one who could reasonably be held responsible for his injuries. He criminally blocked the trajectory of the grenade and refused to seek adequate cover from it’s effects.

    So, one can have their home raided by local Sheriffs deputies with the assistance of Military criminal investigators based entirely on the word of a mysterious and as-yet unidentified “informant” who has a long standing record of petty crimes but as yet, remains totally anonymous.

    No evidence of any illegal conduct was found at the home as a result of the raid.

    So, one can dress up as a cop and burn the meat off of the head and chest of a sleeping baby and shrug one’s shoulders and say “them’s the breaks”.

    Too bad, so sad.

    @ 3

    WTF? Nine people were killed, and your link bemoans that 170 others didn’t join them?

    It’s alleged

    http://bloximages.chicago2.vip.....c9.pdf.pdf

    that the police fired ‘thousands of shots’ during the episode. That’s hundreds of shots fired per dead body, Rujax.

    It would be more accurate to bemoan that the police weren’t more accurate. ’cause then there would be more dead bodies.

  11. 11

    @ 9

    By crazy or full of shit, did you mean Hillary?

    Or Bayh?

    Care to elaborate?

    @ 11

    Your headline: Democrats’ Vanishing Future

    The problem with that is, that the TeaFascist party is mostly made up of the old former (or current) neochristianist John Birch Society assholes, who mostly never did anything to educate themselves once they had graduated high school back in the 1940s and 50s.

    They’re still bitching about having to go to school with niggers. They’re still pissed off about forced bussing. They’re still on a freakout about that commie pinko fuck Eisenhower being elected President.

    They’re dying off.

    Thank the Great Pasta for that.

    @ 12

    Ah. That answered my question @ 11.

    Headline: “Democrats’ Vanishing Future”

    The headline that is more relevant: “The big problem for Republicans in 2016: Millions of them are literally dying”

    http://www.businessinsider.com.....ing-2015-5

    If you think that’s bad news for the GOP in 2016, by the time Vice President Julian Castro runs in 2024, all of today’s Republican voters will be dead.

    Little wonder the GOP is inviting biker gangs into their Big Tent.

    Deep bench, “Republican’s’ Promising Future”

    Hey, wingnut campaign staffer! Wanna work on a Fiorina campaign again?

    “I’d rather go to Iraq than work for Carly Fiorina again,” said one high-level former campaign staffer, who asked not to be identified, citing disclosure restrictions in his contract.”

    http://www.rawstory.com/2015/0.....-on-again/

    LMFAO! So glad to see Bob concern trolling about the Democrat’s bench.

    @7

    I read that. It was on Reddit. Interesting to juxtapose that with the Politico analysis of the Republican die-off from a few days ago.

    Cool to see National Journal’s fantasy on display. It works like this. Because Hillary is going to be the nominee and then trounce whatever freak the GOP nominates and be the next president, that no one is challenging her is proof that there are no up and comers in the Democratic party.

    Truthiness.

    Just off the top of my head:
    Martin O’Mally who is actually running for the nomination but won’t win is in his early 50s. Maryland has two Democratic Senators so he’s got a winnable National Office if one retires.
    Hickenlooper I believe will be early 60s when he’s termed out.
    The next governor of California will be Gavin Newsome who is not yet 50.
    Kamala Harris I don’t think is 50 yet.
    After another 10 years of demographic shift in Texas Wendy Davis will still be there.
    Tammy Duckworth? Kristen Gillibrand?
    Even our own Jay Inslee won’t be too old for another run for something when he finishes his second term as Governor.

    So yeah, if you look at ONLY the 2016 presidential race and who isn’t in then yeah, there is no next generation of Democrats.

    The whole article smells of a writer trying to convince himself. Truthiness.

    It’s alleged … that the police fired ‘thousands of shots’ during the episode. That’s hundreds of shots fired per dead body, Rujax.

    Travis, you really expect rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears to read and comprehend that document? rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears will need to find a left wrong site to translate it first then deliver that pithy response!

    Wanna comprehend how checkmate is a real informationless moron… Read this fart…

    Maryland has two Democratic Senators so he’s got a winnable National Office if one retires.

    Puddy already discussed this back in March… If checkmate actually invested a few seconds he would have figured out Mikulski announced her retirement on March 2nd 2015. Puddy discussed this March 6th. Chris Van Hollen announced he wants it. Chris is white. Harry Reid is backing the white guy of course. http://hotair.com/archives/201.....ell-begin/ There it is again… those progressive racial identity reasons

    There is just one problem for Van Hollen. For an increasingly progressive Democratic Party steeped in identity politics, replacing one of the Senate’s leading female voices with a white male is seen by many as an undesirable prospect. Fortunately for Democrats, there is another option: Rep. Donna Edwards (D-MD). Though she has not declared her intention to run for Mikulski’s seat, and would likely frustrate Democratic leadership if she did, she has expressed her interest in running for the U.S. Senate from her home state.

    And Donna Edwards declared on March 10!

    Once again checkmate doesn’t read or pay attention to the details.

    @21

    I’m really glad Huckabee is forgiving. I wonder what the (I assume) girls feel about being abused. The Duggars, and the Huckabees probably, are like most of the new Christianist movement in America. It really doesn’t matter what the women think. In their paternalistic world view the Man’s decision and actions are always followed. So as long as the Duggar’s made sure Josh was O.K. then nothing else really matters. The men are the bread winners/impregnators/Oath Keepers however the Chirstianist wants to describe the male dominance all is justifiable.

    There are plenty of stories about what the Quiverfull life is like for daughters.

    Sounds lovely and not at all surprising that to spare Josh potential criminal charges the family rallied around him and not the girls he abused.

    So Mike, gonna go get the female vote? One of the many reasons Huckabee will never be elected to anything again.

    @22

    Van Hollen I think is in his early 50s I have no idea how old Donna Edwards is but I know she’s a black woman. HEE, HEE, HEE, HEE. Nope, no one ready to step in there. But you got me. Off the top of my head I can’t name both of Maryland’s Senators or if one of them has announced retirement.

    And yep, I’m sure HotAir is totally keyed in on how the Democratic leadership will abandon Donna Edwards if she wins a primary. No Truthiness in HotAir’s reporting I’m sure. “When I’m looking for inside information on what Democrats think I go to HotAir. I mean Media Matters is the #1 authority on Republican party inner workings” Piddles, or words to that effect.

    Unlike Piddles, I’m not on here 30 posts a day every day so of course I don’t pay attention to something Piddles might have spooged two months or so ago.

    I have no idea how old Donna Edwards is but I know she’s a black woman. – Well why didn’t you look up her age then checkmate? Wait… you love checkmating yourself in every post!

    Oh, Piddles…”off the top of my head.” At lots of points in a day I might have a few minutes to toss-off a post. Was that “off the top of my head” post worth Googling for more info…not really. It’s enough to point out that yes, there are not one, not two but THREE democrats in Maryland ready to run for national office even if National Review writes that the Democrats have no bench.

    Quick, without googling, who are the two senators from Idaho. Get it right and I’ll buy you a beer…oh, right.

    Okay Puddy will play along…

    Puddy knows about Larry Wide Stance Craig. Puddy don’t know the other senator. No need to because nuthin really happening in Idaho that affects national politics these days!

    Does rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears ever think about what it posts? The political implications or becuz it’s on fartingpartsmemo it’s A-OK becuz that’s the gospel truth for a DUMMOCRETIN?

    Cleveland Police – Cleveland; a very blue town in a blue county. Remember, it was the political makeup of the Cuyahoga County Commissioners that tripped up the early onset senile schismatic IDIOT Wabbit!

    And did rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears watch those bikers loot? Did they burn down the restaurant they met in? How about torching the bikes parked out front?

    As Puddy stated before, the peeps Puddy listens to called them thugs. If the libtard msm can’t call white biker gangs thugs then you need to talk to the hand rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears, becuz it’s your media kind that frame the discussion not conservatives.

    Butt, being as moronic as you are rujaxoffallthetimestillprovingnuthinappears, you’ll never comprehend this!

    Hilarious to watch DUMMOCREINS twist themselves into pretzels trying to defend the confessed child molester in their midst.

    Oh, and @ the Schitz @ 40

    Uh, seeing as how that guy has long since passed into history, how is it relevant to Huckabee openly defending a confessed incestuous child molester? Nobody really defended Mel Reynolds. If he’s a spider he gets treated like one.

    Do not neglect moods of depression in your children. Plan a time to talk it out.

    Do not allow boys to change diapers, especially of baby sisters.

    Womenz getting wrapped all over American colleges, and yup you found the one and possibly the only one regarding a gay person raping. Using your logic you would think gay guys can’t rape because they didn’t insert their penis into a vagina, so it’s not rape.

    @55. I know you are trying desperately to find some sort of faux outrage in this for some sort of false equivalency argument. Comic book extremists were outraged when Nic Fury was recast as as black and now they love him. Not that you follow comics but fans also thought Robert Downy Jr would be a terrible Iron Man, Andrew Garfield as spiderman, or Keith Ledger as Joker was a bad idea. Fans have a mental image of who the characters are and movies mess with that.

    Since you also possess 24 hour moronic moonbattic memory malady… It wasn’t Puddy who first identified these freaky geeks as being whom they are on HA DUMMOCRETINS. Puddy can’t create threads on HA DUMMOCRETINS you moron! Maybe you should refresh your memory whom alerted the HA DUMMOCRETIN crowd and us whom think right!

    Then maybe worser you’d become educated again. Well that is a tall order for someone as naturally stooooooooooooooooopid as you are!

    Goldy, it seems the naturally stooooooooooooooooopid DUMMOCRETINS gravitate to this site.

    Since Alexander Haley wrote the Roots saga as a memoir of his family tree what you suggested above is ludicrous and moronic… like 99.99999999% of your daily posts! Taylor Lautner? Who’s he? Man crush? That person you suggest could be the white massa though!
