Did you watch the debate? It seemed like Governor Inslee was given a more prominent role than when he was on stage. At least people praising him and his ideas for a bit. Nice to see before it fades.

    A lot of people have their underwear tied in knots over some ad the Sinclair folks ran during the debate last night. The ad featured AOC and was a pretty damn effective piece of work.

    This next year is going to be absolutely full of these faux outrages over this ad or that one. Buckle up!

    Perhaps you did not notice that the last 2 1/2 years have been absolutely full of faux outrages.

    If McCabe is indicted…we are very close to saying that Trump is a man more sinned against than sinning.

    History 98 at UC Berkeley this Fall:

    The Right to be Lazy: Shifts in Marxist Thought

    Mapping capitalist development from the 19th century to the present we will show how varied struggles have used Marxism as social theory to guide and comprehend their historical moment. Growing out of the workers’ movement at the turn of the 20th century (but always including an anti-work strain) Marxism became a framework of analysis and language of struggle for multiple rebellious groups. Marx’s ideas were taken up by revolutionaries around the globe from the anticolonial militants in Africa and Latin America to those blockading the streets of Paris in 1968 and Italy in the 1970s. We will find in each struggle a Marxism specific to its historical and geographic context, reflected in the various stages of capitalist development. By studying these struggles and the creative responses to conditions they faced, we will try to better understand what it means to be anticapitalist, what are the basic categories of capital, and questions of the revolutionary subject. Some of the thinkers and moments we will be studying include Marx, Frantz Fanon, selections from the Black Panthers, The Situationists, and voices from the queer Berlin squatter movement of the 1990s.

    Special guest lecturer: YLB, who will explain that successful laziness requires a source of capital earned by others from which to leach.

    Friends, liberals, hangers-on, lend me your ears;
    I come to bury Inslee, not to praise him.
    The dumbfuckery that “progressives” spew lives after them;
    The costs of their stupidity are not interred with their bones;
    So would it have been with Inslee.

    @6 “full of faux outrages”

    From the blowhard who posted just yesterday that he’s not gonnba vote for Trump. If you really believe all the outrages he’s accused of are phony, and you agree with his policies, why not vote for him?

    Of course, it’s possible you don’t agree with his policies. It’s possible you’re really a closet socialist. Lots of people who are embarrassed by what they are try to pretend to be something else.

  16. 16

    Cz-252, focusing @ 11 on that “absolute lock” liberals have on Trump’s revenues.

    Meanwhile, this week the Senate confirmed Trump’s 150th judicial appointee.

    You do you, Cz-252. It certainly works for me.

    One more thing. It wasn’t unanimous, and even if it was, Unanimous still would not be correct. That word is capitalized only when it begins a sentence, Cz-252.

    Appointees of Clinton and Obama were the majority, a Bush 41 appointee dissented.

    Cz-252, now game that split out to its final appeal to SCOTUS, and tell us all what will happen.

    Yeah. That.

    @7 Why would an attempt by this administration to prosecute McCabe be seen as anything other than Trump harassing one of his political enemies?

    Well, maybe if he’s indicted, if he’s convicted, if an appeals court upholds the conviction — but those are might big ifs.

    It seems a little premature for you to be banking on all those ifs. But, as I said recently, you’re not much of an armchair lawyer, even by the usual armchair lawyering standards.

  20. 20

    @10 That’s quite a leap from an academic course syllabus to your own half-baked conclusion about what the role of Marxism in history is.

    You don’t have to be a Marxist to study Marxism. And studying the historical role of Marxist ideas in shaping world history doesn’t make someone a Marxist.

    You don’t have to work this hard at proving you’re a dumbfuck. We already take that for granted.

    Read this and understand why Warren is my first choice for president.

    Biden: “Well, they have to deal with—look, there’s institutional segregation in this country. And from the time I got involved, I started dealing with that. Red lining, banks, making sure we are in a position where — look, you talk about education. I propose that what we take is those very poor schools, the Title I schools, triple the amount of money we spend from $15 to $45 billion a year. Give every single teacher a raise to the equal raise of, getting out—the $60,000 level. Number two, make sure that we bring in to help the teachers deal with the problems that come from home. The problems that come from home, we need — we have one school psychologist for every 1,500 kids in America today. It’s crazy. The teachers are — I’m married to a teacher, my deceased wife is a teacher. They have every problem coming to them. We have to make sure that every single child does, in fact, have 3, 4 and 5-year-olds go to school. School. Not day care, school. We bring social workers in to homes and parents, to help them deal with how to raise their children. It’s not that they don’t want to help, they don’t know quite what to do. Play the radio, make sure the television — excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night, the phone — make sure that kids hear words, a kid coming from a very poor school — a very poor background will hear 4 million words fewer spoken by the time they get there. There’s so much –“

    Moderator: “Thank you, Mr. Vice president. “

    Biden: “No, I’m going to go like the rest of them do, twice over. Okay? Because here’s the deal. The deal is that we’ve got this a little backwards. And by the way, in Venezuela, we should be allowing people to come here from Venezuela. I know Maduro. I’ve confronted Maduro. Number two, you talk about the need to do something in Latin America. I’m the guy that came up with $740 million, to see to it those three countries, in fact, changed their system so people don’t have a chance to leave. You’re all acting like we just discovered this yesterday. Thank you very much.”

    Is Biden trying to appeal to the trump voters by talking like him?
    I have to agree with the racist incel @ 1, this was not Biden’s best performance. It reads like Grampa Simpson.

    We can’t bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to tell ’em stories that don’t go anywhere – like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ’em. “Give me five bees for a quarter,” you’d say.

    Now where were we? Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones…

    @ 18

    Why would an attempt by this administration to prosecute McCabe be seen as anything other than Trump harassing one of his political enemies?

    It might have to do with lying to the FBI four separate times when the FBI was investigating the basis for illegal spying on one of Hillary Clinton’s political enemies, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit.

    Careerists in the FBI proved McCabe is a fucking liar. He was a deputy director, not some low-level agent.

    18,
    Barr had to work down through three levels of US Attorneys at DC to find one willing to take the case.

    Discover should be interesting. And lengthy. Mostly it’s about money. But McCabe and his team seem to be doing well enough raising funds. And a Barr-led DOJ that chooses to tie up most available key staff hours and resources tilting at windmills is that much less likely to do real harm.

    @24 Last I checked, McCabe hasn’t been found guilty of anything by anybody, outside of Trump and his political appointees.

    For clarification, I’m not here to defend McCabe, I’m defending the process. If Trump could have his way, McCabe would be shot without a trial. And you’d probably cheer.

    We already know you’d cheer if Hillary was shot without a trial — something Trump probably daydreams about regularly.

    One thing all you rightwing asswipes have in common is you don’t get hung up over due process. Until they come looking for you; then it’s a “witch hunt.”

    Elizabeth Warren resonates in debates because she’s smart and real, says longtime GOP pollster
    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/13/pollster-frank-luntz-on-why-elizabeth-warren-resonates-in-debates.html

    “Warren: “I’ve never met someone who likes their insurance company. They like their doctors, and with this plan they can keep seeing their doctors and not pay a copay or ever have to deal with a middle man whose soul purpose of existence is to profit by finding ways to not provide coverage.””

    Red, Warren serves red meat to her base.

    “Warren is gaining more than any other candidate because her base support is more intense than any other candidate,” Frank Luntz said…

    Her base is a minority of voters. In 2015 Bernie did the same thing. Luntz differentiates Warren from Bernie primarily on the basis that Warren is new.

    No one in the Democrat debates is pounding Warren for not disclosing the costs for Medicare For All. No one in the Democrat debates is pounding Warren for claiming to be a minority in order to advance her career.

    That won’t last, and neither will she.

    The older trumper I tell the truth to on facebook, while he posts racist things left and right, the reason he gives for being a trumper and hates all Democrats with the fury of a 1000 white hot suns is that President Obama personally made his crappy insurance more expensive.
    So yeah, cost of health care will be an issue, with the Hate Wing Media appealing to their base’s unmitigated greed and racism. Rush voice: “The demo-rats are raising your taxes to give free health care to illegals. “

    Gee. Who would have guessed, with the Real Patriotic American Democratic Party continuing to narrow the field toward the nomination contest next year, that a shy-Trumper would respond to debates by setting forth a lengthy 18 post 2+ hour primal scream rationalizing why he will vote for Trump again?

    Yawn. Stretch.

    This was all foreseen and foreseeable.
    This is what virtually every Republican voter you know is going to be doing over the coming weeks and months. However they may characterize themselves, the truth is they are pure tribalists. They all might just as well have Nixon tattoos on their backs like Roger Stone.

    This is precisely what it means to be an EEN-DEE-PEN-DUNCE.
    There will never, ever be any Democrat good enough (white enough, Bubba enough, Xtian enough, etc) for them. In the end that isn’t what any of that bullshit is about. It’s all about robbing the Democrats of their natural base by pulling them further and further to the right economically.

    There are no fiscally conservative, socially progressive voters. They do not exist. Campaigning to voters who do not exist is how Democrats lose elections.

    Whoever the Democratic nominee is, if they win in November it will be because they stuck to a consistent message of progressive economic policy. Because that is what the most people want. Playing down that message only promotes the lies and distortions that will come from the other side.

    Remember: Trillion dollar tax cuts for billionaires, 1000 ship navies that can’t defend themselves against Bayliners, and 1400 mile long walls are NEVER too expensive. But even a single school lunch is an unbearable outrage. They are addicted to this Hayekian bullshit now and it will always be thus. So there is absolutely no point in pandering or soft selling. It only empowers the evil. THERE ARE NO FISCALLY CONSERVATIVE, SOCIALLY LIBERAL VOTERS.

    Then get those new judges confirmed before arguments. And assume that all the pre Trump GOP judges will go along with the idea that a President accepting riches from foreign Govs and US Taxpayers is OK.

    Either way, the losing side goes to SCOTUS keeping this in the public eye for at least the next year or so.

    Stick to what you know. PR and the law isn’t your thing.

    45,
    Continuing to be too lazy to read a voter file (or continuing to support a President who withholds voter file data from GOP Congressional campaigns) is how you lost the House, and how you will lose the Senate.

    Lots and lots of people self-identify as “fiscally conservative, socially liberal”. But then again, lots and lots of people believe in unicorns and “sexy vampires”. The fact is whenever political scientists in the last four cycles have done comprehensive voter studies, what emerges time and time again is that actual fiscally conservative, socially liberal voters are very, very uncommon and have no significant impact on the outcome of elections.

    Even elections in Minnesota. As in many places, voters in Minnesota may cling to certain myths about themselves. And accordingly they may demand that their elected officials talk to them in a certain way about certain things in order to preserve and respect their belief in those myths. But they overwhelmingly support higher taxes on the wealthy, broad universal access to high quality health care, and affordable access to higher education. They support higher minimum wage and public investments in public schools, roads and sewers. Eleven consecutive Republican Presidential nominees have lost Minnesota’s EVs.

    But Trump did better than most.

    How? We don’t have to ask. He lied. Often and with great vigor. As usual he lied about everything. But most importantly he lied about economic policy. Over and over again while campaigning in Minnesota Trump lied about his economic plans. And he did all this while his opponent laid low on the economy. Clinton was, and is, a “New Democrat” fully wedded to the idea of somehow threading the needle of pandering to the super-wealthy while promoting bullshit schemes for “public-private” partnerships and “economic opportunity zones”. Big shock: plain spoken lies worked perhaps better than carefully parsed nonsense.

    That was then. Now you and Trump have a big fucking problem. You’ve spent three years beating up little sobbing Guatemalan girls, giving massive deficit exploding tax breaks to billionaires, pandering to irrational murderous dictators, and launching trade wars with everyone. The lies are all out in the open. Minnesota knows exactly who you are now. And you Teh Dumbfuck – regardless of how you describe yourself to yourself and you desperately choke-fap in OfDumbfuck’s closet – you are a fiscally conservative, socially conservative voter.
    That is manifestly obvious.

    And it is why you will vote for Trump next year, and why you will always vote GOP. We Democrats are not interested in your vote. It comes with too much baggage, and too many sobbing Guatemalan toddlers.
