Look, if half of them put their legs in a pool, you get 1,044,200,000 cockroaches!

Thank you. Kudos to this place for not downvoting me to hell for saying I'm independent.

It's often sandwiched, too.

Negative - Positive - But - Negative.

"It was a rainy day during his speech creating a bad look. Supporters cheered for the speaker for the full hour, but the cheers were interrupted at the end by counter protesters."

(Full Disclosure: I'm not on any team, and not from the US. I just hate manipulative media.)

You may be surprised that I'm not on any team (including the Trump team, I'm not even from the US), but holy shit is this effectively made.

"This video has been removed for violating YouTube's Terms of Service."

Wut. I was still able to see it, it was just showing the protests?!

Everyone and no one is allowed to be hated on by this idiotic new Reddit rule. For instance, in an African city where white people are minority, they could now hate on blacks. Reddit is now full-blown racist.

It was on his very first campaign web site, somewhere under Missions/ Goals/ Plans, or whatever that section was called. I had actually read through that site, and made a mental note about the curious increasing of troop strength in Afghanistan they had put down there. Maybe it's still up on Archive.org somewhere if you want to check for yourself, myself I saw it first-hand.

Obama's first campaign actually proclaimed he wanted to increase troop strength in Afghanistan. It wasn't touted in his speeches or anything, but still printed in the campaign overview for all to read.

As the article says, Google gave a statement that they want to fix it. Maybe they already did.

Since his writer team probably wants to avoid any "He can't remember" memes, maybe they're going for an aggressive "I remember exactly, and nothing happened". Will they put his wife next to him like during Bill Clinton's interview?

Wait, you think Hillary was likable?

I feel Kamala Harris is more likely, because that would earn Twice The Identity Points. Nevermind that she's corrupt...

She may not be dumb in all regards, but she greenlit the campaign slogan "Love Trumps Hate", which from a persuasion point of view is one of the dumbest slogans the world ever saw. It was only recently surpassed by "No Malarkey"...

They said the borders with Italy, not "to". They now changed their article to "cutting travel ties" and issued a correction note at the end.

Mossadegh was largely representing secularity (separation of state and religion), and he was fucking overthrown by the US & UK. Geopolitically the US doesn't give a rat's ass about a country's religion, as long as it can secure strategic interests like oil. So how about we get out of the Middle East and stop creating power vacuums like with the Iraq invasion? If you believe people there will then go for religious crazy leaders, let them... but do know that putting soldiers all around the country is often pushing those crazy leaders because people don't want outside threats.

Maybe "Fuck the Iran leaders", if anything. Its people are humans just like you and me, with hopes for a better life and peace. Humans, it should be noted, surrounded by foreign soliders on pretty much all bordering countries.

I wonder why Muslims have never done this before?

Well, when Iran did have a leader with popular backing, like Mossadegh in the 1950s who introduced such things as unemployment compensation, paying benefits to injured workers, or -- gasp -- allowing the country to use its own oil assets (Iran First, against globalization)... they get overthrown by the Deep State of the US & UK.

Our installed guy, the Shah, then reigned so unpopularily with terror and blood, it slowly led to the Iranian Revolution at the end of the 1970s which in turn brought another asshole, Khomeini.

"And by the way, you know... I sit on the stand... and it get hot... I got a lotta... I got hairy legs... that turn... that that that that that turn... uh blond in the sun... And the kids used to come up and reach in the pool and rub my leg down ... so it's straight, and then watch the hair come come back up again ... and look at ... so I learned about roaches ... I learned about kids jumping up my lap... and I love kids jumping up my lap".

What does he even mean by that?

If Trump had said this, it would have been a worldwide mainstream media news story for 48 hours.

I'm with Scott Adams: Make all sports gender-neutral, then sort by skill leagues.

It is called Cover Your Ass:

  • They have zero intent to actually do anything for people of color
  • They have full intent to fill some legally required quota

Given above, they can only lose by actually questioning someone.
