Before long, Black Lies Matter will join forces with ISIS to being down our legal constituted republic. You heard it first here.

Remember when Ferris was saying Clarke should have ran for president.

But why isn't the world flat?
Time

EyeShotFirst said:

Anyone that has looked through a high powered telescope will note that nearly every massive object in our solar system seems to be round in shape. I just don’t see why conspiracy theorists would think we would be the special planet that is flat. You want to discuss bigfoot, mothman, and people of power doing ceremonies underneath an owl statue at Bohemian Grove, I’m with you. I just have never heard a single argument that would make me believe the earth is flat. Do any of these flat-earthers ever fly internationally? Do they think it’s weird that you leave the central USA to fly west to Europe and also fly east to go to Europe?

The image you see through a telescope is controlled by the government. Venus and the other planets are false flags. The concepts of East and West are propoganda first installed by the Catholic Church in the 1400s. Airplanes and international air travel don’t actually exist; you’ve just been brainwashed into thinking they are.

Don’t be a spheroid truther. Spread these facts that come from my overly paranoid brain!

I’m guessing some of you don’t remember this.

False equivalency.

Not so. A President is within his legal power to do it no matter which President it is.

This has nothing to do with my point, and everything to do with why it’s pointless to engage you on any topic.

Well then, explain, why do you believe it is a false equivalent?

Because Comey is not under investigation for using public funds for private use.

Because Sessions was not investigating Clinton’s possible collusion with another nation to > undermine the election.

Fair enough but I didn’t say anything about it being equivalent.

But when I said “false equivalency” you said “not so”…argh, whatever.

I’m amazed that people continue to respond to Jetrell’s posts. Every time someone does, a new rabbit hole opens up, and it’s frustration all the way down.

To be clear, I don’t think that Jetrell is a bad guy - in fact he seems like a totally nice person. Just staggeringly illogical.

Definitely on the first part and probably on the second.

I’m an imperfect person, as we all are, and one of my negative traits is my inability to ignore him. However, in my defense, it’s pretty hard to ignore someone who responds to every one of your posts and misunderstands or misrepresents everything you say.

You’re reaching here buddy … we both reside on the same forum, you are a far more prolific poster than I am so your posts are like everywhere, and don’t you feel even the tiniest bit egotistical trying to get folks to actually believe what you just said? The Fonz you’re not, and neither am I, but that really isn’t a rational defense for refusing an olive branch with such indigence.

Are you running for President here or something? Maybe looking to usurp Frink’s singular spot here?

LOL

I can almost never understand what you’re trying to say.

Then why respond?

I just want to know the deal with these allusions and analogies. What’s the deal with The Front? And what about the olive branch?

And what is Frink reaching for? I mean, just some basic reading comp. stuff I want answered.

You should consider becoming a novelist. I think you’d be good at that.

Macron campaign’s e-mails are now out on the Internet, unknown at this point if they were altered by Russian intelligence to give the appearance of impropriety like some of the Clinton campaign e-mails were. Le Pen campaign appears mysteriously immune from hackers. Election in two days.

Le pen is definitely going to win.

Bookmarked for Sunday when you’re wrong.

https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/le-pen-is-just-a-gargantuan-polling-error-behind-macron/

Donald Trump was just a normal polling error behind Hillary Clinton on the eve of the 2016 presidential election. The far-right National Front candidate in France, Marine Le Pen, by contrast, is an enormous, historic polling error behind the centrist En Marche! candidate Emmanuel Macron.

Le Pen is still going to win. France will fall yet again in another electoral upset.

Sure.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/with-europe-on-the-line-polarized-french-voters-choose-between-macron-and-le-pen/2017/05/07/ccf8e5e2-31d9-11e7-9534-00e4656c22aa_story.html

Pollsters thought Hillary was going to win because people concealed their racism when interviewed.

Le Pen actually underperformed her polls.

https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/861281153239724033

Macron headed for a ~31 point win, which will mean polls underestimated him by ~7 pt. A bigger error than Brexit and much bigger than Trump!

What type of food do Star Wars humans eat?
Time

kellyliston2017 said:

I realize this is a crazy question, but in the ESB, when Luke is on the Dagobah System and he meets Yoda for the first time…and doesn’t know he’s Yoda of course…Yoda starts thumbing through Luke’s food box and says “How do you get so big eating food of this kind?”

It’s a frozen space burrito.

Yoda looks at a frozen space burrito.

Um, you do realize that even if she had won, the Republicans would still have control over Congress, right? I’d call that a check on her power.

She’s a centrist neocon. She would have been waging war or paying militants to wage war for her across untold numbers of countries the world over. She would have continued corrupt economic and monetary policies that exacerbate wealth inequality and enrich the wealthy at the expense of the poor. She would have further entrenched the surveillance-police state.

The Republicans–which except for a few issues she’s hardly indistinguishable from–would have loved her. And the hypocritical center-left media would have lavished fete after fete upon her. The praise for her villainy would have been never-ending.

Oh, I see what you did. You forgot that it was Trump you were talking about. Common mistake, I know.
