McInnes without Moynihan? Not interested.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Hello.

[Archduke von Pantsfan]

KRUSCHEV and Kennedy?

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

We will bury you!

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Will she have the original shoe?

[Sevo]

No. It's Russian. It fell apart while he was beating on the desk.

[Vulgar Madman]

Tackle a difficult subject Matt!

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. government-owned mortgage financiers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could send about $179.2 billion in profits to taxpayers over the next 10 years if the terms of their bailout remain intact, the White House budget office said on Monday.

The amount is more than triple the estimated 10-year payments calculated last year in the White House budget proposal, driven by the companies' increased profitability.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have operated under federal conservatorship since 2008, when regulators agreed to inject capital into the companies to keep them afloat.

They received $187.5 billion in taxpayer funds, but they have returned to profitability and by the end of March they will have had paid $202.9 billion in dividends to the U.S. Treasury.

What to do with Fannie/Freddie now that they are spitting out such enormous profits (as I predicted back in 2009).

Which do you hate more? Deficits or Bush socialism?

[Rufus J. Firefly]

tarran gave explicit orders to look away.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Replace Bush with Goldstein and see if these posts still work.

[cryptArchy]

And here I was ready to give a wity retort, but then I remembered the warning many of you have given here to not look it in the eyes

[Palin's Buttplug]

LOOK AWAY! FEAR THE UNKNOWN!

[Francisco d'Anconia]

It wants cake.

[cryptArchy]

Is it like the abyss Nietzsche speaks of in Beyond Good and Evil?

[Sevo]

No, it's just abysmally stupid.

[Palin's Buttplug]

tarran gave explicit orders to look away.

You are an obedient butt-child!

[Dweebston]

What to do with Fannie/Freddie now that they are spitting out such enormous profits

Dissolve them, and prosecute everyone involved.

Next?

[Paul.]

Watch words: "could" "about" "over next 10 years."

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Also Khruscheva needs to take off her shoe and bang it on the table if Kennedy dares to interrupt her.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Probably not the first banging which took place on that table...

is what a vulgar person would say, but not me

[Vulgar Madman]

Guam: the political entity that has clip art on its sorry excuse for a flag.

[Archduke von Pantsfan]

Isle of Man seeks your input.

That looks like a representation of an acrobatic sex act.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Add an extra leg and guess what else it would look like?

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Plus it appears they borrowed it from Sicily

Not sure if it's an improvement.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Sicily is warmer so the legs are bare.

[Sudden]

Italian women's legs are never bare. Bear maybe, but not bare.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Guam has tipped over yet?

[Rufus J. Firefly]

hasn't.

[RannedPall]

What gives you credibility to speak on this? Was your college mascot something awful like an anteater or something?!

[Rufus J. Firefly]

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Anteaters are awesome. I still wear my UCI shirt out in public and the best part of Arrested Development season 4 was seeing all the UCI paraphernalia in the background.

If the Ministry of Truth says it, you'd have to be crazy not to believe.

[Bam!]

Never believe anything until it has been officially denied.

[Winston]

Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colorado), currently my favorite Democrat in the House of Representatives

Well that's better than Scott Shackford calling him "left libertarianish." By that logic Franklin Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson were libertarianish.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Am I the only who thinks 'left libertarian' is oxymoronic.

Whatever is considered 'liberal' is already discounted in libertarian principles I reckon.

No need for the tag.

[Gene]

What about all those tax and spend libertarians?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Prediction: Hoops.

[Fist of Etiquette]

DREAMCATCHERS!

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

I'm beginning suspect Kennedy possesses only a finite number or earrings.

She must spend the rest on booze and pep pills.

[Ted S.]

The number of pairs of earrings is finite, bounded by the number of atoms in the universe.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

[Fist of Etiquette]

Men and men marrying men? Oh, no. That's one man too many.

[BigT]

Men (2+) + Men (2+) + Men (2+) = 6+

So 5 is the right number?

Seems like a sausagefest to me, but the math works out.

HI V gay people? That's pretty ignorant.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Are you positive?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Now that's ignorant.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Hmmm...one-way ratchet federalism. Conservatives get to be federalists and stay away from gay marriage, while their opponents run to the federal courts to impose SSM on the country without opposition.

Sorry, there I go again.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Leave marriage to the churches and to the civil-rights commissions!

[BigT]

Pretty in pink got it right - civil unions for all, and marriage for the believers.

Presumably divorce for all as well.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Fines for bakers.

[Strapping Young Lad]

Divorce for non-believers, and miniature American flags for others!

[SIV]

That pink-clad blonde is way too bossy

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Biebs? Why?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Everyone's a h8r.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Slow news day, I guess. That or this show think Bieber is more important and newsworthy than a missing plane full of Chinamen.

[jesse.in.mb]

full of Chinamen.

They'll make more.

[BigT]

Meanwhile, Ukraine threatens to go nuke again.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Who cares?! Kennedy has a hate boner for Bieber that needs to stroked.

[Byte Me]

I once suggested the solution to the marriage question that the blonde had to some proggie facebook friends and they flipped a shit over it when it should be a less than non-controversial position. They literally argued that the state MUST define marriage and use the term "marriage". Needless to say I was dumbfounded.

[jesse.in.mb]

"If we let the churches define marriage the gays will open churches just so they can say they're married!"

I've pushed the same solution and had the flip side of the "the state needs to define it my way" reaction.

[Byte Me]

Yea, I said that "marriage" should exist as it always has, as a religious institution. I then stated that I believe all couplings outside of church should be called civil unions. That is, if they are going to be state recognized at all. It was this the question of whether or not the state should even define marriage that made their pretty, little, vacant heads explode. It turned into a shitstorm of a debate in which I was ganged up on by 5 people and subsequently de-friended. So much for tolerance...

[jesse.in.mb]

This was several years ago when state after state was passing a gay marriage ban. I pointed out that attitudes were changing and it would protect the religious conception of marriage better to sever the ecclesiastical and state definitions, but the people I talked to thought they were going to win that by putting bans in place before attitudes changed too much.

[Fist of Etiquette]

You know, I don't know that I've ever heard any Bieber song other than that baby baby one. Does he actually make music? I hear about concerns that he's late to from time to time, so apparently he shouts something at an audience.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Bieber is being groomed for the Liberal party of Canada. Trudeau needs a comrade.

[Dances-with-Trolls]

Now that's a chilling thought.

[Tejicano]

I have managed to avoid noticing more than the very minimum amount of information about this Bieber thing with apathy so I intend to continue that strategy. Somebody would have to pay me well to develop any more of an interest.

[RannedPall]

''''ATTENTION ALL SCOTCH DRINKERS''' I recently was introduced to the delicious distilled liquor that is scotch whiskey (Starting with glenlivet 12 year, can't afford that top shelf hooch yet) and I've a question. Do those fancy scotch whiskey glasses really make a difference? Do other glasses work better? Or worse? I'd appreciate the input.

[SweatingGin]

64-oz big gulp cup?

certainly go for at least rocks glasses.

[Max Power]

I like to put all brown liquor into a rocks glass. Mostly because I'm afraid I'll knock over and spill any kind of fancy glass if it's got a stem or some shit. But also, any kind of bulb-type glass concentrates the smell of your drink and if you take too big a sniff it kinda blasts your sinuses out and you can't really taste the whisky anymore. Anyway, that's what the Macallan rep at the tasting told me, and I believe him. He had a Scottish accent.

[BigT]

Those fancy scotch glasses aren't necessary, but rose-colored Google glasses might help.

[The Laconic Marc F Cheney]

Work better at what?

I sure can't feel like a fancy boy unless I drink my whiskey from my fancy whiskey glasses. So they're better at that.

[Bam!]

Political Barbie's head tilting is hypnotic.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Punchable.

[Fist of Etiquette]

They forgot the tape delay button. "Dick" got through.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

According to Mr Carlin, words that have alternative meanings are okay.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Also, that's what she said.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

They are not going to talk about True Detective? Their HBO Go accounts should be working fine now.

[Fist of Etiquette]

NO SPOILERS. I have the whole series on my DVR unwatched.

[Bam!]

The decapitation comes out of nowhere.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

The finale was shocking: Alexandra Daddarrio's character shows up, strips, and explains everything while walking around nude.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

"The finale was shocking: Alexandra Daddarrio's character shows up, strips, and explains everything while walking around nude."

OK, there go the HBO Go servers again.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

OK, I won't mention how Walt shot Rust when Saul distracted him.

[jesse.in.mb]

Are you trying to take Nicole's tiara?*

I still have to watch the finale.

*I've got two seasons of Walking Dead, Game of Thrones and whatever's available of Vikings queued up to watch and haven't gotten to it, so it's not like I can actually judge.

[Ted S.]

The Japanese attack on December 7.

(Damn; I just gave away the climax to From Here to Eternity.)

[Wasteland Wanderer]

Also the main plot to "Tora! Tora! Tora!" and the McGuffin in a movie about a love-triangle called "Pearl Harbor".

[Rufus J. Firefly]

I'm surprised the discussion was limited.

I was a tad disappointed with the finale but cadence of Rust following the killer was pretty good.

I like how they flushed out the pain he had for his daughter.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

Rufus, I was very disappointed after watching, but after reading this review I re-evaluated and give it a moderate thumbs up.

http://popwatch.ew.com/2014/03.....py-ending/

[Rufus J. Firefly]

****FOE DO NOT READ*****

Very long article. Will read it later.

I shouldn't say 'disappointed' as I'm not sure what I was looking for. I have to admit following Rust was nerve racking because you didn't want to see him die.

When he was stabbed I thought maybe he wanted to die because of the loss of his kid. However, I truly enjoyed the shot at redemption he was given.

Plus, his relationship with Marty was interesting. They played off each other well. In the end, they weren't just true detectives but partners too.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

What I really liked was that his near-death experience wasn't supernatural at all. It was existential and totally in keeping with the show's theme about the repetitive aspects of time.

That last speech was wrenching but somehow it managed to end, after all that, on a positive note. Maybe he can actually be a human being now that he realizes it's not all bad when you die.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

Grand Moff, what, in your opinion, was up with that 'cosmic swirl' thing in the catacombs?

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

I figure every hallucination Cohle sees is the result of brain damage from his sustained drug usage while undercover.

Beyond that, 'Carcosa' is supposed to be located elsewhere in the universe, like another planet or even another reality. So I guess it symbolizes Cohle staring down something incomprehensible.

[jesse.in.mb]

Does anybody temporarily get turned into a marble statue?

Otherwise I might be wasting my time reading The King in Yellow.

[Agammamon]

Don't read 'The King in Yellow' - you'll go insane.

[jesse.in.mb]

you'll go insane

Hehehe, go? That ship has long sailed under a sky full of black stars.

Anyway we can officially spoil the shit out of True Detectives now.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

I thought the snuff film video tape of the cult doing unspeakable things to children was the equivalent of the 'The King in Yellow'.

It drove Marty crazy with a desire crack the case and it got that corpulent sheriff to cooperate willingly.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

Sounds reasonable to me, and I think your last sentence particularly well put.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

GMSM, well, he did describe seeing his daughter. Is this not kinda 'supernatural?'

And yes, the fact they smiled at the end suggests they may finally have found peace. Even Marty crying after seeing his family was also gave him some happiness and peace of mind.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

GMSM, well, he did describe seeing his daughter. Is this not kinda 'supernatural?'

Depends on your perspective. Marty is a Christian so I imagine if he had the same experienced he'd call it God.

But Rust is an existentialist that knows there are unexplained phenomena associated with death but that they are possibly explained scientifically like with that flat-circle theory.

Like he said about the criminals he interrogates, everyone seeks catharsis. Marty realized what an asshole he had been to such a good woman and his daughters and felt a mixture of shame and joy when he saw them. That's why he was crying.

Rust felt a sense of relief that a sense of love persists in the last moments of a person. It removes the despair associated with living and so I think his tears were ultimately tears of joy.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Marty had an epiphany. So it's good. He probably won't get them back but at least they're likely to be back in their lives.

Existentialism always struck me as superficial (I read Camus in high school and thought L'etranger was nothing but an asshole) so I'd like to think what you accurately described about Rusty points to something deeper.

[Lady Bertrum]

In both Marty's scene with his family and then Rust's last monologue we get to see real character evolution/maturity minus any sentimentality.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

The reason I don't want to get my expectations too high for season 2 is because the astounding acting from McConaughey and Harrelson was essential to the success of this show.

They'll need to cast next season extremely well for it to work again.

[Lady Bertrum]

Yeah. They were exceptional but the whole production was top shelf.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Yes. This is true.

Will be very hard to top these two.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Yeah I said this the other day. They'll need to get Pacino and De Niro.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

I was, and still am, disappointed by what I thought were some rather big feints in certain directions that ended up not only unresolved, but not even addressed.

[Lady Bertrum]

You're too fixated on the mystery plot.

The name of the show is True Detective. The truth they find goes beyond the very creepy and engaging crime.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Honestly, it isn't the show's fault if people on the internet read way too much into the motifs and expected more.

The murder and the identify of the killer was always intended to be a McGuffin for our exploration of the these two lead characters.

I thought the ending was perfect.

[Bo Cara Esq.]

I agree on your first point, but they could have at least let us know more about the Little Man From Another Place and when Dale is going to get out of the Black Lodge.

[Rufus J. Firefly]

Yeah, wasn't there a bigger conspiracy?

[Lady Bertrum]

I thought the ending was perfect.

I just finished it. It was pretty terrific. Super suspenseful but we still get fully developed characters and full exposition. Best mini-series ever.

[jesse.in.mb]

Oh come on people. I'm holding off on the finale to watch Independents.

[Lady Bertrum]

Sorry, Jesse. I'm trying to be vague. But the very last scene is wonderful.

[jesse.in.mb]

Now I have impossibly high expectations!

Reasonable needs a function to replace all talk of TV shows with RED WEDDING!!!11!!1

[Lady Bertrum]

You don't even want to know what happens to Joffrey.

[jesse.in.mb]

It had better eventually be scaphism, resurrection with super sensitivity to pain, and being slowly lowered into a giant Cuisinart.

[Lady Bertrum]

Holy-moly, that's awful.

[jesse.in.mb]

My go-to punishment execution isn't as bad as Heroic Mulatto's preferred one.

[Lady Bertrum]

I don't even....okay, tell me. ...

[Heroic Mulatto]

Well, In a sane and just world he would be placed within a cauldron of bronze that was shaped like a bull. After having been sealed inside, a fire would be lit underneath the bull. As he was slowly roasted to death, his throes of agony would resonate out through the bull as loud bellowing. This sound would be accompanied by a band outside playing fifes and beating drums and the townsfolk danced around the bronze bull.

[Swiss Servator, alles klar?]

Fun fact about Guam: it has no motto

"South Carolina has two official mottos, both of which are in Latin.[2] Kentucky and North Dakota also have two mottos, one in Latin and the other in English.[3] All other states and territories have only one motto, except Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, which do not have any mottos."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L.....ory_mottos

And looking at some of those states mottos, I have to think there are no American Atheist or Americans United for Separation of Church and State chapters in them, because they seem like prime First Amendment suits waiting to happen.

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

Yeah, he seems way too reasonable. I'll bet he's soft on gun issues too so he's a traitor to the left.

And that's not meant as an insult, Mr. Ambassador, I mean, you take your average Russkie, we all know how much guts he's got. Hell, look at all them them Nazis killed off and they still wouldn't quit."

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

"Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed. But I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops. Uh, depending on the breaks."

The plane fell off radar - isn't the radar track recorded? It seems that a sudden disappearance would be able to trace better.

I usually enjoy Gavin on Red Eye. Where did THAT guy go? And who replaced him with this ignorant a-hole?

[BigT]

Really? Inbreeding is causing muslim terrorism. Rly??

This guy is wacko. Muslims get angry, like anyone. But their culture and religion allow them/encourage them to strike out at the infidels. Not so much with Jews, Xtians, Shintos, etc.

[Bam!]

He's a hipster. What did you expect?

[PapayaSF]

I don't see the causation with terrorism, but there *is* a lot of cousin-marriage in the Arab world.

[Agammamon]

There's a lot of cousin marriage in West Virginia - don't see them jihading away.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Fuck, he's Murikin.

The inbreeding thing? this guy's got the evidence!!!

Wow.

[Fist of Etiquette]

Apparently Foster never saw The X-Files episode "Home".

[The Laconic Marc F Cheney]

I will assume that's the one with all the inbreeding.

That mom was a hot piece of ass, though, so you can't really blame the sons.

I liked that the episode was set in my neck of the woods. Fox banned it for a while from repeats.

So what was the deal with only having one female astronaut? Were they all supposed to breed with her?

[Francisco d'Anconia]

The original had three guys.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Oops, you're right. She died in the crash or something right?

[Grand Moff Serious Man]

I think she died when her hyper-sleep thingy malfunctioned during the flight.

Taylor explicitly tells Nova that she was supposed to be their Eve and would repopulate this world with their "eager help".

Salon writer goes to orgy. Writes this dozy of a paragraph:

After my Abramovi? stunt my body felt like jelly, sumptuous and tired; I moved to the periphery of the room, where my company was dominated by the few straight men of the place, all in boxers, hugging the wall like they wished to break out of orbit. If you pen an invitation, however selective, to come to a place and sleep with people, straight men will come. This is no question. But there was no doubt that the party was by and mostly catered to queer and queerly sex-positive folk like me, who rolled about with abandon. One of the straight boys asked, haltingly, if he could stroke my hips. I looked at his soft, uneasy face, and said no. A thing no one tells you about orgies is that you can and should say no.

He was confused and upset: with hetero whiteness comes entitlement. Straight men are always surprised that you do not want to sleep with them. Though an orgy may seem like a free-for-all, all tangled limbs and flesh slapping together, in reality it proves to be more like a place in which ordinary dampers on the act of boning are simply lifted.

...time's passing seems reconfigured. Was I being fingered for a few minutes, or forever? Even so, even if an eternity had passed and I was at the end of time and space and the heat death of the universe hinged upon it, I still wouldn't want to sleep with that guy.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

queerly sex-positive

Huh?

[Strapping Young Lad]

Jesus christ, first comment

White people should honestly be euthanized. Don't get me wrong, there are white people who are on our side, but the majority are just like the guy in this article: prissy, entitled, spoiled, spoonfed, completely oblivious to the discomfort they cause others. I don't literally think they should be wiped off the planet, but then again. You should have asked him to leave if he was really acting huffy about your rejection.

[Notorious G.K.C.]

Kill the white people, but buy my record first!

Richard Branson tells climate deniers to 'get out of the way'

[Francisco d'Anconia]

The NCPPR stated there is an 'absence of compelling data' on climate change. If 97% of climate scientists agreeing that climate-warming trends over the past century are due to human activities isn't compelling data, I don't know what is," Branson said, referring to a survey last year of thousands of peer-reviewed papers in scientific journals that found 97.1% agreed climate change is man-made.

I don't think he quite understands the definition of data.

[Dances-with-Trolls]

Or scientist for that matter.

[Some call me Tim?]

Especially when you take not of the way that 97% number was constructed.

[Francisco d'Anconia]

97% of the 38% who had formed an opinion.

Complete fucking garbage.

[Some call me Tim?]

It's even worse, because it's 97% that said humans were *a* factor, not necessarily the *primary* one.

[Tejicano]

I might be tempted to listen when his fleet of aircraft have been converted to run on the horseshit spewed by thought-challenged celebrities. Until then he's not even amusing.

[General Butt Naked]

Another asshole that flits around the world in a private jet scolding the plebs on their high carbon output lifestyle.

Fuck a duck.

This is why I can't take the radical left seriously, they get worked up about the most *trivial* shit.

Your support is crucial; there is a chance that the board of trustees sign a document that would allow to drop COMMUNITY out of Seattle Central Community College name. We won't let this happen. We need as many people together as possible. This is so important. This is more than one word. If they sign this document the word COMMUNITY will be gone, and with it will start the beginning of the privatization of our school and our education.

For this reason we need your support to stand up together to keep the word COMMUNITY. This meeting will be part of our college history; it will tell our coming generations the history of some students, staff, faculty and members of the community who got together to fight against injustice.

[Some call me Tim?]

Background
The Board of Trustees (the executive administration) of Seattle Community Colleges is planning to drop the word "community" out of the school name. The Board of Trustees is made up of five people: Jorge Carrasco, Albert Shen, Courtney Gregoire, Carmen Gayton and Steven Hill. These people are the ones who will decide for all students but students are the ones who pay tuition. This tuition is the money that will be used to pay for their salaries and for maintaining our college. They not only will make a decision for the students. Also, they will decide in name of the staff and faculty. Staff and faculty are the people who help and take care of students at our COMMUNITY colleges. They are teachers, counselors, cooks, security guards, secretaries, motivators and organizers; these people: students, staff and faculty are the ones who should vote and decided on something as critical as taking COMMUNITY out of our school name.
There many economic interests on getting rid of the word COMMUNITY and sadly these interests are not going to benefit the COMMUNITY which the college serves. The members of the Board of Trustees are owners of private businesses and some of them are related with public businesses as well.

Wow, Kennedy is unbearable in the after show. Painful.
