But they already have that "in house journal" ... it's called "toilet paper"

Even worse. He went to Vanderbilt and UVa, not quite Ivy League before Oxford but people like him remind me of Kim Jong-Il. State department thought "he's Western educated--maybe he won't be autocratic" then he executes lieutenants with anti-aircraft batteries. Culture doesn't really rub off.

If he's not careful, Putin is going to eat him

Based on yesterday I'm sure part of it will include the US occupying the Donbas region, leveling it and building "something beautiful" there... at least they led with trade wars and Gaza so we all understand the current White House is even more batshit crazy and untrustworthy compared to 2016

True, especially if their impulse is to further concentrate that wealth but to focus on someone they feel they know. It's why Putin's true net worth is around $200 billion

Are you happy, then? The real reason for having guns is to overthrow elections they don't like, in case that wasn't readily obvious. Yes, they're not effective but it's the same "logic" a-holes use when they "need to feel safer"

I honestly wish Kennedy would have stayed with his chainsaw cannibal family or whatever bayou he came from instead of coming to Washington, polluting the airwaves and besmirching what was left of an honorable role. The same people who complain about Congress are the ones who installed them in power

It is always fascinating to me that "populism" entails choosing an autocratic leader from the "elite" and following them unquestioningly and at the expense of everyone's collective interests. Almost as if we're making a pendulum swing back to peasantry and the divine right of kings.

which is not to say there aren't many who have mastered the fine art of being un-self consciously creepy.

So suddenly he's surprised to run a third-world country that has impoverished its oil wealth to build a useless and broken down war machine?

He will quickly, and his people won't care at all

What a weird assertion. So you actually nominate convicted felons with full knowledge and enjoyment of the fact? Dork.

Portland Timbers, Providence Park is an MLS soccer stadium, not NFL.

Portland Timbers in the US, Major League Soccer team, not the NFL

I've always wondered how they became named "the right" whenever it happened. For simple people who see a hat and say "great" I get the impression they also thing being "right wing" means being "correct"... bad semantics.

so he shares our commitment to removing Putin. It's about time.

Yep and most of America will be cheering against them every year. Worse than Yankees in their heyday

Baseball is getting more and more boring. I'll take the NBA anyday where the best teams can still be in places like OK City or Cleveland. We get to look forward to LA vs. NY championships every year

I think we often err in thinking that always evolution=progress. The GOP seems to be preparing for our troglodyte future after climate change erodes our available landmass and crop yields, and we have to eat each other in a millennia or two. They're just gearing down for it.
