    Late 70s to early 90s they made some fucking amazing products. It's the reason they got hammered so hard for all their mistakes since because a lot of us remember them very fondly.

    It's hard these days for people who think being an asshole is an essential part of their being

    Incorrect. In the US, our right to be an asshole is protected by the Constitution. Unlike other countries, we don't need some cobbled together justification to be dicks to other people, we embedded it into our cultural DNA. That's true freedom.

    Nice fucking copout. Not to mention hilarious, beacause if that's your be-all and end-all, your reason to sneer at the sheep, it's weak fucking beer. Attend a PTA meeting sometime.

    LOL, it's inertia. Not fucking rocket science. I've never made a secret of that.

    Are you not getting tired of this one-sided relationship we have? You're going to have to open up sometime. Come on hero, there's still some life left in ya.

    I hate poorly though out/ lazily explained conspiracy theories. If you're going to talk shit, at least put a little effort in.

    If you want style

    Shit, I can barely get a grammatically correct sentence outta you, and you're worried about your style! Again, this explains a lot.

    Well, since I'm not trying to "evade" anything,

    Congrats on being a failure even when you're not trying. That's impressive.

    And maybe you should take your own advice and "Get over yourself". The sneer only makes you look grumpy.

    What part of "newb to the NATIONAL political stage" do you not comprehend? I don't give a shit how long Bernie's been a politician. If John Q public doesn't know who he is until he's won a couple of primary states, he's a newb at the national stage. This is not controversial, or up for extended analogies and nitpicks. It is what is is and you trying to twist your own pointless parsing as a sign of my intransigence is fucking pathetic on your part.

    Fucking tired of you amateur analysts who don't know shit about politics. Now, get off my fucking lawn.

    The way you've turned evasion into an art form, you should consider your own political career.

    Then again, you can't turn a phrase for shit, so it's going to be a bit of a slog for you.

  16. So regulatory capture isn't a thing then? I mean, if isn't, then fine. If it is, you're blaming the victim, not the rapist.

    Eh, mostly ceremonial at this point

    Just ignore the briefcase with the nuclear launch codes.

    Surely it was all an accident.

    I just figured something out. When you first read the aphorism 'Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity' you balled up your little fists, got very angry, and whispered to yourself "No, that's wrong."

    I'm not sure what you're using for the qualification of "newb"

    I said newb at the national level. 95% of the country had never heard of him until last year, whereas Clinton, Trump and many others were well know for years or decades.

    so it makes it impossible to really have a meaningful dialogue at this point.

    Oh get over yourself.

    Nope. That reading comprehension is a bitch, huh?. What I'm saying is if one of your major attack lines on a candidate is something all major candidates have done for decades, you've run out of ideas.

    I mean sure, if Reince Priebus came out tomorrow and said "We've learned the error of our ways, propping up dictators like Pinochet and the House of Saud does not fit with the vision of today's GOP and I have instructed all GOP party members to follow our new humanitarian guidelines on accepting foreign cash." and made them stick to it, then you could slap Clinton silly and get nothing but cheers.
