What is idiotic, is that she claims to be gravely concerned about Global Warming, but refuses to come out against fracking (she actually promoted it, as Secretary of State), when it greatly contributes to the release of methane, which, as I'm sure you know, is a far more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide.

There was a twitter commentary not too long ago that basically said she doesn't do this because she's thinking about democratic officials in areas where fracking is viewed positively and doesn't want to ruin their chances or some such.
It's easy to be ideologically pure and playing politics is never going to look good, but it is what it is.
We should have known Daniel was a robot. No human being could possibly bear to use the PS3 browser
In fairness to him, last time I asked him about this he said he wrote his own wrappers for it so that it could do normal browser stuff.
Like, Daniel is wrong about everything but let no one say he's not legit.
What the fuck. Okay, really don't care much for Bernie at this point. He and his entire campaign are tone deaf and just don't get it.
I don't recall that. Any links? I do remember the smears Breitbart committed against Shaun last year, over "lying" about his race, though.

She's also said that she wants fracking to die a natural death instead of killing it and bringing down local economies with it... I think that's a sensible position to take.

That's...actually kind of impressive in a bizarre way. And it makes me think he might actually believe the stuff he posts.

Person maced was a 15 year old girl after someone grabbed her chest and she pushed them, least that's what I see going around. Looks like good times for all women at Trump rallies. Oh found a video, damn they got her entire face jesus.

That doesn't seem rational. If it can be done safely with minimised or negligible negative impacts then I don't see why you'd see it die any death.
The opposition to fracking, whilst there are perfectly good reasons for concern and why it should be carefully regulated, strikes me as one of those issues where people decide they're against it and then go looking for evidence rather than the other way round.
Although I guess that applies to most things.

And I had sincerely been meaning to compliment you on the quality of your recent posts
.Sure (on CH4), but as I understand it, they can't, or are not willing to (due to added expense), guarantee zero leakage from fracking wells, and the integrity of said wells is only around 80%, and where you have leakage, you can contaminate groundwater and / or release methane (natural gas).

This is just an opinion of a lily white outsider but I find it fascinating that many young BLM activists seem to not "get" that a whole lot of black people supported the Crime Bill*, and a whole lot of black people (specifically older black people) still really like the Clintons. You can talk all you want about statistics and incarceration but I think Clinton's dominance of the black vote really shows that she is being accepted by that community. My general view is that a lot of people are good at figuring out who is on their side and who isn't. Many forget but Bill Clinton came into office with a rather diverse cabinet, he went out his way to directly speak with the black community, and in general at the time was more friendly with black people than any modern candidate I can think of (maybe since RFK?).
*Not suggesting black people supporting the bill means it was justified. I'm arguing that many black people (including politicians) from crime ridden neighborhoods thought it was a good idea, not just the Clintons. It turned out to be a bad idea.

It never got checked. People should go back to the beginning to see how much shit has changed.

I never thought I'd say this but PoliGAF has turned into a Clinton echo chamber. I stopped talking about it because we already won. In fact I'm pretty much done with democratic politics until the next cycle. I just want more Cruz sex scandal stuff!

He kinda sucks after he came for crissles and deray for meeting with politicians and appearing in the media.
You ain't see nothing yet. I hope you are all ready, for soon it shall begin. The Great Circlejerk of our time approaches. Months upon months of Poligaffers vigorously pleasuring each other with tales of Hillary's future conquests. It shall be glorious.

I think someone should make microbeads a campaign issue and take on Big Facewash.
My congresswoman, QUEEN Marcia Fudge, endorsed the obvious choice. She is always right.
Oh, and she also endorsed Somebody Clinton for something too.
God, I hate the dab. I swear it's a trap. It's a "dance move" designed by people who can dance to make people who can't dance look even more stupid so all the people who can dance snicker at you. Put your face into your elbow and cough!

Seeing Susan Sarandon in Bull Durham was one of the early childhood indicators that I was a straight dude. Can't hate on her just on that note even if, woof on that "don't know if I can vote for Hillary" tip.
On another note, how is Cruz anywhere near Trump in CA in polling? Where is Cruz's likely voter for this primary? It would be mostly north of Sacramento in the theoretical state of Jefferson, right? I would assume Orange County Republicans would be Trump fans (for his immigration stance) or Kasich (just an informal survey of OC Pubbers I know who were self-proclaimed moderates). I am surprised that voters from Jefferson + conservative border-town voters who aren't voting Trump are enough to get him over 30% there.
Of course, I don't live there, so hopefully a CA voter will chime in here. I've wondered about this since the most recent polls showed him right behind Trump.

This is mostly because the race is over.
There's a lot to talk about on the Republican side, but for the Dems, barring a catastrophic shift this thing is called. Bernie's campaign is like a freshwater fish that somebody accidentally put in a salt water tank. Sure, it's flopping around now, but it'll be dead soon.
I'd love it if Bernie used the rest of this primary season to educate the American people on his socialist ideals and actually nurture the progressive wing of the Democratic party; but his campaign is so me-focused and so intent on going down without a shred of dignity, that if we're going to talk about him all there is to really discuss is the latest stupid thing Bernie, his wife, or the people leading his campaign have said.
Oh, and Susan Sarandon, who seems to be in a foot eating contest with Killer Mike.
Yeah, definitely have read about the work they've put into earning the respect and trust from communities. That's not to say there aren't valid criticisms of Hillary, because there are, nor do I claim to know and experience what many black people go through. I'm latina, trans, undocumented so I do understand from the perspective of being treated and seen as a lesser human being. But indeed, each individual is free to form their own thoughts on each candidate, just don't try to equate one (Hillary) with the likes of Trump and Cruz in a misguided perception that everybody outside of their prefered candidate doesn't care about minorities. I mean Hillary didn't and couldn't even vote for the crime bill. Bernie did.
Reading about this... going to see what's up.
Seems inconclusive. Don't know honestly. From reading their other articles I've always assumed they were.
What is she saying?
