Some tailor should really start advertising his "Trump special" where he will adjust your pants for "added ballroom". To be fair, Trump is the first republican POTUS since the 80s that even *has* balls, so it's no wonder none of the rest weren't missing a ballroom.

The trick is that the 60 vote override for a filibuster is just a senate procedural rule. It's not a law or a constitutional requirement. So, it takes 60 votes to shut down a filibuster, but it only takes 50 votes to change a procedural rule. The whole thing is basically a gentleman's...

The real problem with these government shut downs is they never shut down enough, and it's always temporary.

If they ever cracked open a history book, they wouldn't be leftists.

For *everyone*.

Ahh, but it's someone *else's* server. That's what makes it the cloud :)

If they're lucky they'll erupt. The alternative is even worse for them.

I really need to make my way north for this in the spring... Big Sandy Shoot – Largest Machine-Gun Shoot In The World Big Sandy Shoot – Largest Machine-Gun Shoot In The World

"The cloud" is just a fancy way of saying "someone else's computer".

The problem there is that there is no way to have vacuum and vapor permeable at the same time. It would be like wearing bubble wrap, you would sweat, then die.

Eh, widespread adoption of electric cars is probably using more power than datacenters.

Maybe Marriage is an inherently religious institution and Government has no business being involved at all. Why should it have any affect on your rights or privileges at all ? Also, FWIW, any sort of nutritional benefits should be along the lines of "here's your box of government cheese...

And 200 years ago many "employers" exercised the simple expedient of owning their employees outright. That really simplified a lot of stuff. Doesn't mean it was right.

For minor children the school is acting as their parent at the time they are there, and that gives them parental powers that obviously exceed normal government powers. But this guy was 18. Being a parent of an adult *doesn't* give you extra authority over them the same way it does over a...

Word salad is a very effective way of convincing the ignorant that you are smart. When cornered by a request for clarification or actual evidence, they usually resort to feigned outrage that you would dare question their dogma.

I have armed security at every dinner I attend.

And the operatives aren't fired for the misconduct. They're fired because they're not good enough at it to not get caught. Plus, they're far less useful now that they are publicly exposed.

I bet they don't even do that twice. They're prosecuting a judge that tried that. She thought the robes would protect her, but they're not a get out of jail free card.

The parts that would burn are the parts we're better off without.

Oh, we have suitable alternatives, but we would absolutely miss having fresh. Oh, and I looked it up. They say those miniature cows are good for 2 gallons of milk a day. That just seems like a ton from something the size of a great dane.

We could not leave our property for 3 weeks and the only thing we'd be missing would be fresh milk and cream for coffee. Wonder how much milk you can get from one of those miniature highland cows. I don't need 100lbs a day from a full size one....

The democrats have themselves convinced that criminals aren't responsible for their anti-social behavior. It's an article of faith for them. That's why it's practically a mantra for them that poverty causes crime. But my experience is different. I think you get just as many miscreants in the...

School lunches should be tasty, nutritious, and dirt cheap. They were all three when I was a kid. And they shouldn't be free, but I think there should be some work available at the school for any kid that needs lunch money. Maybe spend an hour a week cleaning bathrooms or helping in the...

Nah, someone would pay way below market value for the stuff, and some people would make a job out of collecting it like morons. Basically how "professional shoplifters" operate now.
