As for the misbehavior of DOJ regarding AP... can anyone point concretely to a law that they broke?

They appear to have violated some of their administrative 'principles', though the vast majority...

Why are you so obsessed with American politics, anyway? It's pretty fuckin' weird.

That has a ring of accuracy to it. Dude isn't much of a people person, by most accounts. That's fine for a judge, not so great for an executive.

Of course, I suspect Congress constantly...

You do know that there's credible evidence to suggest that European-grade "whiteness" emerged with agrarianism, right?

Well, obviously not, but whatevs. There is.

FFS.

Yes, ecj, Simma, me, and other progressives are just like Idi Amin.
Just like you're exactly like Torquemada.

Is your point that racial terms tend to correlate with skin color? What a useful system for categorizing individuals!

Yes. But consider: Modern Africans are more genetic diversity than the rest of the world's native populations. All the various ethnic groups of Europe and the middle east are more genetically...

I assure you that they are real. Clayton is a lot of things, but a bullshit artist isn't one of them.
There may or may not be alteration to the chair in question, but the hitachi is quite...

He doesn't have a problem with cajuns calling themselves coon asses. Just other people.

Best post in thread.

Really, really interesting guy. I've posted his work on here a couple of times.

JM, I think you guys would get along...
