I think a little bush should have been peeking out the top, or a little scrote pinched between the thigh and hammock.
Mar 14 give me pom commented on How Does a Megachurch Pastor Treat Depression?.
This, Dan, is why I love you.
Mar 6 give me pom commented on Dear Nerds: Don't Do Blackface.
Yeah, I disagree. It should not be a big deal. It has an unfortunate history. But lets get over ourselves.

Every time somebody bitches about MacFarlane, I remember his performance a little bit more fondly.
Feb 25 give me pom commented on Michelle Malkin Hits Rock Bottom.
Why did you post this? I have now added a view to that stupid video, and it was not even terrible enough to entertain me.

The sweet irony of having SNU advertising it's MBA healthcare program at the top of this page (mobile app). "100% online or on campus"

(4 Semesters) Total Program Cost
40

$26,640.00**

Sounds like a steal!

What is experimental sex and where can I get me some?
Aug 27, 2012 give me pom commented on Chris Matthews Rips Reince Priebus on Race Cards, Dog Whistles, Birth Certificates.
This is great. While I normally despise Chris Matthews, he did well on this day. It is strange how passionate debate was greeted with extreme awkwardness by all the other journalists and guests on that show.

The right remembers very fondly their William Buckley who debated with similar passion - I recall seeing him tell somebody to shut up before he punches the guy in the face. Now we're all ninnies who can't take an impassioned argument.
Aug 25, 2012 give me pom commented on Romney Is Creepily Obtaining Large Amounts of Your Data.
Just because an article happens to include the words "Bain Capital" does not require it to be ominously bold-typed. I cannot fathom how a mutual business marketing relationship has anything to do with this article (that goes for the author of the quote as well.)

But Constant, you just hammer home your partisan hackiness with this. You waste your talent.
Aug 16, 2012 give me pom commented on Romney Loves Ryan.
I think the knee-jerk dismissal of the Medicare voucher plan is a little bit disingenuous to the political process. Whilst I agree that it is not the best plan, it is marginally better than the current course, whereby Medicare slowly bleeds the country to death.

Medicare funds too many things, and has too few limitations on what it will provide. It offers extraordinarily expensive medical resources to people who have lived long full lives and who are ready to die. All people cannot be kept alive at all costs for as long as possible.

We should be bouncing off the voucher plan to say, yes, this needs to be reformed, but let me explain to you why this alternative is much better than your voucher system. Of course many of these reforms are already occuring through the ACA, but there are things we still have not gotten yet. Just like with more stimulus, we should not assume that because we passed one bill, we now just have to be on the defensive for a few decades.

Basically, lets not commit the same intellectual mistake that conservatives always do, which is respond only with fear and anger, and actually present a counter argument and a plan.
