Dear Lord! There’s another Republican debate tonight? From Detroit?! The Fox Theater?! On Fox News?!
/checks cable package; relieved Fox News isn’t listed
//wishes Robocop was real
///ends up on FBI watch list
It might be fun to watch Megyn Kelly grind Trump’s balls, if all those other chucklefucks weren’t going to trip on each other trying to do it instead. It’ll probably end up making Trump look better. At least Carson’s not there. If there was any justice in the world, Matt Millen would be the moderator and just spend the entire two hours asking questions about sandwiches and NCAA eligibility.
Forgive the Canadian obsession with US politics, but the presidential campaign matters almost as much to us. As Justin’s dad once said:
Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt.
Because the debate’s in Detroit – the Assembly Line of Miserableness – I’ve tried to line up which candidate matches a Lions QB from years past. Opinions may vary:
- Jeb!: Scott Mitchell – Mama’s boy; never really wanted the job, just the money. Got fat & went home.
- Ben Carson: Rodney Peete – considered strong when drafted, but faltered quickly under the lights.
- John Kasich: Eric Hipple – a good & decent man surrounded by awful teammates.
- Marco Rubio: Dan Orlovsky – who else can you picture running out of the end zone?
- Ted Cruz: Joey Harrington – always optimistic in the face of abject failure; looks good on paper.
- Trump: comes out in Matt Stafford, but rips off jersey on stage to reveal a Bobby Layne
- “What’s Stafford done? Nothing! He’s so bad he made Megatron retire. I don’t wear garbage. Bobby Layne – that guy was a winner. I only wear winners!”
Considering the Republican convention is being held in the Factory of Sadness July 18-21, I’m sure there will be thinkpieces comparing the Browns organization and whatever Republican civil war has erupted by then. I can already see Jimmy Haslam yee-hawing his way to the stage. Our only true salvation at that time will be meteor.

Finally, on today’s date in 1931, “The Star Spangled Banner” was adopted as the US national anthem & signed into law by Herbert Hoover. To commemorate this fact, it’s gotta be Whitney:
That’s the good stuff. INTO THE NIGHT, MY PRETTIES!

anyone staying up to watch this golden state warriors vs Thunder game?
Cause its close.
“Close” being relative.
Curry has gone cold this 2nd half. Livingston is playing a solid game.
Thunder have made many mistakes and now Warriors have a 6 pt lead with 4 minutes and change left to go in the game.
Can I just say something here?
FAZED. It’s fucking FAZED. Not “phased”. GODDAMNIT WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?
/not you guys. The rest of the internet.
It’s also “rein in,” not “reign in.”
Jackasses.
I am planning on a phased implementation of beers in me as to become fazed.

Okay. Real talk. I know this woman from school who’s a year behind me (Graduates in May). So how do I ask out someone who’s busier than me and better than me and already has a job lined up unlike my dumb ass.
Looks like a Mailbag question to me.
I still don’t know how I coerced wifey to spend time with me. My best guess is Stockholm syndrome.
Fuck it
Just do it and don’t give a shit if she says no. You’ll kick yourself forever for not having tried.
Yeah, that’s solid advice.

However, you just described the EXACT reason I don’t post at Bring Back Matt. That site loathes me more than Cruz.

Kasich might be a non-violent guy, but, he clearly wants to stab O’Reilly in the eyes with a pen right now.
The debate is STILL going on?!?
Breaking News: Amtrak safely delivers man from DC to NYC ontime. Will he survive the shock?
Should I put that on the DFO scroller?
Absolutely. Not scroll worthy: We arrived as a Who concert was getting out. Why didn’t someone tell me so I could have blown off work to go to NYC early and scream about how they can’t replace Keith Moon?
Was the quiet car quiet? Was the coffee good? These are important questions! Readers need to know!
Was the coffee black, bitter, and fair trade, like his women?
I’ve always had pretty good luck with Amtrak.
The trick is to travel during off-hours, as you have done.

That jesus wouldn’t be proud of? Do you know what modern conservatives believe, you robotic fuck?
Every REEL MURICKAN knows Jesus was a white man who carried an AR-15 with him at all times, and preached about the dangers of socialism, that tax breaks benefit everyone, and black people commit voter fraud everywhere.
He also rode dinosaurs!

And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
— Mark 12:28-31
Yeah, but what does Jesus know? That was almost 2000 years ago. Besides, He’s a convicted felon.
Rape and slavery are cool tho.
Jesus was never convicted of any crime by the Roman state.
Jesus was tried by the Sanhedrin for blasphemy, found guilty, sentenced to death and turned over to Pilate’s court for dispensation of the sentence.
And Mark stole that shit from our book.
More like he completely misinterpreted your book and made a bunch of shit up about what it says.

The sad thing is that Donald Trump haters will think he lost this debate and Donald Trump lovers will think he love this debate.
We might need to reexamine the 15th and 24th Amendments and have a serious discussion about taking an IQ Test before earning the right to vote.
Does Ted Cruz know there are more than ten Amendments?
Shut up, communist!
Nah, I think he only knows of I, II and IX and X.
Nah. We just need to kill all the billionaires.
15th Amendment
The last of the Reconstruction Amendments, the 15th Amendment was designed to close the last loophole in the establishment of civil rights for newly-freed black slaves. It ensured that a person’s race, color, or prior history as a slave could not be used to bar that person from voting. Though a noble idea, it had little practical effect for quite some time, as the Southern states found myriad ways to intimidate blacks to keep them from voting. The Congress passed the amendment on February 26, 1869, and it was ratified on February 3, 1870 (342 days).
Though ratification of the 15th Amendment was not a requirement for readmittance of the Confederate states to the Congress, one of the provisions of the Reconstruction Acts required that the states include a provision in their new constitutions that included a near-copy of the text of the 15th. All of the CSA states except Tennessee, which was immune from the Reconstruction Acts, eventually ratified the 15th Amendment
24th Amendment
One of the last legal vestiges of segregation was the effort to keep the black population from participating in the vote. With most methods for keeping the black vote to a minimum declared unconstitutional, several Southern states found an answer — the poll tax. The poll tax has a long history, and was often used in Europe to raise funds. With a poll tax, in order to vote, a certain tax must be paid. The tax is the same for all, which allowed the generally more affluent white population access to the polls with a minimum of pain, while the generally poorer black population would have trouble justifying trading food on the table for a vote in the ballot box. Worse, different kinds of poll taxes were implemented, some accumulating even if no attempt was made to vote, meaning increasingly higher back-taxes to be paid to gain the vote.
In 1939, Congress began to try to get rid of the poll tax, but history was not behind them. After all, in colonial times and when the Constitution first came into effect, land ownership was often a requirement for suffrage. Though only five states still had a poll tax by the time the amendment passed Congress, Supreme Court rulings made it doubtful that mere legislation would eliminate the tax altogether. Proposed by Congress on August 27, 1962, the 24th Amendment was ratified within a year and a half, on January 23, 1964 (514 days).

If I was on the debate stage:
Moderator: Will you still support Donald Trump as the Republican Nominee?
(takes a shot of liquor)
Redshirt: Yes, I said I would.
Moderator: How did you get liquor up here.
Redshirt: I was prepared for the question.
If I was a Republican voter, I’d write in Jeb(!). This country cannot survive 4 years of Ted Cruz’s face/voice.
