Its definitely at least sometimes the stutter (like when he appeared to forget Obamas name and said the president instead, Im sure that was a word switch to get past the stutter).

Very good thread giving context for and critiquing Warren's support for the US war in Yemen. Warren eventually came around to supporting a bill to stop this but it's worth noting that her foreign policy advisers include people who work with the Saudi government, people who worked in the Pentagon while Obama escalated the war, and others who work for weapons-manufacturing think tanks. https://twitter.com/BurtonJM/status/1234913305573122053 It also appears that Warren sent a delegation to AIPAC. --- ICON: Kiwami means extreme. ...

Because if you let Trump appoint a 7-2 conservative majority Supreme Court good luck having any sort of progressive agenda during your lifetime. If you're okay with that then go ahead and stay home but at the very least you should go vote and write in Bernie Sanders. The conservative Supreme Court follows the law as written. If you pass constitutional progressive laws they will enforce them, if you want them to enact progressive policies themselves, they will refuse as they should. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ...

Conservatives follow the letter of the law. Progressives follow what they feel the law should mean today. Basically the difference.
If it is 7-2 the next Democratic president will just pack the court. And half the country will be outraged while the other half of happy. Same as always --- Xbox Live User Name - Corrik Currently playing: Spider-Man (PS4), Quantum Break (X1) ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, if you can actually pass all those ideas that Bernie wants, to the extent they are constitutional, the Supreme Court isn't going to stop them. The wealth tax is probably unconstitutional and you'll need a constitutional amendment for that, but, again, the Supreme Court isn't going to stop you from getting one. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ...

I still think it's dumb to be disheartened by endorsements like this.
We knew it was going to happen. Moderate candidates weren't going to drop out and endorse Bernie, and it was only wishful thinking to hope they'd stay in and play spoiler to Biden longer. As I think Chris said, if Bernie can't beat Biden without others to play spoiler, then it's not meant to be. --- #SEP #Awesome #Excellent #Greatness #SteveNash #VitaminWater #SmellingLikeTheVault #Pigeon #Sexy #ActuallyAVeryIntelligentVelociraptor #Heel #CoolSpot #EndOfSig ...

I don't like it when Trump's kids do it, and I don't like it when Biden's kids do it either. But there's no law there.
