Cheney was always one of the most reprehensibly right-wing Congresscritters, but lots of lefties love her because she voted to impeach Donnie Trump, and she gives great lip service to the Constitution. I have enthusiastically never been in the love-Liz crowd. She's opposed to gay rights, women's rights, minority rights, health care rights, human rights, etc, and she doesn't give a damn about the Constitution — she just doesn't like Donnie.

Being old, death gets my attention, so I read the obituaries. This is a collection of recent obits, mostly of people whose work touched my life, because I want to say thanks (or maybe give 'em a final fuck you).
There’ll be a roundup like this occasionally, until I’m on the list myself.

I would really like an answer to that.
The answer is, if Kamala Harris says anything less than wholeheartedly supportive of Israel's ongoing war crimes, she'll be slammed all across the media for anti-Semitism. That's rancid but it's a fact, so she's probably politically smart to shut up about it until after the election.
I strongly suspect that if she wins, Ms Harris still won't say much about the genocide. But... she's better than Trump, on this and every issue.
Devolved? No, man, I've always been this way.
Did some research, actually, and concluded long ago that most 9/11 skeptics and truthers are empty-headed fools — and all the ones who say "do your own research."
It's treason, and Republicans want a second try at it.
Prosecutors said Haspil had been hired as an assistant for Saleh, whose ventures included a ride-hailing motorcycle startup in Nigeria, but quickly began to siphon money from Saleh’s businesses.
That's a painfully clumsy sentence. Has AP no editors?
This really plugs my drain, man. When I worked in payroll, I would've known it was dicey accepting gifts from employees or managers. And I was nobody, just an ordinary worker-schmoe.
Judges should be held to a higher standard, not no frickin' standard at all.
It wasn't my croppage, but I've fixed it, thanks.
I missed it too, but now I'm laughing so hard the cat is hiding down the hall... :)
Definitely an all-time favorite. I'll see anything with her in it.
