Huh? I rarely ever comment here.

Edited to add, that over on the Bernie thread i agreed with another poster that the time for division among ourselves is over. We have bigger, more important battles to fight. Hopefully you and i can do our part to make things better, aside from posting on internet message boards. I have plans to draft a letter to my senators and representative over the break, and making donations to a few organizations. What about you?

Spencer said Monday that those terms were meant to be “cheeky,” “exuberant” and “ironic.”

The cheeky reenactment of shower scenes at Bergen-Belsen, put on in the break out session in conference room 3B, were the subject of rave reviews over drinks later that evening. Seinfeld himself couldn't have pulled it off any better.

We ‘Denounce Racism’

But we’ll still take their money and their votes, we’ll still use their rhetoric and many of their policies, and we’ll still hire them for our administration.
