The push by liberals to have opposing viewpoints in a discussion labeled as a form of harassment is a disturbing trend in the us.

Rio opening better than expected
EDIT
With a limited budget, the consequence of a biting recession that roiled preparations for South America’s first Olympics, Brazil laced its high-energy opening party for the games of the 31st Olympiad with a sobering message of the dangers of global warming.

Trump announces his team of economic advisers. All are pro-big bank, pro-TPP, and hedge fund managers. Basically a 2008 dream team of guys dedicated to f*#king the average American in the ass.

Like shipwrecked mariners clinging to a floating mast, many Republicans rationalize supporting Donald Trump because of “the court.” This two-word incantation means: Because we care so much for the Constitution, it is supremely important to entrust to Trump the making of Supreme Court nominations. Well.
In a Republican candidates debate, Trump complained that Ted Cruz had criticized Trump’s sister, a federal judge.
Trump said: “He’s been criticizing my sister for signing a certain bill. You know who else signed that bill? Justice Samuel Alito, a very conservative member of the Supreme Court, with my sister, signed that bill.”
Trump, the supposed savior of the Supreme Court, thinks federal judges sign bills.

Wa Post:
Trump unveils a new economic team full of wealthy advisers
Donald Trump announced a new team of ultra-rich financiers and businessmen as his core economic advisers, bringing high-profile names to his inner circle but also possibly stepping on his populist claims to save the middle class.
so, here we have what Trump considers to be "the best" economic advisors. Thirteen ultra-wealthy.
One economist among them.
I dunno, but this sounds like the takeover by the military-industrial complex

"Obsessed ego-maniacs like Fry and B0b Duh are definitely NOT watching it. They are consumed with inner-ego, inner-despair and spending ALL day wasting away HERE yelling at their keyboards(with help from Google mis-information)."
Watch it for a while, but also when bouldering, took the dog on two hikes and then just sent one guidebook (Shelf RD.) off to the printer and worked on the third edition of Boulder Canyon Rock Climbs.
I know my day wasn't as productive as your but I'll try harder tomorrow.
I can tell by your photo and trip report pages here on ST that you are a very, very good climber who done amazing things for the climbing community. Keep up the good work.
Redstate take on Trump and bill signing, pretty funny. http://www.redstate.com/leon_h_wolf/2016/02/26/donald-trumps-shocking-post-debate-admission/
Also...do you understand that Google is a search engine for information?

Mike Pence Tries to "Disprove" Evolution
http://www.atheistvoter.org/20160804-mike-pence-evolution
Indiana Governor and Republican Vice Presidential nominee Mike Pence has had a history of not understanding quite how evolution works. RightWingWatch has a video of Pence attempting to "disprove" evolution on the floor of the House of Representatives in 2002.
In the speech, Pence shows that he has no idea what "theory" means in a scientific context and repeatedly cites the Bible as evidence against evolution.
FLASHBACK: Mike Pence: 'It Is A Literal Truth... I Am In Congress Today Because Of Rush Limbaugh'
http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/flashback-mike-pence-it-literal-truth-i-am-congress-today-because-rush-limbaugh
Just over a month after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, Pence delivered a speech on the House floor which served no other purpose than to heap praise on the conservative talker
it is a literal truth, Mr. Speaker, to say that I am in Congress today because of Rush Limbaugh, and not because of some tangential impact on my career or his effect on the national debate; but because in fact after my first run for Congress in 1988, it was the new national voice emerging in 1989 across the heartland of Indiana of one Rush Hudson Limbaugh, III, that captured my imagination.”
Mike Pence
one of the loudest Pro-Life, anti-science, Evangelical, Homophobic voices in Politics today
He's also a master liar
The deer in the headlights moment when he was asked why he signed the Indiana anti-LBGT bill.
He said "Hosier's don't discriminate"
LIE
He folded and the bill was killed when Companies said they would pull out of the State, money talks.
So all the Trump supporters got exactly what they didn't want, an ultra establishment Neo-Con Christian suck up party of division and hate.
I heard that Reince Pribus made Trump pick Pence, to provide Party unity!
