I hated the right wingers, but loved the guest comedian and discussion about our prison system
Anyone see it?

(20,453 posts)Sorry, but I came in late on that show, so names are out of my mind. What was interesting was the discussion on prisons.
I loved the comedian who actually traveled all over to places non of those right winged assholes would dare tread. He also went to the prisons and performed roasts after living among them. Of course, the obvious epiphany was that 90% of them were destined to return to society
regular "you and me" citizens. It's obvious that the majority don't belong there. Crime may not pay for the "criminal" but it sure does for the little boom towns that come up around the prison industry.

(20,453 posts)I didn't catch it until about 20 min in. What did you think about the comedian who went to those prisons and did comedy roasts after getting to know those dudes? In my reaction, this was a perfect segue to point out a few facts to wake up some clueless Americans.

(10,272 posts)He's a dick I can't stand the sight of him. He's like Ted Cruz, he's a bastard because it gets a rise out of people, it's the only way his worthless ass could get anywhere. He believes it ONLY as far as he has to in order to not go to prison for facilitating the War Crimes of his betters.
He's a professional Bootlicker, who tries at every turn to convince the rest of us that the wearers of the boots actually care about him or even know he exists. Nothing could be further from the truth, and he completely fucking knows it.
He's one of the few humans who, if he dropped dead tomorrow I wouldn't care.

(856 posts)Also I never miss it. I am glad that Bill quickly responded to Ron Christie's lie about President Obama pulling the troops out of Iraq resulted in ISIS violence. Bill rightly pointed out that it was Bush who signed the SOFA that required US Troops to leave Iraq. This lie is repeatedly told by Jebbie when President Obama tried to negotiate to leave 10,000 troops in Iraq but the PM Malaki refused (Obama even reduced the number 3,000 troops to no avail). PM Malaki stated that he campaigned that US troops would leave as Iraqis overwhelmingly wanted US troops gone & that no immunity would be given to US military.
