Deadulus posted:Is the deadline for Iran deal tomorrow? The most likely expectation is that they'll announce some kind of general framework for a deal, with the details to be hammered out over the next few months. hobbesmaster posted:So someone was emailing Clinton about stuff happening in Georgia without registering as a foreign lobbyist first. Clinton did what here? Yeah, I don't see anything in that article that directly incriminates Hillary. Blumenthal, on the other hand, is in a bit of hot water here.

PostNouveau posted:Deadline is tomorrow. The news is the same as it's been for weeks, "We're very close to an agreement, but thorny issues remain." Presumably nothing much new is coming out lately because everyone who knows anything is locked in a backroom somewhere trying to hammer it out.

It's self-imposed, and the talks have already missed a couple of deadlines. The BBC says all sides are already talking about these talks stretching into Wednesday.

Not sure if this is the article you had in mind, but it's pro-read regardless: Christians in the Hand of an Angry God The rebranding stuff is in part 2 quote:So it was at the 1964 Republican anti-communist caucus that somebody, and I think Dr. Stormer said it was George Will, laid down the law, and hit all the delegates present with a big whopping clue-by-four: if communism was to be defeated, then the Republicans were going to have to become a majority party. Seems obvious in hindsight, doesn't it?

Bonus quote of the day, "When I arrived in Washington after everyone else had been sworn in, [Senator Kennedy] became my tutor and my guide. He introduced me to other Senators whom I'd never met. I'm the first United States Senator, other than him, I ever knew, and so it was new. I remember him taking me into the Senate gymnasium... where like a YMCA the men walk around between the shower stalls with nothing on. And he said, 'Joe, I'd like you to meet Jack Javits.' I felt embarrassed. I was fully clothed!" ~ Joe Biden, at the dedication of the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the U.S. Senate today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk69IUzGtac

JT Jag posted:Vomiting is clearly the greatest sin before god We are dealing with biblical fundamentalists, so yeah, that's a good plan. Of course the thing about Biblical fundamentalists is they tend to only read the 3 Ps - Psalms, Proverbs, and Paul - and ignore the rest, like "love thy neighbor". And on that note, they would stick with Proverbs 26:11 for their vomit passages "As a dog returns to its vomit, so fools repeat their folly."
