Does this make The Beatles into the Roman Empire of music?

The British Empire, actually.

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking, but essentially I either need to get benefits by the time I turn 26 or I need to sign up for insurance through the ACA.

Yeah, same situation as my bro, then. Thanks for your take.

The Roman Empire was active far too long to be the Beatles.

 

[Kieran McConville]

The Roman Empire were the Rush of geopolitical entities.

In that case, Temple of the Dog was the Iroquois Confederacy of music

Is Donald really a conservative by book-definition or is he just saying insane things?

 

[Kieran McConville]

There's no way Trump is a 'movement conservative' in any coherent way. He'll play to the reactionaries but he's mostly just a troll.

Wow, for once Mack makes sense.

NO, Trump is not a conservative. Glenn Beck of all people, exposed this truth. It has nothing to do with policy or principle; he hates the same people they hate. Period

Agreed on all accounts

That means I'm rolling my eyes at BVS making it personal (completely unprovoked).

In 1997, Michael Wayne Haley was arrested after stealing a calculator from Walmart. This was a crime that merited a maximum two-year prison term. But prosecutors incorrectly applied a habitual offender law. Neither the judge nor the defense lawyer caught the error and Haley was sentenced to 16 years.

Eventually, the mistake came to light and Haley tried to fix it. Ted Cruz was solicitor general of Texas at the time. Instead of just letting Haley go for time served, Cruz took the case to the Supreme Court to keep Haley in prison for the full 16 years.

Some justices were skeptical. “Is there some rule that you can’t confess error in your state?” Justice Anthony Kennedy asked. The court system did finally let Haley out of prison, after six years.

Ted Cruz should be in prison.

 

[iron yuppie]

Two years for stealing a calculator? This country really needs to get its prison system under control in a hurry, and no one really seems to want to talk about it.
