Cursed Political Content

Point of fact, this is not precedent setting.

In 1973, flags were flown at half-staff (ships have masts and presidents aren't sworn in on ships) during Nixon's second inauguration because Truman had passed away fewer than 30 days earlier. Why does 30 days matter? Because in 1954, President Eisenhower, a Republican, issued a proclamation establishing the convention of flying the nation's flag at half-staff on government buildings for that period of time following a former president's passing.

I don't think we should abandon such a convention because this pathetic bitch so desperately needs to grab its ankles for its bronzer daddy.

STOP ERASING OUR HISTORY!

Hoping against hope that's just a fairly common surname and there's no relation to John "Alternate Slate of Electors" Eastman.

So many similarly named places in North America finally creates an issue that the US ejucashun system cannot handle.

Conservative is when you cry like a little bitch about ASL interpreters at press conferences.

This particular topic and conservative fit especially irritates me. As a deaf person, I don't think I need to spell out why these things going away or coming under attack would be bad for me and others with hearing loss.

It has to be agonizing for conservatives now-a-days, the littlest thing on TV/Internet sending you into a tizzy on Twitter instead of ignoring it or changing the channel, or perhaps paying attention to what's being relayed to you if it has to have an ASL interpreter present.
