This from the Orwell’s Memory Hole Institute:
Merriam Webster changed the definition of “Preference” to be Offensive when used regarding “orientation” after Mazie Hirono’s diatribe against ACB. Prior to yesterday it wasn’t noted as offensive.
It would be fiction if it weren’t true.

Mazie Hirono. Everything ACB is not. Starting with vapid. You don’t suppose Mazie is just a tad bit jealous?
2 1/2 days in and dems sprung the preference trap. Shit, I’m starting to think Antifa is right. Burn this mother effer to the ground. Scorched earth. With Harris, Hirono and Spartacus leading the charge, what could go wrong?

Dawg, you should be ashamed. Most ridiculous comment you have ever made. Calling Hirono vapid is way too complimentary a description. At the very least, you could have described her as the poster child for moronity, witless, brainless, mindless or the like. Calling her vapid only is the equivalent of calling David Shaw`s O sometimes adequate instead of colorless, uninspired and insipid.

[quote quote=3097]Agree with Frank completely. The Hawaiian electorate astounds and mystifies me. Tulsi Gabbard at least has style and intelligence.[/quote]
I’ll just leave this here. Hawaii is no different from California.
California politics is such that extremely mediocre people who could never get hired at a regional, third-rate law firm somehow get elevated to power based on who they … know, and there's really nothing to be done. The machine dictates who gets to fill the slot next. Period. https://t.co/OiRhC9z5lP

I don’t understand all the gnashing of teeth over Senator Hirono’s great effort here. She, with an assist from Webster’s, helped ACB highlight the importance of her judicial philosophy.
As a textualist, ACB will fairly apply the law and Constitution as written. ACB bases her legal reasoning on the meaning of the plain text at the time it was written. Hirono on the other hand, is only too happy to interpret language within the context of current usage and updated value systems. Hirono aptly demonstrates the distinction between the certainty that results from a system of laws and the transient and uncertain nature associated with a system of men.

I wish I knew how to add an upvote button just for this post because you hit the nail on the head Bob. A textualist being criticized for using a word that is not offensive in its definition really underscores the value of textualists on the court.
If I want to change the law, I should have to change the law, not change how people perceive the words in the law.

Senator Hirono’s life story is interesting and somehow she boot strapped her way up the ladder. Good for her. But what makes Hawaii tick to vote her in? I think it’s because in Hawaii, the politics are like Portland, Seattle and California and more and more New England. Hirono is mainstream in Hawaii and extreme to most of the mainland. The Republican party is extinct and there are no checks and balances to concern her or Tulsi. Food for thought about a one party country.
Here is one article.
