Living in fear, voting in fear.
Living in fear, voting in fear.
I don’t know about “stupid” per se, but the GOP is absolutely plagued by a lack of emotional intelligence and empathy. My father, for example, is a brilliant man in many ways but he is a hardcore conservative and some incredibly stupid shit falls outta his mouth sometimes because he has a fundamental inability to put…
Seriously. If seeing Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill makes you more upset and “divisive,” then you have a big problem.
Which is a failure of the party to get out the vote. Like John Oliver has pointed out in his segment on the NRA during the last episode, the right wing has it easier - they don’t need to formulate complicated plans and get the voters to understand them, they only need to say “no!”. It’s easier to get out the vote when…
The evil side of me thinks Obama needs to come up with a long list of safety advice for our country. He needs to give a long, earnest speech about how he wants to see every American wear their seatbelt when in the car, and how important it is to never, ever stick forks in electrical sockets.
I always love how they seem to alternate painting Obama as comically inept and weak and also a devious mastermind capable of destroying us all.
Not as such, but I believe 19th Century Donald Trump said that escaped slaves were “thieves, rapists, and some, assumedly, are articulate people.”
That IS what they want to do. The fundamental argument of these conservatives is, “Government is broken, it doesn’t work, it should be smaller and replaced my a more efficient private system whenever possible.”
Their basic strategy has been awesome since 2010. This is true. And works party because Democrats are WORTHLESS at getting out to vote in non-presidential years (Let’s do better). And also redistricting.
My personal favorite stupid Obama protest was in 2009. I think the CDC started telling people to sneeze into their sleeves instead of their hands, to help slow the spread of colds. President Obama said something to help spread the message. All the sudden conservatives were going to sneeze into their hands, goddammit,…
ick, puppy mill legislation. If you ever think there is a chance to reach across the aisle to these assholes, just remember that they won’t vote to prevent puppy mills.
It’s always like this for men like this. White men being celebrated for their (in this case pretty controversial) accomplishments is fair. But if it’s a woman or a person of color, these men are immediately shouting about affirmative action, social justice warriors and political correctness.
Really? It's symbolic gesture- not like anyone is asking him to pay her the same wage as a white man.
WHY CHANGE THINGS Y’KNOW?
Boy if that isn’t the truth. It’s like a tick at this point, just automatic.
I’d like to think so but after working in finance for many years I saw a whole new crop of asswipes and they were in their early 20's. I hope you are right though.
Nope. They know exactly what makes their base tick.
Exactly. My mind boggles at their lunacy and claims about the Obamas. Communist dictator? If President Obama was actually a communist dictator, they sure as shit wouldn’t be allowed to run their mouths the way they have. They’d be spending hard time in a labor camp at best. This is the same group of people who got so…
I’m seriously thinking that the g20 nations should have a g19 summit. We’re at that point where private discussions about what to do about the retarded cousin with the bulk of daddy’s estate are becoming necessary. We love you but things are seriously spinning out of control.
