“If he’s withdrawn from public life and genuinely turned over a new leaf, then leave him alone.”

Lies are only lies if you’re willing to hear the truth.  Exposing him won’t work, because his base will intentionally avoid hearing the truth... this is a foundational principle of the modern GOP, and their voters are absolutely on-board.

Yeah, the ‘let’s feel sorry for Will Smith because he acted like a child’ bit has been going on for far too long. Him going on a multi-million dollar ‘spiritual vacation’ afterwards certainly doesn’t garner sympathy in my eyes.

Well, the alternative is accountability, and you know they aren’t signing up for that shit.

I agree that it’s meaningless to look back at our political history and start drawing conclusions about today from it... mostly because our government doesn’t function like it used to, but also because the level of outside influence dictating how our government functions is stronger than the will of the people by…

“Why are Democrats even working with Republicans to push this garbage compromise?”

How to save up enough to buy a house:

Was he drunk on Jan. 6th?  He appeared to be awake... so, yes.  Obviously.  The man hasn’t been sober in decades.  That’s not why his ideas were bad though, it’s because they were anti-democratic and based on wholesale fabrications.

I didn’t realize this was even a thing until about 6 months ago... I was stopped at a green, because there was no room from me on the other side of the light (there was already 1 1/2 cars sticking into the intersection); person pulls into the left turn lane (immediately to my left) and then cuts in front of me (in the…

Translation: “Conservatives love this shit, and will never punish a white man for being violent”

“Let me know how BLM works out with zero support from outside your own community, bigot.”

“I want to see you try to rescue a full grown clothed and fighting for his life drowning man with no floatation device.”

This... they can make whatever changes they want, but there is literally nothing that would bring me back to that game.  The first couple weeks were bad enough for me to uninstall, and considering they burned me on the launch of BF4 the same way, there’s zero chance I’ll buy another BF game... and I’d really like to…

“You’re a liar... or generally ignorant”

“Were you able to swim and bring someone in without equipment?”

First, I would... and have... jumped into water to save people’s lives. Not because I was employed to do so, but because I value human life and find it very difficult to watch someone suffer when I can do something to stop it.

No, it’s far more devious than that. You see, minorities in this country are having babies at a higher rate than whites and have been doing so for generations in a ploy to displace white conservative voters and strip them of their voting power.

Remember that they’ll only do their jobs as long as it doesn’t get them dirty or wet, or doesn’t require physical exertion, or if there is no risk of danger, or if you never call them out on their inadequacies and abuses.

This is him positioning himself to simultaneously look like he’s trying to do something, while also making sure he’s got reasons to not support the Democrats when they inevitably have at least 1 minor difference in approach than what he’d like.

“If the committee has no teeth, and their lack of accomplishments to date (your words) constitutes evidence of an ineffectiveness fatal to its chartered purpose, then shouldn’t matter who they call or don’t call”
