I am not sure our foremothers got shit done by being nice. Unless she is actually verbally abusive (like, actual name calling, not holding people accountable for shitty behaviour), or engaging in harassment, I am kind with George Will (shudder) on this one.

Just came to say the same thing. 

“To they extent that they (Long and Parker) are wrong, bigoted, ignorant etc., isn’t that still more important/interesting/worth examining given their motivating politics?”

I love how the cover photo for this story is the same as the camping teen who woke up to the bear “crunching” on his head. 

Mmmmm didn’t the owner of the Enquirer cop a plea with Mueller? I am not so sure that he is in Trump’s good graces at the moment. Maybe this was a reconciliation gift?
