Going to be part of my first Iowa caucus tonight (bit grumbly that I have to register as a Democrat to participate, but c’est la vie). You’ll see a live blog of it on the Powder Room tonight.

BAM!

At this point I think he just calls her “Mom”

I just got in a Facebook argument this morning about that dummy B.o.B. thinking the Earth is flat. The person I was arguing with said that “everyone’s entitled to their opinions” and I was like, “sure, but the earth being round is a fact” and then pointed him to an elementary school level article about the difference…

I think he likes to stoke the racial hatred of a broad swathe of white people who are struggling economically either currently or are in entrenched poverty. I wish they would seek real change and a candidate that wants to materially improve their lives but that would require real change. No GOP candidate wants to…

If you can’t afford to put food in your fridge, you aren’t middle class and would likely benefit from.....WELFARE! Don’t blame the people who understand that and signed up for it, blame your asshole bosses who pay you “middle class” wages of $9 an hour.

Alot of them seem to yearn for a mythical golden age, where all the heroes where John Wayne and all bootstrapy and such. The fact they are still the most privileged class on the planet means nothing to them; because they compare themselves to a past that never existed.

For fuck’s sake people. I can’t even offer anything besides that because there’s no arguing with these type of people. Literally ANY study, ANY report, ANY info at all that you could try to show them to counteract what they believe and they just dismiss it as being untrue “because”.
