You having us on? His last name is Pecker? All kinds of awesome.

Matt “The Interrupter” moderating the debate and interviewing HRC makes my rage-fueled acid reflux start burbling and fluxing. So infuriating to this minute.

Look, some women can be the most ardent supporters of an oppressive patriarchal system. Pam has survived in spite of/by virtue of her physical attributes all her life and can’t see the forest for the trees.

I have to be honest, and I’m sure I’ll receive flack for it, but I get what she’s saying. Yes, women should be able to walk into a business meeting (regardless of the unusual setting that it’s taking place in) and be safe.

This has been my view of the tax bill as well. I have only two hopes left to hang onto:

Exactly. The entire 19th century is one long story of people being killed because of things that were preventable with just a little bit of knowledge and planning but persisted because of capitalist greed and religious fear. The idea that anyone would want to take us back to that era is mind-boggling.

A-fucking-men. So well said. I would include anti-vaccine idiots who haven’t seen their siblings/children die or be permanently damaged from vaccine-preventable illnesses.

I would be a traitor to these poor burned bodies if I came here to talk good fellowship. We have tried you good people of the public and we have found you wanting… We have tried you citizens; we are trying you now, and you have a couple of dollars for the sorrowing mothers, brothers and sisters by way of a charity

One reason the Republicans are getting away with dismantling not only our democracy, but all of the regulations and protections it has enabled (from Social Security to public employee unions to fire safety regs) is that so few people are alive today who can remember the world as it was before.

Same with vaccines. It’s so frustrating.

It drives me NUTS to see people who’ve never had a financial or other catastrophic setback in their lives (looking at you, libertarians) and just assuming their luck was because they’re so awesome and Ubermensch-y and shit. Not because of hundreds of disasters, and thousands of unsung heroes who insisted those

They say that safety regulations are written in blood, and I shudder to think of them being stripped away by greedy idiots.

it really is pretty lol how willing the left is to eat their own with the most scant of evidence. this is a roger stone/sean hannity hit piece in action and the left is too dumb to realize it. who would have thought that a “believe any accusation no matter what at any time anywhere by anybody” policy could be

I’m not concerned about the moral compass of Gropenführer. He’s already gone.

I feel like there is a fine line here between saying “give him a pass” to “he did this, it sucks, and he needs to face the consequences for his actions.” and saying “he should resign, the shit stain”. Like there shouldn’t be, they seem very different stances but somehow you land in one of the extreme camps.

And liberals/progressives will never learn this lesson. They like the self-righteousness too much. Oh well, enjoy the conservative control of government for another generation!

No, I mean their politicians whenever they’re attacked for something. Conservatives rally and keep them in office while liberals/progressives immediately throw them to the wolves. Ask Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama.

So the big topic of a Republican Senatorial candidate embroiled in a sex scandal will end with a Democratic Senator being forced to resign. Like clockwork.

Must be Tuesday

I don’t believe they’re even speaking English. I always feel like Charlie Brown.
