They’d switch because they’re more closely aligned with the other party and because switching would allow them as individuals and the party they’re more closely aligned with as a whole to maintain the power they have now.

Yeah, no shit.

When you prefer your world be sorted into neat categories of black and white, you’re the victim of gutted education-system funding, and you believe in the existence of a divine being despite all evidence, you have been triply primed to swallow whole any line of rhetoric that both scares you (fear being the primary…

That’s not how it works in TrumpWorld. In TrumpWorld, assertions, no matter how ludicrous, do not require proof (i.e., “Obama tapped my phones.”) Assertions are always true until they’re disproven.

Because they’re really Republicans not Democrats. Voting Yes Kavanaugh confirmation as a Democrat should be automatic expulsion from Democratic Party.

Because if the Democrats get a 51-49 Senate, then those two are in the majority either way--with the added benefit of almost guaranteed success in future elections with every knuckle dragger expressing their gratitude for keeping the Senate out of the hands of those dirty commies.

I’m thinking 50-50 with Pence breaking the tie. It will be calculated so Collins and Murkowski can still vote no, just like they did with the DeVos confirmation.

They had a letter signed by 65 women saying what a good guy he is within 72 hours of Blasey Ford coming out. Mitch McConnell told Trump to pick someone else. They definitely knew.

Haha, thanks!  If we did, I don’t recall it.  Let me check my handwritten desktop calendar...

“Well you see, it was an election year and...Joe Biden rule...uh, benghazi...”
/trails off while walking backwards out of the room./

‘On the plus side, everyone at the United Nations laughed at him after he tried to brag about all of his accomplishments over the past two years.’

Seriously, their “drunken crazy slut” powers have been REALLY curtailed this time around, because the drunken crazy slut is a Him, not a Her....

Right, but my point was that the use of anti-Semitic dogwhistles (like “rejecting globalism in all its forms”) is not at all incompatible with a “pro-Israel, anti-Palestine, pro-Muslim ban” stance (which is what you seemed to be implying in your previous post). They are in favor of Israel because they believe it will…

Also there’s not nearly ENOUGH random THINGS capitalized.

If he tries to play that card a lot of us in sobriety are gonna call bullshit. The core of the 12 steps is about taking responsibility for your past actions and making amends. Denying and smearing your victims, which Kavanaugh has done, is the exact opposite of that. 

I don’t think they’ll ever trot that out for a few reasons. The first being that this is a man that still drinks heavily by the looks of him. The second that addressing alcoholism requires certain steps like rehab or AA or counseling and they can’t totally fabricate it, especially since recovery is an on-going years…

A lot of our parents are. Anything negative that comes out is a Democrat plant or scheme according to my dad. I honestly don’t think he gets news from anywhere other than Fox. 

can’t wait to tell my mom “the rest of the world is laughing at us”

Don’t forget “As a father of daughters....”

“How do we know Justice Sotomayor didn’t gang rape anybody as part of her initiation into MS-13?”
