Sen Cassidy: We have to move beyond what someone thinks might be true because it is on the internet."
Whoa! Are you saying that the internet is not a dependable source of information? Next you will be claiming that the web has not brought the world together.
The Republican Party could use a hot applesauce enema about now.
Don’t think she can educate anymore than she has.
What she knows , I don’t want to know.
“Now climate science is another thing altogether,” Said McConnell, “I assure you Republicans are united in denying any reality that might cause our corporate sponsors to have to change their behavior.” He further noted that science in general should not be considered a source of truth when biblical issues were being debated, nor should mathematical science ever be applied to supply side economic theory, which he insisted was an ironclad notion he would never deny, even in the face of overwhelming evidence. “Where our corporate sponsors bottom line is involved, there is nothing that will invoke objective truth into our decision making, nothing whatsoever.”
Cassidy thinking.
I’m not going to interrupt the circular firing squad, but

Me sowing: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!!
Me reaping: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.
“We have to move beyond what someone thinks might be true because it’s on the internet, into what is true as best as we can understand it,” Cassidy said during a CBS interview early Tuesday.
Well, that’s it. He’s out of the party.
No, he’s just gambling that he can keep most of Trump’s new MAGA voters while still minimizing the repulsion of suburban white women at the worst of their bullshit. Good luck with that plan, Mitch.
Indeed, their demand for unstinting loyalty and mean ass party discipline models organized crime. Maybe no cement shoes, but certainly political death by other means.
I’m glad the DCCC is playing hardball with them.
“he stood with Q, not you.” is very catchy and to the point.
Mitch condemning anyone for telling ‘‘loony lies’’ is bizarre in and of itself.
We all know that Mitch miscalculated bigly and it cost him and the party. He’s trying to get the toothpaste back in the tube with flopsweat. Why any other Senator wants to latch onto that is beyond me.
Please, just make sure you don’t say the person’s name that you’re referencing. Don’t want to look like you’re picking on someone.
Yea verily, Machiavelli himself would laud Mitch’s cynicism worthy of a Joe Stalin.
Both sides of the aisle. Really ?
They’ve jumped off a sinking ship (Trump) onto a burning ship (QAnon/MTG). Now they are deciding whether they prefer to be hot and crispy or wet and cold.
OT:
ExxonMobil reported a loss of 22billion in 2020. Worst performance in decades.
[I wonder how much covid relief money McConnell and Cassidy want to send to Big Oil.]
Now there’s a real Profile in Courage (snort, guffaw!)
You forgot - “We won the election in a landslide.”
Climate denial is one of the most cynical things Reps have done. It went from “not happening” in the 2000s to “maybe happening but Dems are hysterical” in the 2010s to now “it’s happening but the USA can’t do anything about India and China so what’s the point.”
Meanwhile, the Gulf of Mexico and all the countries that are on it are increasingly getting destroyed by hurricanes. I really do wonder how many more Cat 4s and 5s it going to take for the voters in FL, AL, MS, La, and TX to figure it out. Not holding my breadth.
Next step - “It’s happening and to stop it we need to issue a cost plus open end no bid contract to Koch Industries.”
