So, be Ted Cruz, or grow up - which one is it he wants again?
Ted is a full-grown troll, while Cornyn is still negotiating puberty.
Sen.Cornyn apparently missed my post from yesterday. To repeat: Do not try to screw with strong, smart women. They will hand you your balls in a doggie bag.
Of course he tried it again. These guys are really just one trick ponies. “I’m not racist…I just happen to support these policies that do horrible damage to minority rights, but that’s not racist either because I argue for those policies without dropping n-bombs.”
But as me dear ole dad used to say, “You have to grow old, you don’t have to grow up…”
From where I’m sitting it seems that Cancun Ted has really taken that one to heart…
When did the entire GOP turn into a bunch of race-baiting trolls? I can’t even stand to hate watch them anymore.
Exactly. That’s the whole point of the new laws, isn’t it? To keep the POC who voted in 2020 from doing so again.
“Why is an orange?”
Cornyn looks like a Senator, but his looks are skin deep. Beyond his looks Cornyn is a foolish featherweight who thinks he can trick Stacy Abrams, who is as slick as politicians come. Sad.
It seems like H.G. Wells got the dichotomy of the split in human society a little wrong. He imagined the savage, clever Morlocks feeding on the kind, naïve Eloi. In reality, we seem to be dealing with savage, naïve Morlocks feeding on each other, while the kind and clever Eloi have to figure out how to navigate life alongside the Morlocks.
In the case of Stacey Abrams, there will be no bag. Just a card expressing appreciation for the donation to medical science.
In the modern era, it started (openly) with Lee Atwater and the Southern Strategy. Then the Willie Horton and White Hands ads, ad infinitum.
GOP’s modus operandi with pretty much all women people of color.
FIFY
Cornyn’s grasp exceeds his intelligence…
Good question. It sure doesn’t think, so how can it be?
George W. Bush says that you represent a Nativist party, Senator; and for once in my life, I think he’s trying to tell the truth. That statement by a former Republican president is now going to be memorialized within the records of the National Archives and among historians worldwide.
The jig is up. You support suppressing the vote within a republic. That is sedition. All the smug innuendos and silly parlor tricks being tossed around within your Senate committee won’t make that declaration go away. Putin can’t even help you any longer.
It has become clear that the BLM movement and the GOP’s insider Capitol insurrection will have consequences far beyond what Hawley, Trump and Cruz ever thought. When you lose the respect of your senior leadership, you have lost it among future generations, too.
Stacey Abrams also shoved the stupid voting rights “Gotcha!” questions up the ass of Queen Cersei:
Pity we can’t handle trolls like Cornyn and Cruz and Grassley as easily as Gandalf did in The Hobbit.
Keep it up, boys - the GOP already lost this whole argument and knows it.
The conversion started around 1968 with Nixon’s Southern Strategy, and was essentially complete by the end of Bush the Elder’s single term.
