Ya we have to think about it.
This is where we are today.
The bar lowered through the earth’s crust to the opposite side of the planet.
Stoning on the public square? Biblical, baby!
This seems eerily familiar. This is Donald Trump capturing the Republican nomination. And how’d that work out for us? Never doubt the depths of southern Republican stupidity.
But the state’s smart Republicans know something must be done — even if they don’t want to be the ones to do it.
backbone: strength of character; firmness; lack of is common feature in Republicans
this is all bs. They, the Alabama GOP and it’s voters, picked Moore. He was unfit for office even before these allegations. But they liked it that way. Now they want to game themselves a do-over. Screw them. You’re stuck with him fellas, and you deserve all the shit that is coming your way now.
FIFY.
state Republicans face a no-win situation politically.
Yep. But they created and then pandered to their own rabid base. Came back to bite them. Next time try good governance. It’s actually in the job description if you’d care to look.
The answer on Roy Moore’s fate is self-evident to most people, but for the Alabama GOP, not so much. Very telling.
"…He wants to be martyred,”
Bingo!
Altogether now: GO DOUG, GO!
(And, for those of us who can’t get to Alabama to work, give some lucre.)
Dear Alabama Republicans who don’t want Moore,
Make it clear you won’t vote for the guy. Find another Republican to back if you refuse to vote Democratic.
So what if Jones wins? (A) you just might like him or (B) he can be voted out in a few years.
Don’t let the Moore fanatics kick you around.
Let’s give him his wish.
Roy Moore: I absolutely to the best of my recollection generally did not hang around high school football games and malls and middle schools to pick up hot underage girls in my Burberry and loafers.
And this time the martyrdom isn’t over something that would look admirable to a bigoted theocrat. It’s about being a rapist and child molester. The bigots can try to brass it out but after five accusations and a growing pile of circumstantial evidence that’s not something he’s going to be exonerated for. So we’re kind of talking about putting the white in “whited sepulchre.” His own supporters will see in time what he really was.
My understanding is AL Dems don’t want outside help.
I usually don’t partake so early in the morning, but that bottle of Schadenfreude in the freezer is looking mighty tempting.
ah… it is very tempting. But I’m not gonna open mine until Doug Jones is declared the winner.
I’m hoping it will age well while I’m waiting.
(eta: I’m hoping I get to open it!)
When’s your next flight, btw? I’m waiting for something really big to break:)
I board at 11:55 am.
