Fastest way to get slapped down around here is to start telling everyone else what they should do.

What’s civil to one is not civil to another, right?

Reminds me of another issue lately with real consequences.

Haven’t read his Twitter feed lately, but I got this answer when I asked him about the sexist language that’s tossed around here. I quote: What the fuck can I do about it? First Amendment trumps civility, and that’s that…

Susan Collins, Jeff Flake, and Bob Corker are all frauds.

Language is a special area of it I think. So are quasi-Jungian archetypes. I mean, we can complain about the sexism inherent in depictions of women like Peggy Bundy or Edith, but look at Homer and Peter Griffin or fucking Raymond. Why’s the male figure always like THAT? Anyway, my thought is that we should concern ourselves primarily with behavior and actions first. The rest likely follows.

Collins is an idiot if she ever believed the house would pass anything, especially if it had anything to do with her. You almost have to wonder if there’s something in the bill that benefits her financially like Corker.

I hate the whole GOP at this point, but it seems there’s a special place for “reasonable” Republicans like Collins, Corker, and McCain who make noises about bipartisanship and then when it DOESN’T happen pretend that it did. And our media go right along with this fiction of collegiality and cooperation. These $%*#holes actually could have some leverage if they stuck to their guns, but they are satisfied with empty promises because the media will give them a free pass.
