Yes. People could express themselves in a more stern and resolute manner. Like maybe someone would like to hit Pete King in the face with a shovel. I’m not saying anyone ought to do it, mind you. But it would certainly be the stylistic change he’s asking for. That buttercup guy too.
The Greatest Generation fought Nazis across the ocean.
This generation has to fight them here on our shores and in the White House.
I, for one, salute and support them.
Edited to add: would our friends on the right prefer that we dressed up in Revolutionary War outfits? Would that help?
So says tough guy who studiously avoided fighting in the Vietnam War when he had a perfectly good chance to save America from godless Commies.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Obviously one of the first orders of business should be to set fire to whatever bullshit document this was extracted from.Maybe start a “protest” group. Call it the Irish Republican Army West. You know, something Pete could really support.
I’m STILL dismayed that moron (yep, HE is one) has been described as “moderate” recent years.
I love the smell of burning tires in the morning.
The fact that Pete King is still a congressman proves his point - there are a lot of morons out there.
Oh STFU Pete…you have said and done enough moronic things in YOUR life that you really shouldn’t be calling someone out on theirs. EVER.
Certainly didn’t take long for King to line up and bend over.
He’s surprisingly limber for his age. I know grabbing my ankles would be a test for sure.
Psssst. The Greatest Generation was full of Isolationists until Pearl Harbor and later full of slackers, deadbeats and draft dodgers. Don’t believe the WW II Hollywood version. They had to make a number of propaganda movies to convince people and to shame others. Then the Office of War Information (OWI) Bureau of Graphics was the government agency in charge of producing and distributing propaganda posters.
Second Amendment Rocks!!!
First Amendment…um, run that one by me again?
"Are these the morons we’re counting on to be leaders in the future?”
(Psssst, Pete King, we don’t have to wait for the future. You are in Congress.)
And is there anything more festive than bomb blasts and sirens?
May William Bendix haunt your dreams!!!
Pete King’s particular brand of asshattery has to die off eventually, right?
“C’mon, have some guts, have some nerve, get out there, we’re supposed to be a great country. Are these the morons we’re counting on to be leaders in the future?”
I thought we elected Trump precisely because America wasn’t great anymore. <<sigh>>
You have to understand how the rules work:
- When Obama wins the popular vote and Electoral College-twice, and handily both times-the Republicans get to have a temper tantrum for 8 years.
- When a GOP Presidential nominee loses the popular vote, but “wins” the Electoral College, Democrats should immediately “get over it.”
