Shorter Lead;
Republicans Play Dumb.
Which, nearly 11 months into this administration, becomes harder and harder to do–as Corker’s response makes clear: by not knowing what was said, you can at least be ignorant, if not dumb.
We shouldn’t be surprised Republicans beg off criticizing Trump. He could call all their wives mongrel whores and they’d defer protesting the slur until after the tax bill was signed.
Like their leader,Deferment Don, when the going gets tough the cowards will dodge anything for fear of the tweet.
Someone please just grow a fucking pair and publicly call him out as a raging narcissist, racist, misogynist asshole whose presence in the Oval Office not only demeans the country and everything it stands for, but presents a real and present, demonstrable danger to its citizens and the world at large. Fuck you all and your clinging to supposed high ground. Self-declared moral high ground won’t be putting food on 16M malnourished American children’s plates or insuring them, the disabled, the elderly, or curing cancer or reducing gun violence or reversing the ever-accelerating wealth gap or halting our rapid descent into plutocratic oligarchy and a more autocratic form of governance through the hijacking of democracy with geographic vote-weighting. Only fighting for real and meaning it will do any of that. Your posturing is useless.
NO QUARTER.
“Respectful dialogue and disagreement sets a better example for our children and the world,” said Sen. James Lankford (R-OK), who was also at the morning Bible study meeting.
They must set a good example for the children they are denying healthcare.
They’ve got to be hoping that Moore loses today, because they’re going to be in an even deeper hole if that religious nutjob wins.
When the calls for an ethics investigation get louder and louder, watching their behavior is going to be a sight to see.
Disaster.
The year must end being completely covered in sleaze. No neck-above-the-line stuff. They have to be submerged.
Ain’t it grand?
Play?
Shorterer Lead: Republicans Are Dumb
I call shenanigans on any ethics investigation ever being called to order. Moore gets seated and the rape and pillage continues unabated.
Did Paul Ryan furrow his brow?
Eddie Munster was last seen hitchhiking with a suitcase on the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge, heading for Wisconsin…
The problem is if you engage him in a No Quarter style, he will revel in it. It is exactly the ground he wants to fight on. And the battle is then lost. It is infuriating, but that is why rooms have doors that you can walk into, close the door and then yell, curse and scream. Then you go back and deal with it carefully, keeping yourself together and not allowing him to grab on to anything. Facts burn with this type.
One thing I want to point out is the minimal lip service in reference to being Hard On Russia. Damn still can’t type that without snickering now. But the question was laid out, important and it was tossed off like a used Kleenex.
The reporter should be making hay with this. This §resident expects his spokesperson to spend more time discussing his behavior with women than the issue of hostile states manipulating this country. The §resident wants to secure our borders, but in reality does nothing about real threats.
Brave Rethuglklans ducked questions, represented here by a rabbit, and once again did what they do best.
They’re not playing.
If Moore loses, the GOP loses.
If Jones loses, the GOP loses.
Heh.
C’mon, you mean they’re really that dumb? I’m crushed…
