Man, I love that this new school is willing to burn the mud bugs of politics. It must hurt them so bad that the truth is finally slung back in their faces.

Please tell us what those American values are? I am talking to you, Alabama Repukes. Racism, sexism, lack of morality, etc.?

Jeepers, they really led with the chin on this one.

And what a fucking cheek. They just do not get this whole democracy lark at all.

Oh man I love this courageous young woman. Looking forward to many, many years of political activity from her and the rest of the class of 2018. We needed their new energy in the worst way.

She is something. She could have ignored their ridiculous idea, but chose not to. Try to imagine how difficult this path is that she has chosen and how great it is that she has good support.

I was thinking earlier how nice it would be if people like these AL GOPers could figure out how to be respectful of all people, so long as they’re not outright criminals.

“If you want to clean up politics, maybe don’t nominate an accused child molester as your Senate candidate?”

I’m tempted to call that childish, but then Roy Moore would just get all excited.

I still think he needs to apologize for what he tweeted. It was wrong.

I love how the class of 2018 slays on social media. I can just see the bunch of dried up old white Alabama Repugs thinking they were being so, so, something. Clever? Smart? Patriotic?

Be careful what you wish for… Sen. Romney would want to stash them all in binders!

O please - I’d love to turn them loose on Mittens and his binders. He’d run away screaming.

It hypnotizes me. I took some martial arts at UC Berkeley. The women black-belts were kick-ass. Literally.
