You put your finger on it. No, I’ll have to hand it to you. No, let’s face it, you’ve got it!
Given the post number, I feel obligated to say: “Noice”.
As happens often in this thread, this story is more evil than stupid. The GOP - stupid, evil, stupidly evil, evilly stupid. Why be one thing?
In North Carolina this morning, while the governor and most of the democrat lawmakers were at a 9/11 ceremony, the republican lawmakers held a surprise vote to override the governor’s veto of the budget bill. The republicans had pinky swore they would not hold any votes until the afternoon. Suck it libs!
“I’m so very disappointed that the Republicans would stoop to this level. If you could’ve seen the smirking, the rib poking, the grinning, the thrill of victory when you have intentionally mislead our leader, that is despicable behavior.” Rep. Deb Butler (D-Wilmington) said. “I don’t mind losing a fair fight, but the deceit and misdirection and gotcha style politics should upset every voter in North Carolina.”
Did this during a 9/11 ceremony! I’d say it’s unbelievable but it’s really not.
And just as a little extra fuck you, we have this
Even asfter skipping a 9/11 rememberence ceremony to score a cheap win against democracy, they are still trying to play the more patriot than thou card.
On the good side if H.Ditka ever tries to claim the Republicans love America more than Democrats I can throw this in his face.
Wow! Sneaky lil’ critters, ain’t they? Freakin’ scumbags… How I hates 'em!
Won’t work. He’ll just agree with the scumbags, and claim that Republicans are more patriotic BECAUSE they skipped the 9/11 ceremony. There is nothing they won’t stoop to, nobody they can’t blame.
Even though he seems to be saying he’s a former American, I like the sentiment.
…and they’ll tell themselves, and voters, that Democrats would have done the same thing.
My state never fails to embarrass me. :smack:
So Rudy Giuliani just posted this video of a child who was inspired by 9/11 to become a police officer, having to stand against Antifa protesters getting ready to attack him and apparently burn flags. Remembering 9/11, amirite?
That video, besides being apparently 100% fiction, is really, really melodramatic.
By God, the FBI should march straight to Antifas Central and arrest all the leaders! All of them!
This story makes me long for the days when legislators would attack each other with canes.
It didn’t used to, though. That’s the most upsetting thing. Sure you had your Virginia Foxes and Bladen Counties, but this just leaves me astounded.
Individual 1’s spiritual adviser, Paula White, says she has consecrated the White House as holy ground with the superior blood of Jesus.
This is…extremely impressive.
I don’t know whether I’m more intrigued by Paula’s ability to procure limitless amounts of superior Jesus blood; by her insight about Satan infiltrating the Ivy League; by her willingness to burn down all of America’s institutions; or by her intimate knowledge of just HOW to shove that eggplant up her ass.
Is this the first president to allow screwballs like this near the White House?
Alas no.
Oh, come on: astrologists, acupuncturists, crystal-gazers, Wobblies, geomancers, Rosicrucianists, Wilhelm Reich orgone-boxers, vegetarians, card sharps, necromancers, ritual Sex Magick practitioners, dowsers, cheesemakers, Wiccans, stand-up comedians, flat-earthers, chiropractors, Tarot readers…they’re all welcome in Washington. I’m a liberal. (Actually an anarcho-syndicalist)
Where I draw the line is the XTIAN weirdoes.
Her problems with the American educational system apparently include the following:
:eek: OMG, do you mean that those eeeeevil Californians are actually teaching innocent grade schoolers to EAT SALAD?!?
That’s probably not what she means (although it’s probably the only interpretation under which her statement is even remotely true), but I find it funny that she was being so coy with her insinuation that it ended up not even necessarily meaning anything bad.
Or so Senator Roberts wishes.
