That was back in a time when our elected leaders had charisma and personality.
Now they are either two steps from the grave or a ****' millennial social justice hack ****.

Hold the **** phone a minute, there.
Are you You ARE implying that some stuff WAS getting done or WOULD BE getting done, if not for the courageous ****-flinging of the Hateful Eight.
Can you name a thing or two, so I can say a thing or two about a thing or two? Because I KNOW a thing or two about a thing or two. And one of the things or two I know is that not **** much was getting done that I considered helpful...
Also, there's this. There were only EIGHT repukes that brought this devastation on America. There were TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN democ rats.
Please - comment on THAT.

They have the majority. They earned it. Now they need to prove that the deserve it.

McCarthy failed. So he's out.
The Hateful Eight stood by their promises. The $quad did not. You need to tuck your bottom lip in, and tend YOUR **** garden. Let the repukes worry about the repukes, instead of knee-jerking on que and quoting allies you pretend to still dislike.

That is not how it works. McCarthy FAILED. So he is out.
The Hateful 8 could not be bullied and bought off as easily as the $quad.
If he had an honest bone in his body (besides his boyfriend's), he would be CHEERING those 8 for showing the $quad - and the country - how to be a proper refusenik.

What a whiney bitch. He held himself over 60%-80% of his colleges with his contract on America. He was part of small minority movements while he was in congress.maineman » 04 Oct 2023, 3:25 pm » wrote: ↑ here's a portion of what a fairly prominent Republican had to say about this McCarthy fiasco:
GINGRICH: I think it's a very sad day because I think Kevin McCarthy is one of the most talented leaders I've ever worked with. I think that he accomplished an amazing amount for having a small majority and having to take on both the Senate and the White House. I think this is really a tragic outcome.
This was a leader who both gained seats in 2020, gained seats in 2022, increased the number of women members, increased the number of veterans, increased the number of minority members, and he had a vision for a better future.
Let's be clear here, if the University of Georgia Bulldogs were the number one team in the country right now, if you started a game and four of the members of the offensive squad decided they were actually on the Alabama side and began tackling your own people, you would probably get them off the field. Think about what we saw today? 4 percent, 4 percent decided they were so morally superior, so intellectually pure, so patriotically better, that they would side with the Democrats and that's what they did, in order to defeat the entire Republican house caucus. 96 percent of the Republicans voted for McCarthy, 4 percent voted against him.
For my position as a longtime Republican activist, they are traitors, all eight of them should be primaried, they should all be driven out of public life. What they did was to go to the other team to cause total chaos. We've got to be focusing on Biden, we ought to be focusing on the economy, we ought to be focusing on the border. Instead, you're going to get a week or ten days of the media focusing on Republican disarray rate. It's an astonishing destructive behavior by a handful of egocentric people who think they are superior to 96 percent of the conference.
4 Oct 2023 7:34 pm
Yeah, well, you tend to look at issues with a great deal more intellectual integrity than he does. He has been instructed to be mad at 8 repukes for doing what 216 democ rats did.Mrkelly » 04 Oct 2023, 7:31 pm » wrote: ↑ notice how the 8 republicans used the democrats to do an end around on the republican majority?

Disruption of a rigged game does not assist those who rigged it.
It is the one exquisite response that we have. It sabotages their game.
