Nice Democracy we had while it lasted.

Next year’s election is off?

They have “elections” in Iran too.

Allowing those in power to use the levers of government to lie and deceive the electorate in order to  maintain power so that they can keep self-dealing for themselves and their friends is not the hallmark of a Democracy.

That you would be apoplectic if a Democrat was doing this bit fully support it to keep tax cuts just more evidence of how far we have fallen.

Gee.
According to you and the Elba  “experts”  2016 was lost by a mere 77000 votes in 6 key states.
Seems to me a viable political party would find a way to overcome that tiny margin rather than the charade of fantasies like Russia!, Obstruction!  Campaign Finance Laws! The Kavanaugh Lie  and now Ukraine! 
Don’t be surprised when the voters put it altogether the only corruption they will care about came from the democrats.

3 key states.

And you are a liar who supports liars, cheats, and racists, not to mention criminals.

Now, that is not news.

No, HRC called anyone who did not agree with her liberal elitist platform, deplorable.

Liar.

[barton]

It's like a dementia ward.  The same pseudofacts, many from 2016, recited over and over by plaque-encrusted brains that can't absorb new information.   

Forget trying to correct them.   Focus on getting Gen Z and Y, the newest batch of voters, to the polls in twelve months.   There is a planet to save, and democracy to resuscitate.  Carry chocolates in your pocket, they always come in handy.

Red likes to call others amoral. Red got a tax cut.

Engaged chuckle heads like RedWard and Kiid make up no more than 20% of the population, a chunk with soaring death rates. There are many more who are tuned out. And some who are easy prey to manipulation. The hard core who can almost read, like RedWard and Kiid, are on team red to compensate for their severe inadequacies. They are burning themselves out. That’s why it’s important to reach everyone around them, starting with their nearest and dearest in their families and their homes. You have a great start in this project because they all know first hand at least one major republican who is a major lying asshole piece of shit.

Several tentacles on this horrendously ugly GOP squid thing eating them from the top down.

American women are so lucky...they can carry guns, ready to fire at a moment's notice.

Australian women...not so lucky, they just have to get bashed, no chance for real self defence.

Elderly woman bashed in 'baseball bat' Perth spree

Thieves have gone on a violent rampage across Perth's eastern suburbs, bashing an elderly woman in her home during a car stealing spree.
The thugs are on the run, while their victim is in intensive care with serious injuries.

A gaping hole was left by the violent gang who smashed their way into a Jane Brook home as a mother and her children slept upstairs.

Some acknowledgement you’ve caught up with the topics recent to the discussion, perhaps some kind of segue? Nah. Why bother?

Folks, I will be away for at least the next 12 hours and possibly longer, depending on how a surgery I am having today goes.

Try not to wreck the place with your wild parties, please.

Wow! Best wishes on your procedure. I’m personally convalescing from cervical spinal,fusion.

I literally have a pain in my neck...

[LarryBnDC]

Not one GOP broke ranks.  Will Hurd did not break ranks.  What's weird is:  he's quitting the House and has no electorate to please/appease. 


And yes, Needs, the Irony Meter stays past the red line.

He has to eat once he leaves office...

Nancy Pelosi delivered a message this weekend to Democrats running for president in 2020: Those liberal ideas that fire up the party’s base are a big loser when it comes to beating President Donald Trump.
Proposals pushed by Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders like Medicare for All and a wealth tax play well in liberal enclaves like her own district in San Francisco but won’t sell in the Midwestern states that sent Trump to the White House in 2016, she said.
“What works in San Francisco does not necessarily work in Michigan,”

“Remember November,” she said. “You must win the Electoral College.”

Duh!
