What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

[abates]

Texas AG Ken Paxton admits that if they allowed everyone to vote in Texas, the Republican Party would be screwed.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

They've been saying that for years. The Republicans know they can't win if everyone is allowed to vote fairly. That's why they refuse to allow it.

McConnell Comparing 'African Americans' and 'Americans' Sparks Outrage

Voters of color concerns about voting rights are "misplaced," McConnell said, "as African American voters are voting in as high a percentage as Americans."

McConnell replied. "Because if you look at the statistics, African American voters are voting in just as high a percentage as Americans."

the honesty is almost refreshing.

It really is as stupid as you'd expect.

For example:

Tony Allman- This is a book for the eighth grade on a third grade reading level.

Steven Brady- No, that is incorrect.

Tony Allman- So the 3.0 on the front of the book doesn’t stand for third grade reading?

Steven Brady- No, what you are referring to is the AR number that it is assigned to the book. This is an eighth grade, middle school level book. Not just because of the words but because of the content and the deeper meaning to what is going on in the book.

Tony Allman- Some of this vulgar and inappropriate behavior can be whited out, but because of copyright it is like b-i-t-c-h, they can only white out the i-t-c-h just like the gd word, they have to leave gd. Is that correct?

Scott Bennett- yes sir

Steven Brady- When we see something on television that is a direct quote from an actor or a president, something where it has that inappropriate language, they will blur it out or white out parts of it or they will bleep it.

Tony Allman- I understand all that, but being in the schools, educators and stuff we don’t need to enable or somewhat promote this stuff. It shows people hanging, it shows them killing kids, why does the educational system promote this kind of stuff, it is not wise or healthy.

Frankly, I hope he loses, and loses SEVERELY. The sooner we can course correct, even a little, back towards sanity, the better. I also wonder if he's violating any Michigan election laws with his rhetoric. If he were running for a Federal office, I KNOW he would be.(granted the R next to his name would probably insulate him from any repercussions of said violations anyway)

i guess when most of the younger/more openly fascy part of your base is composed largely of incels, this is saying the quiet part out loud.

Soldano shared a story about how one of his mentors was adopted and learned that his birth mother had been raped by several men in a subway station.

“It kind of like tore out his heart when he found that out, but then he started to really appreciate and understand what his birth mother went through, that she had the courage to deliver him,” Soldano said, adding that his mentor went on to help thousands of people improve their lives.

Jesus.

Ironbite-the Founding Fathers would be leading a charge against the GOP if they had any inkling how bad this was getting.

In censure of Cheney and Kinzinger, RNC calls events of January 6 'legitimate political discourse'

In a resolution formally censuring GOP Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, the Republican National Committee on Friday described the events surrounding the January 6, 2021 insurrection -- which have been at the center of a House probe -- as "legitimate political discourse."

www.cnn.com

 

[wonko the sane?]

Right then, openly treasonous now.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

 

[CoffeeHorse]

The RNC is also going to be funding Cheney's primary challenger, so this is more than just a censure.

 

[Ungnome]

One can hope that even without GOP support, Cheney can win a primary challenge. She's still a Republican, but compared to what the GOP has been putting up as candidates lately, she's practically FDR.

 

[Wheelimus]

Nah, the real fun is in her losing the primary, running as an Independent and splitting the vote so badly a Democrat wins the race.

 

[Pocket]

I wouldn't give her that much credit. Show me even one moderate who's had enough spine to stay in the race after getting primaried. Most of them caved after just seeing that extremist challengers existed.
