      Remember when Obama deported more people than Bush (or Trump), and bombed 8 countries, and then democrats won all elections forever because all the moderate republicans started voting democrat?

      Dems can spill rivers of blood. Republicans will still win the hogs by promising to double it.

        Remember when Obummer did exactly what the GOP wanted and then the Georgia Ag sector crashed because there were no undocumented farm workers for the harvest and America runs on ag workers paid starvation wages off the books?

        I would love to pick through that man’s brain to try to figure out what the fuck he was ever thinking.

          West Wing reruns mostly.

          If the American People see the democrats trying to compromise with the republicans by giving them half the budget (even though Dems have a super majority), the republicans will be compelled by their better nature to reciprocate. And if they don’t, surely the American people will vote for the Dems for being so magnanimous.

          This was reflected in most of his speeches and press ops.

          Instead of “Here’s how we’re gonna help you”, his healthcare speech was “Skin in the game! This is not a handout, fuck those welfare queens, we’re gonna help people get skin in the game! so they can buy their own healthcare on a free market”.

          Instead of “Beating the shit out of a black dude for standing in his front yard is bad”, they had the both sides beer, where the cop who beat this guy and arrested him in front of his family and neighbors got to sit down and have one(1) beer with his victim.

          etc

    Yes, that’s what gets on my nerves about Republicans. They only pretend to be evil. When the time comes to do evil they walk away and show extreme hypocrisy.

      What I love about this situation is that the dems are screaming that fascism is on the rise in America!

    The supreme irony of my career: During the 2022 campaign, the GOP bludgeoned me as an anti-Nazi with a hard-on for not being a deranged Hitlerite. Now I’m here in the Senate demanding we do Nazism and they won’t take yes for an answer. Who’s Hitler now, Senate Republicans?

      Eye of the Tiger - his theme song starts playing. He enters from stage right in blue and white sweats with a big Star of David on his chest. He reaches the mic, waits a beat, and he pushes a small button he has been holding in his hand that makes his Israeli flag cape unfurl. The music stops and he says “Are ya triggered?..”

    anakin-padme-2 with the demon-craps racing to the right of the re-puke-lickans i’m sure the lib VOOTERS will finally come to their senses that these parties do not serve the people, right?

    anakin-padme-1 come to their senses that the republicans are now the lesser evil?

    anakin-padme-4 …

    Let me just address his wife real quick:
    Listen. Sweetie. You can find a tall guy who isnt racist. It’s possible. They exist. I get the appeal, I do, but you’ve got to have some standards.
