His name is Taco Ockerse. He did a cover of Puttin' on the Ritz in the 80s. That's it, that's the whole joke. sigh I'll never get those 5 minutes back.

Same way "Joe the Plumber", Kim Davis, Kyle Rittenhouse, etc. GOP elevates their story to the national spotlight to "prove their point" and then leaves them out to dry after their 15 minutes of fame have been used up.

Ah, Henderson. You'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Good point

This is very interesting. With all the crowd funding methods, would it be theoretically possible to put something like this together? Granted, the person has to accept, but imagine being able to pay a politician to just disappear.

Republicans: The government needs to stop trying to be our babysitter

Also Republicans: this

As a person

I too am a person and totally not an AI driven bot fellow human.

Fuck our grandparents, they tilled the soil that grew this hate. It's our children we should think of... how would they feel about what we're doing about this problem.

What I mean is don't listen to anyone who says "polls show". Polls have been weaponized by every media outlet to back up whatever story they're trying to relay.

Polls are only good for political strategists and only for forming actionable strategies. They don't capture true popular feelings about any subjects and completely eliminate room for subtleties and nuance in the debate.

For example, why is she polling lower than Biden? Could it be because the VP role is traditionally one of someone who works in the background, so the general public has very little reason to think about her too often? How many times is she mentioned in headlines (successes or failures) compared to Biden and Trump? Who was polled and who did the polling - was there any accountability for bias one way or the other?

Take all polls with a huge grain of salt.

Humanity would absolutely be the abuser in this toxic relationship

Polls don't mean jack shit. They're basically the "mood ring" of the political world.

And yet she still has to state the obvious for the oblivious

That's such a great feeling. I did the same with our cat when we got her as a kitten. She doesn't climb on my shoulders anymore, but she prefers my lap over the others in the house.

They were just keeping with the strong tradition established by the Greeks and Romans of gods that rape everyone and everything.

That's an intriguing story. I don't think that makes him a gangster. More like something a common thief would do. That sounds like right out of a playbook of common street urchins in Paris or eastern Asia.

Glad the state department told Kraft to shove it. Could you imagine an international standoff over a fucking billionaire's ring.

Thanks for sharing that, I hadn't heard this story before. I wonder if there are other examples of people putting pony boy in his place.

They can be involved. No one is taking their rights to vote away. You can't run for president until 35. You can't be a congressman until 25. No one says it denies younger folks their representation. Let older folks vote for who best represents their ideology and values, but it's time for upper limits for very obvious reasons.
