    Although Democrats are called radical left by right, positions have majority support:
    Raise minimum wage
    Fairer taxation
    Immigration reform including path to citizenship
    Common sense gun regulation
    Legal abortion
    Combatting Covid
    Republican platform:
    Tax cuts for the rich
    Outlaw abortion
    No restrictions on guns
    Make it harder to vote
    Elections they don't win are fraudulent.
    Do nothing to stop Covid. Take horse dewormer if you get sick.

    Well, eventually trickle down economics will work.

    You know, maybe we should start labeling the vaccine as "ivermectin" for those fucking morons.

    It's amazing to hear that Biden didn't staff his administration entirely with other 78-year-olds. What was he thinking?

    Must all your assertions be this hyperbolic?

    Are your political beliefs really this oversimplified and binary? It’s no wonder we are still stuck in a two party system when people think politics are this black and white. For as much as you shit on religion you’ve managed to turn politics into a cartoonish battle between good and evil. The stuff of fables.

    He's positioned himself as far away from Trump as politically possible.

    He's been too reasonable if anything.

    Q Congresswoman Lauren Boebert put an "imeach Biden" banner on her web page.
    Ohio senator Rob Portman, a standard chamber of commerce Republican, is retiring. The two Republicans vying for the seat are trying to outdo one another in devotion to twice impeached loser. Josh Mandel is frothing about nonwhite immigrants and lectured the children of Martin Luther King about their father's "real" views. JD Vance endorsed Texas bounty hunter law. When asked if there should be an exception for rape, he called pregnancy from rape an inconvenience. Like your phone ringing when you're on the toilet.

    Had she spelled it correctly, no one would give two shits that she did it. Since she "spelled it wrong", it became news. It's all intentional. They're how stupid people think smart people act.

    What strikes me is that I used to think most politicians were the best and the brightest. But when I see politicians imploring to impeach a President (any President) who has done nothing to be impeached about it makes me then consider how low many of our politicians have become. I just shake my head.

    That's what happens when you pay your leaders shit compared to their peers, and allow them to take bribes.

    It becomes a race to the bottom to see who can extract the most money from the system while maintaining power as long as possible.

    This is by design. That's how our system is set up.

    Pelosi is a lying stack of crap. Joe Manchin and his corporate owned pack of democrats want to kill the reconciliation bill because it would hurt corporate profits over actually helping people.

    If Joe Biden allows Joe Manchin to kill this part of the bill, it will show that Biden is no leader what-so-ever.

    Joe Biden agrees with Manchin. He has a long history of voting as evidence... So it's up to his staff and base to force the issue.

    What can you do when you've only got 48 votes plus Kyrsten Sinema plus Joe Manchin?

    You know, calling a person a lying sack of shit doesn't exactly advance discussion. Just say what you disagree with and we can go from there.
