Thank you for making me laugh so hard I nearly fell out of my chair! Only you seem to be able to spin the news in such a positive way to bring back the hope we’ve been missing. See you all at the polls!

By his logic, abstinence would be murder because it prevents potential fertilization.

I started watching the Handmaids tale. Trying to understand what all the hubba baloo is about. Horrifying show. In reality though I am sort of beginning to feel that to Republican men the only value of women is in their ability to birth children. And so if a women can’t deliver a viable infant for whatever reason she may as well die as her life has no value. That is how I am feeling as a woman.

How many of these creeps got money from the Democratic Party in their primary battle? You heard about this, right? The DNC backed fringe Republicans, judging them easier to defeat in the general election.

You may be right that it's the dumbest thing, or maybe not. Michael, by asserting that these little horrors are going to lose votes for the Trumpublicans, is in effect saying that the DNC strategy was effective. We'll see, we can only hope.

But I want point something out. I don't believe that ANY if these DNC-supported ads ever endorsed any of these lunatics. On the contrary, they put out the Democratic line that these lunatics are "too conservative, too extreme, too Trumpian" to be elected to office. In other words, they simply told the truth. The ads can even be re-used in the general election campaign. So there is a certain "claim to innocence" that the DNC can stand on. That said, by issuing those ads in the context of a Trumpublican primary, they were clearly engaged in "Ratf**king Lite". Still, I don't think it is sleazy or necessarily "wrong" to speak the truth about some lunatic. My only regret will be if it doesn't work. I can see that folks could have different views of this, but that is my view.

Thanx for the encouragement to solder on, helping us keep clarity. You are truly a given to us all and will keep sharing, posting, etc. Eventually the 99% will win, if we keep on track, doing whatever we can. Those who live in the NW, The King County Bus Shelter Program invites cultural education works, any media, and MoveOn.org invites volunteers to video, photo documentaries. How ever we can help get the truth out there. There's only one race the human race, so then its about cultural, gender, etc., hate, The most important thing is to vote!

Admitting first thought, great, more feckless.. but ok thought a little Moore 😉

Yes, now I agree 🙏 Better to look ahead knowing we are on the right side, ignoring the drunk uncle as a dumb ass and irrational 🍻🍺🥴🍺🍻

STILL we better act before he sobers up.
