I'm not getting in the gutter with you to discuss your disgusting post

Oh so the guy who goes around calling people "pedophiles" is accusing someone else of "getting in the gutter"??
WTF?!

Should I call you Mr. Pot or Mr. Kettle??

Since you're a Deadhead, do you wanna be called Mr. Pot? 🤣🤣🤣

Now that Warren is the frontrunner,
interesting that so many say she's
unlikable and a phony and it will
cost her the election. Not to mention
she wants to raise taxes thru the
roof to pay for all the free crap
from the govt.

Saw a black radio host say she is
very unpopular among blacks
because they know she gamed
the system to get a job at Harvard
by pretending to be a minority,
Blacks don't like that, as you might
imagine. And she'll be 72 in 2021,
but an attractive 72. Shudder..
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Why on earth would a woman run in such an election against her own husband?

That Michelle polls so well shows the problems with the current Dem field. I really never understood the fascination with thinking a spouse of a pol is qualified for the same job. As if we are a monarchy or something.

Just as I don't care who Trump had sex with, or Bill Clinton. I don't think it is any of our business who Katie Hills has sex with and don't think she should resign over her ex's revenge porn. She should have at least tried to continue her term and see if there were such an uproar that she couldn't perform her duties. I think it's chicken**** to quit just because of photo's being exposed. Don't make it easy for them.

She should quit if it prevents her from doing her job, not just because she is embarrassed.

There are way too many sordid details outside of the main issue...did she do things that were against the rules? if she did not, she should have fought for her seat.

What about the allegations of actual violations of rules?

I don't care who she has sex with either, unless that type of relationship is not within the rules.

For some reason she doesn't think it's worth it. Resigning means, she doens't need to bother with an explantion.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

If she has done something illegal, resigning may or may not stop the process of investigation and possible actions.

Her sexuality is not the question.
