Pete Buttigieg is really good at pwning Fox News with their gotcha questions.

He continues to impress me, I can see him being a future President.

Also, my view on this issue is rapidly changing, when it was first described people said that protestors were inside the restaurant causing a scene. The reality is it was a few people standing on a public sidewalk with signs, perfectly legal. Another example of how initial reports tried to make things sound far more dramatic than they really are.

Except that tactic was invented by conservatives. Look at the history of abortion in the U.S. , routine protests by conservatives going back decades, and not to public figures, to Doctors that work there, and patients who try to go, there are sites where they even publish names and addresses for harassment.

Go even further back when people were debating segregation, and the constant harassment African American families who were assigned to white schools experienced (in some cases so bad that the literal Army had to be brought to towns to provide escorts -especially when local governors refused to help or in some cases used State police to actively attempt to stop it-).

Or more recently when an insurrection was attempted, and the then President even attempted to assist with the hanging of the Vice President when he would refuse to not certify the election.

(This is about as disturbing of an organization that you can find in America, featuring a writing titled, "In Defense of Others:
A Biblical Analysis and Apologetic on the Use of Force to Save Human Life", also they are one of the largest clinic bombers, total terrorist organization, possibly more dangerous than Al Queda). Warning, this is a very disturbing website where they gloat at the Doctors they have killed and praise the people incarnated for killing them. But, its worth viewing to know how the right views casual violence.


The point is, the right specialized in terror and harassment, and its comical to say only the Democrats engage or even that they are the largest problem (not by far -even if you view standing on the sidewalk outside of a restaurant as a problem-......_


Wasn’t the Ku Klux Klan guy from WV who became a Senator a…Democrat?

George Wallace? Democrat

Democrat hands are not clean either. Oh yeah…the parties changed. Not as much as Dems would like to think…a lot of the same people stayed Dems all their lives. One was a hero of our President!



Yes, lots of racist Democrats, that is why I said conservative not Republican.

Name one
We call out bad behavior
Al Franken lost his job
It's Republicans that can't call out bad behavior due to the cult of Trump

This is my favorite flavor of RonC post.

He makes an argument he knows is BS. Refutes himself in his own post. And then pretends like no one can point out the flawed argument he just made.

He does it all the time when he criticizes Dems for something that also occurred under Donny’s watch. “I know Donny did this too but you can’t point that out because he isn’t president anymore!”

Not "local" governors. DEMOCRAT governors.

Yes, like I said above lots of racist Democrats, especially pre-1970. But, lots of racist Republicans as well. What matters today is that virtually every racist is a Republican.

You can be a democrat and be socially conservative (especially back then).... That is why I said conservatives in the above post.

But, what really matters is social conservatives tend to be the ones who inflict the most violence. And, this is obviously because of religion. Even honest Republicans do not dispute this. When you view your spirituality as being attacked, that is the most important thing to religious people, and they tend to lash out...

Uh, not at all. Democrats are the ones who say minorities are not intelligent enough to get an ID to vote. Democrats are the ones who say they need special preferences to compete with whites. Democrats are the ones who are in favor of colleges discriminating based on skin color. And Democrats praised a former KKK senator of theirs in the 2000s.

Republicans do none of this.

Not really. BLM, ANTIFA, and now the pro-abortionists are the ones inflicting violence. Conservatives go on about their life.

Oh shut up with your gaslighting nonsense.

Interesting story on money influence on supremes picked as so forth from proPublica

“An elderly, ultra-secretive Chicago businessman has given the largest known donation to a political advocacy group in U.S. history — worth $1.6 billion — and the recipient is one of the prime architects of conservatives’ efforts to reshape the American judicial system, including the Supreme Court.

Through a series of opaque transactions over the past two years, Barre Seid, a 90-year-old manufacturing magnate, gave the massive sum to a nonprofit run by Leonard Leo, who co-chairs the conservative legal group the Federalist Society.

The donation was first reported by The New York Times on Monday. The Lever and ProPublica confirmed the information from documents received independently by the news organizations.
Our reporting sheds additional light on how the two men, one a judicial kingmaker and the other a mysterious but prolific donor to conservative causes, came together to create a political war chest that will likely supercharge efforts to further shift American politics to the right.

Well it looks like they found the Supreme Court leaker.
Alito

Makes total sense he was the latest leaker
Total religious nut

Remember when kenarman said it was Justice Jackson (before she was a Justice and even had access to the decision)?

When the righties blame the left for something, they are ALWAYS telling on themselves.
