SodomInsane 11/08/22 10:30:34 AM #1:	https://www.sltrib.com/opinion/commentary/2022/11/07/maureen-dowd-be-ready-marjorie/ Are we ready for our new Republican overlords? Are we ready for an empowered Marjorie Taylor Greene? Are we ready for a pumped-up, pistol-packing Lauren Boebert? How many AR-15s do you think Jesus would have had? Boebert asked a crowd at a Christian campaign event in June. Im going with none, honestly, but her answer was, Well, he didnt have enough to keep his government from killing him. The Denver Post pleaded, We beg voters in western and southern Colorado not to give Rep. Lauren Boebert their vote. The freshman representative has recently been predicting happily that were in the end times, the last of the last days. If Boebert is in charge, we may want to be in the end times. Im feeling not so Rapturous about the prospect. And then theres the future first female president, Kari Lake, who lulls you into believing, with her mellifluous voice, statements that seem to emanate from Lucifer. Shes dangerous because, like Donald Trump, she has real skills from her years in TV. And she really believes this stuff, unlike Trump and Kevin McCarthy, who are faking it. Speaking of Paradise Lost, how about Ron DeSantis? The governor of Florida, whos running for a second term, is airing an ad that suggests that he was literally anointed by God to fight Democrats. God almighty, thats some high-level endorsement. Much to our national shame, it looks like these over-the-top and way, way, way out of the mainstream Republicans and the formerly normie and now creepy Republicans who have bent the knee to the wackos out of political expediency are going to be running the House, maybe the Senate and certainly some states, perhaps even some that Joe Biden won two years ago. And it looks as if McCarthy will finally realize his goal of becoming speaker, but when he speaks, it will be Greene, Jim Jordan and Boebert doing the spewing. It will be like the devil growling through Linda Blair in The Exorcist except it will be our heads spinning. Welcome to a rogues gallery of crazy: Clay Higgins, whos spouting conspiracy theories about Paul Pelosi, wants to run the House Homeland Security Committee; Paul Gosar, whose own family has begged Arizonans to eject him from Congress, will be persona grata in the new majority. In North Carolina, Bo Hines, a Republican candidate for the House, wants community panels to decide whether rape victims are able to get abortions or not. Hes building on Dr. Ozs dictum that local politicians should help make that call. Even Oprah turned on her creation, Dr. Odd. Im not ready for this. I dont know what happened to the Dems candidates that led to this possibility. --- http://i.imgur.com/GZUKvFD.gif <cite>SodomInsane posted [p:969277996] in Be ready f...

ShotWaifu 11/08/22 1:27:42 PM #41:	Democrats run to make extra profits Republicans run to have all the power Do not be mistaken. Democrats do not fear a loss nearly a quarter as much as republicans do. In fact, they still gain from it. This is why I hope the system itself just burns down. Fuck conservatism, neoliberalism, and oligarchs. We desperately need a progressive party to take over for the waste of the democrat party and then just attack the republican party head-on in every election. <cite>ShotWaifu posted [p:969281792] in Be ready f...

RchHomieQuanChi 11/08/22 2:11:26 PM #48:	[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Exactly. I think plenty of non-voters clearly realize that the right has gone off the deep end, but the general impression I get is that they don't think Dems will actually do (or even CAN do) enough to stop it so why bother. You have to convince these people that it's worth it for them to stand in line for potentially hours (cause certain states, like mine, have near-impossibly strict restrictions for mail-in ballots and dropboxes hours away) for an outcome that they realistically don't have much control over. And even if the side they pick DOES win, let's be honest...Democrats have not done a great job of addressing and implementing the things that people actually want. Like yes, protecting democracy is extremely important but let's be honest and admit...American democracy is kind of a farce in the first place and always will be so long as we have a 2-party system, first-past-the-post voting and corporate money heavily influencing elections. --- I have nothing else to say <cite>RchHomieQuanChi posted [p:969282748] in Be ready f...
