Worth reading, its a list of quotes by 17 current GOP senators about NOT voting for SC in an election year  (its a dumb precedent, but this GOP invented it now wants to put the toothpaste in the bottle less than 4 years later)

BTW, I'm not so sure Murkowski  & Collins will be on board. I actually thought of this on my own last night, then saw it on the news today too. Romney has little to lose too, as he's old & not really looking for much from government politics, other than possibly doing a little bit of the right thing. Would love to see this blow up in  McConnells turtle  face. Would really love to see a major turn in KY polling and him start to slip & get really scared.

Let me reiterate since it wasn’t accepted the first time - if you bitched that Obama didn’t get to force the Republican Senate to accept his replacement of Scalia, you’re a complete fraud if you demand Republicans wait now.

If you supported the Biden rule in 2016, but now want to ignore it for political expediency, you’re a fraud.

If you want the filibuster repealed and the court packed, you lack any principles or convictions, and just desire power.

Yeah, fuck fairness and equality to all.  This is like saying 'If you believe  George Floyd should be a live & free then you believe the cop who sat on his neck for 9 minutes should be alive & free'.


McConnells one of the worst things to happen to US Politics ever. Screw Rocky & this dumb alias account, can we ban this fraud for stupidity?!

btw his worst moment, aside from any covid talk, was his dumfounded healthcare bill claimm Kayleigh McEnhenney tried to even respond to a question about it saying ppl are working on it, when asked for names, she wouldnt answer. When pressed for names, her response was 'Come work for the white house and find out'


Yeah, uhm, ok. So there is no healthcare plan at all. The guy lied about it. He's 75 years old and basically the dumb kid in school who didnt do his homework.

He hates Obama so much its almost sad to watch.

But can anyone explain how Trump’s foreign policy isn’t a smashing success?

One downside I find in that, is that the majority of his supporters voted for Bush/Cheney.  So they're sitting at home, rooting trump on, rah rah rah!!

Then suddenly, "George Bush got us into a 20 year mess!" and whoa, wait a second there fella, I voted for him.  Know your audience. It'd be like a new coach coming in and bashing a much loved coach who never won a championship (Don Shula in Miami, Jerry Sloan of Utah Jazz) etc. I wouldn't go mocking them yet trump seems to borderline mock Bush, again, the concern should be 'Are we mocking the same person my supporters voted for'. Will that be a slight turnoff.

Yeah I think AZ has been close to deemed a loss for trump.  Again, anything can happen but its been leaning pretty blue for some time.

The Fortus interview was pretty good.... essentially admitted that new GNR wasn't a real band....the so called "haters" had been mocked for years saying the same thing.

I think Nu Gnr or whatever stopped being a band when they never followed up OMG in 99 or whatever.  That, to me, was kinda the end of Guns. You could maybe make a case for 06-07 with Robin & touring, Hammerstein etc. But to me, that became almost a rehash, or at least, it became it once Ashba & Bumblefoot were onstage at the same time. CD was ok, but it failed to live up to 17 years of hype.

I don't view Clowney as much of a difference maker. Makes some sacks & stops now & then, I wouldn't say he takes plays off, but I don't think he dominates like some of the greats do. Again, he'll give you 10-12 sacks a season or whatever, but he's just iso out there, him then 10 seperate people on a team.

He died on Jackie Robinson day too after playing him in “42”. I didn’t know much about him but I did see that movie and he did a great job. Sad indeed. 43 is way too young. I’m almost there myself.

Former NBA star Clifford Robinson died too. He helped put UConn on the map back in 1988 and I’ve been a huge fan ever since. A rough last 24 hours.

I realize your post is 12 days old but yeah I remember Cliff Robinson, not in college really as I was young & didn't follow much back then, but he was a good player, versatile for a big man. Had some great years in Portland.

Didn't know Boseman was in Da 5 Bloods, geez, he really must've worked up to the end. I wanna watch Black Panther.  They should make it more like James Bond and come out with them periodically, maybe even insert a new actor in each installment. Sounds crazy but view it more like James Bond rather than a Trilogy.
