Every elected Democrat should open with this statement every time they step in front of a camera:

"The REPUBLICAN MAJORITY could pass this bill & RE-OPEN THE GOVT on their own without even one vote from a Democrat simply by waiving the 60-vote requirement, as they've done so many times recently."

If judges can refuse to officiate gay weddings, gay defendants should be able to refuse to be heard by those judges. If they can’t be compelled to perform the most heteronormative of functions, why would anyone believe they are capable of putting their biases aside for something with higher stakes?

Most would call it a rhino, but names are so arbitrary, don't you think?

I don't know about Harry S. Truman in the top ten. He gave approval of two nuclear bombings at the same time. Why not just one and see if Japan surrenders?

Historians Don't Think a US Civil War Is Likelyβ€”but They're Still Nervous β€œThe fabric of what binds America together at this point is basically on its final thread,” one source tells WIRED.

Good?/ Frightening to know I am not the only one wondering where all this lawlessness and violence will lead. Definitely worth a read, and so are the comments: tinyurl.com/CivilWarChan...

We need to get the names, and shame them. They cannot remain nameless - let's learn who these spineless cowards are

It is my sacred patriotic duty to protect this country from fascist takeover by getting ice cream. Any questions?

Time for a new Dem leadership. These historic times demand clearheaded fighters, and not old people writing strongly worded letters. Grow a ball!
