Yeah, his upside here is Kevin Federline. 

Imagine if she actually aspired to be Brittany Speers and being in Congress and a servant of the people was her safety job?

Like me, his views on collective security, the rule of Law, and limited government remain his views.  The party has changed.  The democrats are gooder on the first two but not the last. 

I'd argue they're better on limited government as well.

The government shutdowns have got to stop.   The correct answer is to actually shut down the government next time and not do ANYTHING until the budget is approved.   No SS checks.  No government payment to keep hospitals in rural america open.  No F-22s flying over the Taiwan strait.  No missile silos manned.  No Post Offices in bumflurg, redstate USA.  NADA.  The government is too big you say?  

[romad1]

Yeah, this isn't anything like a good take

It's ironic that they say it's mostly the older generation that supports the GOP, but the Dems never have the heart to cut off SS payments. If they did it would be over in 5 min.

Does Fetterman go on the Senate Floor and talk about how people who wear hoodies are bad and we need to keep them out of public life and not let our libraries and schools refer to them?

I don't care what Boebert does in a theatre.  It's just that the hypocrisy is hilarious.  

[pfife]

I don't understand why we shouldn't care that she was vaping in the theater - that's some bull**** behavior from a purported leader.

Is it expected behavior from a paid escort?

I assume that is illegal, so I guess we should care even though political leaders don't seem to care about following laws much.

Fetterman should not be dressing like a homeless dude who just raided the Goodwill dumpster.  I get it, I don't feel comfortable all dressed up either, but it is just unacceptable this dude is walking around the halls of Congress looking like that.

To me, the difference is that the way Fetterman dresses is not a hypocritical betrayal of the way one purports to govern. It merely offends sensibilities. If I’m with the guy, I could live with that.

Right. It’s like a pro life member of congress having or paying for an abortion compared to a member of congress who wants to wear a hat.  The two things are not comparable and it’s just silly for Silver to do such a thing. That guy has lost his marbles. 

[MIguy]

Taking everything else out of the equation and talking only about Fetterman, nobody should be okay with him dressing like a slob in Congress.  Have a little damn respect for the office you hold.  

[pfife]

I get what you're saying but honestly the senate really sucks and doesn't deserve a whole ton of respect.

I wish she'd wear that dress on the floor of the House.

I get what you're saying but I feel the same way about folks who show up at the airport dressed like they've just finished yard work. Practically no one shows any decorum any more.

Why should Fetterman be any different.

And they’re the better of the two houses, by a lot.

Both can be right here.

I've been cutting way back on twitter, and that account and Three Year Letterman are the ones I miss the most.    

It is also very much noticeable and awesome how much less I hear about nazi musk

[MIguy]

Of course the conspiracy theorists are already saying this is all a ploy by the Feds to make it look like Epps isn't one of them.
