The GQP Thread: I'm even sick of that fuck's number and, anyway, he's gone (for now)

Multiple abortions? For shame!

And looking at the timeline, there's a non-zero chance one of 'em had some Calgary Ted DNA. His "big donations" came around the time she made a doctors visit....


It's amazing that the anti-abortion, pro-family values representative participated in actions contrary to what she preaches. If it weren't for hypocrisy, GQP candidates wouldn't have ANY platform.
 
If Ted Cruz knocking up Boebert isn’t the best case to allow abortion, then I don’t know what is

Received a new meme on Facebook from one of my "Friends".

It says, "Looking for the fucks I give about Jan 6th after paying 100 bucks to fill my gas tank".

Now convince me America has any shot at surviving. I'll hang up and listen.

The only way we survive is to convince enough people that January 6 is one of the reasons they paid a hundred bucks to fill up their tank. Draw the lines and connect the dots. If we had a government during the trump years that actually cared more about draining the swamp than stealing power maybe we'd be better off today. If more people paid attention and voted for people who would actually work for the people we'd be better off today.

The odds of that are slim and none, and slim is looking at travel websites as we speak.
 

That picture makes me think of things that I should be embarrassed about and would never actually vocalize. What I will vocalize is man-o-man would I love for this to be true and for someone somewhere to release some medical documentation that verifies it. And maybe for a Cruz and Boebart sex tape to see the light of day. The for good measure they could both be so embarrassed and broken down by the bad publicity they could take turns feasting on one of Boebart's many guns.
 
Loudermilk ran a tour of capital on Jan 5 including the tunnels which were photographed by his tour group.
 
I have been reading about the intellectual origins of fascism when it was a 19th century anti-Enlightenment, anti-liberal movement, long before it became associated with racism and even with nationalism. The early proto-fascists were very similar to the Marxists in seeking an "escape from liberalism," and an end to the "debating society on the edge of the abyss" of parliamentary democracy.

Proto-fascism is deliberately and self-consciously irrational. Its thesis is politics and society cannot be legalistic and rational because the later pre-suppose the former and not vice-versa. To be authentically and fully human, there is something beyond law and Enlightenment Reason that binds us as political and social beings. Previously, that was God and Clan. But because we cannot go back. "God is dead and it is we who have killed him," so the only way to go forward but to retain authenticity is to erect something in place of God and Clan. For Clan, we can simply extend to the Tribe -- some "legitimate" subset of the Nation ('Real Murica'). For God, is it a search for some other foundational grounding which justifies itself. Fascists found this in Sovereignty. But they interpreted Sovereignty not as voting, but as the "silent true heart of the people," as expressed in the man strong enough for them to trust him with absolute power.

That's the roots of the cult of Dump, right there. And you can taste the hunger for certainty in people like Sic. Denied black and white meaning in a tolerant, subjective, multicultural world of greys, they strike out in fear and anger to grasp that comfort and well-being of childhood again, by finding the Strongest and hiding under his legs. This is the fundamental cowardice of the Right, even before you add on all the ugliness of their misogyny and racism later.

Before conservatives were bad people, and even before they were ignorant people, they were weak people.

This rings depressingly true. The weakness you refer to seems to be an intellectual laziness, and I don't see how they overcome it. It's too gratifying and self-fulfilling as a plunge into the "American Carnage" they foment and cheer while also loudly condemning.
 
In similar good news, Dane County Circuit Court Judge Frank Remington sanctioned former WI Supreme Court Justice, Michael Gableman, who was hired by the WI republican party to investigate voter fraud in the 2020 election. Remington gave it to Gableman with both barrels and forwarded his decision to the ethics board for possible lawyer discipline. From the decision:

In a ruling against investigator Michael Gableman, Dane County Circuit Judge Frank Remington also forwarded the order to the office that hands down disciplinary actions against attorneys and judges in Wisconsin. Gableman could face additional sanctions that include suspension or revocation of his license to practice law. The written order comes after Remington last week found a defiant Gableman to be in contempt after he refused to answer questions in the courtroom after being subpoenaed to appear. His attorneys tried unsuccessfully to block the subpoena.

Remington, in his order, chided Gableman for what he called his "unprofessional conduct" at the hearing.

"Wisconsin demands more from its attorneys," Remginton wrote. "Gableman’s demeaning conduct has discredited the profession and every other person sworn ‘to commit themselves to live by the constitutional processes of our system,’" he wrote.

His order cites comments Gableman made that were captured by the microphone while the court was in recess where he made sarcastic comments about the judge and attorney for American Oversight, the group suing to get the records.

"The circus Gableman created in the courtroom destroyed any sense of decorum and irreparably damaged the public’s perception of the judicial process," Remington wrote.
