1. Continued thanks for your toons. nt

[et tu]

2. sweethearts one and all-

coming out of the woodwork~

[niyad]

3. What a fine collection of specimens.

[TBF]

4. To be fair to wingnut #4, if I were a republican I'd have to binge drink every day. nt

[SergeStorms]

5. Wow. Just.......wow.

The party formerly known as republicans (now Trumpublicans) are really scraping the bottom of the barrel.

MTG, Gaetz, Boebert et al. have paved the way for the scum of the country to step forward to be counted. 🤪

I wish they'd all step backward beneath the rocks they were hiding under.

[TheRickles]

6. In case you didn't believe #1 was real (I had my doubts), here's the link to a video clip:

8. Are they speaking languages "nobody has heard of"?

[SergeStorms]

12. They just babble on and on....

usually the same ridiculous sounds over and over, because they're not clever enough to come up with any decent sounding fake "tongue."

There never were any of these phony "tongues," nor will there ever be any. They just make stuff up because it was mentioned in the bible somewhere and they want to sound like "real" christians must have sounded.

They're freaking loonies, is what they are. 🙄

[erronis]

14. Was actually married to one of these types.

Could be anything anytime if it helped its place in life. And it was many things.

[SergeStorms]

19. I'm sorry...

one moment of your life was wasted on someone like that.

We all make our mistakes, and I know I've surely made my share, of allowing those types of people to suck the goodness out of our hearts. But we learn, and we grow, and we direct our energies to those who honestly deserve them from there on.

You're a wonderful Democrat, and whatever heartache that person may have caused you, you've more than gained in love and respect ever since from those you've helped.

Never let those people wear you down.

26. I saw that clip. I was shocked at how brazen these people are, considering that the founders of this Country

didn't want religion and government to mix, being that so many of them came from Europe where religion and governments were intermixed. Our founders didn't want this in our Country.

[Elessar Zappa]

7. When did Arizona get so many Pentecostal-types?

I used to think that the state was libertarian conservative rather than religious conservative.

[SergeStorms]

13. Notice, there aren't that many.

There must still be a few rocks that remain unturned, I guess. What a bunch of phonies. 🥸

[SWBTATTReg]

27. Maybe they all moved out of Missouri? Where I grew up, Pentecostals were everywhere (Joplin MO).

Then I moved to STLMO, where the city is dominated by Catholics. It was a learning experience for me definitely. I was out for lunch w/ another friend, and we walked by a guy who has the ash mark on his forehead, I didn't know about the ash thing, and I was going to turn around and go tell the guy that he had a little dirt on his head. My friend laughed and No, R, it's Ash Wednesday (or whatever day it was).

So many religions, so many teachings, so much to learn. Almost confusing. My mom raised us to be agnostic, respect everything. My belief is now that so many things are 'too perfect', that I do believe that some higher force is present, which gives me a feeling of reassurance, which during the turbulent times of today, I wonder.

[Elessar Zappa]

28. I tend to take the same view as you.

I grew up Catholic and can still find peace when I need it in the Catholic Mass even though I don’t believe most of it. Luckily, most Catholics around here, including the priest I believe, are liberal. But yeah I tend to think there’s a higher power but other than that I don’t know any specifics lol.

[Wednesdays]

9. Just another week in the GOP. nt

[Hermit-The-Prog]

10. What's lower than a Republican? Nothing -- the Universe has limits.

[Uncle Joe]

11. So which one do you believe *rump will choose as a running mate?

Thanks for the thread EarlG.

[Ford_Prefect]

15. Rogues' gallery of the GOP candidates for post-Johnson Speaker of the House. They seem eminently qualified for the job.

[twodogsbarking]

16. Are their pictures in post offices? Best check.

[PatSeg]

17. Wow, that's a whole lot of nuttery for one week!

[Cha]

18. Thanks.. I didn't know Palma Got Fired for speaking

her "truth". She has "nothing to defend".

[malaise]

20. Effin

Deplorables

[PatrickforB]

21. I really appreciate these, Earl.

The biggest challenge here is deciding who among them is the worst.

George Riley is the grossest.

But this Ormes - he kind of reminds me of Julius Streicher, who was a total thug in Hitler's Nazi Germany, and always carried a whip.

On a cheerful note, though, I just watched Nicolle Wallace on MSNBC. She had Chasten Buddigeig on - what an excellent surrogate he is! Also she showed Kamala Harris speaking to a group of people in AZ and she had them going.

[dalton99a]

22. Fucking creeps

[lpbk2713]

23. Riley sounds like a class act.

Goppers probably admire him for his leadership qualities.

[Martin68]

24. A bottomless source of vile Americans.

[czarjak]

25. What-A-Whacky-Week

Wholly Crap!
