[tanyev]

1. Bam! That's awesome.

[Funtatlaguy]

2. I hate her more than you can imagine

[Duppers]

12. In a split sec look

I thought that you had written "I hate her more than mange."

But then I realized, she is mange, a mangie old witch.

[Funtatlaguy]

13. She is a horrible human being. Worse than Trump even.

[paleotn]

34. The wicked witch of Williamson county.

[calimary]

18. Take a number.

[volstork]

22. Oh, I bet I can give you a run

for your money on that!

She's "my" "senator."

[Funtatlaguy]

25. Thats my birth state. So, she embarasses me too. Please vote her out next time.

[volstork]

31. Tried to this time.

Thought Bredesen could have done much better than he did.

[Funtatlaguy]

32. His waffling on the SCOTUS thing probably didn't help.

[volstork]

33. Agreed.

That was a stupid mis-step.

[StarfishSaver]

3. Aw HAAIL No!

[bucolic_frolic]

4. re: Anti-American Republican ...... you have coined a new term for them

Very insightful. Very.

[RAB910]

6. While many understand that I am redundant, I take the time to frequently use that term

I figure the more of us that repeat the term anti-American Republican the more it will stick.

Of course, sometimes I am called out on the use of the term.

Then I respond by listing all the American groups Republicans hate:

1) Muslims
2) brown-skinned people
3) Democrats
4) Liberals
5) Socialists
6) anyone in the LGBT community
7) the poor
8) the working class
9) Jews
10) Feminists
11) Aethistists
12) Journalists
13) Scientists
14) immigrants
15) and so on

So factually it's correct to call them anti-American because they are opposed to over half of our Country

[bucolic_frolic]

11. a cookie-cutter program! print up business cards /nt

[Funtatlaguy]

14. Bingo, my friend. And SOME so-called liberals secretly don't like some of those listed.

[jayschool2013]

15. A couple more

Veterans who speak their mind.
Patriots, in general.

[RAB910]

17. yeah, one of these days I am going to create a definitive list

[not fooled]

26. One more

Federal civil servants.

[meow2u3]

20. Let me sum this up

Republicans hate anyone who isn't:

- white
- fundie Xtian
- right wing
- rich
- straight (or closeted)
- male

etc.

[RAB910]

24. pretty much

[Hermit-The-Prog]

5. she and others need reminding of bills Moscow Mitch has buried

Every time a Repugnant hints at Democrats not doing enough, they should be reminded of the cowardly Rs allowing Moscow Mitch to sit on over 300 bills passed by the House.

[crickets]

29. Excellent point.

Pascrell's righteous burn was a step in the right direction, though.

[PatSeg]

7. The do nothing party in congress

is the republican party. It is the republicans who have been known for endless, go nowhere hearings and investigations. Guess they assume the Democrats are as well, though its more likely just a typical GOP diversion.

[SpankMe]

8. I love these hypocrisy-revealing zingers. I wish there were more. n/t

[Traildogbob]

9. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha

She HAS been getting things done. Voted 3 times to NOT protect the security of our elections. Does NOT want to protect from Russian interference, WHY, because she is one of many that received millions from Russian oligarchs. WHO is it that is unAmerican? Traitorous beeeatch!

[Generic Brad]

35. Hey, that's my senator you're name calling

Do it again.

[RightiswrongTn]

10. Dumb ho spent 7,000,000 bucks..

Investigating a debunked video claiming planned Parenthood sold baby parts. People went to jail over the fake video. Do you think that slowed MushMouth Marsha down. Hail no lol. What a fake assed piece of shit. Screw her!!!

[flibbitygiblets]

28. Dumb ho?

The "dumb ho" part is uncalled for on a progressive site, IMO.

[Sgent]

40. Gotta disagree

dumb is just fine....

Ho I could live without.

[flibbitygiblets]

45. Thanks, and I agree the "dumb" part applies. "Ho" is slang for "whore" and that's misogynistic

Women have the right to sexual freedom without being labeled or shamed. In a time when women are being so maligned (acceptance of trump's "pussy grabbing" by so many of his followers, the Kavanaugh debacle and maligning of Ms. Blasey-Ford for having the temerity to speak out, "lock her up" is just fine, but "lock him up" is met with clutched pearls (by Republicans at least), and of course the attacks on reproductive rights around the country...

can we please not just call women whores? Is that really too much to ask?

[McKim]

42. Yes!!!!!

Yes!!!! The lack of civility on this site is discouraging to any visitor. Aren’t we above cheap shots and potty mouth stuff, name calling cheapens us and hurts our party! The venting may feel good for a while but it does us long term damage.

[NoMoreRepugs]

44. "Dumb Ho" is fine with me - I prefer words like LIAR as apposed to

"someone misspoke the facts." Civility with Rethuglicans left the building a couple of decades ago.

[peggysue2]

16. Nice smackdown!

[Marcuse]

19. She's been burned before:

[BlancheSplanchnik]

30. Ohhh, I thought she was that cross-eyed idiot.

Guess I’m thinking of someone else.

[greyl]

46. Debbie Lesko? nt

[BlancheSplanchnik]

47. No, I googled her...she's not who I'm thinking of.

The one I’m picturing is older than them, and rather plain. If I may say such a thing.

[oldsoftie]

43. I kinda miss 80s hair......

[MarcA]

21. Another of the useless,narcissistic cons that shouldn't be in a democratic society n/t

[NellieStarbuck]

23. As a native Tennesseean . . .

. . . I've been horrified that this idiot had ascended to the House of Representatives and brought shame on my old home state with her displays of jackassery. The mere fact that this braying dumbass is now an actual United States Senator is something that would have been unthinkable a generation ago. But such is the sorry state of the world we now live in.

[paleotn]

37. I hear you.

I thought the ole home state would come to it's senses and send Bredesen to the Senate. He's a good man.

[samnsara]

27. gonna follow him for sure!!

[spanone]

36. Marsha's working on the important issues for America...

Campaign Fact-Check: Marsha Blackburn Says She Stopped Nonexistent Sale of ‘Baby Body Parts’ (Updated)

Twitter has reversed its decision on refusing to run Blackburn’s misleading message as a promoted tweet, Politico reports.

U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), a candidate for U.S. Senate, claimed in a campaign video that she “stopped the sale of baby body parts”—a statement that caused Twitter to refuse to run the video as a promoted Tweet. Blackburn’s claim is not only, as Twitter found, “inflammatory.” It’s completely false.

The Associated Press on Monday reported that Twitter blocked an ad submitted for paid promotion by Blackburn’s Senate campaign. The video contained what Twitter “deemed an inflammatory statement that is likely to evoke a strong negative reaction,” a representative from the social media site reportedly told the campaign.

Campaign spokesperson Andrea Bozek confirmed the story by phone on Monday. She said the campaign received news of the decision from Twitter that morning.
