"...while other European powers such as France and Portugal waged costly and unsuccessful wars to keep their empires intact, Britain generally adopted a policy of peaceful disengagement from its colonies..." ~Judith Brown - The Twentieth Century, The Oxford History of the British Empire Volume IV 1998

On edit: They also shot at peaceful protests in India too.

(8,201 posts)Some people just can't see past the "R" after a person they could vote for.
Any "R" person is better than any "D" person, right?
Some dumb voters are really dumb!
Democracy dies in the dark world of dumbness.

(42,492 posts)I'm not even sure how many whites will vote for Walker for "white supremacy." They just want to control the Senate and own the libs. If this is what they have to do, and apparently they believe that it is, then they're happy.
Any Black Georgians who plan to vote for Walker over Raphael Warnock - should really take stock in their own lives.

Icanthinkformyself
(428 posts)let's not forget the 'own the libs' factor. If Walker is elected (I shudder at the thought) Republicans will use it as a bludgeon against Democrats anytime their racism, anti-Semitism and general bigotry is pointed out. A vote for Walker allows racists to fell better about their racism.

(15,532 posts)Herschel is an ejaculating mess who is everything a man should NOT be. Violent, abusive, children fathered by different women because he's too irresponsible to use a condom, and pays for an abortion for this woman, who also has another child by him.
It is sad to me that a whole segment of the population cares more about 'owning the libs' than about actually electing people who will govern well.
My hope is that the republic will hold because women are galvanized around the Dobbs decision. Because if we lose these midterms, there might never be another election after 2024 when they install a Republican in the WH.
Mr.Bill
(24,906 posts)and explain that even the republicans are making fun of him and insulting him. And it will get worse even if he's elected. Make him realize that the only way out of this mess with any dignity and reputation left is for him to resign from the race.
I wonder if he would listen to someone like Jim Brown, who has certainly had his ups and downs.
Warpy
(114,695 posts)Truth stings like a scorpion.
Georgia bigots obviously think Warnock won only because of his race, so they dug up a black man to run against him.
Oops.

(6,908 posts)you tell that to the pearl clutching old white ladies in Georgia and they will vote for him even harder just out of spite.
