(22,381 posts)How many times has Gym Jordan and the MTG-panzee been humiliated, yet still they persist? They're stupid, mentally deranged or both. Embarrassment won't stop them one bit. The only solution short of "nuking them from orbit" is to vote them out and keep them out.

(1,445 posts)people cry and stressing them out. Hardly anyone looked at them for any amount of time.
Demanding they resign and getting a newspaper Ad might get their attention but still not totally work.
Voting them out I agree.

(25,215 posts)Bunch of nutjobs. I know one of the founders personally because we served on a community counsel together and one of my kids graduated high school with her son. They all need serious psychiatric care. I am not joking about that. The ones I know do not have a firm grasp on reality at all.

school board/library meetings.
We shouldn't bring public education down to their level of fear, racism and personal phobias.
I completely agree with the father in this clip about the concerned parents sending their own kids to christian schools or homeschooling them.
Changing public education to conform to their small minded beliefs is handicapping the kids for LIFE, not preparing them for a future in the real world.
And I really hate our tax dollars being used in that way!

(14,707 posts)Being kind of like professional observers. They know more about trends, and behaviours than most. And they're not afraid to call out bad behaviour, even if its just for a laugh.
But it seems like Democrats are even more tightly wound than Republicans when it comes to allowing an "outsider" to take the reigns of the party. Every cycle Sanders is vilified for being an outsider, and he's been working with them for like 40 years!
This is one of the most threatening thing to the Democratic party. That the elders in the establishment just cannot release their grasp and allow a fresh new face full of progressive ideas to lead the party into the 21st century. At least not in a sudden dramatic way like Biden stepping aside and Jon running. Which if done, would revolutionize, and reinvigorate the party and country for the best for decades. As R's wouldn't have anyone near as popular, or as smart or witty.
I don't care anymore about any new President having to have years and years in the Washington bubble, learning all the hidden rules and handshakes, before being eligible. There are plenty of others in those positions that could be his advisors. All that matters is that the head honcho is smart, kind, empathetic, and abides by the law.

(4,552 posts)They came because of the push back against these wackos.
The books are in a data base. Why not just flag the books parents don't want THEIR child to see. Thing is this is about control of other peoples kids.

(3,138 posts)Biden. That's the prize they seek -- to get back in power. Tfg doesn't care, and he keeps suing everyone, knowing full well that he doesn't have a case. Nothing phases him. Even his wife wears a jacket with "I don't care do you" painted on it. Tfg only wants a US default, because Putin tells him what to do and what to say. House republicans want a default on the debt because it would be blamed on Biden and give evil a time to flourish.
House magats only want power and destruction so they can take charge. That's it. They're not only planning to kill our Democracy, they're planning to destroy Democracy everywhere to please Putin. It's all part of one plan to rule the world. Ukraine must beat Russia completely.
Republicans need Biden to be discredited and for tfg to win. Putin owns more than tfg and McCarthy. Normalizing mtg and bobo (now there's an embarrassment) is part of their plan. I can only hope that enough brilliant Democrats can find the way out. But there are three kinds of Democrats:
1) those who genuinely believe in our country and the rule of law.
2) polititians
3) dinos that I won't name here.
Only category one can save us. Our edge is that these Democrats DO care. The enemy lies, cheats, and steals. What they lack in qualifications and experience they make up for in just not caring.

(8,224 posts)...she was 1 of 4 candidates & I'm glad to say she finished in the single digits, 7% or 8% if I remember correctly. The "inclusive" candidate endorsed by the local Democratic party did much better, & advanced to a run-off election with another candidate.
Yes, Florida.
