Senate Dems from red states

When are they going to learn that they won’t win re-election by being republican-lite and trying to win over voters who will not vote for them regardless. You win by winning keeping the liberals, Dems, and moderates energized.

Values Voters

I was listening to Steele and Unger on my way home today and the topic was on White Evangelicals and how can they support someone like trump.

I am tired of these self righteous hypocrites high jacking what it means to have values. The two things that they always hang their hats on are being anti abortion and homophobic. But if you look at everything else they have the least values.

They hide behind that term because it sounds nice and hides their real hateful racist agenda.

Jeff flake? Who cares

When has ever voted against Trump’s agenda? If he really feels the way he feels then he should have not have voted for the tax cuts. Even if he agreed with them, that gave Trump a win a made him seem normal and effective.

I want proof of trumps weight

Just like he wanted proof of President Obama’a Birth certificate.

He needs to get on a calibrated scale live on national tv. Similar to what boxers do.

239 pounds? Just ridiculous, why are Americans ok about being lied to with something as trivial as this.

SOTU prediction

The idiot will stay on script reading from a TelePrompTer (not well I should add). He will get by without making a mistake and have some military wife in the crowd pulling at America’s heart. The media (not just Fox) will say it was a superb speech. Van Jones will say that “Trump became President tonight”

Has technology created a more divisive country?

If just seems like the hate is everywhere and so in your face. I remember when the internet became common in the late 90’s/early 00’s I was shocked with al the vile and racists shit that posted on a message board or even a card game site yahoo. Even the ESPN message boards were a mess. And that is when people were anonymous. Now with twitter and Facebook people aren’t even anonymous and they say outright crazy shit. Then of course you have the blogs and 24 hour news channels. And an online news article’s comments section is just disgusting.

It just seems like hate is everywhere. That is how we got a POTUS like trump who only really has the backing of 30% if the country.

I am no fool. The hate was always there, all this technology just lets us witness it. And now people are becoming bolder about their hate and realize that they don’t have to hide because there are many others who agree.

Damn that was fast!

Never had a problem with my Hulu Live until today. I wonder if my ISP has already decided to start screwing me over.

Reminds of what happened before 2010

Republicans swept VA and NJ
Republicans won a Senate special election in a very blue state

Democrats did the reverse!
