Pardon me while I cheer... Re: Rush Fiasco [View all]


When I was posting regularly, I've spoken about my (R) friends a couple times. Good people, just a little psych washed on talking points.

So. Talking on the phone with one, and I played the clipped together smears he vomited. The outrage was knocking the scales off her eyes. I used it as an opening to talk about teen pregnancy, insurance mandates, womens rights, etc. Discussed the current field of R contenders and how they reacted.

It went so well, I decided to call a couple others and say "Hey, can you believe this?" ...chit chat then later, play the video in the background.

Guess what folks...
5, yes 5 self proclaimed southern R's are voting D in the upcoming presidential election.They also stated their husbands/SO's will probably as well after they hear the bile being spewed. The disgust at being treated badly (one actually said "Treated like breeding stock&quot was palpable.

Ok, this may sound a little stupid but I think I may have a bit of dust in my eye. It's a little wet.
Women are rising and I couldn't be prouder.
