(5,198 posts)25. I've always love Dennis
and so sorry for the loss of his great-grandmother. She looks SO proud of him and so full of love.
I totally believe DK was BULLIED out of office by the sociopathic culture we have built up around machismo and appearance. It's no wonder we have problems with bullies in school because this is the way our culture is set up. No one had this man's back when he was being attacked--because this insecure culture needs a macho man. He couldn't be attacked on issues because he was 100% liberal-right-on with everything, IMHO. This country has so many hangups.
