(955 posts)And how many times have the Dems listened and took the advice? Yeah. That's the same null set I get. Think about what they did to Gore and Kerry and what they tried to do to Obama during elections and the level of disrespect and contempt they treated him with since. Think about the hypocritical double standard and hate they have directed at Hillary for 24 years and to Democratic candidates in just about every House and Senate race.
The Republicans ignore their own transgressions and verbally batter us while we try to take and hold the high ground. They link us to child molesters, call us weaklings, cowards, deadbeats and sponges, invoke death panels and accuse of butchering fetuses and selling them like beef with our thumb on the scale. They call us cheaters, crybabies, pointed headed intellectuals and threaten to bomb or shoot us. They have run away with local and state governance with blatant gerrymandering and systematic vote suppression. They control almost the entire AM and FM bands and fill every talk show slot with lies and non stop hate mongering against liberals and progressive causes. They poisoned an entire city in Michigan. They are willing to let people die without insurance, freeze without heat and go without food. They don't care who gets hurt and they are getting behind one of the biggest, dumbest, meanest assholes to ever run for the Presidency.
We keep waiting for cooler heads to prevail but they just roll down into a crate next to their guillotine. I think it is more than OK to take the gloves off now and let our "esteemed colleagues from across the aisle" get a metaphorical knuckle sandwich right in the teeth every chance we can. This is a blood sport. They made it that way. I want to see candidates wearing some Republican blood on their jerseys.
