(1,980 posts)We need him. The fact is, if every politician, entertainer, public figure, etc. was 'fired" for using their power to intimidate, there would be nobody left. I do not condone mistreatment of females - being female myself and having experienced it throughout my life, as most women probably have in one way or another. However, this is just a witch hunt. They are LOVING the fact that the pressure is on for Al to step down because they FEAR him.
The SNL days were full of sex, drugs and rock and roll. Everyone knows it. It does not excuse it but then again, he didn't know he would be a senator one day either. I don't know why we aren't doing what we can to support him - do what THEY do - have him go to sex rehab and "pray for forgiveness" - it seems to work for the GOP, right? Or just deny it happened, like they do.
He is one of our best, politically. Losing him is a huge loss for us.
I'm so mad at my party right now i could scream. FIGHT DAMMIT FIGHT. Stop rolling over and watching while our country is being destroyed! You can't win a knife fight with a banana democrats. You are FIGHTING FOR OUR LIVES - get busy!!!
Stop asking for my money when I don't see you doing anything with it. Ask for my time and talents to help organize and get ready for 2018. I do not get one call asking for me to volunteer, just to give money that will be matched. This is about more than money - we need people and energy. MONEY IS THE PROBLEM.
<crying> we need B.O. ... i miss him so much...
