2016 Postmortem

(39,961 posts)68. PUMApac and it's supporters
was such a cynical and disgraceful bit of political tomfoolery, it took my breath away.
You have Darragh Murphy donating $500 to John McCain in 2000, establishing the PUMApac in 2007-8, and then going on to support Mitt Romney in 2011-2012.
It was just gross, and those were Hillary supporters.
Bernie Sanders, and Martin O'Malley for that matter, would call them out on the carpet and give them a blessing out that could be heard on Mars.
It stuns me how soon people forget.
I'm all for forgiving trespasses, but if you are taking a machete to my garden and cutting up the food I'm growing, my patience for you being in my yard or wheelhouse comes to an abrupt end.
