Whenever I see the name Hogan Gidley my brain substitutes "Riddley Walker"

When Chief Justice Roberts soon presides over the absurd defense trial of our potus, maybe he’ll rethink Citizens United being such a good thing. This will be historic.........but only theatre.

Please don't insult Lindsey Graham by implying he's a woman. (And implying that that is a bad thing--it isn't.)

As a woman I totally evict Graham from our gender. He's all yours, guys.

I think it is imitation high moral ground when you fully intend to cave at the end.

One difference is that this about trump and he won't let anyone off the hook. Any Repub who doesn't vote to protect him is going to hear about it.

Under no circumstances would I imply that being a woman is a bad thing. I am totally an ally. However, we don’t want him in our gender either and are desperate to usher him out the door post haste. We tried donating him to science but they refused.

Oooh, I like that phrase. Thank you.

Thanks for the response. In our culture it is normal to insult men and boys by implying they are like women or girls. Boys grow up with that. I am hoping that we can ditch that idea for good and get it out of our language.

I am really surprised that science didn't want him. I would have thought he'd be right up their alley, much like the new creatures they find in the deepest trenches of the ocean from time to time.

This Miss Lindsey thing is a meme on this mommy blog and intended, I believe, to imply that he is still in the closet. I totally support whatever his decisions are, but generally wish the Republican Party’s closeted members would stop actively hurting those that aren’t. I also believe the insulting boys and men by implying they are women is going away. Frankly, there are so many extraordinary women in this world, I despair of men being able to keep up.

Regarding science, I offered to throw in a beer coozie but they were having none of it.

If you have access to water, it just requires a quick rinse and a shake before storing in the pouch. If there is no water access, simply give it a good shake after use, dry it and store in the pouch. When you reach water, wash with an unscented liquid soap, dry and store.

I think it's a meme that needs to go away, both the comparing to women and guessing he's gay. Neither of those are relevant to Graham's terrible character. With all there is to criticize him I'd steer clear of any group comparisons.

Some men will keep up. Some men won't. Some women won't be worth keeping up with. My dream is that people will be spoken of as individuals and judged only by what they say or do.

Perhaps instead of a beer coozie you should have offered a ream of thick plastic gloves.

Wait, you’re saying Gosar the Congressional Dentist it’s going to be there? 🦷 Of course I’m joking. But I’ve heard it bruited that one of the Republican manager/lawyer guys might be Jim Jordan. 😳😣

Hogan Gidley is what you'd get if Stephen Miller was put in charge of developing androids.
