He doesn't need doublespeak, the current Republican sycophants have the memory of goldfish. They get up, go to the bathroom, come back and everything is all new again. Nothing existed in the time before they flushed the toilet (or changed their Depends).

Wouldn't that be "a few more dicks"?

In my opinion, that makes them worse than the true believers.

I have to wonder what percentage of West By God Virginians ever question why their state is West By God since they're so proud of their Confederate Heritage.

It's a country where they use bug spray to make a Tom Collins.

I don't feel sorry for them AT ALL. They knew perfectly well this would happen, but they chose to believe that only "those people" would lose their insurance, or that the ACA and Obamacare are somehow two different things, or whatever other bullshit they CHOSE to believe. So no, I got no sympathy for them at all. They can't cry about this - HE TOLD THEM HE WOULD DO IT. They fucked themselves, so they can go cry to their mommas.

The problem with backing a liar is he'll lie to you. The problem with backing a bully is he'll turn on you. And the problem with backing a conman is YOU are the one who is conned.

And yet, no matter how many times it happens, they keep falling for it over and over. And their lives just get worse, and they keep backing the people who make it worse. So honestly, I don't give a fuck for them.

I think that whole bullshit about Obamacare and the ACA being two different things is all about absolutely HAVING to believe that only "those people" would get fucked when the GOP gets what it wants. They actually had to invent a lie to tell THEMSELVES in order to deny the fact that they're being helped by the same law that helps the niCLANGers. It's the only way they can stomach such a thing. And now that lie is turning around and tearing a huge chunk out of their own asses.

Yeah, they're really killing any possibility of sympathy with their own wretched, hateful behavior.

No, they won't. They'll blame it on the Democrats, no matter how insane it sounds.

No big deal, just one of Trump's top advisers and Jill Stein getting paid to share a meal with Putin in celebration of RT. Totally normal. (This photo is from December 2015.) Stein spoke at the event and called for greater colloboration with Putin's regime. Cuz, you know, it's cool to colloborate with Putin, but working with Democrats and other liberals would be selling out. IDK. It's gross.

Not everyone thought Hitler was ridiculous, but they consoled themselves with the thought that they could "control" him. Sound familiar? We are so fucked, we have no idea how fucked we are... yet.
