#2 is correct though when she quoted Obama, and asked why the Dems didn't protect gay marriage and Roe when they could have. I'd like to see Pete's answer to that. Or any Dem's answer to that.

Why doesn’t he let Pete speak?

What a smug, pretentious, wildly and absurdly overimpressed with her own mediocrity CREATURE that is. It's hard to imagine that it has ever had a friend in this world. It shouldn't.

She was hostile. She's not undecided. She's obviously already decided against Kamala. If she doesn't want to vote for Rump, that's not undecided.

tempusfugit's avatar

Yep. Probably an idiot Steinbot.

What are we to do with Pete? He's too smart and too talented to languish in Transportation.

Eight years is a long time for him to wait for the presidency.

A gay man for president? After we lost with a black/ woman candidate? I mean, the whole support of LGBTQ thing didn't work so well with Harris. I'd rather we didn't make "being gay" a big thing in '28.

Kill? Mead? Is Bri-kins after the paper company or the beer?

I can never remember, is Brian the dumb one or the dumb one?

I would like to nominate Mayor Pete to be the Harris Administration's Secretary of Truthing FauxNoise. He is so good at it. He seems to read and absorb everything he reads or is told, can recall it from memory instantly and recite precisely what he read or was told. He does so without demonstrable rancor for the stupidity of the likes of Killjoy, almost with pity for the stupidity. Incredible talent.

Being stupid and obnoxious must be a prerequisite for being a Fox News anchor.

“ Fox News did not take the double dare, shockingly.”

Well, if they did it might have gone to the physical challenge, and there was no way Pete’s going to be losing that to Brian.

Brian couldn't find a flag in a giant nose using both hands.

Did Slayer Pete then explain to Braindead Brian that yes, German generals 1933-45 were Nazis, and that no, “they didn’t join the party but swore allegiance to Der Führer” doesn’t change anything.

"Democrats didn't get something I wanted done done, so I'm voting for the party that will DEFINITELY not get it done" is quite the political somersault.

Wookiee Monster's avatar

Yeah, I don’t get that logic either.

Did democrats squander opportunities to codify reproductive freedom into federal law? Yes. But how is that an argument to vote the party that will absolutely take your rights away if they get the chance?

Permanently Confused@68's avatar

Pete should have addressed that though.

Wookiee Monster's avatar

He was the secretary of transportation. Reproductive rights weren’t exactly his area of authority.

She thinks she's smarter than she is. What a little S - H - 1 - T.

Exactly the kind of kid -- bitter, overconfident, friendless -- who grows up to vote and work for the GOP.

She'll do well in the Young Republicans.

For some reason all this reminds me of an antique play and movie: *Inherit The Wind*

A school teacher is arrested for teaching evolution and an agnostic defense lawyer goes to bat against stupidity. Spenser Tracy rules the roost! The cast includes Frederic March and young Harry Morgan. And you will also spot the first *Bewitched* Darrin too! Dick York FTW! Gene Kelly also shows up playing a journalistic skeptic patterned upon no less a personage than HL Mencken.

Here's two clips. The first one is shorter and fun. The second one takes eight minutes.

Spenser Tracy did not win the Oscar for best actor in 1955. But he should have.

It wasn't just an antique play and movie. This was based on the Scopes Trial from 1925. They changed names and even the location "to protect the innocent".

tempusfugit's avatar

Yeah. Neither Borgnine nor "Marty" even deserved a nomination, much less the statuette.

Still fighting this battle. A 3,000 yo book written by desert dwellers who had no concept of say, germ theory, vs. an ever growing mountain of evidence from the fossil record to DNA.

archy's avatar

Too bad about the horrible rubber wig Frederic March wore.

marydn's avatar

The character was based on William Jennings Bryan who was bald.

Linoleum von Curmudgeon, Esq.'s avatar

Wrong wig on the wrong character?

Or right wig for the right character?

That was a very disappointing article.

You got my hopes up with that headline.....

Sigh....

I guess it really only happens in my daydreams.

Seriously, applause for Pete.

funnyhaha's avatar

The stupid one with the flat head also called him "Mr. Mayor," because using his fucking title is like pronouncing Kamala's name correctly and saying the Democratic party instead of the Democrat party. They're all fucking 14 years old. And about as smart as if they fell straight out of the womb onto their heads on rocks.

Vic's avatar

The Secretary is in the Democrat party, so those protocols don't apply to Fox loser fish.

It's MISTER SECRETARY now, FoxHeads

Y'all try to keep up

They just can't on account of being a mite bit slow.
