Right now, billionaires are rewarding the faithful with think-tank make-work "jobs" that pay six- seven- and even eight-figure salaries for spreading this shit. We must make that unpalatable. Would Kellyanne Conway have taken her job if she knew her children would then see faked photos of her blowing Hitler every day of the Trump administration? You can't be nice to some people. You get fucked over.

Honestly, I'm just surprised people are actually saying the Civil War never ended. Like, I've lived in the South all of my life and it's pretty damn evident no one here (read white people) ever thought it was over. The fact of the matter is that yes, we're still fighting the Civil War and the problems that were never addressed after the fact. One of my favorite books set in 50s Alabama mentions that after WWII, America entered the Atomic Age while the South entered its Industrial Revolution.

I'd say it's more than slightly given that proportionally speaking, California should have over 200 EC votes for their voters to count the same amount as South Dakota.

There's one Senate seat left; if the Dems win it, they get control. So almost no power but something.

It's a nice thought, but you forget that just in 2007 the Repubs created the biggest financial collapse in 80 years and 8 years later nobody seems to remember. There is no accountability. A couple election cycles and all is forgiven and forgotten. The voting public is a group of goddamn goldfish.

Don't be fooled by the cute! Bedlington Terriers are still terriers with all that implies about capacity for willful mischief.

No, he won't. They ran ads asking if we missed W yet. When it comes to Republicans, all is always forgiven. The party of personal responsibility doesn't expect it from their own.

I want this printed as a Christmas card so I can send it to everyone I know.
