  • Did you know Democrats originally tried to make single payer a part of ACA?

    The problem is, they needed 60 votes in the Senate, and ONE Democrat, Joe Lieberman, joined EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN in voting against the public option.

    1 single Republican voter crossing the aisle could have delivered single payer, but idiots blame the Dems. Electing 1 more Democrat instead of a Republican could have delivered single payer, but idiots blame the Dems. 40 Republicans and 1 Democrat voted NO against Single Payer, and brilliant minds everywhere gargled BOTH SIDES SAME!! You can’t make this shit up.

    Questions for you and your upvoters: when you were growing up, did you climb a lot of trees that were way too high for you or did they have fences to keep you away from them? Were you required to wear a helmet while riding a bike? Were you even allowed to bicycle anywhere on your own? Did you ever have to figure out how something works on your own, or has it always been your default response to give up when someone isn’t there spoon-feeding you the answers?


  • A google image search could have answered your question of doubt.

    The visual is from the annual “Gift of Christmas” production at Prestonwood Baptist Church in Texas. It IS a church production.

    Despite being a 40-year tradition at the church, the $1 million Broadway-style production has faced backlash for its extravagance in recent years. In the past, church leaders have justified the performance by explaining the miracle of Jesus’ birth warrants an over-the-top celebration. They told the Dallas Morning News last year, “Jesus deserves our absolute best. … It’s unfortunate that the perennial American tradition of the church Christmas program now draws criticism.”


  • Democrats tried to offer a single payer option. However, EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN voted against it, and as a result, it was possible for two Democrats, Dick Durbin and Joe Lieberman, to vote against it and force the removal of Single Payer and the Public Option from the bill.

    And as a result, we get the BOTH SIDES SAME bullshit. Republicans stand firm and vote 100% against a bill, making it possible for 1 or 2 Democrats to derail it, and as a result, people get mad at Democrats as a whole and ensure Republicans keep getting enough seats to keep this strategy alive.

    What’s amazing is how well this works for Republicans. So many idiots in the world.








  • Let me join you in the karma loss:

    Hillary Clinton: Lost to Donald Trump

    Joe Biden: Beat Donald Trump

    Kamala Harris: Lost to Donald Trump

    There are too many Christian swing voters that will NOT vote for a female President, full stop, and that is baked into the Christian psyche. Christians are taught that Woman was first deceived by the serpent and disobeyed God first, and afterwards she took on the role of the serpent and directly tempted Man. It’s why they do not elect a woman into ANY leadership roles within the church.

    I don’t know how many times the Democrats need to lose to learn this lesson, but the fact that nobody recognizes any of this doesn’t bode well.


  • Brilliant. Hey Genius, did you know Hitler joined the German Worker’s Party in 1919? That he was appointed as Chancellor of Germany in 1933? That he invaded Poland in 1939?

    Tell me, deep thinker, during those 20 years, when do YOU think it was appropriate to start calling Hitler a fascist?

    How about when people do fascist shit, we call them out for fascist behavior? Oh, and FFS learn how to summarize.
