Liberals say "If only we could just get them to care."

Conservatives say "If only we could just kill them."

That's the kind of world republicans want.

Only people who agree with them 100% allowed.

Women must know their place.

People of color must know their place.

Poor people must know their place.

Rich white man rule, everyone else obey without question.

And it you don't know your place, you should be killed.

That's the "freedom" republicans envision.

And while you typed the above, the lefties in the Senate just inherited the mantle of the "party of no", by voting "no" on even engaging in debate.

That's because the lefties are there to make this country a better place for everyone, not tear it apart, eliminate everything good about it and turn it into a third world hell hole for the benefit of the 1%.

Right, 'cuz the best way to do that is to behave in exactly the way many on the left, including many right here in this forum, believed was reprehensible during the previous administration. The Dems have now inherited the mantle of the "party of no". So, please spare me your selective indignation.

The Rep in the article didn't say that.

Nah. Folks just express themselves in different ways, and we have to be patient and tolerant of folks choice of expression. Here, for example, is how Dems express themselves, in their typical reasoned and intellectual fashion:

...with, of course, one of their elected party leaders applauding.

Are you stating your approval of Farenthold's comments?

More likely, your default argument is whataboutery, and you can't stop yourself from trying to use it to flip any criticism of the Getting Older Party.
