Fetterman is a disgrace. Sorry I voted for him. I think he is actually deranged and should resign.

Hey MBA, I think he's suffering from that or those strokes he had. Remember that?

Whatever the reason is, he should've stepped down. So that begs the question, Why don't we the people have a way to recall members of Congress who obviously have health issues?

Remember what they did to Poor Dianne Feinstien? And we could have gotten rid of McConnell.

And now we have a lot of mentally challenged people in the Government, don't we? I mean RFK Jr. , the orange urinal cake, Bondi......OMG

the orange urinal 😆 good one

Thanks SD, We try to entertain ourselves with appropriate names for things. We usually refer to him as the Disintegrating orange urinal cakes. LOL

Yep IO I stay entertained from reading Substack and watching SNL. There’s always a few good jokes about the orange urinal cakes. 😊

Federal is just making bank.

Got that right AL. So frustrating.

There was a long article about Fetterman in New York Magazine. I’ll link it but it might be paywalled. Apparently his behavior has been very erratic and the stroke probably made everything worse. He was also hospitalized for depression. Of course one has compassion for that but I am very unhappy with his performance.

Exactly....He is not fit for office. That's the issue. But just look at what a mess a lot of these Government people are...Nancy Mace? RFK Jr? They need to be institutionalized or in deep therapy not in a government job.

We're all unhappy with his performance, but you couldn't have predicted this.

Fred Jonas's avatar

Don't be sorry you voted for him. I'm not from PA, and I don't remember which Rep was running against him, but there was no good alternative. He even had a stroke during the campaign, and he got elected anyway. You had no way to know how unstable or dishonest he was. If you voted for him, then you live in PA, and you probably remember who was the alternative. Looking back to that time, would you rather have had that alternative, not knowing what Fetterman would turn into?

Fred Jonas's avatar

So yeah, what? You would rather have had Mehmet Oz? We have him anyway, and the clown would have scooped him out of the Senate, like he scooped Rubio and Vance.

You had a reason to suspect Fetterman would/might be better than he is. You had no reason to suspect Oz would be better than he is.

I’m not arguing with you amigo! No need to be so belligerent!

Fred Jonas's avatar

I'm not arguing with you, either, and I wasn't being belligerent. I was being supportive. You voted for Fetterman to avoid Oz. I would have done the same thing. You had no way of knowing we would wind up with Oz in government anyway. Nor dd you or any of us know in advance how atrocious Fetterman would turn out to be.

I agree. He is definitely deranged. Some mental illness.

Colbert has bigger stones than anyone on TV. Bless him, he has nothing really to lose other than Weiss pulling his show off the air before May. But he will have many, many options...

Fuck this regime, Fuck the FCC, Fuck ICE, and well, I was going to say Fuck the Felon but that is just as gross as the Dog Killer and her Trouser Snake service.

Yeah, Anderson Cooper took the "dignified" route when he left CBS - Instead of calling out the intolerable situation that led him to leave.

Until he does - FUCK HIM!

Many, many years ago, I saw Jesse Jackson speak in person. (My ex-boyfriend's band was playing at the event and I tagged along.) It was amazing. Everyone knows Jackson was an eloquent speaker but the charisma! It was like the entire audience (standing room only) was pulled closer to the stage with each word he spoke. He was mesmerizing. RIP.

Good gawd, they are the definition of STUPID.

I don't agree with making it harder for us married women (who changed our names) to vote. That being said, I think the Repubs should think about which women will find it difficult to obtain voter ID because of a name change: Smart women or Sue Marie Billy Bob Conway.

Cat's avatar

Too true Sandy.

And who is also more likely to have a passport? The majority of college educated women who fucking hate President pedo or the trad wives who vote like their husbands tell them?

Just like the redistricting, it feels like a poorly thought out strategical move. Unless they plan to just straight up steal the election. Which seems highly likely at this point.

"On the Streets of Minneapolis" needs to win song of the year!!!

"Sam watched Days of Thunder last night." Too afraid to watch Apocalypse Now?

And if the FCC won't allow politicians to be interviewed on air without an opponent also speaking, shouldn't we be monitoring FOX for all their one sided coverage and reporting it to the FCC? And anytime we need to include a republican on a show to balance a progressive Dem, they should book Randy Fine. He'd make a drunken dog look like Einstein.

I’m proud of my NM state officials for opening the investigation into Zorro Ranch. Robert Duvall was one of my favorite actors. I loved him in every movie he did. My favorite was him playing Augustus McCray in Lonsome Dove with Tommy Lee Jones as Woodrow Call. It was epic 💙💙

Hey BL, My favorite was the Conversation. Amazing film, still is.

He meant to say “exposed.” The dickhead meant to say totally exposed.

IDIOTS - Trump and FCC.

Attempting to 'ban' the Colbert & @Talarico will undoubtedly BOOST how many times its viewed!!

Joan Wiersma's avatar

I got an email tonight and Talarico says his poll #s have gone UP! Lol....

I recently moved to Pennsylvania and am eagerly awaiting the day I can vote that asshole out of office.

Linda Myers's avatar

When ICE Barbie was governor of SD, her husband left her because of her affair. It was not a secret. If I knew, everyone knew. And, she was hardly governor, she bought herself a plane with our money, and flew around the country, campaigning for the convicted felon pedophile. And, get rid of their dogs? What kind of stupidity is that? They can’t even make up a believable lie!

Confusing AOC with Crispy Gnome. Obviously borderline brain dead.
