Ann Coulter might literally be retarded

For one, just because Kennedy didn't get poo poo for it 50 years ago, that somehow makes liberals hypocrites? Most people disgusted by Moore weren't even alive back then. Also, liberals can be disgusted by conservatives AND liberals doing something hosed up. They don't have to choose one or the other. It reminds me of when someone is sad that Tom Petty died and inevitably some dipshit says "but you aren't upset at all the Somalis that died this week???". She's loving brain dead but thinks she got a brilliant "gotcha".

Plus, there's no way her "GOTCHA!" point makes this any better for Moore. Ok so JFK did something similar-ish to Moore? So you're saying what JFK did was bad? So then what Roy Moore did is also bad. Ok. So you agree that Moore is unfit for office? OR are you saying "See, even Democrats did this too. We all agree it's fine now." or what? If you're trying to defend Moore by saying JFK also did this and so it's fine, you're... gross.

Has Jeff Sessions got the world’s worst memory, or what?

Attorney General Jeff Sessions’s defense for apparently misleading Congress about his knowledge of campaign contacts with Russians is that he has a bad memory. No, honestly. The man who now oversees the entire Justice Department might have heard about contacts with Russia, but no alarms went off, nothing was seared into memory and no action was taken. Even if you believe Sessions, his testimony is damning.

Yes, and then basically it's up to the prosecutor to determine if they were credible when they said this and whether to pursue charges. That prosecutor in this case? Jeff Sessions.

Slightly more seriously, perjury is something that's usually only brought out in especially egregious situations when the liar has done something to really piss the government off. If it's a situation where someone is willing to revise their testimony and say, "Oops. I 'forgot' :wink: ," then typically they're willing to just let it go. Of course, repeatedly doing this is a fast way to piss the government off...

What I'm saying is busting Sessions on perjury is within the realm of possibility particularly if they start rounding people up, but don't hold your breath until this administration is gone.

A woman on my friend's Facebook post about Bush 41's sexual assaults:

quote:

Just amazes me how it took all those years for those women to realize they were abused.

I pushed her on this, asking if maybe she meant to say that it's horrible that it took so many years for the women to find the courage to speak up. Her response:

quote:

It just amazes me that so many are 'jumping on the wagon' of the poor abused from so many years ago. They all seem to have moved on with their lives and now it's time to ruin people? I just have a huge problem with that, no matter the political, socioeconomic, etc. position of the people involved.

Thinking that she must be some dumb chud, I ask what's wrong with her. Response:

quote:

Nothing is wrong with me. I just believe in forgiving and going on with life. In years past I did not once ruin the life of one of my abusers. They all have families, good jobs, are upstanding men in their communities. I've had a good life, a good marriage. No need to rehash bygone years.

:psyduck:

This is what abuse does to people. She can't even realize that the abusers aren't the victims here.

Congrats America. He is going to be a US Senator and this is the new normal. The level of political discourse is so far down the drain that a honest-to-god kiddie diddler can get elected, as long as he spouts the correct Fox News talking points. This is what happens when you elect people like Donald Smoothbrainne Trump into office. Hope everyone who voted for him as a joke or because they thought that he can't possibly do any damage is proud of themselves.

Yeah, I know this is an Arby's. I can read

Don't say congrats America. You mean congrats Alabama. They would vote for a pedo over a Democrat.

Which is funny because conservatives love saying poo poo like "maybe the blacks should try voting Republican because obviously voting Democratic hasn't done them any good"

Ignoring the fact that they keep voting Republican when Republican states have the shittiest wages, the shittiest education, the shittiest doctors, lower life expectancy, and the shittiest statistics for upward mobility.

Sessions thought he was still playing by the normal rules of politics and recused himself from the Russia investigation. If he really understood how loving stupid his co-conspirators were and how congress would literally let him get away with murder, he would have gone full banana republic.
