They're so afraid of their polar opposites that they have to elect the most frightening person they can. Ted Cruz is the chupacabra. Also calling them bastards implies they have/had mothers.

This is a good time to remind people that German POWs were allowed in the segregated PX and facilities in the South that black US Soldiers were denied entry to.

As much as I'm wildly dissatisfied with Dem leadership, the old "10 Dems did something stupid, therefore all bad" schtick is just silly and fosters rejectionists attitudes over trying to actually change things. its the same "its not worth it to vote, it won't make a difference" I grew up with in the 90s that let the boomers do this to the country

I don’t think it was an accident it got defeated by one vote. If Bernie had voted, other people would’ve voted differently and the result would’ve been the same. It’s a farce. Republicans might try to destroy eachother but when it comes down to it they generally toe the party line when they have to.
