Not Only Am I NOT Offended By "Impeach The Motherfucker"........

[ChoppinBroccoli]

............I think it would look great on bumper stickers, T-shirts, cheap hats, etc. It sounds to me like it should be our SLOGAN for this year. Let them clutch their pearls over it. You know damn well that if some Republican had said that about Obama a few years ago, the printing presses would already be churning out the merch right now, and pre-orders would already be through the roof. So fuck 'em. (And "fuck 'em" should be our NEXT slogan.)

[YessirAtsaFact]

1. I'm not offended by the statement, I refer to Trump as "that asshole" all the time

I do think saying it like she did in public reflects badly on the democratic party.

Is it fatal? No. Would it stop me from voting for her? No. Do I think it was stupid and short sighted? Yes.

[California_Republic]

3. +1

[EffieBlack]

12. +1

There's a time and a place for everything. That was not the time or place.

But it was a rookie mistake, not a big deal.

[Sancho]

2. From now on he's officially MF45...

[triron]

70. Great idea!

[struggle4progress]

4. It's inappropriate and undignified

Can't we just stick with the now-traditional language about grabbing him by the balls?

[guillaumeb]

5. As long as the grabbing is done respectfully.

With a very respectful 1/2 twist following the grab.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

7. Don't forget the "squeeze"!!!

[guillaumeb]

9. Pliers are an excellent tool for squeezing things.

Especially the vise grip kind.

[trueblue2007]

10. grabbing him by the balls ,,,, and cut the balls off with a weed wacker ????

[Alwaysna]

73. What balls?

[liberalmuse]

6. When Congress doesn't do their job..

and allows a vulgar, incompetent, corrupt agent of Putin to get away with crime after crime over a period of 2 years while doing absolutely nothing, and further, aiding and abetting his crimes, "Impeach the motherfucker" is probably too tame a phrase to use at this point. You know a lot of people are thinking it, and probably worse.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

8. I agree... WAY too tame, given the circumstances.

[oberliner]

11. We can be better than this

And better than them.

[Liberal In Texas]

14. Impeach the motherfucker is better than them.

Or haven't you noticed?

[oberliner]

16. I just don't think we need to resort to profanity

I think we can hold ourselves to a higher standard.

[PaulX2]

17. Nah

Impeach the mf.

[SunSeeker]

18. She said it at a private party. Kanye said it in the Oval Office.

Trump uses profanity at rallies and speaches, like when he called a black football player who kneels in protest a "son of a bitch."

Not the same thing.

You've never used curse words at a party?

[oberliner]

24. It goes without saying that Trump is 100 percent awful

I've used curse words at a party but if I was a member of Congress I would probably be careful not to do that, especially in this day and age of everyone recording everything and putting it online.

[SunSeeker]

26. She is allowed to be human, even if a member of congress.

She deserves to be able to let her hair down at a celebratory private party. She is a million times better than any Republican, even if she let out a relatively common curse word at a private party.

You suggesting she is not "better than them" just because she used a common curse word at a private party is way over the top.

[oberliner]

30. Absolutely

I am just saying I agree with Nancy Pelosi when she said that she wouldn't use that language.

[SunSeeker]

69. Riiiight. That's "just" what you were saying.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

29. trumputin

[oberliner]

31. He is an awful human being in every respect

[Hermit-The-Prog]

37. we each fight as we can

Distracting Donald is a good thing. It would please me to see him having to answer multiple condemnations daily, whether they are eloquent, shocking, or guttural.

We are in an emergency. I don't think the doomsday clock will get any better when they next update it.

[BumRushDaShow]

45. There is a popular (progressive talker) Joe Madison utterance that goes-

"Sometimes you have to be profane to be profound".

[ck4829]

47. We already are

We wouldn't be here if they didn't find wearing a tan suit to be offensive or if they saw the word 'pizza' in an email and turned it into some Satanic conspiracy theory.

[Squinch]

51. In your mind we are not already better than they are? And not saying "motherfucker" will edge us

over that tied bar for you?

Kay.

[FBaggins]

59. In your mind Trump is just barely over the acceptability line?

As long as we’re at all better than him our behavior is acceptable?

Kay.

[Squinch]

60. Well, gosh. That makes no sense whatsoever. But you have a lovely day.

[oberliner]

61. Of course we are

I am just suggesting we don't need to use profanity. Let their side be crude and profane - we don't need to go there.

[Mr. Quackers]

53. Sounds like you don't think very highly of Democrats

[oberliner]

62. In what way does it sound like that?

I am literally saying the same thing Nancy Pelosi said - "I wouldn't use that language".

[uponit7771]

58. We can follow the law also impeaching Red Don for emoluments violations RIGHT NOW.

[oberliner]

64. But we'd lose the vote in the Senate

[uponit7771]

65. We'd get them on record and run against them in 2020 on it. Either way, someone else not following

... the law isn't an excuse for dems not following the law.

The KGOP robs a bank we shouldn't go along with them

[triron]

72. So?

[Kingofalldems]

71. Should we strive to 'Be Best'?

[TlalocW]

13. I refer to him as

President Fuck-Vets-It's-Raining all the time. Motherfucker doesn't offend me.

TlalocW

[Cha]

15. Nancy, their leader, doesn't seem to be, either..

[Hekate]

23. Mme Speaker is a woman who does not get distracted by shiny objects or squirrels...

This trait absolutely delights me.

[Cha]

33. Me too! I love it! It's the only

way to do it. Focus.. Eyes on the Prize!

[calimary]

38. BOOM!!!!

Um... was there any doubt that Pelosi ROCKS? And that she was meant to be Speaker again?

[Cha]

40. Amazing isn't, calimary?!

I know there are those Reps who had to promise to not vote for Nancy to secure their Votes to win.. but, I wonder if any of them feel a little left out by not be able to support our Brilliant Speaker of the House?

[SunSeeker]

19. I prefer the term Shitler. nt

[Gothmog]

20. I am also not offended

[Gore1FL]

21. I largely agree.

I would like to hold off the blitz until Mueller releases his report, though. It'll be easier to market at that time, I suspect.

27. You mean Daughterf**ker, right? nt

[RainCaster]

42. Yes- sorry for that

But DFT is such a lech that you knew what I meant

[Cha]

34. And, the whole world.

[dalton99a]

25. Here

39. Rashida Tlaib has started a Movement!

It must feel good to know Nancy has your back!

[dawg day]

28. Impeach the MoFo!

It's the future.

[AlexSFCA]

32. she said exactly what we are thinking

kudos to her. If anything, I think she scored extra political points for this from her constituents.

[dlk]

35. It's a Sexist Word

IMO - There are plenty of pejorative words that aren’t demeaning to women.

[calimary]

36. Amen! If there is one, I want one.

41. Do It Yourself Guide

(Cross Posted from GD)

ITMFA! a how-to guide

Back in the bad old days of Dubya, which by comparison are downright halcyon, I joined a DIY group to make our own bumper stickers out of any material that would stick.

This was back before you could google search "ITMFA" and have the urban dictionary spit out "Impeach The Mother Fucker Already" in under a second. Before iPhones and all that shit. So, people would ask what the letters stood for, and I would enjoy telling them.

I wish I had taken a picture, because that car is long gone. But hey, I can make another sticker.

It's really fun to make it out of *real* duct tape, the really shiny stuff that costs more than the cheap "Duck Tape" you can buy anywhere. The good stuff is at the hardware store, and it has removable backing so you can cut the letters out ahead of time until you figure out where & when to display. It's really easy to cut; use scissors or an x-acto knife if you want to get fancy.

Making your own is cathartic, more personal and more meaningful than buying stuff online. Any fool can do that in a couple of minutes. Plus, you're NOT BUYING ANYTHING. You're making it!

Get it?

[Tanuki]

43. Dan Savage uses it to raise money for ACLU, Planned Parenthood, and International Refugee Assistance

http://www.impeachthemotherfuckeralready.com/
" In response to a reader's question, Dan Savage launched ITMFA and raised over $20,000 to support those in the fight against George W. Bush's agenda.

On January 24, 2017, Dan Savage resurrected #ITMFA to support three organizations that are standing up to Donald Trump: The ACLU, Planned Parenthood and the International Refugee Assistance Project.

"We're in for a long and ugly four years, readers. Let's raise some money for groups fighting Trump, let's bring ITMFA back into our everyday vocabulary, and let's remember that we -- people who voted against Trump, people who want to see him out of office as quickly as possible, people who are appalled by this and this and this and this—are the majority.” — Dan Savage

The best part of wearing your ITMFA button, hat, lapel pin, or t-shirt to work or school or your town hall meeting? People will ask you what ITMFA stands for. And then you get to tell them! Impeach the motherfucker already!

Dodging the emoluments clause. Bragging about sexual assault. Conflicts of interest. Didn’t release his tax forms. Asking Russia to hack Hillary. Lying about illegal voters. Lying about the size of his hands, his crowds, and his nonexistent mandate."

44. I'm not offended

But I think it's gross and trading high ground of decency and for search of lower parts of a cess pool is not a strategy I want to see political leaders adopt.

[ck4829]

50. The alt-right is the cesspool, using a naughty word is not IMHO

[no_hypocrisy]

46. 1. She said it in a private conversation in a public place.

2. Haven't we all said motherfucker with great passion during our lives?
3. Trump said "fuck" at least three times during his "meeting" with Pelosi, Schumer, and McConnell. People who live in glass White Houses . . . .

[ck4829]

48. K&R

[Vinca]

49. She only said what I've said upwards of a million times about him.

[Squinch]

52. I gave it a little cheer when I heard it. Finally, some sanity in the face of all the insanity that

has been swirling around us since the campaigns.

[cwydro]

54. As I heard someone say on MSNBC, it's a race to the bottom.

Sorry, I think we’re better than them.

[agingdem]

55. it's a generational thing and I love it!

"motherfucker" is so much more to the point than "he's a mean man"...piece of shit is ok too..

[get the red out]

56. I am still trying to figure out the problem

A R screamed you lie at President Obama during a state of the union address.

[HAB911]

57. +++++++++++

[Baltimike]

63. Amen!!! nt

[mtnsnake]

66. If her goal was to take the attention away from Nancy's speech and put it all on hers, she succeeded

Okay, I don't think that was her goal by any means, but instead of everyone dwelling on what a fine speech Pelosi gave, it seems everyone including the media is focusing on what Rashida Tlaib said, whether it's the MSM or social media.

I thought what she did was extremely dumb and embarrassing at the same time, not simply because she used the word "motherfucker" but because she said "We're gonna impeach the motherfucker." I'd love to see the motherfucker impeached as much or more than anyone, but for her to lay down the cards as if it's a fact that impeachment is in our plans at this very moment, it was doing the Democratic Party a disservice, IMO. A congressperson just shouldn't talk about something like that as if it's fact, not in public anyway. Even if she had only said "We're gonna impeach him" without the "motherfucker" in there, even that would have been a mistake to say it in public at that time and place.

[Mc Mike]

67. I'm outraged that she didn't fit 'piece of shit bastard' into the statement.
