Something I posted on FB

Are all Republicans Hypocritical lying bastards? Well-they support Trump's immigration policy where children without parents are thrown in cages. And there was a time within recent memory when a Hispanic child wasn't caged and was treated quite differently than the way that Republicans now support. So are they lying hypocritical bastards now-or were they lying hypocritical bastards in the year 2000???

"Elian's plight would likely have elicited strong emotions from parents, and even members of Congress, no matter where he came from. Cute and photogenic, he is a motherless child with enough pint-sized stamina to have endured two days alone and adrift in the Atlantic Ocean. But because he is Cuban, because his divorced mother drowned while fleeing the island with him, and because he has been claimed by South Florida's politically powerful and highly vocal Cuban community, his case has been propelled into the realms of high politics and foreign policy."

"On January 21, 2000, Elián González's grandmothers, Mariela Quintana and Raquel Rodríguez, flew from Havana to the United States to seek their grandson's return to Cuba. While they were able to meet with the boy only once at the Miami Beach home of Barry University president Sister Jeanne O'Laughlin, they journeyed to Washington and met with congressmen and Attorney General Janet Reno. After nine days of media coverage (during which Republican lawmakers acknowledged they did not have the votes to pass a bill to give González U.S. citizenship), they returned to Cuba to "a hero's welcome".[8]

It has to be asked...

How highly is the term "feckless" trending on google?

Two lnsults...

one implies a person is a sub-par human and the other implies a person is sub-human. That's why one can kiss my ass and the other I support (Samantha Bee). And remember that in a world seeking gender equality the term used is exactly like calling a male a dick or a prick. When has anyone been called on to apologize for that?

On the NFL

Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:—"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, ‘Get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out! He’s fired. He’s fired!’” the president said

Is he violating his oath?

Code of Conduct for Members of the United States Armed Forces

http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/readings/code_of_conduct2.htm

Article 3:If I am captured I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

The talking heads are morons-John McCain is a hero, but if he agreed to be returned home after capture he would have been court martialed for conduct unbecoming. It is plenty enough that he flew aircraft in combat but saying yes to early release is a no-no even for the lowliest private and would have ruined the life of the son of a navy admiral...

Without commenting on guilt or innocence

In less than 6 hours a good democrat was accused, called on by multiple people to resign, resigned his office AND I have seen his resignation quoted as proof he was probably guilty. Can anybody else see a problem with this?

Does it offend you that I'm not offended???

A comedian told the truth. Republicans object to hearing the truth. The sun arose. the sky is blue. Water is wet. You would have to surprise me before you can offend me...
