Republicans and the End of Civilization

[One Bad Pig]

Doubtful. She and her hubby are multi-millionaires. IIRC, among the richest in Congress. They own multiple businesses which won't use union labor and she's well known for pushing legislation that directly benefits her and her friends.

Not to mention the bazillion exemptions she wrangled for Obamacare.

Reality check...How do you know a politician from either (or any for that matter) party is lying...

Their lips are moving?

Their lips are moving?

That's the official answer.

"It would be very important for Democrats to retain control of the Senate. Civilization as we know it today would be in jeopardy if the Republicans win the Senate. It's really important."

She's definitely overstating the consequences, but ironically, your fellow Republican seer posted this thread just a few hours earlier. And, uh...based on that and many more of his threads, let's just say that if a Republican like him ever got into power, I absolutely would fear for civilization.

Oh, the irony. Not that seer is likely to get elected.

While you're busying throwing cheap shots while of course never actually addressing any arguments, you disagree that politically empowering someone who keeps trying to defend a convicted and proven domestic abuser might be worrisome for civilization?

I disagree that seer is likely to become politically empowered. You're fear-mongering, just like San Fran Nan (hence the irony).

I also disagree with your characterization of seer's thread (and your *ahem* cheap shots), but that's not the topic of this one. Do try to stay on topic instead of attempting to put others on the defensive.

As do I.

Not at all, because I'm confident that no one as extreme as seer will have a position of political power. Hence the joke "IF something as ridiculous as that ever happened, I'd be worried. But luckily it won't happen."

Sure, but I noticed that you put quite a few people on the defensive yourself.

Are you really not bright enough to understand what seer was getting at? Or are all liberals equally nuts as Pelosi?

If I'm not, would you care to enlighten me and explain what he was getting at? Because his apparent insistence on defending Ray Rice for the sake of critiquing feminism (which he doesn't seem to understand) is quite troubling, and it would greatly ease my mind to know that he's more sane than he appeared to be in that thread.

Or are all liberals equally nuts as Pelosi?

Seeing as I'm not a liberal, how would I know?

Yeah civilization sure had trouble flourishing when gender equality as we know it didn't exist.

[Darth Executor]

And what kinda idiot uses seer as an example of an extremist. At least use me or Epo. 0/10 for effort.

[fm93]

The prospect of you being in power doesn't trouble me at all. In fact, that'd be really amusing.

Meanwhile, the prospect of Epoetker being in power is so mind-boggling that I can't even begin to conceive of it. It's like trying to wrap your mind around the idea of actual infinities.

huh. So what do you consider yourself?

Nice backpedal.

...followed by a content-less deflection.

Maybe you could show me a post of yours where you're not arguing from a liberal position? I don't recall seeing any, though I admittedly have not read all your posts.
