Cheney I would have to think about long and hard. She's got guts and a good head, but I'm not sure I'd like her policy. I would not be surprised if what she is going through doesn’t change her and her staunch right voting record. She has been more than abandoned by her own party, she sees the rightward push of the party and she sees the Dems and a very limited GOP contingent doing the right thing. How can that not change a person? Since she may get dumped by the Wy voters in the primary, she will have time to contemplate her next move. If I were her and I wanted to continue the fight I would do what Reagan did in the mid 1970’s - write & give speeches and develop well rounded and thoughtful policies on all topics of concern to voters. She won’t have the house seat tied around her neck and she’ll be free to make her new path 1 Link to comment

If it was any of those 3 vs tRump you would vote for them (R primary) I'm guessing ...I would Link to comment

I guess the Trump back candidate, Cox, defeated the Hogan backed candidate for the Maryland governor GOP primary yesterday. Unfortunate turn of events. Hogan isn't on the ballot this cycle - I think term limited. So next step prepare for 2024. 2 Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Here's another one that they will want to kick out of the party soon. I guess he can do this since he's retiring. 1 Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I am absolutely shocked that we haven't had our local MAGA Republicans in here outraged over the Secret Service text messages like they were over Hillary's emails. I'm sure they will be in soon to show that outrage. 4 Link to comment

I am simply tired of the hyperbole I don't think it's hyperbole to say that myriad social and economic ills can be addressed through better public education. And if you're willing, all the way back to affordable daycare. America is no longer anywhere close to exceptional in terms of education, and again without hyperbole.....it's heartbreaking. If you think we're saving taxpayer money by defunding our schools, we're not. So many unintended consequences. Link to comment
GSG Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 It blows my mind that people are still against 2 consenting adults getting married. I had a friend a long while back message me on FB because I had posted something supporting same-sex marriage/LGBTQ rights. She compared same-sex marriage to people marrying animals 4 Link to comment

Christians sin all day, every day. Someone else's (alleged) sin has no bearing on their lives, and their focus should be on being right with their god.

She compared same-sex marriage to people marrying animals I'm hanging onto the hope that there's too much water under that bridge to go back. Several (but far from most) Republicans in Congress voiced their intent to protect Gay Marriage yesterday. Once we started having a public dialogue about homosexuality in this country, people were free to acknowledge they all had a good friend, a family member, a spouse, or they themselves were gay, and it required too much work and misplaced anger to maintain the stigma. My kids don't understand why this was ever a problem, and I have to explain that the changes in the last 20 years were actually pretty rapid. Still, it's hard to bet against an activist minority f#&%ing things up for everybody these days. 2 Link to comment

These are homophobes with power issues. Pretty much. So many religious conservatives believe that their religious mission is to make sure nobody sins in the world. "OMG.....Gay people getting married...we need to stop that." Like some how two women loving each other and getting married THAT THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW....somehow hurts them. Meanwhile, the same person sins in other ways.....and they don't think anything of it. Link to comment
