    The Incredible Marjorie Taylor Greene
    This argument to have all candidates for public office pass a competency test, Republican Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene, has today graced us with the following piece of absolute trash.

    The government making people wear masks is like the Nazis who made the Jews wear signs and put them on railroads to send them to gas chambers and kill them.

    Yeah, I paraphrased and shortened it slightly, but that's the meat of it.

    Why won't Madam Mim rescind the mask mandate ? Is it her way of saying the vaccines don't work ?

    Variants are out and about. This pandemic is far from being over. It's still to be determined which vaccines do the best job of giving total protection.

    No ;the power hungry Dems are using the pandemic as an excuse to flex their muscles . In fact they hope the pandemic is with us forever .

    The Dems have been comparing the Repubs to Nazi's for years . Now they have selective outrage .

    Naw. You're thinking of the trumpsters and trumpettes. If the Republicans would behave, no more problem! We could even picnic together this summer. I'll bring the prime rib steaks to grill.

    The crazies are getting into the higher echelons of the Republican Party.

    Minority Leader McCarthy has become a type apparently unaware that his insanity is recorded on camera almost on a daily basis.

    Then there's the nutcase Republican Rep Clyde who claimed (also on camera for all the world to see) that the Jan 6 insurrection was nothing more than the usual tourist activity visiting and taking pictures. Even when the video showed the moron helping to stem the onslaught by pushing furniture against an entrance door for protection against those "tourists taking pictures".

    Republican Senator Hawley making the most outrageous lies about the election and, of course, Giulani, long known to be on the brink of madness along with his fellow attorneys Sidney Powell who admitted before a judge she was "exaggerating" when screaming about fraud and, lest we forget, the truly insane Lin Wood who is caught on camera raging about the "illuminati" - a notorious cabal behind the Democrats and Biden.

    When they make the movie about this bizarre Trumpian era in American history, it would be hard to believe such goings-on really occurred, but the film is always there for all to see that it is the truth, strange as it seems.

    There are extremists on both sides of the aisle. We have a Pres who can’t speak without a teleprompter or answer impromptu questions and a VP in charge of the catastrophe at the southern border who won’t go there and won’t talk about.

    Oh, you're back!

    Biden and Harris are remotely far from my post re Republicans. They are normal people. Like Trump making fun of a paraplegic, you find fault in Biden's speaking with a teleprompter. Trump could barely speak with one. Without one, he was all over the lot, unable to hold a thought more than a moment without sliding into another. Biden has often spoke extemporaneously with great clarity. You're just not seeing.

    You need to understand the meaning of false equivalence. Then you won't post such nonsense as you did here. Google it.

    Tom, Tom, Tom ......... you're losing it. Even your Repub heroes in Congress are denouncing Greene as a nutcase. Please don't get trapped into the web she's weaving. She's a crazy lady.

    Wearing masks is not the same as the Nazis forcing people into gas chambers in extermination camps. Good grief!! Like I told your partner in crime, look up false equivalence. Stop posting nonsense. It ain't helping your cause.

    My "Repub heroes "????????? Who would that be ? Not McCarthy . All he does is bow to pressure .

    The presumption is that Nazi abuse began with extermination camps . They did not . They began by instituting legal measure to strip Jews of their rights while simultaneously waging a campaign to socially ostracize them .
    Germans were told that Jews were 'the other' .The Nuremberg laws defined who was a Jew and who was not a Jew.

    Jews were then separated from the rest of society . Laws against hiring ,attending schools ,other public places were initiated . (do you have your vax papers ? What about a vax passport ? )

    I don't know how far the country will take this . We already have experienced lock downs with little resistance . Can ghettoization (forced quarantine ) of non-vaccinated people happen ?

    I'm sure they are to you. They are perfectly normal liberal dems. Can't talk without prepared notes. Can't answer impromptu questions. Sleeps with the political boss to get a promotion. In charge of a border you haven't seen. Afraid of press conferences. Yep. Pretty normal.

    Why do right wingers defend their certified loons by attacking? This is about specific nut cases based on public behavior. If you don't think MJG isn't off her rocker just be brave enough to say so.

    Or be a coward...
