TotallyOz Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I hope he is not done. It sucks that the Democrats roll over and play like pussies all the time and never fight. If the same was said about a Republican, not would happen or they would be promoted. Fuck this shit! He better not resign! floridarob, MsAnn and Candyman 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floridarob Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Just as I logged in a pop up on my newsfeed said he's resigning. I agree 100% with Oz...Democrats need to be as defiant as Republicans.... when they get caught (Trump, Moore) they double down on arrogance ....wtf TotallyOz and MsAnn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks that the Democrats roll over and play like pussies all the time and never fight. If the same was said about a Republican, not would happen or they would be promoted. Fuck this shit! He better not resign! I very severely disagree. “Just because Donald Trump is sitting in the White House and Clarence Thomas may be sitting in the Supreme Court,” said former Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile, “this is a very important moment and Democrats cannot slip-slide and not have a standard.” ...“Democrats are not going to hide behind the curtain. We’re going to open up the window,” Brazile said, arguing that this is the natural and necessary next step for a party that led the charge for the Equal Rights Act, and the first national awakening around sexual harassment after the Anita Hill hearings. “When you go back and review the history of when this became a topic of concern for women in the workplace, it has always been Democrats and Democratic lawmakers who led the way.” https://www.politico.com/story/2017/12/07/al-franken-sexual-harassment-democrats-response-285959 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Larstrup Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Well everybody better buckle up. WAPO and CNN are preparing to release a story which will identify 20-30 members of Congress who have been accused of sexual assault/harassment or abuse. It will be a gut punch to us all. Not to mention throwing our constitutional process into chaos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. I've spent the last year here, and especially There (not to glorify myself, but rather that Document), trying to remind how the Constitution is infinitely more durable than the slight flings and arrows we may attempt to toss toward it. That was, and is, remember, its whole point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
