Republicans: Proud, self-reliant whiners and hypocrites.

So Tom Price has resigned. Sure, there will be plenty of news about it, but it strikes me that if this happened during a Democratic admin it would become a never-ending campaign mantra on par with Obama's "if you like your doctor" statement or Benghazi!

Other Trump officials have made similar use of chartered jets at taxpayer expense but have been smart enough to have better excuses. Trump is golfing his ass off and spending secret service money at six times Obama's rate - all of which were major whining points for Republicans. Trump has been caught flat-footed in hundreds of lies none of which bother Republicans in the least.

A black man is a son of a bitch for taking the knee during the anthem and Kid Rock is planning a run for Senate despite wearing a flag as a poncho during a Super Bowl halftime. I still remember Abby Hoffman being called a traitor for wearing a shirt with a flag pattern.

What...the...fuck?

meanwhile, 49% of NFL fans say protesting players are doing the wrong thing.

A so called progressive who posts here says if we only stop talking about racism it would go away.

Sanders supporters think an opinion poll is more important than an election.

Trump gets a pass at saying simply awful things while saying that KKK murderers are really good people. Meanwhile as you say, a false news story about a doctor's statement becomes the most important headline of the week. This country is filled with people who are more racist, more conservative and less intelligent than I'd prefer to believe.

The age of fake news and belief over facts are upon us.

Did I forget the blatant self-dealing of Trump himself?

Crickets, fucking crickets,
Trump redefined self-dealing...

Evicting the secret service detail protecting your wife because you want to charge them excessive rent for being there?

That point for me was really like "is this really fucking happening?".

But EMAILS AND OBAMA SPEAKING FEES!!

Fuck this, bedtime, it's all too illogical and as such is making my brain hurt.

It starts with people like yourself saying and doing racist shit. Remember how you are against certain names being given to black children. Remember how you think Shaquita will never be a CEO because of her name. Remember how you went the doctor office and felt that you were going to have a craving for watermelon and chicken afterwards, because the doctor was black....that kind of racist shit

you mean the HBO documentary on tribalism that i started a thread on?

you mean the sarcasm of meeting your expectation of racist moniker?

you need to go back and cite..as your memory is quite selective.

She wants citations of her fucked up racist bullshit again, do you wanna post it or will I?

Then she'll say it's out of context despite the quotes containing links to the threads...

i asked @fauxdog..

there is no such thing as alt left..their name is Progressive.

i'm not playing trumps game (and gop) re-naming definitions.
Bernie isn't even left wing, Jesus you are SO DUMB.

Fine, then let them bring attention to the reason for the behavior and demand there is change and things can get back to the way they were.
You are describing quite well what is going to happen. I'm extremely disappointed in how resilient racism is in this country and put the blame squarely on the white baby boomers who make up the majority of NFL fans. I guess I can look at the progress made over the decades in that 51% don't disapprove.

suppress racism, educate our children better and keep up the pressure while racists die off. The tactic worked well in Germany.
And guess what, racism is still a problem in Germany.

Unless you're proposing rolling out the thought-police, I don't think racism will ever be fully eradicated. There will always be people that have prejudices towards others. It's a human condition. I agree with educating kids to be accepting of others, and I agree that the govt should play a role in ensuring that govt agencies and businesses are free from prejudiced practices/policies, but individuals, and their thinking can't be controlled. There will always be people that hate over skin color, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, etc. EVERY group of people in this country contributes to this problem. Pretending that it's going to magically be wiped away is ignoring reality. Maybe it can be marginalized to a degree, but it will never be eliminated.

I said suppress racism. You think that means thought police. That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying suppress it.

Germany has made great progress and isn't done. The problem will take more than one generation to address.

Hate speech isn't free speech and Germany has the right policy regarding it. .

I keep hearing the same thing from you soft white liberals. Nothing can be done. So abandon your black brothers and sisters to it. Weak.
