Fame n' fortune then, i guess. Jeeze, we gotta vette these candidates more.
U can't run for city hall unless u divulge all your earnings, all holdings, 1040, everything...
u can't libel another candidate...u can't lie about anything...u gotta have weekly press
conferences...u gotta be able to read, write, spell, and pass a history and civics test...
all the above, and more, or u can't run for dog catcher, period. See how u like fame now.

the more you vette them, the harder they’ll Dodge. Civics will need hecka tuning to run with that crowd.

also j/s spelling “you” out is a step up in literacy, and two steps up in readability.

(aside: That Man ran and snagged a term without submitting any of his financials. Look at the hard slog it is to get just some of his tax returns. Shit ain’t right.)
(and lying? Santos laughs.)

I’m still interested in why you said it.

I'll have to find loose quotes in the thread to answer. I'll work on it, and
get back to you. There were just a series of jokes everybody made that made
me think that everybody wanted a final vote, but I was taking it wrongly. You
all were just making fun of the idiot magats. But the whole thing still blows my mind.

Not having a final vote reflects poorly on the Repugs, so it’s popcorn time imo. It would be so damn funny if Jeffries picks up a few spite votes from across the aisle. Unlikely, but there are worse daydreams.

So for now I am deploying my two-phase response:
1) point
2) giggle

Lawrence: If elected speaker, McCarthy will have the title but not the power

65,432 views Jan 5, 2023 #msnbc #kevinmccarthy #speakerofthehouse
MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell explains that after a night of negotiating with “legislative terrorists,” Kevin McCarthy, if elected, will emerge as the weakest and the least smart person to occupy the Speaker’s office.

Actually he was caught on a hot mic saying trumpf should be removed from office. Also some recordings surfaced of him saying similar things. Then he went down to trumpf-land and kissed ass. Trump took him back, but many of the real crazies don't trust him (to be as crazy as they are).

Half of the Democratic caucus hated Pelosi yet they still voted for her because they knew it was better to be united than to look like idiots which is the GOP right now. . . . . . . . . .

Fear kept them in line. She was smart, ruthless and knew how to count votes. One of the best speakers in the last 50 years. (she was working with a similar majority as Kevin)
