Brown Tulsi Gabbard has such a target rich environment tonight on which Democrat KOOK candidate to destroy. It could be white Joe Biden, which would benefit red Elizabeth Warren. Maybe yellow Andrew Yang will drop out out throw his support to black Spartacus. No matter who wins the debate tonight, America looses.
loses, not looses
Let loose the dogs? Or maybe just lose the dog? One of the best analogies of the current presidency on the interwebs this morning:
Love it. If #Trump has any brain cells at all, he'll jump out of the car and run away.
This is what he reminds me of:
I am the first to admit comedy is hard.

I was thinking kinda’ along the lines of a demented orange Columbus . . .
. . . the kind of guy who, taking advantage of his patron’s largesse sets out on his voyage, gets lost, misses his promised destination by half a world, doesn’t realize it, still decides on calling everyone he meets here “Indians,” delivers the gift of measles to America, enslaves some kitchen help, and then declares himself a bigly greatest explorer-navigator and claims to have “discovered” the already inhabited lands??
(h/t Kimmel)
Roger never made it as far as “L” . . .
. . . he got frustrated by all those weird angles trying to figure out how to
ckkkrayon a recognizable “K”.. . . that, and he had run out of fingers.
Leave it to the moron to inadvertently point out a marvelous thing we should truly celebrate.
Our candidates span the entire range of human skin pigment…WELL DONE, DEMOCRATS!!#
HT to my Cat.
Fixed it for you. Including your spelling error.
The longer Gabbard continues her clown show presidential campaign, whining and wasting money, the easier things will be for her Democratic primary opponent. That's a good thing for Hawaii's Second Congressional District and the U.S. as a whole.
Pfruity Klan Flakes for breakfast again, Roger??!
"Brown", "Red", "Yellow", "White"?
You're a racist asshole.
Gabbard may have a target rich environment, but appears to be mainly a curiosity. With "Gabbard" the most searched for term after the first two debates, she couldn't qualify for the third.
She has such an eclectic mix of ideology, policies and alliances, I continue to be surprised when I find one of her backers. Powerful Pear, I wouldn't think you would support her commitment to Medicare For All, with only supplemental private insurance. She backs the concept of a Green New Deal, criticizing some of the vagueness. She's sponsored legislation to have 100 percent clean energy by 2035.
Speaking of red Pfruit, only a good ol' white man like yourself can enjoy how the red disappears from this map. Even with this, we still have one-too-many Pocahontas', amirite?
So this must be what a conservative means when talking about a color-blind society….
Drat! Another spelling erro.
‘error’
I never make spelling miss steaks!
Is this magic button only visible to progressives?
-> -> vvvvvv
Must be. I see it.
kcuf yuo.
Good News/Bad News. Bad News: Republican SoS in Ohio was ready to purge 40,000 active voters due to errors in their data. Good News: The SoS released the purge list to voter rights organizations for independent verification first.
Curiously, about 20,000 were in one heavily Democratic county. Hmm…
I wonder if our own Honey Badger will fly up to Ohio to make sure those 40,000 voters stay purged, especially in Franklin County?
"If someone is looking to kick 149 million Americans off their current health insurance in 4 years, then I’m not your candidate; if you want to use a bunch of hard-working people’s money to send rich people’s kids to college, for free, then I’m not your candidate; and just because people say ideas are bold doesn’t mean they are bold, they may be bad.” –Amy Klobuchar
The common sense wing of the Democratic party is finally heard from….
But unfortunately she is still polling only about a point higher than Michael Bennet.
I am definitely not being critical – I like Amy and sent her campaign some money – but sadly common sense will probably not win the nomination.
The folks making crazy promises to appeal to the left wing base occupy two of the three front runner slots.
The only real chance which Amy or Mayor Pete (my second choice) is if Biden were to drop out thereby opening the leadership position of the common sense wing of the party.
Well done, R&R. You made your point without resorting to the usual catch phrases and such. A good example I should try to follow…
you centrist hack, you.😉
🙂
Centrism has a place in all things fiscal and no place in justice.
I have the same first and second choices as R&R — Klobuchar and Buttigieg. I hope one or both of them pick up support to the point where my auto correct spelling recognizes them.
We need a centrist (aka, common sense) candidate because this isn't necessarily a cake walk for the Dems. Here is a link to an election prediction article from Moody's that purports to have been extremely accurate in the past. They predict a Trump victory (even a blowout) if the economy is still strong next year. Support for Warren or Sanders is at our risk.

Polling?
Wait – now polling does matter?
So is Gabbard boycotting or not?
I mean if the fix is in – what’s the point?
I, for one, would love to be kicked off my health insurance. It goes up every year and covers almost nothing and I am one of the "lucky" ones with "good" employer provided health insurance. My co-workers who are not even officially part time are even worse off. And even when I get to official full time status in Jan. 2021 the threat of going back to where I am due to a severe illness would still hang over me.
I would love to know if the things going wrong with me are something that is treatable, but I don't have enough money for the (*&^ tests.
Health insurance in America sucks.
^^this
DEN –
you are not alone, and I hope it gets better.
It's supposed to get better, if it can.
Millions of Americans have medical insurance they think they like.
Most of them are not sick.
Most of them are happy to have their job- and haven't really considered how they are trapped into that employer insurance.
Many of them wouldn't notice much change in a universal coverage plan.
And many don't question why the CEO of United Health caer makes $354mm in a year.
Echoing MADCO. I was diagnosed with Lyme's earlier this summer – the first medical issue I've had in my entire adult life. Although I thought I had fair insurance, I've discovered it's substantially lacking. I never thought I'd see the day that turning 65 would look good (and I have a ways to go).
43.8 million underinsured
19.3 million lose insurance for some period
24 million uninsured
vs.
0 underinsured
0 lose insurance for some period
0 uninsured
It's just common sense:
shh
No one wants to hear that.
Unless you'r eone of the 43.8 or 24.
….which adds up to almost the exact number of *rump Twitter followers (65.7 million)
smh … math? whattaya gonna do?
