If you knew me, you'd realize I normally make every effort to reply to people respectfully, and to engage in reasoned discussion. However, there are exceptions.
You, sir or madam, are an idiot.
ROTFLOL!
Well stated.
Bravo!
"You, sir or madam, are an idiot."
No, I assure you I am not.
I am telling you like it is.
The Republican leadership has put the party into a jam dive this week over two extremely important life issues.
Terry Schiavo is the most obvious, the but the retreat on the nuclear option is the most serious.
Republicans like you seem to be putting your fingers in your ears and shouting "La la la, I can't hear you!", which at least is true: you're not hearing us.
The pro-lifers feel betrayed, our whole agenda coming apart in one week. The consequences of that for the whole Republican movement are disastrous. There is no victory for anybody if this nonsense continues. The Republican leadership has got to act, quickly, to stave off a crisis.
That's the way it is.
Calling me an idiot is not going to change the fact that that's the way it is.
Are all pro-lifers idiots for being horrified at Executive inaction, and horrified that the Republican Senators are waffling on the nuclear option?
What is idiotic about us?
This is a reasonable reaction to seeing people who have the power refuse to use it to carry out the agenda they were elected to carry out.
If it is unreasonable to demand that, fine, I'm an idiot.
A voting, contributing, party organizing idiot.
Along with a lot of other broken-hearted Christian pro-life idiots who have sweated blood for THIRTY YEARS to help get this party where it is, only to have it turn away from using its power to do right when in the clutch.
Yeah, we're all a bunch of idiot dumbasses.
Who needs us?
