I agree that McCarthy is a slimebag. But why are you so angry at Nauti Nurse?

At least I have an opinion.

Do you ever do anything but snipe?

“we MUST pass TERM LIMITS”

Maybe not a good idea. With the pols coming and going quickly, the unelected 25-year-old staffers will be running the show. They’d have the continuity, knowledge base, etc., and keep things operating while the newbies get up to speed.

Two reasons:

1. The GOP only managed an uncomfortably slim win in the U.S. House of Representatives during the 2022 midterm election.

2. The Renegade GOP congress critters split the GOP vote for Speaker, while the Dems all voted for their new leader Hakeem Jeffries.

McCarthy screwed the pooch by moving into the Speaker's Office before the vote, while sorely underestimated the number of GOP congress critters who oppose him. McCarthy reportedly chose to threaten committee seats for those who oppose him.

Meanwhile, the GOP renegades are reportedly moving the goal posts with their changing demands.

“Do you ever do anything but snipe?”

Yes, but you’re looking at this wrong. I point out communism and propaganda when it appears. No hiding behind “well-meaning concern” around ‘ol Sarcazmo.

Its a public service.

“At least I have an opinion.”

This is not necessarily a virtue. Lots of people have opinions. Like Mao, he had opinions on stuff too.
