I know all you moderates are truly convinced you’re the smartest, most rational people ever, but you’re slowly boiling to death in a fire started by the GOP and you’re mad at the people noticing it’s getting hot. You’re not rational, you’re not moderate.

I could go on, but you “common sense” people are over sensitive and under thinking.


Haha. I also think people who throw the terms “left wing” and “progressive” as insults truly no idea what those terms originally means.

Left wing stems from the fact that those who use to represent interests of the labor class sat on ten left hand spire of the room. Progressive just means a desire for progressive in positive change.

I am proudly a progressive left winger and hope the D party doesn’t die a slow death of “being moderate” (ie fraction of the party that thinks we are all good and no change needed).


Democrats have abandoned labor and support the desires of the laptop class.

You will have literally nothing to back this up with. Meanwhile the GOP actually hates labor and the working class, really anything that gives regular people any rights at all, they’re opposed to it.


You can’t be pro-labor and support open borders. Open borders are a disaster for the working classes.


Nobody supports open borders. This is just GOP fiction.


Crime statistics beg to differ with your partisan misinformation, PP.


You mean the crime that is down significantly since Trump left office?

Because there is a sitting vice president who has received the endorsements of everyone who matters.


Mark Kelly for VP would definitely be a step in the right direction....and let Kamala step aside in 4 yrs.

I really just don't have the perspective that a swimming group of cells is a baby. Shoot me, but I just don't get the argument and have yet to have heard a non-religious one at that.

I know everyone has a crush on AOC, but the fact she exists doesn't mean she sets party policy. The fact that gaza protesters at Columbia aren't republicans doesn't mean they're Democratic powerbrokers.

The mainstream of today's Democratic party are basically Reagan Republicans. Tough on crime, include middle-class in tax cuts, reduce federal headcount, spend heavily on military and it relies heavily on the backing of pretty much all major business except the oil industry. But the democratic party also refuses to take any steps on climate change.

They're so MILD it's insane. I can't stand what sticks in the mud they are, but an administration that would historically be considered right of center and business-as-usual would be a relief these days.


+1. We can’t even get single-payer healthcare and people think Democrats are too extreme?


After everyone saw their company provided health care premiums and other benefits more than double after Obamacare because they insisted on the working supporting the non-working, who would trust democrats to meddle further?


Obamacare is literally the Heritage Foundation healthcare plan tested first by Romney in Massachussetts. If you don't like it, then blame the Heritage Foundation. Democrats prefer a universal or single payer program, but Obama was going for bi-partisanship.

Yes that is what everyone is saying. The democrats have been taken over by the moderates. Why do you think no action has been taken on the judiciary committee? Moderates will play the fiddle when the country burns down around them.


The whole country moved far right after Reagan. The liberal doesn't really exist anymore.

Exactly. The democrats have gone quiet on social issues by just being tolerant but not making bold statements-LGBT is good, Black is good, brown is good. Republicans try this whole "exposing" angle where black and hispanic voters are discovering that Democrats don't support them or whatever, but what is really happening is the Democrats are trying to compensate for a much further right part of their base and just have started shutting up about any policies that certain demographics care about.

See how quickly Dems choke if you ask about trans rights. They just condemn the Republicans for talking about it. We've basically routed back to don't ask, don't tell.


Huh?

There woulnd't be gay marriage in the US without the Dems.

The GOP are toying with making interracial marriage illegal.

Give me a break.

The fact that Donald Trump was the republican nominee after being caught on camera bragging about sexually assaulting women in his previous election and is once again the nominee after the events of January 6th has completely destroyed my faith in every current republican politician. They have well and truly sold their souls. If they clean house in a few years I’ll consider voting for a republican again then.


Bill Clinton said and did equally disgusting sexually exploitative behaviors and I am old enough to recall Democrats in the House and Senate saying, “This isn’t relevant to Clinton’s presidential job performance.”

My, my, what a difference a couple of decades makes. Or a change of party registration in the sexually harassing party.


And he was impeached for it and basically tarnished his legacy. We also didn't have Clinton on tape boasting of sexual assault and predatory behavior before he was elected.


And yet anything posted about Biden's behavior that is worse than both is deleted from this forum.
Hypocrisy reins.

Babies are 5 1/2 inches long and 6 pounds at 18 weeks, and can be aborted according to the law in Roe. Hardly a “swimming group of cells.” Maher’s argument is a lot more honest than your gaslighting. The party that wants everyone to “trust the science” can’t also be the party to ignore the ultrasounds, MRIs, and other advanced imaging techniques.

But the definition of crimes have changed as we are no longer punishing or reporting people the same way for certain crimes. It hasn’t been apples to apples over the years especially recently.

Exactly, if you think crime has decreased please go ask the working class (many hispanics) whose tires were recently slashed in Falls Church. That's a crime.

Go ask the many who have been carjacked in broad daylight. That's a crime.

Go ask the families of children gunned down in broad daylight if crime is down.
