RIP RBG

[Deleted User 310]

Well well well, look at dems being religious all of a sudden.

Surprised people weren't mad that RBG was religious!

(Disclaimer: i honestly don't know if she was even religious or not. I am just messing around)

Isn't it you who always points out that there are plenty of religious democrats out there?

Yup.

I have also heard religious people shouldn't be on the supreme court.

Now i am hearing RBG and god are playing songs on spotify and infecting people with covid.

The Notorious RBG

For someone who posts a high volume of "I was just messing around" comments, you sure don't recognize other people doing the same by posting amusing little things like that. No one literally thinks that RBG had a conversation with God resulting in Trump getting COVID.

It's like you're taking someone's "KU hasn't lost since I started wearing this t-shirt" comments seriously.

The arc of history bends towards justice. It avoids Illy, bending broadly in a universally balanced way that appears righteously religious to some and beautiful to those who work their whole lives for it. But it is possible to see from the right perspective.

I just thought of an alternate strategy that should have been employed:

as soon as Trump nominated ACB, Dems shoulda expressed very loud support for her. Act like they’re excited for the confirmation, and they too look forward to ramming her through ASAP

Maybe Mitch would have freaked out at the thought of doing something Dems wanted, and hit the breaks on his whole hellbent approach, cuz why do anything the Dems want?!?!

[Deleted User 310]

Dems would never act like any republican pick was good. They acted like ACB was the devil when even liberal people that know her say that couldn't be further from the truth.

Maybe she will make a good supreme court justice? We should give her a chance. She is far less problematic and creepy as Brett Kavanaugh.

Looking at the crowd in the Rose Garden for the ACB party makes one reassess the importance given to degrees from Ivy League and other prestigious universities, because it seems like those folks who have GW Law School, Georgetown, Harvard, Yale on their resumes don't have the sense god gave a doorknob. I'd like to think that KU grads would have better sense than to sit perilously close to each other, not bother with masks, engage in hugging, shaking hands, whispering in ears and standing right in each other's faces to offer erudite commentary. Or than even to attend such an obvious super spreader event

If they had such sense they wouldn’t be Republican! I don’t think educational pedigree is as much a factor as partly affiliation.

um...party indoctrination

You can be really intelligent and still be really stupid. Intelligence is that ability to learn information. Smarts are the abilities to apply that learned information.

I know several highly educated people who are functionally ignorant and several poorly educated people who I would want by my side in an apocalypse. Functional intelligence is far more important than attainment and accumulation of random knowledge facts.

Maybe i live in a unique area (i don't really think so but...), but mask wearing here does not seem to be so much about political party. I see/know plenty of dems who don't wear masks and who are hanging out in bars restaurants....is it more clearly political in your areas?

In the rural areas/counties where i work mask wearing is probably at 20% max.

Overruling Roe also takes a massive carrot away from 100 million people. I doubt any GOP senator cares about Roe. They care that their base thinks they care.

Christ, I shudder to think where the bullseye would land. Reversing Obergfell?

I think American finally got over its gay panic, at least to the point where they don't want to outlaw it. But let's not give anyone any ideas.

Sounds like we've got a couple lurkers.

the thing is, it’s a lifetime appointment

you can’t just “give them a chance” and hope...this isn’t fast food

So do people wear "I am a Dem" signs around their necks where you live? How exactly are you coming to all this conclusions? Or are you just assuming that is what you're seeing?

And do you hang out in lots of bars/restaurants, providing you the ability to see the volume and political affiliation of these other people hanging out there?

Or are you just making this all up to support your point?
