I wonder why we never hear about the Democrats acting badly on these forums, or anywhere else actually? Do you remember the Democratic official in Las Vegas who killed a reporter a few months ago? Or how about the Democratic former Mayor of a California town arrested a year or so ago for sexual assault on minors?
It's interesting to see the effects of media bias on otherwise reasonable people. Sad, but interesting.
Personally, I think it's because it's more fun to poke at those who are the biggest hypocrites. A party that is selling god, family values, and apple pie should not be surprised when being called out for violating/flouting the values they want to inflict on the rest of us.
Nope. Didn't hear about those. The Las Vegas official was apparently a county clerk, which is even more Joe Schmoe that IL's opinion of a representative in the state house. Going down to that level of officialdom does open up new avenues. Did anyone hear about Tina Peters, a country clerk and failed candidate for secretary of state here who has been charged with 7 felonies including breeches of election security. Makes one wonder about country coroners. I assume the assault on minors was not politically motivated. I don't doubt that there are crooks in both parties, it's just a matter of degree. But, I do suppose it is futile to go back and forth with the various small time political criminals. There are enough bigger fish to fry.Quote:

My readers digest version is that the failed republican (IL's just some Joe Schmoe) paid some gangsters $500 to shoot into the homes of four elected democrats. I don't think the gangsters had a party or it's a different kind of party. Police called it a political vendetta.Quote:

I was curious about who "they" were as referenced in a previous post copied below. As you will note, the use of "them" & "they" indicates a group rather than an individual and I'm not sure which group was being disparaged, or whether it was just for fun or personal bias.Quote:

George Santos--aka George Devolder, pathological liar; Enrique Tarrio, Proud Boy and convicted felon, Ted Cruz, widely-despised senator, etc. It's clearly a matter of context.
