When the Democrats retake power I don't want to here this bullshit.

Its time to move on , move forward. Obama tried to do the right thing and the republicans and the rich backstabbed him. Obama gave Bush, the republicans,who committed war crimes and all the rich assholes that committed fraud which crashed our economy a big break. No more, people have to pay for their crimes.

The democrats cannot forgive the republicans in congress who obstructed justice, who ignored the Russia attack on America. Democrats have to get tough. The Democrats must treat the Republicans for who they are. People who said Obama wasn't born here. They held fake hearings about Hillary. The Democrats have to understand the Republicans have turned completely corrupt and that must be addressed for the good of the country.

Democratic platform, with or without the support of republicans, and regardless of their objections.

The country knows now just how much their objections are simple hypocrisy. There will be more support than there was in 08.

If we want to ever have a working democracy again.

RW talk radio is why some people don’t believe the truth.

They live in the world of conspiracy theories and alternative facts, promoted 24/7 by “conservative” (neo-fascist) talk radio and Fux Noise.

The FCC can certainly reinstate some form of the Fairness Doctrine to allow alternative voices on the radio.

I’d like to see some standard of veracity required before a program can be labeled “news”. Tricky, I know, but the lack of regulation placed us in the position we’re in now, where Trump lies through his teeth and 30% of America believes it and rejects the truth out of hand.

was ever charged with anything, except for Scooter Libby. Dick Cheney, in particular, should be in prison somewhere (I think the only reason Cheney hasn't been brought out of retirement to work for Trump is that he's too used to being in charge and Trump wouldn't tolerate that). While I agree in principle with the idea that charging political predecessors or adversaries with crimes can smack of despotism, if they really have committed actual, serious crimes, they need to face justice. Trump and his cronies, including certain members of Congress, are corrupt to the core, even more than Bush and friends. I want to see all those fuckers wearing orange jumpsuits.

Olympia! Susan! Ye two “moderates” of Maine, please give me your vote!

Obama won by 10 million votes in 2008 and governed as if the Supreme Court handed him the presidency. GWB acted as if he won by 10 million votes.

Plus, you do need to understand the necessary uses of power. Not frog-marching any bankers was a blunder. Sorry. It stoked the heedless cynicism that gave us Trump. They’re all the same, right?

So, yeah, K&R.

Nixon and his thugs were not punished enough fur Watergate, Iran/Contra should have meant decades in jail for the likes of Ollie North, and W/Cheney should have been on trial for war crimes!

No more doing things merely for political calculation! The crimes of tbe Trump Admin will turnout to be monstrous and I don't want anymore slaps on the wrists, only to have these evil fucks remerge, a la Cheney, John Bolton, etc.

The republicans committed treason and are getting away with it! We need to kick them in the ass hard for what they did. If we don't, what's to stop them from getting away with it again in 2020, 2024, 2028, etc?

This is the end of the road for making excuses or giving the Party of Traitors and Mad Cow Disease another chance to destroy the Republic.

Never Forget. Never Forgive.

They belong behind bars. Preferably frog-marched in orange jumpsuits. In public.

Sound harsh? Humiliating?

They deserve it.
