In reply to the discussion: its time for nancy pelosi to go away [View all]Proud Liberal Dem
(24,399 posts)48. +1000
Sick of it too! Republicans back each other up all the time no matter what craziness is spilling forth from their mouths. Nobody is telling McConnell- with all his awfulness- that he's too old and to take a hike, probably because most GOPers know that he gets the job done at the end of the day (unfortunately). We need to start recognizing, protecting, maximizing, and enhancing our assets instead of tearing our own people down. We go to battle with who and what we have right now. Just bumping people off left and right just because makes no sense- and it certainly won't help us win in the end.

True. Suggesting any of 4 men and zero women would do better also doesn't make it sexist.
