In my reality (to which I'm entitled) you just quelled that meme.

Also from Georgia.

Republicans are just jealous that Marge is getting all the attention.

Moscow Mitch vs Mad Marge...best match up until the new "King Kong VS Godzilla" opens later this year.

Are they though ?

This could just be an attempt by McConnell to reassure the "moderate" Republicans that the QAnon nuts aren't going to take over the party the same way that the religious fundamentalists, Tea Party activists and Trumpists have while his failure to call her out specifically and individually is a nod and a wink that she's welcome in the party.

IMO it's window dressing, nothing more. He is however mistaken if he thinks that QAnon sentiment won't continue to thrive in the party and won't start to have a major influence on policy in the future.

I got a feeling if Trump had never happened, you would still hate all Republicans.

All Republicans? There's more than enough to hate among just the pre-T**** Christian Fascists to fill the blackest heart. You know, the hypocrites who would kill a doctor to save a foetus. Who praise God and guns in the same breath. Who believe lucre is the LORD's reward.

What a wacko. She was also from Georgia like MTG. However, after going full CT crazy about 9/11 in 2001, she also lost the primary challenge in 2002 instead of being embraced by the Dems thereby proving my point. McKinney was re-elected in 2004. "However, contrary to traditional practice, the Democrats did not restore McKinney's seniority. Had she been able to regain her seniority, she would have been a senior Democrat on the International Relations and Armed Services committees, as well as ranking Democrat on an International Relations subcommittee."* Once again, the Dems showed their disapproval of her outlandish conspiracy theories with action.

You sweet talker, you! :p

All is stretching it a bit far, but I haven't seen much redeemable in the Republican party since 1980.

John McCain seemed a decent enough person, but seemed reluctant to back up his opinions with actual Senate votes. George H W Bush seemed a honourable individual.

For the last forty years, the GOP have been the party of dismantling the welfare safety net, giving huge tax breaks to rich individuals and huge corporations and increasing wealth and income inequality. They have set about dismantling environmental and workers' protections, reversing the progress made on civil rights and removing and suppressing the right for the wrong sort of people to vote.

First the Republicans courted the religious fundamentalists, and incorporated their views into policy even though it ran against a lot of what "moderate" Republicans wanted. Then they embraced the Tea Party and finally they've thrown open their doors to the white supremacists and conspiracy theorists.

President Trump isn't an outlier in that trajectory.

Also...to add to your response to dudalb, trying to couch criticism of Republican stance over the past 3 or maybe even four decades as "hating" all Republicans is pretty silly. Trump is a product of the malaise of the GOP that began way back when they began to validate the fringe evangelical and Tea Party voices.
The real danger is in thinking that he is the culmination. To treat Trump's rise in the GOP as an aberration is a grave mistake. If you go into denial and behave as if this was all a bad dream that has passes, rest assured, the next GOP candidate will probably be worse.

I have to agree with both of you. I've watched the GOP go steadily downhill for the last 40 years as it has become more and more extreme starting with its embracing of the Religious Right/ Moral Majority and the Tea Party.

It's OK, the dumpster fire will make it uncomfortable for the fleas.

Principle is one thing. Slinging an Uzi across your back and walking point is quite another. The Kushner's are more the deluxe apartment in the Tel Aviv sky types.

Naa that's just Pizzagate.

Trump fanatic McKinney now "building bridges" with neo-Nazis. Uniting the base with the KKK.

It's pretty much been steadily downhill since the onset of the 'Southern Strategy.'

I grew up in a family of what were then known as Rockefeller Republicans, and cast my earliest votes in the belief that they still existed. They've been a **** party in general since at least the 80s.

lindsey Graham "I rode down with her going to GA. Had a very pleasant experience. I want to hear from her. Before I want to judge what to do about her I want to know what the facts are. If these are not accurate postings they've been manipulated, I'd like to know that.

Reporter: She’s on video.

Graham "She’ll have to tell me is it accurate, I dunno, I haven’t seen the video, what’s accurate, what’s not. What position do you have today. And if your position is different today why?"

"Froot Loop thinks serial nutcase is OK" shocker

Coward performs cowardice. Nation shocked.

Oh, so you used to want to execute members of congress, but not anymore. Well, that settles that.

The problem with Greene isn't her position, it's how she got there. "Jewish space lasers" and "staged school shootings" aren't reasonable opinions reasonably reached, and if she suddenly changes those opinions from one day to the next, the only reason would be the realization that they may not be politically expedient. Her position wouldn't actually change, and her methodology for arriving at one would still be the same- the only difference is that she would have learned to conceal the nuttiness for the sake of convenience.

And, BTW, Lindsey- if Greene says "yeah, those videos were manipulated," and you simply buy that for the sake of your party's convenience, then you're being manipulated; and you're buying for your party the methodology that is the problem to begin with.

:thumbsup: Lindsey is 100% about political expediency.

Excellent. Four more years of Biden and Harris then. Now for 2028?

As far as I am concerned, go right ahead. Anyone who actually believes that crap is indeed stupid. Anyone who pretends to believe in it to entice support from idiots is an immoral opportunist.

Lindsey: Do you still believe in Jewish space lasers and staged school shootings?

Marge: Of course not. Those were just some silly ideas from my youth. I now know that it is actually robot vampire child rapists in Satanic ping-pong pizza basements.

Lindsey: Well, OK then. As long as you no longer believe that crazy stuff.

Cognitive dissonance

Can't help wondering what she thinks about gay people.

Blinken just reversed the Trump policy that embassies can't fly the Pride flag a few days ago. Yesterday, Greene sponsored legislation to stop that, putting the Trump policy in to law. It prevents all other flags such as BLM flags too.

Will her measure get enacted?

In addition to not being able to discern reality, she clearly also can't count.

For that matter, Jewish gay people from space.

Nope. Just like the nonsense she filed to have Biden impeached won't go anywhere.

Let me see if I can muster up some shock............................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..............................................nope .

From a planet orbiting a pink Star of David?

Thought so. If it wasn't MTG, I'd say it was political theatre. But it is MTG, so it is bat-**** crazy.

Slightly Jewish and madly gay?

I used to hook up with a naval lieutenant like that.

No. Why do you ask?

Because of course someone just had to make these.

(They are just Q bathroom rugs, but I'll spoiler it anyway.)

Why do I get the feeling that QAnoners would use those in a non-ironic way?
