I love #Doonesbury with the heat of 1000000 white hot suns. “Democrat” party? No. “Democrat” is a noun. “Democratic” is an adjective.
Here’s a link about that: https://mastodon.social/@GottaLaff/113085164936664065

🤣 🤣 🤣
it's absolutely perfect
you'd expect it listening to kindergarteners banter
and yet, here we are, as a nation
you either laugh or you cry
today we laugh
i don't see "Laughy" i see "Laufey"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laufey_(singer)
but this is because this is what my daughter listens to, everyone else here is normal
either way: {hat tip} to you Laffy, much respect, you're the heart and soul of Mastodon
@Eetschrijver @benroyce Lol, no! LAFFY!!
And thank you both, sincerely.
@michaelgemar @SoGeneris Yes, it is a slur. Read my link.
It is a slur. It's intended that way, and it is.
@GottaLaff Since Liz Cheney is prognosticating that the GOP will have to be burned down and reconstructed, they will have to choose wisely to avoid all mention of the R word so as not to confuse old-school GOPers like me.
Suggest they split off the Evangelicals and hard-core MAGAts into a new party: Call it "Angels of the Lord," a la Heinlein's Nehemiah Scudder. (Who, it should be remembered, transformed himself into "The Prophet" via the magic of television.) 🤔
@jimthewhyguy @GottaLaff
It's too soon to predict how the Republicans will react if they get trounced at the ballot boxes this fall, but I was glad that Cheney did not put herself forward as being able to help with a new conservative political party since she has pretty much zero political capital at this point.
It is going to be interesting to see how it pans out though.
I'm hoping that the Democrats hold the center and that a new party forms on the left leaving the GOP to the far right.
@GreenFire @GottaLaff From my viewpoint of 50+ years observing USA politics, the current GOP is no longer a political party; it's now TFGMaGoonClownCentral.
It - NOT the "deep state" it rails about - needs to be burned to the ground and rebuilt from its ashes, if any are suitable.
Disclosure: I was a Reagan Republican. I didn't go anywhere - the party left ME.
Wow. That is some mighty thin skin
@GottaLaff I used to be a garmmar nazi (remember those?) until I realized a sizable portion of the language abuse was a deliberate power grab.
White men in the US are aberrantly illiterate. The example Republican officeholders set for our students is blatantly ugly. Conservative party, my ass....
@janisf This isn't illiteracy though. Read the link. It's a slur.
I love grammar nazis!
@GottaLaff
DONALD WHO'S-NOT-SANE TRUMP
If enough people use that perhaps he'll stop using Obama's middle name.
