And they want to brow-beat my generation about patriotism, fucks sake

I need a drink

I ain't brow beating you about patriotism, I'm giving you a reasonable counterpoint.

*they = congress and washington

Tangent, then.

partially

I still hold Ron and Rand as the only Reps with brains, but god damn, this is just irritating

goal - treat health conditions of 1st responders arising from responding to 9/11.
just do that. it's not hard, at all.
the fact that they are making it harder than that means some b.s. is going on

^

yeah basically

but *everyone* is making it harder than it needs to be

Yeah, everyone just want to pass it until 2090.

that's dumb

pointless

Some amendments sound nice to me.

the "bs" is that congress and the state department are busy giving the biggest slice of the budget pie to the Saudis and Israel as they can, and only break out the "but what about the cost" argument when that money is going back to the tax payer

neither party, neither organ of congress, and no department of government is innocent in this

What is this what aboutism. Why are we talking about Saudis.

well, if paul presents that argument to *every* spending bill, then he's just being consistent

And i thought Paul was anti war.

Pauls are the exception, they in fact are consistent about it, which is why its just irritating

@SuddenCringe he's trying to say "fuck it, we already spend tons of money; why bother making the argument?"

That's some bullshit argument.

@Jokerfaic but the video in question is specifically calling out paul

because he blocked it. but the trend is still there

What trend? Rand Paul is anti war.

the vid is calling out paul specifically. paul is merely acting wholly consistent with every other thing he's ever done.
non-story

then I'm not being clear

secular talk just picked this out as today's axe to grind with conservatives

yeah, you're stretching this out to be about the system

Yeah everyone tends to that nowadays. A bit sad.

But especially Secular Talk, he is 100% biased.

Not really juding, he makes his position clear.

biased in which direction? he's no friend of democrats

He is 100% progressive socialist

yes, secular talk is an ideological talking head for the left

He is founder of that Justice Democrat.

With Chenk.

dems are establishment neos

yes? and then they went full SocJus and he left

after they kicked out cenk, for the above reason
