It's crazy. I don't get it. I mean, he does stuff to kind of make you feel sorry for him (his "art"), but FFS, he's not a good guy.Flex wrote:This little move to veneration for Dubya over the weekend has made me ill.eumaas wrote:Liberal Twitter has now united on the proposition that George W.

Pence is a chomo? Also, how do you know of such slang?BostonBeaneater wrote:JennyB wrote:It's crazy. I don't get it.

It's a bygones be bygones sort of thing I think. I don't like W. but seeing his mug just doesn't elicit the contempt it did eight years ago. Compared to Trump and his chomo* sidekick GW seems awfully palatable.
*Chomo: prison slang for child molester.

It's only the sports rival approach to the two party system that meant a lot of Dems hated him. They've shown with their Obama adulation how accepting they are of ongoing war.
Likewise, the UK soft left are happier to vote Theresa May than Corbyn. Ideas and principles don't seem to matter to them, any more than wanting Arsenal to beat Chelsea comes down to a philosophical difference.
He's a total chomo. I read a lot about prison slang and culture. I'm forward thinking.JennyB wrote:Pence is a chomo? Also, how do you know of such slang?BostonBeaneater wrote:JennyB wrote:It's crazy.

That makes me think of something I related earlier this summer: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3762&p=440665#p440665Flex wrote:The woke liberal refusal to self-evaluate is coming along quite nicely: http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/09/opinions/ ... index.html
No. Her conclusion is that too many poor, uneducated women have chosen the safety and security of patriarchy over real freedom. No mention of declining voter rates.eumaas wrote:Not sure I want to hate-read this morning. Does she acknowledge abstention and disenfranchisement at any point?
No mention of voter ID laws, I would imagine.Flex wrote:No. Her conclusion is that too many poor, uneducated women have chosen the safety and security of patriarchy over real freedom.
