| Hacker: I Hacked Hillary's Emails And I'll Sell You All of them for $500,000 Update: Hacker Now Claims He's Turned the Emails Over to the FBI » September 03, 2015
GOP Finally Notches Political Victory!Trump will sign the loyalty pledge, his former (?) aide Roger Stone says. "The truth is, Trump got what he wants, he's given up nothing and he's a strong frontrunner for the Republican nomination," Stone said. "I expect that he will sign the pledge today." But has he gotten everything he wanted? There have been scenarios floated where the state GOPs conspire to keep him off the ballot -- the establishment's nuclear weapon. Where is the escape clause that he can/will run as an independent if this happens? Meanwhile, MZ Hemingway wonders why the GOP is forced to resort to securing loyalty pledges to keep people in the party, rather than, you know, doing things that make people proud and happy to remain within the party. I'm not sure that Republicans quite get the nature of the problem -- and their obsessive focus on Trump is giving them an excuse to ignore it. And so on. And on and on. The Trump thing is scary to the GOP because they know they're failing and f***ing over their voters -- so the prospect of an Escape Hatch (whether you find that Escape Hatch clownish or not) is frightening. Their main goals -- check that; their only goals -- are fundraising from millionaires and keeping their phony-baloney jobs. But those aren't our priorities -- I don't get a cut of their salaries. I send -- or, I used to send -- them to DC to bring back specific policy achievements. They don't do that. They don't even bother trying to do that. They just tell us "It's too hard to do that, we might lose the moderates or whatever and lose our phony-baloney jobs if we did that." Oh? Well then I certainly wouldn't want you to put your glittering careers of Doing Nothing at risk. So do go on, doing nothing at all, and collecting those checks from the Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, more and more of us are jumping out of the Escape Hatch. Enough. Enough. Enough of the enabling. Enough of the codependency, permitting these people to continue hurting us. As they say in intervention circles: At some point, if you keep enabling the behavior, you're no longer a victim: You're a volunteer. Well, I'm a volunteer no more. | Recent Comments
