    I find it disturbing that the right whines like a cow that stepped on its own udder because democrats didn’t stand and applaud victims like the young boy with cancer while Trump was literally cutting funding for cancer research. A real head shaker.

    The Democrats definitely should have stood and applauded, regardless if it was political theater. It just gave the Pubs another stick to beat them with. The hyperbolic reaction from the Right, however, ("deranged, hateful, sick.") :emoji_rolling_eyes: Give me a break. The Dems fell right on into that political pitfall. Get it together, people.

    So many Congressmen and women clapping and bobbing up and down to celebrate a man who's made their institution an irrelevant, national joke. Maybe they're happy to relinquish the power of the Legislature to the Executive Office. Maybe they're just lazy, like the fired veterans.

    Yep. Mortal Kombat is like the video game Pong except instead of bouncing a white circle back and forth you control super human fighters using a 12 button and 2 stick controller to fight to their digital death. Pretty much the same though. Oh, and it says chose your fighter in a deep voice. You missed out.

    Peoples true colors are showing through.. and it’s not good.
    Cancer survivors of all age deserve respect. It’s not a battle anyone aka for or deserves. It wrecks families, lives, friendships.. and for the young it is life altering and scary as hell.
    So to justify the despicable display of purposely refusing to honor that young man says a lot.
    I don’t care about your politics.. any of you… I find most politicians to be a gross example of humankind… but vote for who you want.. but some of you have become so entrenched so engrossed by n your tribe not just winning but being “right”, “just”, and the other side being “wrong” and “evil” that you’ve lost sight of what is real what is good and what we should be standing for. That goes for some posters in both sides.

    It's good to see something that really disturbs you and just compels you to speak up against "that which is abhorrent"! You're the conscience of this board.

    Also;

    You been asleep the last 8+ years? Missed your comments on all the racism, Russia sellouts, crime and criminality. Forget to turn the pesky conscience on for that?

    Well, never mind that- your moral compass is back! And just in time to weigh in on some meaningless political theater!

    You, sir, are a beacon of righteousness!

    Where have you been the last 8 years because I’ve been here and most will tell you I stay pretty consistent with my beliefs. Now.. it looks like you signed up in 2024… and what blessing you have been to the board… but you may want to slow your roll in calling out other posters when you apparently don’t know their history or posting record.
    Or
    Are you one of those sad little posters who changed their name multiple times to hide behind a new screen name?

    You don't know this at all and "if" he was YOU STILL STAND UP AND CLAP FOR A 13 YEAR OLD BOY WHO WAS TOLD HE DIDN'T HAVE 5 MONTHS TO LIVE BECAUSE HE HAS BRAIN CANCER. AFTER 13 SURGURIES AND THE GRACE OF GOD HE IS STILL WITH US 7 YEARS LATER!!!

    How hard is it for the dems to understand compassion, caring and love? They lost the election because the stood on this high moral ground about transgenders, woke shit and LGBQTabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz BULLSHIT!!! What part of the majority of American's don't want that shit any more.

    It's always fun to hear the supporter of a traitor criminal shout. Good times.

    This has zero to do with supporting Trump and 100% about how lost the democratic party is. They don't have the decency to respect 2 families what lost their child to 2 different sick(os) and a young man who was told he was going to die yet he is still here. I lost a child when she was 18 years old to an auto accident and I understand the all the emotions they are going through, but these families have it even worse because their child was taken from them by someone who shouldn't be in this country because of legal issues already. Oh I bet you forgot that Riley's killer was arrested in NY for "acting in a manner to injure a child less than 17 and a motor vehicle license violation" yet was set free and then went on to kill an innocent young lady who was just out for a run. Or the 12-year-old, let me say it again so your hard ass head can understand it, THE 12-YEAR-OLD who was raped by 2 illegals, beaten and then murder yet dems sill sit no clapping no emotion. Again, this has NOTHING to do with Trump and EVERYTHING to do with being a decent person which the dems who sat in the chamber have none of.

    Dems are the 1st one to point out how something is wrong or immoral yet when asked why they didn't stand or clap Fake ass American Indian Warren said, "I did clap when Trump said USA has been supporting Ukraine." but voids the real question. Or they make up shit like Russan Hoax(just the 1st example) and when its proven to be bullshit they aren't held accountable. Tell me how it is ok for a man to play in women's sports? How is that fair? Yet after voting down the bill to NOT allow men in women sports the dems wea pink in support of women? Get the (he)ck out of here. The dems are the new party of insanity and they aren't learning they just keep leaning on it more and becoming more insane.

    I hope you enjoy the rest of your day. I know it is hard for you to find any kind of joy since living in America is so bad.
