Hard agree. Cynicism is self fulfilling. If enough of us care then yeah heads will roll.rsmurphy wrote: Fri Jun 10, 2022 9:08 pm The heads that I want to roll won't, but some might. I am exhausted with the voices calling this presentation of what occured the months leading up to and including the insurrection a farce or theater.
Can't vote because the options given are fucked just like in life.

Guns, God, and Babies, amirite? I mean who doesn't like that? I really feel that misanthropy is as big a danger as anything else we face as a society...and yet the fact that a sentient being would see this and put that 20' sign in their yard. Absolutely horrifying to just keep watching these people sink deeper and deeper.
JFC. Dude literally on his page of what he stands for says he's pro-life but then later down the page makes a supportive stance against vaccination saying it's "people's rights to decide what to do with their bodies." I'm not even kidding, you cannot make this shit up.
I am sick about how there's no accountability on a national executive level. Ford set a horribly stupid precedent.Jimbo wrote: Fri Jun 10, 2022 2:25 pmFrom time to time I think about the irreparable harm Gerald Ford did to our country by pardoning Nixon. Not only by ensuring no president will ever face consequences for their actions, but also if he hadn't done that he probably would have been reelected, and the malaise of the Carter years would have fallen on him, making it so Reagan wouldn't have gotten elected in 1980.DaveA wrote: Thu Jun 09, 2022 8:13 pm Echoing others' sentiments: just 'cause heads should roll doesn't mean they will.
It's interesting, because since around when Trump took office I've seen Watergate bandied about a good deal, sometimes with Woodward and Bernstein themselves as panel guests. And yet, when since then has a top-ranking U.S. official been prematurely ousted or gone to jail? It's happened to mayors, occasionally, sure, but no POTUS since Nixon has been ex-communicated from political life. Rather than Watergate being a precedent, in legal terms, the way things have played out, it seems like more of a fluke.
