POLITICS: what have you done for us lately?

[Kacey Y]

I thought CHIP was already worked out before Friday. I guess I was wrong.

It's exactly the deal they worked out in September...they just never brought it to a vote. They did the big tax cut bill instead. So far as I can tell, there was never a disagreement and the deal didn't change, the GOP just put out all the press releases about it and then just never did it until now.

These fucking evangelicals can burn in hell.

Trump's only concerned for "Christian Values" as far as they him votes.

he wouldn't know a Christian value if it bit him in his orange ass.

I have a niece who goes to Liberty (god help her), and that place is all about Trump. They love him. Banging porn stars and family values and stuff.

[dubkitty]

cheezus, why would anybody go to Liberty who isn't a Christian fascist? you'd think you could at least get into community college. and what good would a degree from Liberty do you in the job market?

i know. it's insane. she's a good kid. but her mom is nuts and the dad is a puss and they've been wrapped up in this right wing brand of christianity for years.

i guess she could work in the current us government? or for a private school? or for a politician? i don't know.

I don't understand how that place can be accredited. THEY TEACH CREATION STUDIES. LIKE IT'S NOT RELIGION.

Yeah that’s terrifying.

Soooo as an act of showing we are greedy fucks, someone blows a million bucks to make a point? Is that what this is?

Either way, I'd take that shit in a minute if I were the Prez.

I mean, what is art? Got you thinking, right? That's priceless.

Figuratively or literally?
