Much worse than her stupid resolution, please keep in mind that Nancy is a scumbag who believes the government should be permitted to punish you for protesting apartheid.
Ilhan Omar is probably giving Nancy Pelosi heartburn. Kudos to her for forcing Democrats to take a stance on this matter.

A few years ago I had to fly back and forth to Scottsdale to see a client during July/August. I remember walking out of the office feeling like this... Seriously, felt like I was going to spontaneously combust.imgur>

Oh, I fully expect it to fail. I'm just saying that it's going to force her to do something about it in a much more public way.
And it could have major repercussions within the caucus because this time the Articles specifically mention racism. She's not going to be able to ignore a black member of Congress on that topic without pissing off a lot of people.
Yes she will. She navigated around repeated calls to withdrawal from Iraq by just making negative comments about Bush without ever using her caucus to end the war. Most people will just assume she has a plan in place when in reality she ain't going to do shit. She knows how to play the game.

You offer candidates who aren't pushing more and more to the left of center.
The vast majority of the candidates are left of center. The Democratic establishment lived on the left side of a duplex next to the GOP before Trump invited everyone over for an ethno-nationalist party far down the right side of the street at his double-wide trailer.
The GOP went way too the Right with Trump, being left of Nationalism isn't veering from the center-left. Conservativism looks nothing like it did 10 years ago.
Contemporary Conservativism
George Will on Conservativism.
https://trendingpress.com/george-f-will-on-conservatisms-homelessness/
On this week’s podcast, Will discusses his new book, “The Conservative Sensibility,” and says that the sensibility as he defines it is currently “in the ranks of the homeless.”
“It’s a persuasion without a party, which is fine,” he says. “It may have to hope that the Republican Party, when it ceases being a cult surrounding the particular personality of the 45th president, that it will snap back. I’m not sure it will. But for the moment, it is homeless.”

Abortion seems like a non starter, that’s dogmatic and they won’t change, and the D platform obviously won’t change.
Gun rights and immigration? Do these people believe that democrats want open borders and no guns? Is there room here for movement?
Evangelicals and Trumpkins are not reluctant Trump voters, they are his base. This is like calling aggy corp dorks two percenters. The reluctant Trump voters are the disenfranchised working class from the Rust Belt.

To some degree, you have to admire how Kamala holds dem primary voters in such utter contempt. She thinks they are all basically drooling retards.
That's because most voters are drooling retards and she knows she can get away with saying one thing while doing another.

Does anyone remember the MTV summer roadtrip show Amuck in America? The host was Alan Hunter and some very hot 1980s blonde chick was the cohost. Anyways, I was at Astroworld in '86 when they were visiting Houston. I was interviewed by Alan and the blonde babe whose name I cannot remember.
Anyone remember this show and the Houston episode?

My Nazi comparison complaint: it implies that Nazism is the line. So long as we aren’t gassing people or taking their businesses or whatever, we aren’t the bad guys. How about equality or something like that being the line?
I agree and the comparison quickly turns into a red herring by defenders of the administration. It's an easy distraction that Trumpism vanishes behind once people end up arguing about the historical facts of Nazi Germany.
As I previously said, the Trump administration has done more than enough to be criticized on its own. Trump is buried in a gigantic pile of shit. Drop the comparison to Nazis and just hammer away at the specific illegal and unethical behavior over and over.
Separating children from their parents and locking them up in cages is a crime against humanity.
Evoking "go back to your country" to ethnic minorities in Congress is racist and a slap in the face to the Constitution.
Blatantly race baiting is unacceptable.
Blatantly lining your pockets with tax payer dollars is highly unethical.
Violating the emoluments clause is unethical and illegal.
Violating the Hatch Act is unlawful.
Lying every fucking day is unacceptable.
Keep it simple like Benghazi or her emails.

Necrobump cuz Orange man bad and his supporters are all Nazis! Punch them!
I agree with your sentiment. Comparing Trump and his supporters to Nazis isn't useful, actually it is counterproductive. The comparison comes off as hyperbole and causes people to tune it out.
The Trump administration has committed enough authoritarian acts that it warrants more than enough criticism without having to default to the Nazi label.

Interesting discussion. I think there is some truth to Gen-X favoring individualism and capitalism versus the Boomers and Millennials. Going from the latch key generation to entering the job market right as the landscape shifted away from career longevity to switching jobs every other year. I suspect the 90's Tech Bubble really fucked with a lot of our heads. Get what you can, while you can or get fucked. Anyways, we didn't create the culture that shaped our experiences, that was the generation that preceded us.

Don’t forget how he lamented the decline in manufacturing but made his money doing IT services and processing.
He was also fiercely anti-outsourcing but Perot Systems went all in on the outsourcing model by shipping a lot of jobs to India in the 2000's. The outsourcing was a natural growth for the IT services industry, so that couldn't be prevented. His political positions were not suited for the industry that made him a billionaire. Granted, nobody really knew how all of this would play out back in the day.
