Rep. Lauren Boebert jokes about Rep. Ilhan Omar blowing up a bomb in the Capitol

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Today's Republican Party is solely about doing and saying the most vulgar and offensive things possible, rather than actually trying to legislate and make peoples' lives better. It needs to be burned to the ground.

tbh Boebert is like my homophobic aunt- nobody would come out to her (in my case as bi, in their case as Biden voters).

Then again her reasonable family members (all who voted Biden) abandoned this lunatic years ago, probably around when she gave birth in a truck on the freeway.

The GOP was burned to the ground in 2006/2008 and that didn’t make the party more moderate , it made them go further right as that provided an opening for the tea party. You guys need to realize that any right of center party in the US would not only be like the GOP but even more “extreme” if it started from new .

Not that part, that's normal for people without means.

I was talking about the overt classism in your post, and the implication that people should abandon family members they disagree with on politics.

When I was a teenager I was a militant atheist and a vocal, in-your-face liberal. I wish I had been more kind to my family back then. Fortunately I was able to mature and when I see them I get along and can discuss those topics.

The entire idea of abandoning family members is very dark.

God I hope she doesn’t have any LGBT family members

I have an LGBT family member.  She's quietly joined the anti-Biden coalition with her girlfriend, and no longer wears a mask while driving. lol.

MAGA terrorists backed by Boebert planted bombs at the DNC and RNC before the insurrection.

Terrorisms is fine as long as you are a white Trump cultist.

The words "some people did something" will never be forgotten when it comes to Ilhan Omar.

As I've said, I don't like Boebert, and her comments here were reprehensible, but that doesn't mean Ilhan Omar is someone to be praised either. I don't like her either, and I think Congress would be better off if neither of them were there.

I’m not saying you have to like Omar but the “some people did something” attack on her is done in bad faith to rewrite her argument about Muslims as a whole being turned into borderline 2nd class citizens post-9/11 into claiming she was trying to say 9/11 wasn’t a big deal

It is certainly true that much of the sentiment against Omar is Islamophobic in nature, as can be seen with Boebert's comments. But I think there should be a consensus that Congress would be better served by not having either as a member of the body. And on balance, I'd say there are a greater number of objectionable Republicans serving then there are Democrats.

Lauren Boebert uses story of giving birth in a truck to attack parental leave

When I was a teenager I was a militant atheist and a vocal, in-your-face liberal.

Wow, what went wrong?

I went to college in California, was surrounded by people with similar beliefs who were equally if not more vocal about them, and realized how insufferable they were (and by extension I was).

I’m still an atheist but there’s really no reason for me to talk about it. And I’m as if not more liberal on abortion and LGBT (well it was gay marriage in particular back then), the issues du jour of the mid-00s (first voted in 04). But being surrounded by rich technocratic neoliberals spurred on my transformation into someone whose worldview is about improving the lives of the American poor/working class/lower middle class (particularly those left behind by change).

That...should still place you firmly in the democratic party and certainly not inspire you to vote for Trump. Pretty much everything the Biden administration is trying to do will improve the lives of exactly those people.
