    It’s a bit sad that the democrats are so milk toast and ineffective in their messaging that even the slightest pushback against republicans is referred to as Dark Brandon.

            Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive porpoises I think you are wrong.

            In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go. If you don’t tow the line you’ll never hone in on the truth. Gorilla warfare will be used against you if you don’t agree!

          Also eggcorn is argued by linguists as the natural progression of language, so calling it milk toast or milquetoast is a example of how language developes and really isn’t wrong since everyone understood what milk toast means and understands what milquetoast means.

      Al Gore was the canary in the coal mine for that party and generation. Milquetoast is being very polite.

        Are we just going to ignore 8 years of Obama? You can have your differences with him but he was far from ineloquent.

      Agreed.

      They should have never backed down on the Clinton comment calling them deplorable. They are.

    Biden was trying to “finish what FDR started” in addressing rural poverty, education and medical care, Greene said. She also accused Biden of trying to turn America socialist.

    “Socialist” is a good term to scare folks. (At least, folks over 50.) FDR…not so much.

    This should fall below the threshold of “things worth posting or writing an article about” tbh.
