      I always assumed it was blood pressure problems. You can’t be a republican politician without being outwardly irrationally angry all the time.

      A lot of them are from the south and it wouldn’t surprise me if very few of them wear sunscreen since most of their policy positions are from before it was invented.

    I wouldn’t be too smug considering how little daylight there tends to be between R/D foreign policy. In fact there’s a great example currently of Mr. Biden giving full support to Israel’s campaign of “burning flesh”.

      Ahh yes, so little daylight. Wanting Russia to roll over Ukraine and wanting to supply Ukraine… Sooo little daylight there!

        I didn’t say “no daylight”, just very little. The meme is specifically referencing Iran, which is a favorite villain of both R/D congress-critters. Similarly, it’s hard to imagine either party changing much support for Saudi Arabia or Israel, no matter how brutal their genocides.

      Right it was a Democrat president who ordered the military marched into the Middle East based on completely made up information only to kill millions 🙄

        Of course Bush and Cheney led the USA into the oil wars, along with the other neocons behind them, but then Obama campaigned on an anti-war platform and after being elected President, Obama continued those wars for years instead of ending them. Obama [D], the commander in chief of the military, continued those wars throughout his presidency.

        So yes this is very much a “both sides” issue and we need to fix that.
