I Didn't Say It

Joe Scarborough, Morning Joe host, taking on Steve Scalise as an outright liar saying Nancy Pelosi didn’t do enough to protect the capital on January 6 when he was in the room with her:

“You know, I’m just a dumb country lawyer, but they asked the question after Steve Scalise had known the answer. So he said, ‘That’s a great question, why won’t they answer whether Nancy Pelosi called the National [Guard]. This is so terrible and they won’t answer.’ He was in the room; he was in the room where it happened … I’m serious about this, I couldn’t imagine in a million years holding a press conference as a member of Congress … being that cynical, lying through my teeth on an issue—on any issue, but especially an issue of this importance. And even if for some reason I had fallen off a scooter the day before and I was dizzy, there would have literally been 12 people on my staff grabbing me saying, ‘You can’t do that, go back into your office, you need to tell them you’re not going to do this.' I don’t understand. All the barriers that were up when you and I were there, all the rules that were in place, just rules of common decency, not going out and lying through your teeth, my God, on issues this important.”

Steve Scalise has no balls and no spine; he will simply tow the party line always and look like a fool and liar while he does it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene—or as Uptonking calls her, Empty G—claimed during a recent debate that she’s a victim of the January 6 attack:

“You cannot accuse me of insurrection. I was a victim of the January 6 riot just as much as any other member of Congress. That was the third day I had on the job. I had nothing to do with what happened there that day, and I will not have you accuse me of that.”

And yet she asked Thing 45 for a pardon on her third day in office. Why, Marge? Greene, a conspiracy theorist who has spoken at white nationalist event’s, has sympathized with the rioters, calling them “political prisoners,” and visited some in what she called the “patriots wing” of the District of Columbia Jail.

Doesn’t sound like a victim, sounds like a traitorous insurrectionist bitch.

Sean Hannity, telling Senate nominee Don Bolduc, and others in the GOP, to refuse to answer the abortion question:

“As a US Senator, based on the Dobbs decision, you will have no say on [abortion] at all whatsoever. But they’ve tried to drag you, you know, into that discussion. Your personal beliefs are your personal beliefs, but it’s going to be the people of every state that will decide through their locally elected representatives, the state representatives, not through you. I think the media needs this answer going forward: ‘I’ve answered that question a thousand times. That’s a decision that will be decided by the state. Next question, please.’ And move on. Because that’s what the media does. They do the bidding for the Democrats and they ask their questions.”

Wrong again, Sean. The Senate works for We The People, and we have a right to know where they stand on every issue, and if they choose not to answer then vote them out of office.

See, Sean, you moron, if Biden tries to codify a woman’s right to choose into law,  then Senators like Don Bolduc, will have to vote on it and we have the right to know where they stand.

Marco Rubio, Florida’s favorite foam party boy and Republican, at a debate with Val Demings, on drop boxes:

“That’s a method of voting that doesn’t advantage one group or another. There’s danger involved in drop boxes. People need to think about it. Okay, imagine someone decides, ‘Oh there’s a drop box I’m just going to put some explosive in it and blow it up and burn all of those ballots.’ And now those votes don’t count at all.”

Hey Little Marco? You sound like a child who has no idea what’s going on. And you’re trying to spread fear and conspiracies in case you lose the election.

Small man, Marco, small man.

Evan McMullin, an independent running for the US Senate against incumbent Mike Lee in Utah, tying his opponent to The Big Lie:

“You said the president should listen to legal quack Sydney Powell, ‘Please make time for her, let her in,’ you told the White House chief of staff. You told the president that you were working overtime—14 hours a day, I think you said—to unravel this for him, to keep a president who had been voted out of office according to the will of the people in power despite the will of the people. Senator Lee, it is a betrayal of the American republic. You were there to stand up for our constitution, but when the barbarians were at the gate you were happy to let them in.”

Lee is a coward who wants to ride the coattails of a traitor back into office. Good on McMullin for calling him out.

Jamie Lee Curtis, actor and mother of a trans daughter, on the current anti-transgender climate in the US:

“I have a trans daughter. There are threats against her life, just her existence as a human being. There are people that want to annihilate her and people like her. The level of hatred, as if we haven’t learned from fascism, as if we haven’t learned what the result of that is: the extermination of human beings. That is terrifying. So Jamie Lee Curtis is scared and you should be too. And Jamie Lee Curtis has a voice and she’s trying to use it, and you should too. And that’s how we change things.”

Stand up, speak up, and vote. Otherwise you’re doing nothing to stop the hate and are, in fact, goose-stepping right along with it.

I Didn't Say It

Jon Stewart, comedian, former “Daily Show” host and activist, taking on Ted Cruz for voting No on the PACT bill, and the subsequent passing of the bill:

"I'm used to lies. I'm used to hypocrisy. I'm used to their cowardice. I'm not used to the cruelty [for a bill] … they had fought for, for more than a decade. The bill that Ted Cruz voted yes on had the exact same funding provisions as the bill he voted no on. It’s the exact same bill. None of this makes any sense. That is just a word salad that he's spewing into his coffee cup on his way to God knows where. All cowards. All of them … I’m not sure I’ve ever seen this situation where people who have already given so much had to fight so hard to get so little. I hope we learned a lesson.”

The bill finally passed this week though these eleven Republicans voted ‘No’: Mitt Romney, Rand Paul, Mike Crapo, James Lankford, Mike Lee, Cynthia Lumis,  James Risch, Richard Shelby, Pat Toomey, Tommy Turberville, Thom Tillis.

Note that Rafael Cruz voted ‘Yes’ this time though not one thing changed about the bill after he voted ‘No’ and then fist-bumped his fellow ReTHUGlicans.

Whoopi Goldberg, on the passing of pioneering actor Nichelle Nichols who inspired her to appear in ‘Star Trek’:

“Nichelle Nichols was a trailblazer, a heroine, and an extraordinary woman—somebody who inspired millions and millions of people, but who inspired me because I explained when I went to get my gig at ‘Star Trek’ that Nichelle was the first Black person I’d ever seen who made it to the future. She was head of communications. And this show and this woman was the one beacon that said, ‘Yes, we’ll be there.’ And it just made me feel like that was an amazing thing. She helped propel other women to go into space. She was extraordinary and I was lucky enough to spend time with her over the years. She was my friend. She’ll be missed.”

As in many cases, people of color stand on  the shoulders of those who came before them, and help the next generation step up. Nichelle did that for Whoopi, and Whoopi paid it forward.

Rest in Power.

Joe Scarborough, MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe,’ on that stunning rejection by Kansas voters of an amendment that would have allowed state legislators to ban abortion:

“I think it’s an example a lot of people who identified themselves as pro-life looking at what happened since Roe was overturned. Looking at the extremism, looking at the 10-year-old girl being chased from the state, looking at the Texas attorney general fighting for the right to let mothers die on the operating table, to tear away the protections that the federal government is trying to put in place to protect moms to have a choice whether they die on an operating table or not. You look at all of the extremities, and now again in another Republican state legislature trying to give the right to members of a rapist’s family to sue a rape victim for $20,000 unless she has a forced pregnancy. This is a rapist’s bill of rights that Republicans are passing, a rapists’ bill of rights for forced childbirth on children.”

The vote made Kansas one of the only red states where abortion remains legal after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. And it might just be the first because SCOTUS and the GOP’s rapidly increasing radicalism—Don’t Say Gay, don’t honor police officers, vote against healthcare for vets, ban books, attack drag queens—has pissed off a lot of people on both sides.

Mitch McConnell, Senate Minority Leader, walking back his expectations about how many Senate seats are likely to flip in the midterm election:

“I think it’s going to be very tight. We have a 50-50 nation. And I think when this Senate race smoke clears, we’re likely to have a very, very close Senate still, with us up slightly or the Democrats up slightly.”

I think Mitch maybe trying to play both sides. We do not have a 50-50 nation; there are more democrats than Republican and when we vote, we win. And the four years terrorist reign  of Thing 45, coupled with this radical SCOTUS, and the GOP’s culture wars on everything that isn’t white and Christian and straight, has angered Democrats and Independents and women and the LGBTQ+ community.

I Didn't Say It ...


_____, once again deflecting blame for his administration’s horrific response to the COVID-19  pandemic:

“Well, I’ll be honest, I have a lot of things going on. We had a lot of people that refused to allow the country to be successful. They wasted a lot of time on Russia, Russia, Russia. That turned out to be a total hoax. Then they did Ukraine, Ukraine, and that was a total hoax. Then they impeached the president of the United States for absolutely no reason.”

So, he was busy? Golfing? Holding campaign rallies?
Or was it that he was busy defending himself from being a traitor to his country?
Either way, nearly 70,000 Americans died because he can’t multi-task.
Joe Scarborough, Morning Joe, ripping into _____ after an early morning tweet from the president calling for a 2001 cold case against the MSNBC anchor to be reopened:

“I know you meant to be extraordinarily cruel to me by attacking me, by bringing up a conspiracy theory that has lived in the gutters of the internet for some time now. But just like the Seth Rich conspiracy murder that was pushed by your allies, you don’t understand the pain you cause to families who have already lost a loved one. This weekend, my god, you were supposed to have a working weekend. You got it wrong again. You said 50,000 deaths, 60,000 deaths, now you said 100,000 deaths. What did you do during your working weekend? Well, you tweeted more hateful things about colleagues of ours, you tweeted conspiracy theories about Jeffrey Epstein. Really, you have time for this? You tweeted conspiracy theories about Barack Obama. Really, you have time for this? You attacked George W. Bush for simply sending out a unifying message to give Americans hope. He said positive things about Americans, he said positive things about health care workers, he said positive things about this country. He said, ‘We choose to rise’—even that offended you. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that a man who was offended by a former president, calling all Americans of all parties together in this time of crisis, would be offended by that. Because after all, you’re the same president of the United States who celebrated the return of a murderous dictator, Kim Jong-un. Mr. President, I ask that you get checked out. Mr. President, you’re getting worse every day. You need to take a rest. You need to let Mike Pence actually run things for the next couple of weeks. And come back when you’re feeling a little better and when you can really actually focus on your job. You just can’t do that right now. And Americans are dying every day because of it.”

I think Joe nailed it, except for that whole put pence in charge thing. Pence is as scary as _____ because of his rabid evangelicalism and his rabid goose-stepping alongside _____.
PS The case _____ mentioned involved the death of an intern in Scarborough’s congressional office in 2001 and was deemed accidental.
Nino Vitale, Ohio state Republican—because, of course—Representative, on how wearing a mask to slow the spread of the disease would violate his “Judeo-Christian Principles”:

“This is the greatest nation on earth founded on Judeo-Christian Principles. One of those principles is that we are all created in the image and likeness of God. That image is seen the most by our face. I will not wear a mask. It is time to do what Preble County did, ignore the unelected Dr. Acton’s orders, open your counties now, before it’s too late. This is not based on logic, this is based on fear and propaganda and every statistical, data driven study done in the last 2 weeks says death counts are low, the models were wrong, and this is more like the flu.”

This is what crazy sounds like. This is what stupid sounds like.
And, again, while the flu may kill 25000, that’s in a year, or roughly 68 people a day. COVID-19 is killing between 1000 and 2000 or more people every single day.
That is not the flu, asshat.
Sean Hannity, Fox “News” asshat, on those reopening protests:

“Now, no one is a bigger defender of the Second Amendment than yours truly. Everyone has the right to protest, protect themselves, and try to get the country open. This with the militia look here and these long guns, uh, no. Show of force is dangerous. That puts our police at risk. And by the way, your message will never be heard, whoever you people are. No one should be attempting to intimidate officials with a show of force. And God forbid something happens, they’re going to go after all of us law-abiding Second Amendment people.”

I’ve a feeling Hell just froze over because Hannity makes sense.
Not about reopening because that’s just dumb, but about these terrorists masquerading as protestors.
Don Lemon, needling _____ about his retweet of a conspiracy theory about President Barack Obama:

“What is it about President Obama that really gets under your skin? Is it because he’s smarter than you? Better educated? Made it on his own; didn’t need daddy’s help? Wife is more accomplished? Better looking? I don’t know, what is it? What is it about him? That he’s a black man that’s accomplished, became president? That he punked you on the whole birth certificate thing? What is it about him? Just wondering…”

It’s all of that, and the fact that _____ needs a racist base to boost his ego.
PS The conspiracy is that Obama was behind the investigation into Russia.
Larry Kudlow, White House economic adviser, defending his asshatted assertion in late February that the coronavirus pandemic had been contained “pretty close to airtight”:

“Well, look, Jake, for the umpteenth time I will say, my quote then was based on the actual facts—which at the time there were only 40 or 50 cases and it was contained—particularly after President _____ boldly put up travel restrictions with China. I didn’t make a forecast …  I don’t want to get in and play this game, who said what and when. My quote was at that time, there were very few cases. Then, as the virus spread exponentially in ways that virtually no one could have predicted, of course we changed our mind.”

You said it was contained … and then 65000+ Americans died you ignorant fuckmonkey.
Denis Finnegan, an  Irish athlete and 10-time national track and field champion, has come out as gay:

“For younger people it will hopefully give them more confidence in what they’re doing. There are still people who are scared or unsure of what’s happening, so I hope just telling my story might help one person notice there’s more acceptance out there. [Track and field]  was always my favorite sport, it was always the sport that was the one that was the most open. I’d be training with girls, I’d be training with guys, and I think that did help a bit. I was never worried about any kind of comments on the track … It’s all a process; there’s no perfect timeline … it’s all whenever you are ready and it’s all whenever you’re ready to tell certain people. … While you’re competing all those years, [coming out] was just never to the forefront of my mind that this was something I needed to do, and I think the older I get the more I realized that actually no, it’s just very important that actually we do get it out there. It’s about using the platform when I can to show that this is out there, that I’m out there, and that hopefully just helps someone out there.”

I have always said that anyone who comes out helps someone else take that step, whether in the public eye or in the workplace or in your own neighborhood.
Coming out helps us all. And so, please accept as our gift from HOMO HQ The Official Coming Out Toaster Oven™ and a copy of the Gay Agenda.
Welcome out.

I Didn't Say It ...


Dan Reynolds, Imagine Dragons frontman, accepting the award for Top Rock Artist at the Billboard Music Awards and using the time to call for an end to gay conversion therapy:

“I just want to take this moment to say that there are still 34 states that have no laws banning conversion therapy. 34. And on top of that, 58% of our LGBTQ population live in those states. This can change but it’s going to take all of us talking to our state legislation, pushing forward laws to protect our LGBTQ youth. And lastly, I just want to say we have seen with conversion therapy that our LGBTQ youth have doubled the rate of depression, tripled the rate of suicide after conversion therapy. It’s not working. It needs to change.”

And speaking out at events like this gets that message out there.
Thanks Dan.
Matt Easton, a political science student and practicing Mormon at Brigham Young University, came out as gay during his commencement speech:

“I stand before my family, friends, and graduating class today to say that I am proud to be a gay son of God. I am not broken. I am loved and important in the plan of our Great Creator. Each of us are. Four years ago, it would have been impossible for me to imagine that I would come out to my entire college. It is a phenomenal feeling. And it is a victory for me in and of itself.”

When Easton came out to that crowd, that predominantly Mormon crowd, they cheered him.
I wonder how the actual Church felt?
Roseanne Barr, trying to stay relevant by being irrelevant:

“Uh, the word ‘fag’ is a really hateful word, isn’t it? Especially when it’s like one gay calling another gay guy that? Whoo! Have you ever been in the middle of one of them hate marriages? Whoof! It’s like, (mimicking an argument) ‘wait a minute, we’re not supposed to say that word.’ ‘How come you’re saying that word?’ ‘What?’ Oh, I just can’t say the word. Well, I can when I’m in the house, but I can’t say it outside of the house. Okay, I get your rules. But it is a hateful word and we should get rid of it,” added Barr. “Get rid of it being spoken. All that LGBTQ stuff, okay let me just be real, I put the Q in LGBTQ. Okay? Cause I am queer as two motherf**kers. I’m queer, I’m alien, I don’t belong here with all these people. They makes no sense. They are very queer. And that makes me a queer, I guess. But I did put the Q in it. Bye!”

I think she put the Q in “She Quit taking her meds.”
Bernie Sanders, presidential hopeful, saying everyone should have the right to vote … even the Boston Marathon bomber:

“This is a democracy and we have got to expand that democracy, and I believe every single person does have the right to vote. Yes, even for terrible people, because once you start chipping away and you say, 'Well, that guy committed a terrible crime, not going to let him vote. Well, that person did that. Not going to let that person vote,' you're running down a slippery slope ... terrorists and murderers should have voting rights. So I believe people commit crimes and they paid the price and they have the right to vote. I believe even if they're in jail they're paying their price to society but that should not take away their inherent American right to participate in our democracy."

Um, Bernie, there’s a crime, like I stole a car, or I sold some weed, and then there’s a crime like I set off a bomb to murder and maim Americans.
One deserves the right to vote, one does not.
Andy McKean, Iowa’s longest-serving Republican state lawmaker, on his defection to the Democratic Party because _____:

“With the 2020 presidential election looming on the horizon, I feel, as a Republican, that I need to be able to support the standard bearer of our party. Unfortunately, that’s something I’m unable to do. He sets, in my opinion, a poor example for the nation and particularly for our children by personally insulting—often in a crude and juvenile fashion—those who disagree with him, being a bully at a time when we are attempting to discourage bullying, his frequent disregard for the truth and his willingness to ridicule or marginalize people for their appearance, ethnicity or disability. I believe that it is just a matter of time before our party pays a heavy price for President _____’s reckless spending and shortsighted financial policies, his erratic, destabilizing foreign policy and his disregard for environmental concerns. If this is the new normal, I want no part of it.”

I say, ‘What took you so long,’ but I also say, ‘Welcome.’
The move puts Iowa Democrats four seats away from taking control of the Iowa House.
Joe Scarborough, going off on religious hypocrite Franklin Graham, who called on Pete Buttigieg to repent for being gay.

“Just shut up Franklin Graham! You are a disgrace! You are a disgrace for normalizing Donald _____’s behavior … Here’s a man, who along with so many people in my community, the evangelical community, attacked Bill Clinton for his personal failings [yet] they are now using their … positions to gain political power and apologize for Donald _____. Now suddenly Franklin Graham’s talking about lifestyles and sinning, and a guy who has gone through a very difficult personal journey to figure out who he really is, he’s criticizing them for that? It’s not a lifestyle choice. Anyone who’s heard Pete Buttigieg talk knows that.”

Graham is exactly what’s wrong with so-called men of faith these days; their faith is less about god, and more about money and power; those are their real gods.
Sam Donaldson, veteran journalist, on Lying Bag of Flesh, Sarah Huckabee Sanders and others in the White House for their transparent lying:

“Look, I’ve had the pleasure of working with almost every press secretary beginning with Pierre Salinger of John F. Kennedy’s administration and, except for Ron Ziegler who lied for Richard Nixon, I’ve never seen anything like this with Sarah Sanders … Sarah Sanders simply lies about everything taking a cue from her boss. Not just one thing. I think she’s had an Oscar, a lifetime achievement Oscar for lying. I feel a little sorry for her because it’s the boss who does it. She takes the cue from him. Leadership begins at the top. And so it is all the bad things that happen in the administration.”

We all know that _____ passed off his 10,000th lie earlier this week, and Kellyanne and Huck aren’t far behind.
James Clyburn, Democratic Congressman from South Carolina, on _____ talking idiotically again about Charlottesville and celebrating Robert E. Lee:

"Robert E. Lee was a slave owner and a brutal slave master. Thankfully, he lost that war. And I find it kind of interesting that the president is now glorifying a loser, he always said that he hated losers."

The president is a racist liar, so, yeah, there’s that.

I Didn't Say It ....


Mitt Romney, GOP Senator from Utah, has called on Congressman  Steve King, the Republican from Iowa,  to resign after King asked why the term “white supremacist” was considered offensive:

“I think he ought to step aside and I think Congress ought to make it very clear he has no place there.” 

Mittsy’s positioning himself as the anti-_____ for 2020, y’all.
Mitch McConnell, GOP Senate Majority Leader, also slammed King over those remarks:

“There is no place in the Republican Party, the Congress or the country for an ideology of racial supremacy of any kind. I have no tolerance for such positions and those who espouse these views are not supporters of American ideals and freedoms. Rep. King’s statements are unwelcome and unworthy of his elected position.”

Who knew McConnell was such a comedian, because he clearly has no problem with a ‘some Nazi’s are fine people’ president.
Kevin Hart, who just a month ago vowed not to take up the issue again,  is once again discussing the backlash to his anti-gay jokes and tweets that cost him his position of host of the Oscars:

"It's like, what state of the world do you want comedy to go to? Because ultimately, if we keep pushing in this direction, you're gonna have comics that don't know what's safe to talk about, and now the conversation has changed to people aren't funny anymore because everybody's afraid to be funny. So what level can they be funny? ... We're taking away the ability for people to be comfortable. Everybody. Workplace, work environments, from professional to any aspect of life, now. Everybody's walking on their toes. Everybody's walking on glass. Everybody is!"

Well, Kevin, let’s talk funny …beating a child? You find funny. Beating a child because you’re afraid he might be gay? You find funny.
But people who have had gay friends, gay sons, gay daughters, beaten to death for being gay, aren’t laughing.
But you don’t get it because you’re a one-note, one-laugh, one mind-frame comedic hack.
Siddown.
Joe Scarborough, blasting Miss Pitty Pat, AKA South Carolina’s GOP Senator Lindsey Graham for morally bankrupting himself to serve _____:

“We’re watching the political, ideological and moral collapse of my old Republican Party. Make no mistake, Donald _____’s amorality is driving this collapse, but his Republican allies on Capitol Hill and in powerful positions across America are too eager and too willing to be his accomplices. I’ve known Lindsey for years, we came in together in Congress in 1994, and Lindsey was always considered to be one of the most genial, reasonable and measured members of Congress. As a presidential candidate in 2016, he routinely warned us of the moral rot that the election of Donald _____ as the party’s nominee would bring to the Republican Party, and he said that unhinged Manhattan developer would destroy the GOP if he were elected. Well, Lindsey was right then, but now he’s one of the administration’s leading henchman in hatching plots to run roughshod over our nation’s traditions and turn the party into a rudderless collection of mini-me Donald _____s. That same Lindsey Graham who actually followed John McCain’s lead for so long is actually the Republican who is using his position as Senate chairman of the Judiciary Committee to encourage Donald Trump to declare a national emergency and illegally seize Article I powers if he doesn’t get his way on the border wall. Think about that for a second, and it is illegal, it will be overturned by the Supreme Court of the United States, and if Lindsey Graham doesn’t know that, then he shouldn’t even be in Congress.”

As I like to tell Miss Pitty Pat on Twitter, I think his sudden ass-smacking loyalty to _____ is because maybe the Russians have something on Miss Lindsey … like she was one of the Russian hookers who peed on _____.
Kevin Hassett, _____’s top economic adviser, says federal workers are “better off” because of the  shutdown:

“A huge share of government workers were going to take vacation days, say between Christmas and New Year’s, and then we have a shutdown, and so they can’t go to work. So then they have the vacation, but they don’t have to use their vacation days[thus] in some sense they’re better off.”

I have an idea, asshat, you get shutdown; you get told you cannot go to work and can’t, or won’t, get paid. Better yet, you be one of those government workers who still has to work but isn’t getting paid and see how you lie it, you self-entitled bastard.
Oh, and fuck off.
Janeane Garofalo, standing up for sexual predator Louis CK:

“Leave Louis C.K. alone. Enough with that. And again, there are so many issues we gotta be motivated on. He’s been my friend―and I stand by that―he’s been my friend since 1985, and I think he has suffered… And when he performs at the Comedy Cellar and people get all irate, if nothing else, care about his daughters. If nothing else―if you can find no compassion for him, which I think you should―think about how his daughters, who hear all of this stuff, feel. Why don’t you leave him alone for them if you’re so women-empowering?”

Well, Janeane …your “friend” spent years jerking off in front of women and then denying it ever happened. Your “friend” denigrates anyone whose sexual orientation he doesn’t like, like trans people and gender fluid people.
That’s not funny, unless you’re Kevin Hart, or Louis CK, or, apparently Janeane Garofalo.
Lindsey Graham, Miss Pitty Pat from South Carolina, worked herself into a tizzy when Fox News  host Chris Wallace asked him about the GOP’s course of action should Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg vacate her seat:

"Well number one, I wish her well and hope she recovers and continues to serve for many years but here's what will happen if there's a vacancy, no matter if from the liberal wing of the court. There will be a lot of pushback from the left. But my Democrat colleagues felt, when they were in charge, we should confirm judges by a majority vote. They changed the rules to accommodate President Obama, they tried to stack the court, they never thought [Hillary Clinton] would lose. I will urge the president to nominate a qualified conservative. Hopefully that person will get through and I expect it to be along party lines. And this is what happens when you change the rules. This has come back to bite them, I predicted it would, and we’ll see. I'm going to be hell-bent to replace [a vacated seat] with a conservative, whoever steps down for whatever reason."

Well, isn’t it funny how she goes from saying the Democrats tried bending the rules to get their way, but then says she’ll do the same exact thing? This from a member of a party who refused, because they’re a bunch of tight-assed old white men who realize that if the country were more liberal, they’d all be out of jobs, to even give a hearing for Merrick Garland?
Oh, Miss Pitty Pat, I am gonna work so hard to see that your flabby, ALLEGEDLY gay ass is removed from office in 2020.
Oh, and fuck off.
