-I think that at this point, it's a safe assumption that anyone running for office as a Republican is a giant POS until proven otherwise.

Nobody is going to bother to prove to you or anyone else they aren't a POS.

There are thousands of republicans in State houses, governor mansions, and in DC.

They'll just to live with your disappointment in them for being a republican.

Perhaps this doesn't make sense to you but the vast majority of folks who choose to serve in their state legislature or even in DC have roots, live, work, have families, friends, business interests, etc...inside the region/district they represent. It's where they want to be and if they are going to choose to serve, it has to be the district where they are standing in right now.

If you understand that, then you'll understand that those who choose to serve have to live with the political leaning of that area. IOW, if you want to get elected, you better know which party you'll be in. You seem to think those folks get to choose which party they can be in and expect to win. Or, if they really want to serve, they should just move to an area that better fits their political ideology. No ------- way.

I realize this place is a safe space for some of you to spew such absurd drama and hyperbole........but geez.

"they claim to be righteous and moral"

IOW, they are exactly the same as you.

Seems like an odd thing to judge them for

Let's just stick to our roles here. You stick to being a drama queen and I'll stick to laughing at it.

"The people who do that are people who have stuff to hide or try to explain away."

"the people". Incorrect. You declared they're all that way. All of them. They're all rapists, infidels, etc.

And it's on them to prove they're not.....because you need it that way.

Again, this isn't about some ------- this thread is supposed to be about. You drug it to every single person holding public office that doesn't have a "D" beside their name. You believe they all deserve some extra scrutiny because YOU declared it so.

I'll bet you've never met a single person who represents you in your State legislature or in Washington DC

Not one. ever.

You're just an angry little boy who needs a safe space to scream "---- you" and "----" and "Chreestian" all you want.

And it is a safe space except for that I'm not allowing you do have so much fun doing this.

Again, if you knew how the world works you'd know that many folks who serve are good people, regardless of their political affiliation.

But you don't understand that. You're a child. You're a left-wing version of Shrimptacodan.

"the high frequency"

you mean hyperactive, agenda driven social media?

Wow, you still haven't figured out you need to take the internet with a grain of salt.

anything to get you through the day.

I personally know legislators. I know their families. You don't know shit. You have this place and few other destinations on the internet you use to feed you what you want to hear.

"You steppin' out with the farmer's wives after you sell them insurance?"

You know better than that. I don't give that vibe and you know it. You're just running from this because you're whipped. defeated. embarrassed really.

You'll resort to throwing that at me rather than just admit I'm interfering with your happy time.

-Don't declare yourself morally superior as a qualification for office and you won't have so far to fall.

So, you think the size of the lie matters? It doesn't to liars. Liars like this who run for office acting morally superior aren't interested in the distance to fall. Any fall is the same to them.

If you're weren't intellectually in the 4th grade, you'd know that.

let me know when you graduate from high school. maybe we can talk then.

Those of you who live on the internet rather than the real world are being brainwashed to believe everyone who runs for office is out of an episode of the Lifetime Channel. Liars and cheats and living multiple lives.

Geez......get out into the real world for once.
