Would be hard not to vote for her, even with some of her leftist views

Oahu Democrats vote to condemn Tulsi Gabbard over CPAC appearance
Tom George Feb 27, 2022

Her appearance was notable because she was a Democrat speaking at a mostly Republican and conservative event. this cannot be tolerated

The speech is drawing pushback from her own party back in Hawaii.

On Friday, the resolutions committee of the Oahu chapter of the Democratic Party voted 15-2 to condemn Gabbard for appearing at CPAC, and calling for an investigation over possible violations of party by-laws.

Biden outlined the severe medical symptoms that U.S. troops deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan endured from breathing in toxic fumes from "burn pits," saying many of the troops developed "a cancer that would put them in a flag-draped coffin."

"You put them in. Thirteen of them," Boebert then yelled, referring to the terrorist attack at a gate outside the Kabul airport last summer that killed 13 U.S. service members.

your party hard at work

I guess she didn't know what he was talking about

I had an email from the VA yesterday that VA will propose certain rare cancers be added to presumed service-connected list

They censured her and Kinzinger as punishment for sitting on the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurection and said the attack was “legitimate political discourse.”. They also removed her from Repub. leadership. Wy. Repub. voted to stop recognizing her as a Repub.

and what practical effect does censuring have?

if the voters choose to punish her, that’s how democracy works. Her job is to represent her constituents, and if they didn’t like her being in that committee or voting to impeach, then she has to face her voters for that.

She hates trump because he single handedly put a firm end to the bush/cheney legacy. the gop had a little civil war, and the bush/cheney/bolton wing lost.

that’s not to say that was the only reason why she did what she did. but in any event, it’s healthy if the voters hold her accountable for doing things they don’t like.

Actually the Republican Party had a war and the Conservative Wing lost to the Ethno-Nationalist Populist wing lead by Trump, bought and paid for by Putin.

So those are individuals - right? Not the Repub. party. Apples and Oranges.

The former U.S. president who today can’t stop admiring Putin’s supposed strength and cunning is the same sad man who, looking forward to the 2013 Miss Universe pageant in Moscow, mused about Putin becoming “my new best friend.” Best friend of Ukraine’s worst enemy.

Interesting the people some feel compelled to defend, but apparently the Nationalist Populist Trumplican Party is what they want.

Marjorie Taylor Greene said the GOP is finding it’s “identity,” and pledged to continue attacking Republicans.

MTG added that the GOP “should be leaning in to the Civil War” and will “come together once [they] figure out what works.”

i’m not defending her, i called her a kook.

i did ask you what she said that was racist. your response was to insult me, which probably means even you know she didn’t say anything racist but you can’t admit it. because truth doesn’t matter to you, unless it’s favorable to liberals.

Transgender girls and women now barred from female sports in Iowa

The tolerance is just overwhelming in the GOP

I am sure Iowa is overwhelmed with Trans female students smashing records across the State.
