"Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them"





Hillary Clinton to CBS: "This opinion is dark. It is incredibly dangerous. And it is not just about a woman's right to choose, it is about much more than that. And I hope people now are fully aware of what we're up against, because the only answer is at the ballot box."

So was The Truth, With Jokes.

I also thought Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot was hilarious. (And I'm glad he's still dead)

Getting him kicked out of the Senate was such a victory for the MAGAts and a tremendous loss to us. Any Democrat who helped with that should be deeply ashamed.

Alito, 2006: "Roe v. Wade is an important precedent of the Supreme Court."
What we DIDN'T hear is: "And I can't wait to overturn it!"

Gorsuch, 2017: "That's the law of the land. I accept the law of the land."
What he DIDN'T say is: "I also accept that if it is my power to reverse the law of the land, you bet yer ass I won't hesitate to do so."

Kavanaugh, 2018: "It is settled as a precedent of the Supreme Court."
What he DIDN'T say is: "I will do everything in my power to unsettle that precedent, first chance i get."

Coney Barrett: "Roe v. Wade clearly held that the Constitution protected a woman's right to terminate a pregnancy."
What she DIDN'T say was: "I, on the other hand, clearly hold that the Constitution protects no such thing."

Now we know that not even Republican judges/justices have integrity.

But I'm glad to know they are so wonderfully religious, sarcastically speaking.

A Republican just won a primary from jail after murdering his wife after her last chemo. WTF
