Until each and every Democratic Party member can walk up and back-slap Mitch McConnell, plant their knee in James Comey's crotch, and take Alito/Thomas/Roberts/Coney-Bitch/Gorsuch/Drunk Rapist to the woodshed and switch them for every time they broke the oath they swore to their "god", we will not curb our language because it makes you uncomfortable.

Spare us the "Oh, we are better than this!" But they are not! Holding to values and norms of a bygone age are all well and good, but if your adversary no longer does, you are a fool in every definition of the word. We will always be the victim to their actions until we stop being the "nice guy" and start fighting back in words and deeds.

Everyone who serves in the military swears an oath to defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC. Republicans are DOMESTIC enemies to our nation by word and deed. It is time for every lover of democracy to take that very same oath, close ranks and fight for it!
