As I've seen a few "what I'd like Kamala to say" posts. I've got one. [View all]

I realize that sounds misogynistic. And yes, 53 year old (ugh) white male here. But I’m talking stump speech stuff here and we did the same going back to every presidential candidate going back to Kerry when I came here two years before that.

It is high, motherfuckingtime, that we took back love of country and patriotism from these people. It’s complete bull shit.

I’d kill to see Kamala or Uncle Tim raise the point. “The GOP claims love of country and Patriotism as their property. But I call B.S.
They hate:
Gays
Transgendered
Blacks
Latinos
Women of all colors
Immigrants
Atheists
Unions
Science, history, economics and every expert in these fields
The military (and I’d highlight the votes against burn pit $$$ and that they let payday lenders raise the interest they charge on military)
School lunches, now
Childless couples and single people
And the list goes on! What does the GOP love about this country? That’s more than half the country! I guess it’s like Obama said, they’re clinging to guns and religion.”

Boom!

Sorry to offend the squeamish here, but I’m erect just thinking about that type of speech. And it’s long overdue.
