Yeah I assume that's why the rules committee phone is down...though I wouldn't be surprised if they straight up unplugged it lol

Relevant to the discussion yesterday:

"And so this is the story. It’s not about Republicans and Democrats being “the same” or “just as bad,” and to the degree that anyone makes that claim, they’re wrong. The real story is about the lack of a choice that is remotely adequate. When they’re not sneering about “purity” or “being a grown up,” defenders of the Democrats tell us to pull the party left through activism and the primary process. This is precisely what Sanders Democrats attempted to do, and for their trouble they were not just defeated in the election, they were branded as sexists and racists, smeared as just as bad as Trump, called useful idiots for Vladimir Putin, and generally treated like pariahs. Lesser evilists never can articulate a remotely convincing narrative about how we improve our choice from the lesser evil to the greater good. And on issues like health care, the utter inadequacy of the lesser evil has been confirmed through the needless loss of human life.

So if you’re a Democrat and you’ve been feeling bruised by these fights, I hope you’d consider these dynamics. All the left is asking for is a choice that goes beyond bad and worse. A vastly better world is possible, but when the two party system funnels everyone into terribly unappealing options, of course you’ll find yourself with a rebellion. If you want to help the Democrats win, why not try doing all you can to force them to offer better alternatives?"

Now I have to stop watching Nintendo at E3 and being happy so I can watch the racist muppet and be miserable. Hopefully we get another "Oh shit, did I just commit perjury" GIF.

 

Every answer will be "I don't recall" or "I can't answer that."
