[Minimalist]

[Faith No More]

or just a fucking bullshit artist?

I'm going to go with "total dipshit."

[Kitan Etos]

Is he not yet irrelevant in the scheme of politics?

[cratehorus]

it's not about irony or being a "bullshitter" republitwats use codewords to hide their real agendas and make them sound nice, cuddly, and fluffy, it's not anti-women or anti choice its "pro-life" it's not allowing the rich to do whatever they want its "deregulation" it's not giving billions of tax dollars to the wealthy it's "suporting our job creators" it's not rigging the voting system so that minorities and/or the poor don't get a vote it's "ensuring fairness and integrity in our electoral process"

[Minimalist]

Don't forget "the invisible hand of the market." That's another way of saying - "Fuck the poor."

Is he not yet irrelevant in the scheme of politics?

Not sure how comparing abortion with killing murderers makes sense.

Not sure how comparing abortion with killing murderers makes sense.

Those who call themselves pro-life are also pro-death penalty, which is a hypocrisy. Pro-lifers respect the sanctity of all life, even those who are murderers, and thus they should logically be against the death penalty.
