Church is not essential

The GOP is acting like "We don't give a fuck if 1 million people die , we are holding this convention come hell or high water."

Unless you cite a source we will assume this is nothing more than your rabid bias.

It wasn’t meant to be a ‘gotcha’. Sorry if it came off that way.

I didn't take it as a "gotcha". Sorry if I came across that way.

You gave me pause, and I thought, "Oh shit", so I did a google search, and damned if you were not correct. I posted the link to say you were correct.

But I still think between the two parties Dems are far more likely to step back than the GOP to do the right thing. But this does bother me because long term, even outside this virus, it has always disappoints me when Dems try to compete with them, instead of standing up to them.

Dems lose a lot of elections trying to compete on their narrative.

That is just as frightening too.

So if the Dems go ahead with the DNC - and the GOP cancels theirs - we can count on you voting ( R )?

This isn't a fucking game of chess. Don't want any party taking needless risks, and unfortunately right now, it seems everyone is in a rush to put Wall Street over lives.

Both parties want the economy to be open, I do too. But only one party is for now, leading the charge to get stupid. 

But if you must know, if Romney were running against Trump, and not Biden, and those were my only choices, I would vote for Romney. I was proud of him standing up to Trump, and despite being in a deeply conservative state, he has implemented some very liberal policies, like tackling homelessness. 

Dems in congress since Reagan, gave up after he successfully busted the air traffic control unions. And ever since instead of standing up to Republicans, we far to often stupidly let them control the narrative, and let them call us commies and fascists, we stupidly back off and try to sound like them.

I simply don't want the Democrats in congress to repeat that pattern, especially now, with this virus.

I guess OLB’s question was harder than I thought.

Is this thread about church attendance being essential?

No, it’s about political conventions. Try to keep up.

I took a nap.  I missed the U-turn in the thread.
