    Why Do Democrats Keep Embracing George W. Bush?

    Lest we forget, Bush was an incredibly divisive president. He brought the country together for a fleeting moment after 9/11—then promptly frittered away all that goodwill by trusting his stupid gut and going his own way. He won reelection by slandering his war-hero opponent and stoking conservative fears about gay marriage. His line about being “a uniter, not a divider” was a long-standing joke. And his successor—who, for better and often for worse, seemed to genuinely believe in the ideal of national unity—rode a wave of anti-Bush fervor into the White House.

                  Look… A quick scan of your level of rhetoric and analysis, and I get that you don’t get that you dont know shit about shit when it comes to politics.

                  I get that you think you get it.

                  But I also know that you don’t.

                  So you not understanding the context or importance of a photo, its like, well of course this person wouldn’t get it. They aren’t’ here to get it. They have the equivalent of a micro penis for an analytical lens to analyse the world through. And its not their fault. Not everyone can be a jimmy big dick when it comes to understanding complex issues.

                    “Look… “ then mentions dick stuff…

                    I’m not sure wtf you’re getting at…

                    “A quick scan of my comments”… All this shows your own shit not mine.

                    The dick size stuff repeats that. Stop being weird! Bother with dicks on your own time. It’s really weird and I don’t need to bother with you and dicks.

                    Meanwhile keep posting a single photo a person hugging gwb and pretending that makes policy … keep harping on a photo and whining about dicks. That is clearly all you have.

          Hell no! I’m attacking your shitty logic based off a photo! You really are that dense?

          How dense do you have to be to see that photo as evidence of anything?
