When the time comes, they will get on board, just like they always do. The only appropriate and convincing response would have come ages ago and went something like “are you a fucking lunatic?”
- aebtebeten 9mo agoTillis doesn't put it quite so bluntly, but he comes close: > “I’m sick of stupid,” a fiery Tillis declared in the Senate. ... he told his colleagues that Miller’s comments were “absurd.” > “Mr. Miller said that the US government – obviously Greenland should be part of the US. That is absurd,” he said. > Tillis also ... “What makes me cranky? Stupid. ... I mean, he's a politician, so he tries to throw Miller under the bus (instead of admitting the stupid rots like a fish), and he claims he's the only one speaking his mind because of his committee (not because he's retiring and doesn't worry about being primaried), but I find absurd stupidity comes close to fucking lunacy. Then again, I thought GWB and his posse were fucking lunatics, and now I've had to reevaluate their statesmanship.
