    New Manchin book. Underlined part implies his membership to ten club.


    ” I don’t say this lightly, but under the leadership of President Obama and Majority Leader Harry Reid, and later President Biden and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Democrats have systematically tried to weaken the very guardrails that have protected our democracy for generations — all in the name of advancing their agenda.

    Manchin was a perennial thorn in the side of Democratic leaders throughout his 14 years in the Senate. He stifled the party’s agenda on multiple fronts, especially during the Biden administration when Democrats had a 50-50 Senate majority.

    The former pol has some choice words for Biden, including that the former president had “a very bad temper.” Manchin recalled that he once called Biden “reckless” to his face over the American Rescue Plan negotiations, telling Biden that he was “sending a fucking check to everyone.”

    But Manchin also expressed some regret over key issues, including his initial opposition to Obamacare when he was serving as governor of West Virginia.

    Manchin slams “woke” Dems. Manchin spends a considerable amount of time criticizing the Democratic Party for its ideological shift during the last 10 to 15 years.

      The party was “once a big tent that welcomed diverse perspectives” but “has increasingly shifted toward ideological purity tests,” he writes.

    “When the party pushes hard on woke ideology, DEI mandates, and other social agendas, it creates unnecessary divisions, alienates everyday citizens, and moves us further away from the commonsense middle ground where most Americans actually live their lives,” Manchin said.

    Fuck Joe Manchurian and his ass backwards coal economy. Go back to the holler, you bum.

    Example 1 from the gun topic.
    Waaaaaah, poor Joe Manchurian. Was a member of a party where a majority thought coal was ass backwards and wanted to progress toward cleaner energy technology and rejected his position. Waaaaaaaah, nobody will pay for my yacht on the Potomac if I don’t get coal to be king again. Waaaaaaaah, the dems won’t talk to me because I’m holding up the whole party’s agenda because, snivel, snivel, coal. Waaaaaaah, the dems aren’t a big tent party and won’t listen to me. Waaaaaaaaaah.

    Fuck him, he represents everything that is wrong with politics and is part of the old guard problem. Hey, CCOOTWH was going to bring coal back and make it king again, remember? Maybe there’s a job for him in the EPA? Fucking bum.
    agreed. if he was not in agreement with the majority of dems he should have left the party. not stay in and sandbag the whole agenda. fuck him forever. sinema too.
    Your either 100% with us or 100% against us....am I right???? 

    The only thing around here consistent is the hypocrisy.
    I was just coming here to say this. I don't agree with towing the party line at all. That's the worst part of republicans right now. Be your own person, represent your constituents, and respect the laws and the constitution. 
    and sandbag your party and the president's agenda while you are at it. gotcha.

    without manchin and sinema blowing up the dem agenda we would not be in this situation right now. call me a hypocrite. i don't fucking care. but you can draw a line from manchin and sinema's intransigence to today.

    The only thing consistent around here is the lack of understanding. Consensus, it’s a thing.

    Go to your next management meeting and demand to go back to rotary phones and tri-copy forms and paper in file cabinets. Then stamp your feet, pout and try to sabotage any initiative leadership is promoting. See how long you last. Then, while waiting for your unemployment benefits to kick in, write a book complaining about how your company isn’t a big tent company willing to listen to alternative ideas.

    And I thought it was, “if you’re not with us, you’re with the terrorists?”
    Also consistent is your bad analogies.
    He doesn't work for and was not "hired" by the Democratic party...it was the people of WV.  I'm sure if you take a second to rethink it you will see the difference.

    Polling in west Virginny and down in the holler consistently showed majority support for clean energy over coal. He was hired by and worked for coal mine owners and supported them over safe working conditions for his constituents. So yea, fuck him.

    Say what you want, republicans fall in line and accomplish their agenda. It’s great that people speak up for their constituents and are their own person, but if you want to know why we can’t have good things, it’s because of the Sienemas and Manchins who truly care more about standing out by standing apart. 

    So good luck accomplishing big D things and enjoy little to no marginal change with more like them.

    West Virginia is ALL about coal.  They literally don't have any other industry.  They are all going to be out of jobs down there once the coal mines close.

    Manchin slams “woke” Dems. Manchin spends a considerable amount of time criticizing the Democratic Party for its ideological shift during the last 10 to 15 years.

      The party was “once a big tent that welcomed diverse perspectives” but “has increasingly shifted toward ideological purity tests,” he writes.

    “When the party pushes hard on woke ideology, DEI mandates, and other social agendas, it creates unnecessary divisions, alienates everyday citizens, and moves us further away from the commonsense middle ground where most Americans actually live their lives,” Manchin said.

    Fuck Joe Manchurian and his ass backwards coal economy. Go back to the holler, you bum.

    Example 1 from the gun topic.
    Waaaaaah, poor Joe Manchurian. Was a member of a party where a majority thought coal was ass backwards and wanted to progress toward cleaner energy technology and rejected his position. Waaaaaaaah, nobody will pay for my yacht on the Potomac if I don’t get coal to be king again. Waaaaaaaah, the dems won’t talk to me because I’m holding up the whole party’s agenda because, snivel, snivel, coal. Waaaaaaah, the dems aren’t a big tent party and won’t listen to me. Waaaaaaaaaah.

    Fuck him, he represents everything that is wrong with politics and is part of the old guard problem. Hey, CCOOTWH was going to bring coal back and make it king again, remember? Maybe there’s a job for him in the EPA? Fucking bum.
    agreed. if he was not in agreement with the majority of dems he should have left the party. not stay in and sandbag the whole agenda. fuck him forever. sinema too.
    You're either 100% with us or 100% against us....am I right???? 

    The only thing around here consistent is the hypocrisy.

    EDITED to use the correct You're....I have no idea why I do that so often. 

    Bulwark had him on yesterday. Better understand his positioning.

    New Manchin book. Underlined part implies his membership to ten club.


    ” I don’t say this lightly, but under the leadership of President Obama and Majority Leader Harry Reid, and later President Biden and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Democrats have systematically tried to weaken the very guardrails that have protected our democracy for generations — all in the name of advancing their agenda.

    Manchin was a perennial thorn in the side of Democratic leaders throughout his 14 years in the Senate. He stifled the party’s agenda on multiple fronts, especially during the Biden administration when Democrats had a 50-50 Senate majority.

    The former pol has some choice words for Biden, including that the former president had “a very bad temper.” Manchin recalled that he once called Biden “reckless” to his face over the American Rescue Plan negotiations, telling Biden that he was “sending a fucking check to everyone.”

    I was just coming here to say this. I don't agree with towing the party line at all. That's the worst part of republicans right now. Be your own person, represent your constituents, and respect the laws and the constitution. 
    and sandbag your party and the president's agenda while you are at it. gotcha.
    I don't know what you mean by your use of "sandbag" here. 
    delay, slow down, torpedo, there are tons of synonyms for it.
    ok, but do you want democrats to blindly kiss the ring of their leader just because trump found a way for R's to do it? I thought we all (many) agreed years ago that was bad for politics. 
    i wanted the democrats to pass their agenda because it was popular and so fucking trump would not win a second term. and here we are.

    i am convinced those two were paid off by special interests specifically to derail it. why else are neither of them senators right now? take the money and run.
