If you read through my posts instead of inferring I stated that I thought it was gross. It's just not noteworthy to me. Most politicians are trash and some are better than others at hiding their shit. This is true historically. We have had some real pieces of shit from every party. Why would anyone be surprised that one of the worst members of congress in recent history was groping in a theater. I already don't like her but this doesn't make me dislike her less nor will it keep her supporters from supporting her. But here we are.

Decorum of elected officials. I don't care if you are wearing tennis shoes, tan pants etc. Are you doing a good job. Fine. Bill Clinton did pretty good while being a serial philanderer.. Are you doing a bad job thats what i will judge. Imo she does a terrible job, but I couldn't care less about what she did one night in a theater, nor do I think it rises to headline news.From here on out, I will ask all my female coworkers (office setting) if they ever “pull a Boebert “ or “feel up a Boebert” in public. Guaranteed if I try that I risk my job. So it’s not incidental, it can cost most of us our employment. She brought this behavior into public spaces and public discussion, yet we can’t publicly discuss it? That’s why it’s noteworthy, it’s rare behavior like this on public display, whether or not from an elected official.0 -
well now you are talking about something different. I'm not going to lose my job if I'm caught on security camera getting frisky with my wife in a theatre. and neither (presumably) will you. asking female coworkers of their sexual behaviour in the workplace? yeah, that's another animal.Lerxst1992 said:static111 said:

she acted like a pig in public, full stop. and there are different standards for public people. 20 years ago this would have been a scandal and probably caused her resignation, even in the GOP. But 20 years ago, she wouldn't even be in congress. so there's that.
the fact that it was a first date is, well, something else. LOLBy The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -

Americans Are Sleepwalking Through a National Emergency
"The United States of America is facing a threat from a sometimes violent cult while a nuclear armed power wages war on the border of our closest allies. And yet, many Americans sleepwalk as if they are living in normal times instead of in an ongoing crisis..."
He's not wrong.He's not. But:He's also late to the party. I've been following Tom Nichols for a few years, and while he's right about some things (Russia, nuclear issues) he's wrong about other things (and I don't just mean music and Indian food). Some of us have been having a "hair on fire" moment since 2016, and Nichols kept saying, calm down, tone down the rhetoric, you have recourse, it's at the ballot box, go vote!Voting is important, I won't argue that point. But MAGA knows that, too, hence all the efforts at voter suppression, disenfranchisement, gerrymandering, fake electors.There is and has been one issue and only one issue since that orange a$$hole rode down his golden elevator: protect democracy, protect the right to vote. Nothing else matters -- nothing. Whatever you might think is important, it is secondary to protecting democratic norms, because without those norms, everything else is gone, too.We were up all night on election night 2020; I was dry heaving into a wastebasket (eating was out of the question). I've been trying to do something for nearly eight freaking years now: I wrote letters, I marched, I vote, I donate to campaigns, I raised $$$ for Ukraine, my social media feed is largely me bludegeoning everyone I know with warnings about third party candidates (any vote not for Biden is a vote for T%&$^*) and the risks of abandoning Ukraine. I've yelled at the ACLU (they insisted that pronouns and a higher minimum wage were their top issues, I told them to focus on voting rights; they argued with me; I quit giving them $$$). What else am I supposed to do?!?Seriously: Before, I lived in a big blue state, where election outcomes were pretty much a foregone conclusion. Now I live in a dark red state where non-Republicans have been gerrymandered into powerlessness; my only option is to vote for the least crazy GOP candidate in the primary.So I'd like Tom Nichols, with all his expertise :ahem: to tell me what, exactly, I should be doing now. I've been at red alert for eight years; what now?All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.0 -
