Paul Gosar is Censured

[sartre play]

Getting so its hard to respect any one holding a political office, So few seem able to do the good paying good benefits job they were hired for.

What does that have to do with the right to free speech?

What does censuring him have to do with the right to free speech? Nothing, that's what. Take your stupid talking point walking.

You'd know if this was a democrat.

Y'THINK? Imagine if AOC had posted a video of her killing Goober Gosar or MTG.
They'd want her GONE.

Like... writing, debating, and voting on bills? Seems like one side of the aisle is quite a bit more active, in that regard.

AOC was quite eloquent in her condemnation of Gosar

She is far more intligent than he is.

 

[playtime]

the nutjob should have been expelled.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Not exactly a high bar in either case.

Gosar
Hey everybody, WATCH THIS

Isn’t it funny how I kill AOC?

I asked what crime he committed. Censure is not a criminal prosecution. It is a slap on the wrist for his unprofessional behavior by the body he belongs to.

While prune face Maxine gets nothing for urging people to hassle Trumpsters.

If you fascist assholes didn't have double standards.....

”Hassle” vs cut his head off?

Sorry G - But that's false equivalency. Kathy Griffin is a comedienne (no, that wasn't funny) She is NOT a member of congress. Those guys should be held to a higher standard.

 

[rightwinger]

They don’t even realize the new normal they have created. Just look at these posts. When this starts happening to dems after next year they will change their tune.

Fair enough

When Dems start joking about killing their fellow congressmen, you can censure them

AOC has too much class to do that

Fair, removal from his committees was appropriate however and I'm certain a major source of butthurt this evening for Goober Gosar.

Gospar is being held to a higher standard. But he is also protected by the exact same Constitution as Griffin.

There is no crime here. He acted like an ass, and he is getting a lot of blowback for it.

I like how she did not make it personal but phrased it as an attack on the body of Congress
We are better than this

 

[bodecea]

Criminally prosecuted for what?

THreats of violence towards a member of Congress and the President of the United States.

AOC has too much class to do that

They may not understand that.

Since IM2's comment was directed at me, I will tell both of you I would just as staunchly defend a Democrat for doing the same stupid thing.

And then the Trumptards would accuse me of being a commie liberal, as they do on a nearly daily basis.

I'm used to it.
