Remember kids: "democracy" means only voting for Democrats. Because like it's in the name! Duh!

They know what it means! As in "Democratic People's Republic of Slobovia."

Reminds me of a Twitter exchange I saw (reposted at Insty, i don't use Twitter) from a little over a year ago. Some high-profile lefty pundit said something like, "Antifa means anti-fascist, it's right there in the name", to which a conservative replied, "So I guess North Korea is democratic, and a republic".

Reply to Occasional Reader in 7: There is a reason Zinn name his history book "A People's History", and most people totally miss the connotation of that.

Dammit, I typed out a whole post and the server error ate it. Basically I've been sick all week, it's probably omicron despite a negative test, and it's just a bad cold. Carry on.

Reply to doppelganglander in 12: You've got COVID, according to CDC any two symptoms of cold or flu is a "case".

I enjoyed him sparring with Steiger in that. He was good in The Defiant Ones, too.

Reply to doppelganglander in 12: Twice tested. 1st because I sounded nasal to my employer. 2nd because I knew my sore throat was strep and for good measure asked for a covid test. Strep positive. COVID negative twice. For what that is worth, Dopps

Thanks for all your good wishes. Dayquil and Nyquil are keeping the symptoms at bay. My company requires a negative test before I can return to the office and the soonest appointment I could get is next Thursday. Not complaining, mind you - I get to work from home in the meantime.

Reply to lucius septimius in 25: Child abuse. Pure and simple. If those teachers have their own kids they should taken, and I think 10-15 years should do it.
