Once upon a time, the concept was to listen or consider both sides and vote for the one you thought best for the job. Now you are being dictated to by the parties. In this case the Alabama GROPE, oops, GOP
But WHY does that ONLY WORK for Republicans??? If you are a Gross Old Pervert, well, that’s understandable, just as long as you vote the party line, but if you are a Democrat, you MUST BE TARRED AND FEATHERED AND RUN OUT OF TOWN ON A RAIL!!
If you believe that Southern Baptists and New York Presbyterians ( Republicans only of course) can be forgiven for their transgressions but “godless” Democrats cannot, … it all makes sense?
“Look at the tyranny of party — at what is called party allegiance, party loyalty — a snare invented by designing men for selfish purposes — and which turns voters into chattles, slaves, rabbits, and all the while their masters, and they themselves are shouting rubbish about liberty, independence, freedom of opinion, freedom of speech, honestly unconscious of the fantastic contradiction; and forgetting or ignoring that their fathers and the churches shouted the same blasphemies a generation earlier when they were closing their doors against the hunted slave, beating his handful of humane defenders with Bible texts and billies, and pocketing the insults and licking the shoes of his Southern master.”
The GOP candidate could shoot fire from his eyes, declare himself a demon and vomit a swarm of locusts and some people would still vote for him because he has an “R” after his name.
Loyal Party politics, those who are bought, stay bought! Trump is the only one who shows no loyalty to anyone.,. ……. If voters, …..all voters voted every election… Maybe there would be a change in the system. Only maybe.
The last few crops of Republicans have gone from staunchly Conservative to Fundamentalists and radicals who have more in common with the Dead Confederacy than the USA.
It is important to take the seriousness of the offense into consideration. Verbal harassment is one thing, policy harassment is another (and worse), unwanted physical contact is worse (but there are different levels of that), and sexual assault is another altogether. Then there is pedophilia – a level beyond all others. Do not treat them all the same.

I’ve noticed that Christians have gotten awfully good at lying these last two years.

No humor here, Rogers. This is political reality. We got Hillary because the DNC was thinking this same way.
