I’m told that in the British House of Commons, the two opposing parties are seated at just over two sword-lengths from each other. Apparently discussion time in the house could get rather pointed.
So there goes the idea of “Gentlemanly art of Politics”.
I cling to the old ways: don’t discuss sex, religion, or politics in polite company. Imagine how much worse – maybe – it would be if religion were argued about the way politics is now.
And now, for a list of everything that has been resolved through all the arguing and name calling:
I wonder how politicians survived “in the wild” back in those days before they were owned and trained to “turn tricks” (in both senses of the phrase) by major corporations and other special interest groups.
A Peaceful Protest is both the future of politics and clubbing each other over the head. And arson, looting, assaults, murder, attacking police officers and vehicles, a rape or two… just the usual fox-de-rol of the Left. Let’s Go Brandon.
“I’ll tell you one thing. If the primates that we came from had known that someday politicians would come out of the gene pool, they’d have stayed up in the trees and written evolution off as a bad idea! Hell, I always thought the opposable thumb was… overrated!”—Captain John Sheridan, Babylon 5
It’s always the libtards who start these screeds … then when someone gets up in their grill, they get so offended. Well, we are NOT taking it any more. If you don’t want these kind of posts here … don’t start anything with your contant bashing of 45.
Well, say what you will about the blood-sport of politics, it sure beats the hell out of the alternative of civil war. Although, if some of the Repub states makes use of their nuclear response to overturn elections, then fighting the real civil war, not just the political one, might become a reality. God help us.
Didn’t Trumps Brown Shirts use sticks with American Flags on them to beat Capitol Police Officers who were stopping the insurrection? Why yes, I believe they did!
I wish BC and the rest of the comics would leave political commentary to the editorial cartoons. I want to escape reality when I read the comics – otherwise I’d be reading the news on other websites.
A fascist government was elected, it took over the White House on January 20th 2021. A day that will live in history of when The USA was taken over by communists.

Nothing has changed … today’s politicians are clubbing one another, then blaming the others when they contract COVID.

Good grief. Not again. A SWAMI DOES NOT MEANS A SOOTHSAYER. STOP THIS DARNED CULTURAL MISAPPROPRIATION.

He saw the definition that some have given to politics…" poly" meaning many, “ticks” blood-sucking creatures…

It’s more civilized than what I have seen lately. At least you can see the person you’re arguing with and realize it’s a 10-year-old with an iPad.

Well, it looks like we are off to the political wars early on. Had hoped it would at least wait until fall.
Gonna be a l-o-o-o-o-n-g couple of years.

In many cases, clubbing would be much more polite.
