47 Democrats Just Surrendered to GOP Rhetoric And DAESH
Must admit I’m probably over posting. It’s a reaction to so many of my meat world friends that I’m at odds with on this one. This writers words just struck me as so poignant I just had to Page them.
They voted for terror as a political tactic overseas as well. Imagine you are the parents of small children, caught in the crossfire of the Syrian civil war. Maybe you’ve got a cousin, or a nephew, or an uncle running a small Motel 6 somewhere in the Midwest. For months now, he’s been sending you a little money and begging you all to make a run for it. You finally muster up the dough, and the courage, and a strong enough immune system to make the perilous journey. And then, through the static in your cheap radio, you hear about this vote.
The next day, just by coincidence, the local Daesh precinct captain comes strolling by and asks if you and your teenage son have a minute to chat. He mentions the vote in the U.S. House of Representatives, and he says, you see, the infidel is not to be trusted. Even if he lets you in, you will end up in prison in Cuba. You feel the anger rising in your son. You don’t have a good answer for this fellow and he goes on his way. You stay where you are, bombs falling from all directions. Your son looks for his own way out.
Anyway, 47 Democratic politicians voted for terror today. Here’s the House of Representatives telephone directory, for your reading pleasure. If you happen to be a constituent of one of the 47 Democratic representatives who voted for terror today, why not give your representative a call? Shoot, even if you’re not, call one of the 47 anyway. Tell them how proud you are at how sternly they defended whatever they thought they were defending today, because it sure as hell wasn’t the United States of America.
