If Quigs or Cicilline said it was subject to change, I missed it, but it's a sensible thing for them to say. My post was because the lower third on Lawrence was still saying 2 during their interview.

say that the American voter is too stupid to understand 2+2=4 so they have to dumb everything down for the morons who elected the fucking moron in the first the place. Face it, the average American knows or is interested in about half of what the rest of the world knows and understands about world politics, their own politics, History, Civics, Geography, etc. We are the ignoramuses of the world. That is what happens when you consider yourself a world power for too long and you get lazy and rest on your laurels.

STAND up. Not worry about politics ! Just look at it in a vacuum. Is it right or is it wrong? BOOM. Trying to second guess the public's reaction or what they can understand or what the Dipshit will say, or what the repukes will do is EXACTLY what we don't want. Just do the right thing. Period.

I am so sick of the many, many people walking on eggshells and worrying what the dumbass American public will think, say, vote, etc. It is the principle of the thing, not politics. It is Civics and our constitution. We are in a "constitutional crisis" for a reason. Fuck the "politics" BS!

This is the biggest crook to ever hold office in our country, we have to make sure this isn't ok and doesn't happen again. Leaving out bribery and extortion is wrong and sets it up to happen again, IMO.
