    It’s sad and all he has to go through that, because you know, strokes are bad and all, but why the fuck do we have these ancient people on a platform and in charge of anything. It’s insane.

      Im not sad, are you sad? McConnell is an awful human being who has profited off the suffering of others. He’s not misguided or trying to make the world a better place. He’s human smega. Fuck him.

      Congress, especially the Senate, is turning into a fucking nursing home. McConnel should do the right thing and retire now, because it’s obvious that he is not capable of actually performing his duties and is therefore letting down his constituents. I have this crazy suspicion that he won’t, though.

        The reality is that time in office is used to determine seniority on committees. Both parties are “propping up the ancients” in a grotesque game of chicken.
