Opinion Stay classy Rashida Tlaib

Was any republican ever caught on camera calling Obama a motherfucker?

I don't know but she did it right off the bat.

But this is not surprising from a politician that came out of Dearborn and Detroit Michigan. The Democrats are really mad about the Trump Travel ban. The Democrat Muslims often talk about it. This was her waging some of that political jihad because of Trump slowing down Islamic immigration.

I mean, question the man's nationality, call his wife a man, disparage his religosity, call him all sorts of traitor and communist, but motherfucker crosses the line?

With all the things Trump has said on camera, I don't think you want to start that kind of comparison. Trump supporters cannot start complaining about lack of class when their dear leader himself is to a significant degree responsible for the current debasement of American politics.

Palestinians in particular. This is a culture that literally elects a terrorist organization as their government. Hamas was voted in. This is pretty mild stuff compared to the culture she represents.

Huh? So why did you mention Sadiq Khan? You do know he's of Pakistani descent and that the Muslim community there is mostly Pakistani right? And that Pakistan is not Palestine?

 

[Metusalemi]

I wish more dems would grow some balls and talk some real shit.

IMO trying to out-Trump Trump is a bad strategy.

I'm only asking to compare apples and apples of media reaction directly if possible

Wasn't in reference to any other vile things slung across the aisle. I wasn't saying motherfucker is better or worse than any of the crap Obama put up with

Edit- @Kafir-kun see my response here for my reasoning to ask if any other republican congressman called Obama a motherfucker directly

They both follow Islam.

Don't be a mealy mouthed coward, just come out and say your problem is with Muslims.

Honest question from position of ignorance.

Do secular and non fundamental muslims still vote for islamists?

 

[Grenz]

So unclassy. She should have called more than half of Americans ‘losers’ in her tweet while posting a pic of her golden toilet. Now that’s class.

That's fair. I'm just pointing out that Obama probably wishes all he got called was a motherfucker. We're way past the moral event horizon with regard to "classy" discourse. And it starts at the head.

Having his sycophants (not you) come in here and try and hold others to a standard that they don't hold their boy to is why I cease to take this seriously.

The problem is what Islam always brings to it's communities and to it's government.

You do not want to live in an Islamic country or Islamic controlled country.

There's a good chance impeachment might start a civil war and the active duty military including veterans and gun owners, overwhelmingly voted for Trump. I don't think this is a smart move from dems. They forget about the other middle of the country who voted for Trump.

Why can't people just wait 2 or 6 years? It's not like Trump is Pres forever. 6 years is a blip in a person's lifetime.

I do wish more leftists would take Michelle's advice on that. There are certain leftists who seem to embrace vulgarity, like in this video for instance, and I think its a bad look. No doubt right wingers like @Ripskater are hypocrites in their outrage at it given how easily they excuse the vulgarity from their own ranks but nonetheless that shouldn't stop us from having our own standards of civility.

I mean, question the man's nationality, call his wife a man, disparage his religosity, call him all sorts of traitor and communist, but motherfucker crosses the line?

Lol exactly.

Honest question from position of ignorance.

That depends on a lot of factors, elections are complicated events that vary a lot between election cycles within a country much less between them. Secular elites in the middle east tend to favor dictatorship though, often because they know their values would not win in a free and fair democratic contest and sometimes for the more materialist reasons that they benefit economically directly or indirectly from the dictatorship.

The problem is I hate Muslims and do not want to live next to them.

Glad you finally admitted it.

 

[Hit-N-Run]

No one has to be classy but the Orange One...since you all act as if Trump was the first person to not show class while in office. First liar in office. First everything bad in office.

Don't try to equate the class level of Trump with any President. Yes, they lie and make bad decisions but Trump tweets like a 12 year old girl and calls people names like a school grader. He's a classless twit that bring such dishonor to the office.

She should have just posted that on twitter and be done with it.

It’s part of a broader theme where the same people who literally lost their fucking minds for 8 years straight over birth certificates, Muslim conspiracies and gay hookers, now express absolute shock and bewilderment because liberals are ‘too obsessed with Trump’.

When we do it, it’s rational, when you do it, it’s a mental disease.

Not-So-Fun-Fact:

A few years ago, I had a client whose brother bought into a fresh new face in politics. This candidate was not like any other candidate and was going to be completely different than what Congress had seen.

The brother worked tirelessly to get this candidate elected. He started as a campiagn volunteer. Then, became a paid staffer on the campaign.

When the candidate won the election to Congress, they hired my client's brother to be a staffer.

During the first meeting on the Congressmember's first full day in office, they sat down and had a meeting. The title of the meeting was "Winning Reelection".

Dude walked out.

Also their idol is the least classy person in Washington by a huge margin
