The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Tuesday: Handy gets it handed to her — again

five-time international lap-hockey champion Lauren Boebert’s gotten herself into hot water again — but this time it’s not for expertly beetlejuicing her boyfriend in public.

nope, this week Handy Oakley’s on the hook for doling out some good old Republican-style racism.

“for him to go and shake his pimp cane at President Trump was absolutely abhorrent.”

that was her oh-so-charming comment regarding Al Green’s ouster from the House for heckling Dear Leader’s speech.

for that crack, she found herself starring in her very own censure resolution, introduced by Pennsylvania Rep. Chrissy Houlahan. in response, Handy did what Republicans do best — she went on some wingnut cable show to whine her idiotic head off.

“…attack me for referencing his cane as a pimp cane. I stand by it … if that gold-plated cane isn’t a pimp cane, I don’t know what is. but maybe hula-who is really the racist here. are only blacks pimps, is that what I’m hearing?”

ah, yes. the well-worn I’m not racist, you’re the racist dodge — and referring to Chrissy Houlahan as “hula-who,” that’s just icing on the cake.

stay classy, you handjob-doling national embarrassment.
