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.

The most interesting thing last night was the embrace of the democrats extended to a candidate that fantasized about murdering Republicans and having their children die. Only about 9% of Spanberger's voters didn't vote for Jones, which tells you a lot about the state of the dems.

The best quote I saw today was
hotair.com - Democrats i hope your are proud that you elected jay jones

We hear all the time about decency being on the ballot and how "grab 'em by the pussy" was totally disqualifying. Trump is mean. He doesn't conform to the country's norms.

Women, in particular, are all about decency, norms, and kindness I am told, and the vote totals clearly show that.

...
Virginia Democrats elected a governor who encouraged people to embrace their rage and gave the nod to a man who said that he would put two bullets in the head of one of his colleagues and be happy to see his children die in their mother's arms.

Only 46% of Virginia voters thought that was disqualifying, and as far as I can tell, every single one of them was a Republican.

Yup.
