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.

LurkerMom: This made up BS came from Political, you can’t believe anything coming from Political. You just don’t pull stuff like this from the dark web somewhere out there in cyberspace and expect normal people to believe this stupid conversation.

Umm.

Officials in the New York Republican Party on Friday voted to suspend the state Young Republicans chapter following a Politico report that detailed racist and antisemitic messages sent between a group of young Republican leaders across the country.

In a statement following the New York state GOP's decision, party chair Ed Cox said that New York State Young Republicans were "already grossly mismanaged" and that the "vile language of the sort made in the group chat has no place in our party or its subsidiary organizations."


Huh. The Politico reporting was factual and accurate after all, and the "stuff like this" didn't come "from the dark web somewhere out there" but from the racists, antisemites, and misogynists in your party.

Time for another, different rationalization.
