      What are the chances that Abbott is also gay?

      I’d give it 80%

    I know Abbott is a whiny little piss baby, but holy crap does he look like a whiny little piss baby in that headline image.

      I always wonder, do news organizations have a dedicated job for someone to go though videos frame by frame so they can grab awkward looking images to use for headlines?

          Srs, I’ve been saying for awhile now: they’ve gone off the deep end with the photo selections lately.

          I mean, just look: that is a whiny piss baby, is it not?

      As long as their constituents vote for them.

      Unless you want to throw democracy completely out the window… and that’s not going to be a win for us, dawg.

      When another party comes along that’s made up entirely of different people, I think.

    To be fair his projection quota is way down and he is risking losing his GOP platinum membership card. The the hypo isn’t going to crisy itself.
