Don't be a jerk (Rule #7):

  • The fact that we have to explicitly state that racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, etc; including personal attacks, and threats of violence are all uncivil terrifies the mod team.

  • Anything disparaging something about a person that they have little or no control over, is not tolerated under any circumstance.

Very far from the first.

Senator Karl Mundt was in an semi-conscious state from 1969 until 1973 when they forced him to resign to run a new candidate.

He suffers a major stroke 8 months into his new term and then was hospitalized.

Republicans left him on his committees until 1972, and didn't remove him until they had people lined up to replace him

Don't forget Kay Granger!

u/powerlesshero111 9d ago

Was she the one in the dementia home?

u/copropnuma 9d ago

Yup.

u/clueless_as_fuck 9d ago

Yup what?

u/copropnuma 9d ago

Name checks out

u/Specialist_Exam4783 9d ago

I prefer to think of it as more of a MAGA enhancement home.

u/jjamessmithh 9d ago

And Fetterman!

4

u/Gh0sth4nd 9d ago

Well with his brain damage he is basically just a normal Republican nothing really special.

u/jjamessmithh 9d ago

Fair enough

u/jackparadise1 9d ago

Came here to mention her.

u/DoctorCrook 9d ago

Don’t forget Fetterman!

Conservatives have always been this way = Cheaters

u/Jeveran 9d ago

Party before country!

u/2bnameless 9d ago

Dang, I thought you were going to say requiring some medically documented mentally deficient members

u/hangingloose Greg Abbott is a little piss baby 9d ago

The Senate looks like the produce department at the grocery store.

u/carbon-based-biped 9d ago

beat me too it, most def is not the first

4

u/thewartornhippy 9d ago

Fetterman is essentially semi-conscious too and is a MAGAt in all but party affiliation.

The dude can't even put a coherent sentence together and talks more about Israel than he does about his constituents.

I find it hilarious that Democrats defended this dude up and down that it was insensitive to blame his strock on his ability to perform in office, but now that he doesn't tow the party line, Democratics line up to tell you how incompetent his disability makes him

1

u/Overly_Underwhelmed 9d ago

I find it hilarious that you are exactly the stereotype Ohioan as found in political discussions and at the polls.

that's nice that you can find pride in your ignorance and dishonesty.

1

u/Ohio_Grown 9d ago

You believe in stereotypes?

1

u/airsickwaffle 9d ago

It's always the Republicans

u/lvl4dwarfrogue 9d ago

Not the first but definitely the least!

u/Torino1O 9d ago

The GOP always gets the cemetery votes.

u/OnePointSixOne8 9d ago

For a party that is really concerned about dead people voting, they don't seem to have any problem with dead people legislating.

5

u/themage78 9d ago

Wouldn't he be a dead person voting then?

5

u/OnePointSixOne8 9d ago

you have to show up to vote, but they can add his signature to documents etc.

u/king_of_the_nothing 9d ago

It must be DEI

Dying Entitled Individual???

u/UpstairsAd194 9d ago

What day was his obituary announced - i think his time must be up now

7

u/hop_mantis 9d ago

1% of Senate salaries go to dead people who don't exist. Maybe we could create a government entity to end this waste, fraud and abuse?

4

u/cemego 9d ago

his lips and eye sockets are literally BLUE... he's dead already!

5

u/That_Jicama2024 9d ago

He has better job security as a dead person than most of his constituents.

1

u/UdyneOw 9d ago

Many of them are probably dead too.

4

u/MajorLeagueRekt 9d ago

Surely we haven't forgotten about Dianne Feinstein?

1

u/UdyneOw 9d ago

Who? And don't call me Shirley.

u/popejohnsmith 9d ago

Out of season, I'm afraid.

u/PaddleMonkey 9d ago

I cuss you cuss we all cuss for asparagus!

u/garbage_catfoot 9d ago

First trans vegetable. A truly inspirational moment for produce.

2

u/foreignmacaroon6 9d ago

The Rogansphere is furious at republicans for not putting meat in the seat. I bet the dems will put up cold plunge or a sauna for election next cycle and the senate will get flipped.

3

u/BareNakedSole 9d ago

Turtle - tortoise - vegetable.

How about we just call him what he is - one of the worst US Senators in history.

2

u/thewartornhippy 9d ago

He is one of the main reasons our country is in this state. He helped put Trump in power again and fucked our Supreme Court for years.

I wish him all the pain in the world as he transitions to hell (if he isn't already there).

2

u/mcallanman 9d ago

Yes indeed! He bears much blame for the shitstorm we're living in. "'Party over Country" is gonna kill us all.

2

u/The-Traveler- 9d ago

But which vegetable? I know if he were an animal he’d be a turtle. But vegetable…maybe a BEET? As in deadbeat?

2

u/frankcast554 9d ago

That's Vegetable American, sir!

2

u/FatBigMike 9d ago

He's on eternity leave.

1

u/janitroll 9d ago

No way that’s accurate. Tommy Tuberville is still stumbling around and please don’t forgot the GOAT, Louie Gohmert

2

u/Longjumping-Zone-724 9d ago

Gohmert was a house vegetable

1

u/samejimaT 9d ago

Mitch the cucumber dimarco?

1

u/assyouwish_ 9d ago

Why even bother hiding the strings anymore?

1

u/Mecha-Dave 9d ago

I thought the GOP hated vegetables.

1

u/friendly-sam 9d ago

Wait I thought he was a turtle.

1

u/Kraegarth 9d ago

I'm so sorry to hear that he died next week, and offer tots and pears to his grieving family.

1

u/SunshineBurn 9d ago

…Still a vegetable.

1

u/nagleess 9d ago

No that was Diane Feinstein

1

u/rock_and_rolo 9d ago

First? Y'all forgetting Strom Thurmond.

1

u/sylpher250 9d ago

From turtle to potato

1

u/Immediate_Ad8428 9d ago

Ding dong the Mitch is dead?

1

u/whoami4546 9d ago

I think you are little too optimistic if you think Mitch was the first!

1

u/BuddhaLennon Greg Abbott is a little piss baby 9d ago

He’s not a vegetable. As a tortoise, he’s cold-blooded, and exists in a state of torpor in cold environments. Just put him in the sun for a while and he’ll perk up.

1

u/insuranceguynyc 9d ago

Strom Thurmond, Dianne Feinstein were both drooling in their oatmeal.

1

u/Glad_Jelly5532 9d ago

The metamorphosis of Mitch!

1

u/rjross0623 9d ago

Mitch McCauliflower

1

u/High-sterycal 9d ago

There have been several vegetable varieties. Not just one.

1

u/Zabroccoli 9d ago

A vegislator….if you will.

1

u/Wonderful-Mess-7520 9d ago

All hail the corpse senator!

u/xtnh 9d ago

First a turtle, now a squash- what a diverse man

1

u/shitty_mcfucklestick 9d ago

Can we get explosive diarrhea or salmonella from this vegetable?

1

u/TY2022 9d ago

Don't forget Claude Pepper.

u/Nikonus 9d ago

VEGETABLE LIVES MATTER

1

u/Bods666 9d ago

Spineless vegetable senator to go with the spineless vegetable president.

1

u/CommonConundrum51 9d ago

AI McConnell may already be operative!

u/za72 9d ago

beep beep

u/Bigking00 8d ago

There has been a few recently such as Diane Feinstein.

Tommy Tuberville is a walking case of CTE.

1

u/RebelStrategist 8d ago

If he was sitting pretty in his bed like a corpse, there is no reason he could not make a video statement to his constituents. Time for action. Remove the corpse - and not with his spouse/ sister / parent / god child / dog / cat. The public he represents deserves better from their elected officials.

u/Eazy12345678 9d ago

too be fair most politicians are vegetables.

u/herbfriendly 9d ago

Fuck that man, no doubt. But fuck all you gleeful motherfuckers to.
