Happy to see McBride being supported, but where was that support for Al Green?

Sigh, this party sometimes.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 3 months ago

Ahhh yes. When good isn't good enough. Race ya to the bottom again.

I donated to Green after getting adds from reps not willing to fuck shit up.

~~Was he on this committee? I have not seen a list of names.~~

I misread a preposition, from instead of for.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Irrelevant.

What you want him to bust into the committee like the koolaid man?

[-] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago

So Al Green can only expect support from his own party if he's on certain committees?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Sorry, I misread your comment as you were asking where the support FROM Al Green was, not for him.

I think nokturne might have read "from Al Green". I did at first

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

You are correct… I did read from. Whoops.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Ah no biggie, you did come off as someone with a bit different way of thinking.

Thanks for clarifying

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Yes, but that's not the point.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I have already twice admitted to having misread a preposition in the comment, I read from rather than for.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Oh, I wasn't trying to rag on you. I just liked the image you put in my head.
