If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.

"the Koch brothers"
"out of state oil billionaires"
Those are the only two things I've been hearing on political radio ads for the last couple of months. (I'm in Iowa and the ads are against Joni Ernst, a Rep. Senate candidate)

Democrats would call this an "Obama nation".
Republicans would say, "You're right, it is an abomination!"

Same [shucks] different state. (here is WV):
"New York billionaires"
"the Kock brothers"
"War on Coal"
"rubber stamp for Obama"
Glad this will be over tomorrow....at least for a little while.

Good one.
You never hear "staunch liberal".
Great marketing
Who the hell wants to be described as "Staunch"?

Liberals are never "staunch". Their ideologies change like the wind. They have no firm foundation, only having the Feeeelz of the moment to which they respond by clamoring for more money from those who produce it, only to give it to those who they Feeelz deserve it.
Staunch
1.
loyal and committed in attitude.
synonyms: stalwart, loyal, faithful, committed, devoted, dedicated, dependable, reliable, steady, constant, trusty, hard-working, steadfast, redoubtable, unwavering, tireless;
