Thanks Getslow. I gained a ton of respect for Ted Cruz once I saw what his supporters were saying to him. Blew my mind.

 

Newt Gingrich caught the same flack for his words on Mandela's passing and responded to them. I thought his response worth posting since I'm normally critical of conservatives on these things.

I haven't verified it but I read a tweet that said former Sen Rick Santorum compared Mr Mandel's fight against apartheid with the R's fight agaisnt Obamacare.

 

Please tell me there was a whole lot of context missing.

The stupidity of politicians!

I keep waiting for somebody to call me out for eulogizing Paul Walker and not Mandela. :lol:

We just think you're, well, "odd". :up: :bunny:

I think some of that carries over to now when you find places where people can speak freely without the fear of social taboo or controversy, like comment sections on the internet.

LOL, internet comment sections, at times I wish there were no comment sections on the internet, a law against it, lol. They are nothing but a cesspool of stupid, uneducated trash!

That might be the first time I've ever thought "kudos" to Newt Gingrich.
