Former Republican. Liberal Internationalist. Pick your battles.

Is the Hamburglar an insurrectionary anarchist? One who martyrs himself through the propaganda of the deed?

Unfortunately I only learned of Rhodesia last week, otherwise Governor Williams would have fought with the Rhodesian military after 'Nam... Unfortunate.

I knew that it existed, but had no idea about its history. It was a really... interesting place, not the best place in the world, but still many times better than Zimbabwe.

I have been reading about its military, and the sheer incompetence of the nationalist guerillas.

De Nieto is going to veto that idea, the Senate Dems are completely unreliable. He would much rather trust one of his House Dems(non-Johnson). Vilseck(DNC Chair) will also probably do that.

Yea no one in the senate, every single on is on the party shitlist, though Medina didn’t vote for the BBA so... honestly harrison would push for someone who was a good speaker and up for an election to higher office

Smith has made some controversial comments she would not be in the running

Phonz is the best speaker and is the most high profile Progressive in Washington. Hopefully Walton will grant him permission to make the formal response.

Medina voted for a Republican president, the last thing she needs is to be further pushed into the parties shit list.
