Language Liberalism Freethought Birds

Verbing Weirds Language only if you're expecting it to work in a simple way. This is a special case of the more general truth that Language Weirds.

Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time.

The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church.

If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.

The "Resistance"

Bolling notes* "the author claims to be part of the "Resistance." The term seems a bit grandiose for someone who is enabling a deranged narcissist under the thumb of a foreign enemy, who is scapegoating and destroying the lives of the most vulnerable in our society, just so that the author's goals of gutting environmental regulations and ballooning the deficit to give tax breaks to the wealthy aren't jeopardized."

Well, Nixon's downfall came after enough Republicans considering impeachment charges turned against him (very conservative Maryland Representative Larry Hogan Sr. was among the first).

And it took some Republicans turning against Senator Joe McCarthy to bring him down, too.
