I am a member of the Axis of Empathy

[Bucky]

Orrin Hatch apparently fears me and my wanton empathetic tendencies.

1. that must be tough

I feel for you.


How much are the membership dues? Are we allowed to empathize with FReeper types?

[Bucky]

9. I'm a humanitarian. No, it ain't easy, but I love Freepos too

Love 'em to death.

2. That's code for commie pinko dirty hippy heap or rotting dung.

Can I join you?

3. Orrin Hatch's level of assholiness is amazing.

Whenever he opens his piehole -- about anything -- you can be sure something toxic is coming out.

Remember he wanted to remotely blow up people's computers if they downloaded songs?

5. Agreed but I thought he sounded pretty mild in that clip.

He basically said, if Obama tells me what I want to hear, I'll have the political cover to vote with his choice. :shrug:

[EFerrari]

4. I can't help thinking that Obama is brilliant in bringing up empathy to the American public.

Because that's exactly what the Republicans don't do. That's exactly the best antidote for their anti-social poison. The whole laundry list of things we want begin with the small gesture of empathizing. lol

6. Republicans look awfully bad arguing against Empathy. They need to keep it up n/t

[YvonneCa]

7. But they are so good at ...

...it...the arguing, i mean. :7

[lunatica]

8. Orrin's code words are 'Abortion Rights' when it should be

'Right to Choose'

He knows all about code words.
