OK, Jeff. Come back here. Please explain which definition of hyperbole you are choosing, and please point to the statement which you are referring to.... You don't get to take that pot shot here today... I will be bacl later.

The statements are extreme and absurd. Pretty much all of it.

Wow. And I thought they, for the most part, represented a middle of the road, centralist, boring, conservative, don't rock the boat point of view. Never would I have dreamed that they would be labeled either extreme or absurd.

For the most part just twisted generalizations in a “I don’t eat cheese so I must be anti bovine” sort of way.

You should read them again. Who ever said someone who plans and saves is a fascist? You also don't like the actual borderline fascist. A fascist pardons war criminals and his corrupt cronies, they aren't regular people who save. Pretty sure no one ever said that, unless it was spin by right wing entertainment "news."

Is it just me or does this make absolutely no sense?

because hilary didn’t call us deplorable and irredeemable, obama didn’t call us bitter
clingers who dislike people
who don’t look like them.
Obama’s deputy chief of staff didn’t call republicans fu—ers.
Biden didn’t say that republicans want to put blacks in chains?
where’s the hyperbole there, madam? Be specific?
i’m not saying there aren’t blind haters on the right. but the left no longer wants to talk about ideas or results. just show you how
much they hate conservatives.
all they have, is hate. Trump
made it easy i guess, but it started with Bush. He proved them
wrong on Iraq being fixable, he made them look stupid, and they blew a gasket. After that, he was a racist warmonger, McCain was a senile old racist, Romney a heartless plutocrat who hated women.
