“I could care less”
Well that means she does care a little bit at least.
I hate that saying it makes no sense at all. It’s couldn’t care less ya dumbasses
Meaning dumbass MTG is a dumbass.
But seriously, we’ve got to get people like her and Bobo the Clown out of office. It’s a tragedy that they ever got in. Gatty Matty is also terrible, as is Cruise Controller, but the absolute idiocy of these Empty G and Bobe is stunning. Then again, I guess the pan taught me how large the portion of absolute morons we have in the population. It makes me sad.
It basically means they care, albeit a little bit but it’s more than not at all. Frankly, I couldn’t care less.
if there’s an inflection with appropriate stress, it’s a fairly sarcastic play on the phrase. “I could care less” says that they can care a little, but refuse to do so.
however, the way it’s used here doesn’t generally reflect that. and, if it isn’t used in response to direct question about level of care, then it is fully toothless as a phrase.
to be clear, you’re right; I’m just playing devil’s advocate about how that wording was intended to be used. when it’s overused without context, it’s a pointless play on words, and generally annoying to see written or spoken.
I heard it as, “I could care less, but I’d have to try.” As in, it’s not worth the effort to care less about the topic.
That doesn’t work, neither does what the other guy said.
But, even in that use case they admit they could care less, and caring less not being worth the effort makes no logical sense as doing nothing (not caring) takes less effort than doing something (caring a little bit).
The nonsensical nature is the point. Like saying someone’s last two brain cells are fighting over 3rd place.
It’ll be a good day when I never have to see or hear about her ever again. GTFO Marge.
The Karen face on that creature should be enough to kick her out.
We should stop calling them Karens and start calling them Marjories
Motion seconded.
Thirded. Give Karens’ their name back, Marjorie’s is much more fitting
Nay. Too many syllables.
She’s a methhead and child groomer who exchanges sexual acts for house votes; not sure why this is taking so long to do anything but I guess these are the family values Americans crave.
I have most certainly been hard up at times, but I cannot imagine a scenario where I would willfully have any sort of naked time with that vile unscrupulous woman.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ she’s called herself a “tantric sex guru” in the past.
If that were true she wouldn’t be such a bitter old cunt.
Oh yeah? Look who she’s fucking…
Wish I could say the same of Boebert
Holy hell. If a Democrat did that, faux news would never shut up about them.
Bro, we cannot forget about Hunter’s business dealings!
Is “business dealings” slang for his penis?
Very legal, and very cool!
It seems censuring doesn’t actually do anything
A vote to censure another member of Congress does not hold any other power beyond a public condemning of that member’s behavior. It does not expel a member from Congress or deny the rights or privileges of that member within Congress.
The Senate website says a censure can have a “powerful psychological effect” on the member and can subsequently threaten the relationships they have with their colleagues. The House website notes that a censure makes the House’s “deep disapproval” of a member publicly known but does not warrant an expulsion.
Yeah, I don’t think it’s going to have much “psychological effect” on her. Should just vote to expel her.
Yeah if she is able to do the morally reprehensible things she’s done in the past already, this will do specifically nothing.
If morals won’t hold her, an authorative side glance will do jack shit.
So it would have as much effect as the house voting to “device socialism” earlier this year
Why is she starting to look more orange with that thumbnail?
"with Greene visiting Jan. 6 inmates in a Washington jail and calling it the “patriot wing,” calling Muslim members of Congress part of the “Jihad Squad,” and appearing at a white nationalist event "
JFC
Good or bad publicity does not matter, the publicity is…
What a waste of time article. Dems don’t control the house, this will go nowhere. This is as stupid as reporting on bills that everyone knows won’t even make it to the floor.
It’s feel-good fluff that won’t make any changes.
