My Facebook rant re Liz Cheney:
A competitor who cannot acknowledge defeat but instead perpetrates the shameful Big Lie that victory was stolen from him is no competitor at all. Such behavior is the epitome of poor sportsmanship and dishonor. Followers of such a shameless competitor elicit even less respect. I'm no fan of Liz Cheney's political views, but I admire her courage, integrity, and basic common decency in standing up for what is right and obvious and necessary from adult competitors who are grounded in reality. I will not forget today's purge by minority leader and chief cowardly bootlicker Kevin McCarthy and his Grand Old Party of contemptible Machiavellian sycophants. Rep. Elise Stefanik is an apt and fitting replacement. While the GOP jumped the orange shark some time ago, today represents a new low that actually renders Republican politics, policies, positions and party affiliations irrelevant. This is what tyrants and deranged sociopaths are able to achieve, a complete unraveling of the rules of order and engagement. In calculating his best chances at holding onto and perhaps increasing power, Kevin McCarthy has cast his fate with the greatest political poor sport in American history. He has forgone truth, rules and outcomes. May history give Kevin McCarthy and his fealty to such a pathological poor sport the shame and dishonor he and his sorry cabal of Trump loyalists deserve. Truly astonishing, remarkable, and profoundly embarrassing what the so-called Grand Old Party has come to.
