Takes a fair bit to get this 51 year-old man to cry at the drop of a hat.

[Roland99]

But they were streaming down my face this afternoon as I listened to the cries of little girls wanting their “papa” or to call their aunt whose number she’d memorized.

Gut wrenching doesn’t cover it.





Took me a few minutes to compose myself and then I dialed up Sen Rubio’s office and blistered him

[Trek4Truth]

1. Now that is a mighty fine man. nt

[Roland99]

4. Four daughters and a son.

Anyone doing any harm (physical or verbal or emotional) to a child is about the worst possible action anyone could ever take

They are innocent. Completely vulnerable.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. You'd have to have a heart of stone not to be reduced to tears.

The GOPers don't seem to be bothered in the least, though. I hope they fry in hell.

[snacker]

3. It's because you have a heart.

Be proud of that.

[lpbk2713]

5. I'm with you there R.

I'd like to see the frickin asshole who thought no contact was a damn fine idea.

It just reinforces the image of these places as a hell hole where monsters work.

[nolabear]

6. You and me both, brother.

I’m emotional but I’m great in a crisis. I have a level head. This has had me in tears all day. My only hope is that thousands upon thousands of us are blistering their asses.

7. I told Cotton's office if he didn't cosponsor S3036, I never wanted to hear him say 'God' again.

[TomSlick]

21. I referred Cotton to Matthew 25:41-46

and suggested he was at risk of eternal damnation.

[Funtatlaguy]

8. We Dems/Progressives have something called

Empathy.
Most conservatives do not.

[RazBerryBeret]

9. Oh Man... totally with you...

just heard that audio recording and didn't make it thru the whole thing.

How can they be such hard-hearted bastards?
I hope this news goes far and wide. and yes, like someone else said... They had better not refer to God or Christianity or Morals again. ever.

[Jane Austin]

10. My 53-year-old son

was crying at work today after he listened to the Pro-publica recording.

I don't think I've seen him cry since he was ten years old.

[Ohiogal]

11. I don't know who could listen to it without crying.....I sure did

Evil lizard GOPers I hope they burn in hell

[Leith]

12. A Song in Your Honor

It's a few months out of date, but the topic is similar. I hope you enjoy it.

[Roland99]

15. I've traveled to Europe quite a bit for biz...

For the most part, they are much less uptight and narrow minded than many Americans.

Decorum and class. Seems sooo long since we had that in the White House. 18mos feels like 18 years

[Beacool]

18. That was great!!!

Thanks....

[Sophia4]

13. How cruel can the Trump administration get?

[sunonmars]

14. Oh I dont think we've seen the bottom of that sewerpit yet.

We may have to up pitchforks and go drag his ass out of there ourselves.

[Cha]

16. I'm with you, Roland.. This is what it's going to take..

all of us caring about this so much. Mahalo for calling Rubio..

And, Hillary's tweet on trump's Tearing Families Apart..

Link to tweet

And, Gov Cuomo..

[Beacool]

17. Trump, the sycophants around him and his supporters, are evil.

This POS has done some truly terrible things in his life, but this one is the worst. It's inhumane, reprehensible and beneath us as a people. We are better than that, we are not in Nazi Germany or in 1940s US where Japanese/Americans were sent to internment camps, at least those families were allowed to remain together.

I despise the man. I hope that something happens that will remove him from office. There's never been a bigger lowlife in the WH.

[rurallib]

19. Just heard it on Rachel

THOSE BASTARDS ARE FUCKING MONSTERS!!!!!!!

it is tearing my heart out.

[DeminPennswoods]

20. It made me glad

I don't believe in violence because I really wanted to punch someone in the face after listening.

[Roland99]

22. Wasn't sure where that was headed at first (subject line)

But totally agree with ya

[Pacifist Patriot]

23. I vented to Rubio's office yesterday.

For all the good it will do.
