If you’re willing to let vets be collateral damage, you are saying “It’s ok to fuck those vets.” While it may not be their primary intention, face eating leopards are going to eat faces.

And they should get condemned when they do it.

So either they were fist bumping just after voting down vet bennies or they were fist bumping because they just voted down vet bennies. Either way their assholes, rotten at being people, and they lost the benefit of the doubt from me around 2014.

While I agree we shouldn’t assume it was the veterans losing benefits they were fist bumping over, I do think it’s safe to assume it was because they defeated their arch enemy the Democrats. Cruz has an illustrious and long history of being such a petty asshole that I believe it’s a fairly safe assumption.

Also, Jon Stewart is absolutely destroying Cruz over his attempts to lie and say the bill was changed at the last minute. He’s just brutal. And deservedly so.

Can't really find specifics, but I'm guessing it is related to comments he made earlier when it was being discussed.
In a statement, Romney called the scope and cost of the bill “astronomical and unjustified.” The Congressional Budget Office estimates the legislation would cost $667 billion over the next nine years.
Rand Paul voted against it because he said they can't prove they are sick because of serving in the military. Also, because Rand Paul is a douche.

$667B over nine years is 10% of the DoD budget ($777B this year). That seems like a lot.

FWIW I get Romney's concern. However, that was something to think about before he supported (as a business leader and Presidential candidate) or voted on budgets that spent way, way, way more than that to put them in harm's way in the first place.

A story I read today put the price tag at $230B which, while not exactly bargain-bin stuff, seems more realistic to me.

I think in a vote like this and this important and what its for you have to kinda weigh what not voting for it means even if you try to pretend you are against something else in it. Vote it through and fix what you didn't like about it later if its not that serious a deal compared to what the main bill is for.

An interesting look at how Fox and what its audience want has changed:

https://www.thedailybeast.com/how-loyal ... 2c19ef33b4
Hannity’s inability to evolve with the changing right-wing media landscape—one that has long moved into darker ideological terrain after decades of loyally defending and touting the Republican Party above all else.

“The fundamental thing about Hannity is that he’s not an ideas guy. He’s a cheerleader,”...

... Lawrence similarly suggested that Watters et al better fit the network’s current business model largely revolving around “ginning up outrage cycles” and stoking culture-war controversy.

The next battleground for the Republicans? Might be anti-depressants - Slate
There’s a familiar rhythm to the responses to mass shootings. From those who oppose gun control, among the calls for thoughts and prayers are often allegations that the perpetrator was taking antidepressants—typically selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, like Lexapro and Prozac—with the insinuation that the medication made them do it. We saw it after Uvalde; we saw it after Highland Park. Most prominently, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Fox News host Tucker Carlson, and right-wing social media influencer Jack Posobiec have directly blamed shootings on the increase in prescriptions for SSRIs. They based this on an utterance from the Highland Park shooter that he was a “depressed drug user,” but (as with most of these cases) there is no information on whether he had a prescription for SSRIs or any other psychopharmacological intervention. When a U.K. newspaper recently covered an academic umbrella analysis disputing the role of serotonin imbalances in depression, the comments ran over with anti-psychiatric responses to the story, including pharmaceutical conspiracy theories.

These claims stem from an area of scientific discussion in the early ’00s. In a somewhat infamous early case, a patient taking Prozac (fluoxetine) went on a rampage killing eight people and then himself in 1989; his family blamed the incident on the antidepressant. In the years that followed, SSRIs became a major psychopharmacological treatment, and several public health analyses in the early- to mid-d’00s raised concerns about the prescription of SSRIs, particularly about side-effects including violence and suicidality (especially in patients under 25). As a result, the FDA adding a black-box suicide warning to SSRIs and shifting guidance within the psychiatric community on their prescription.

...

But as with many such conspiracy theories, the politicians trying to blame people taking SSRIs for mass shootings are misunderstanding of the issue. Recent partisan endorsement of conspiracy theories and outright attacks on psychopharmacology (and SSRIs in particular) is roughly analogous to the problem we have seen around coronavirus vaccination. When basic standards of care are seen as a political partisan issue, people who are on the anti-medical side of the partisan divide are significantly less likely to get treatment and less likely to trust their own doctors and health care providers. But it is not just about trust between providers and patients.

Now we need to worry anti-SSRI positions becoming policy.

Adverse events for medical interventions are common. There’s a reason why prescription medications should be used with the supervision of a medical professional who keeps up with the literature on possible side effects. When used consistently with best practices, SSRIs are an effective tool in treating a range of psychiatric conditions, especially in combination with therapy (which provides the requisite oversight to address adverse events). There are reasonable concerns within the medical community about how and when to prescribe SSRIs, especially to patients under 25. But certain members of the GOP want to turn those discussions into fear mongering about the historical recognition of side-effects and turn shifts in labeling into a reason to defund and even actively disrupt the best standard of care available in mental health.

This resurfaced after Aurora and I remember taking to a psychiatrist at work about it back then. There were compelling links but in his opinion, SSRIs were not the cause of the increase in shootings.

I haven read any recent literature but it's certainly comforting to think that there would be an identifiable cause and fairly simplebto implement solution. Unfortunately, don't think that's the case.

Well except the clear link to widely, cheaply available guns designed for military applications but that ship has sailed. I know not easily to implement a solution but it's the constant elephant in the room.

Are we suggesting it's mentally ill people that go out and acquire firearms for the sole purpose of murdering helpless unsuspecting people they have no connection with en masse in a convoluted suicide by cop plan? No. That doesn't sound right.

Does the GOP address the ones shooting up religious sites and gay bars? What do they want to ban in lieu of unmitigated access to firearms in those cases?

All that said, I won't go back on SSRIs and most especially not with wellbutrin. They have turned me off to the idea of treating "anxiety" issues entirely. I'm not sure which was worse. Being on them or the withdraw from saying "No way. No more." While paranoia and crawling out my own skin did enter the picture, violence never was in my thoughts, praise pancake.

Of course not, all their discourse is to distract from the real issue. The problem is they embrace a conspiracy theory, brand it as an idea, repeat it ad nauseum until their idiotic base is chanting it out loud, and then use the media to loudspeaker the 'controversy'. Over and over. And it works.

I’m not sure this fits under the “conspiracy theory” umbrella. My understanding is that there are, in fact, links between SSRIs and suicidal/violent thought in some patients, including those who commit acts of violence to themselves and others. To look at over-prescription of SSRIs as a contributing factor to mass shootings may be dumb in light of all the other, more significant and obvious contributing factors, but it doesn’t qualify as a conspiracy. It’s not tin foil-hat wearing, Pizza Gate, Venezuelan election interference type stuff.

Just pointing this out because I hate to see labels get tossed around and over-applied to the point that they lose all meaning. Words matter. It’s important we say what we mean and mean what we say.
