What does that have to do with how she treats somebody? If you want people to respect you, you show respect. In no way, shape or form have the Democrats shown any respect to Pete.
I wasn't saying to respect her. I was just pointing out that attacking her on lack of self-control seemed unwarranted given her military aviation background.
Some of you are no different than Democrat State Media: "Trump said Putin was smart...so Trump supports Putin!!!"
I come to this page to learn things, including from people with whom I (initially) disagree. Others are here just to feel better about what they already think. That includes thinking that Democrats can't have any redeeming qualities or skills as humans.

They still have to hold the vote in a few days.
But the votes have been whipped. He’s as good as in.
I’m sure they will try some 11th hour hysterics. But they won’t work.

That does not earn her the right to shite on Hegseth for differences in political ideology. It's a fvcking hit job.
Screw her and the rest of them. Those mother fvckers all sitting up there and bitching about personnel management when they manage a team of half a dozen is laughable.
Fvck em all.

You can have self-control in one situation and not in another. I'm sure she showed great self-control in, and was a hero for, her actions on the battlefield but that doesn't mean she did here.

Absolutely! However, she isn't demonstrating that control in this hearing. Can you admit that?
Thanks. I didn't see it as losing control to me. It seemed more like controlled honest anger and hatred to me...but that's just my opinion.
I agree that the Dims engaged in obnoxious twisting. Cheers

Barack Obama is an excellent orator. Tammy Duckworth was qualified to fly Army helicopters in combat.

What did Pete do to her, for her to have that kind of disdain for him? Why would she be angry at him? He hasn't done anything but be a patriotic serving member of the Armed Services just like she has. And better yet served Veterans as well. Oh, it's because he's a white male Christian Republican.

Point well taken. Cheers

That's certainly possible. Lot of that going around.

So was Hitler. I wouldn't call that a redeeming quality or skill.

P
Doesn't make her unique in any way.

Hope most people caught that. I certainly did.
For those of us who didn't catch it?

Is there an underlying message?

This should be the starting assumption with all democrats (or any politician). It’s up to them to prove themselves different on an individual basis. I’m honestly trying to think of one democrat that I’d throw water on if they were burning, and coming up empty. That’s also true for the majority of republicans.

This wasn't lack of self control today. It was theater. Planned, calculated theater. All her rage was directed at the cameras in hopes of PR points. Her conduct was completely intentional.

Of course, not. It was just an observation of the temperament of military aviators.
Doesn't mean they can't be Marxists or otherwise horrible people or politicians.
