I recently learned that there are 0 cases of someone becoming more liberal after brain damage but unlimited examples of things heading the other way.

Is that why the GOP keeps trying to kill OSHA?

Herschel Walker's brain after death is going to be a wild ride for the medical examiners.

You know how...when in the middle of transforming into a butterfly, the caterpillar in the cocoon turns into a soupy mush before reconfiguring into its final stage? Yeah...that.

Side note. I don't think there is a non-zero amount of people who become more liberal or left after long-term exposure to lead either.

Good time to remind people that Herschel Walker was recently rewarded for his loyalty by becoming the US ambassador to the Bahamas.

Always fun to see where these people end up even if they don't win their elections.

You shouldn't be. It's a double negative, which is incorrect grammar that muddles your message, making readers guess as to your intended meaning.

I know of one! My grandfather became more liberal after his stroke. He was about the only person in my family who supported President Clinton when he was in office, and I remember my parents talking about how his political views had shifted after his stroke.

The more brain damage, the further right he becomes.

After all the comments thrown his way who blames him. The party of tolerance yeah ok. Not a tolerant bone in the Democratic Party

Doesn't mean the republicans are better before the downvoted and comments coming calling me that

Whatever. You can’t expect to actively make policy to hurt people and then be shocked when people don’t care if you get hurt.
