Guest on insHannity calls idiot’s lies ‘idiotic’

Caroline Heldman: "End of life counselling does not constitute death panels."

Hannity: "It does to me"

Caroline Heldman: "That is an idiotic reading of that… "

Hannity: "I'm an idiot?"

Caroline Heldman: “You are to me!”

Well, she should have. He IS an idiot.

GOP being defined by crackpots

Being?

Republicans are worried that their party is being defined by their legions of loony, ignorant trolls. But enough about DC lawmakers.

Joe Wilson’s outburst Wednesday night earned more than a personal rebuke from the president and a dagger-eyed gasp from the speaker of the House; it drew winces from Republicans worried that their party is becoming known less for the power of its ideals [sic] and more for the pettiness of its vitriol.

Becoming?

Why the outcry over Wilson? Glenn Thrush at Politico:

”I think it’s because congressional Republicans have used the health care debate to vent a deeper, uglier contempt for Obama that verges on the personal.

“They’ve done little to discourage the party’s fringes from questioning Obama’s legitimacy to serve, through the birther movement; fitness to govern, through the death panel canard — and even the territorial integrity of the U.S. under a Democratic president, through Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s flirtation with secession.

“Anger may stoke the base at town halls but it just looks ugly on the national stage.”

“The image of a bunch of white guys booing an African-American president is about as bad as it gets,” said one ‘veteran GOP official.’

Joe Wilson has "embarrassed the nation"

Though President Obama has formally accepted the apology of Joe Wilson, the fallout from the outburst continues to ripple across the nation, even raising doubts about the Republican congressman's political future… In addition to the flak Wilson's received from his colleagues, the American people are making their disdain known as well.

Heh: since Wilson shrieked like a spoiled little snotnose brat during the President’s speech Wednesday night, Dem challenger Rob Miller has raked in over $700,000.

Amid the regret and confessions of guilt, USA Toady reports on the disapproval coming from both sides of the political aisle:

"I cringed," Rep. David Dreier, the top-ranking Republican on the House Rules Committee, said about his reaction to the outburst. "I think it's just unfortunate.."

"I've been here a long time," said House Rules Committee Chairwoman Louise Slaughter, D-NY, a 23-year veteran, "I've never heard anyone accost a president like that."

Even Sen. John McCain, Obama's recent opponent, chimed in on CNN to call it "totally disrespectful" and was one of several senior Republicans to urge Wilson to apologize.

‘An appalling outburst’

There ARE consequences for behaving so boorishly for once. Wilson may be getting wet, sloppy virtual bjs from Rush Limbaugh and the usual group of idiots, but most everyone else thinks he’s an asshole.

The civility of American political debate has been in decline for some time, but Republican Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina truly stuck a new low Wednesday night…

At least three members of Wilson's advisory committee said they resigned Thursday.

"I didn't personally want to be associated with that sort of inappropriateness toward the president of the United States of America," said J.T. McLawhorn, executive director of the Columbia Urban League, who's served on the group since Wilson formed it a decade ago.

"It's just a sad day for us in South Carolina," McLawhorn said.

See what happens when you grow a spine, Dems?

Bucks roll in after Presidential asskicking:

The Democratic National Committee says it has raised more than $1.1 million since President Obama's speech Wednesday night, according to Communications Director Brad Woodhouse.

In addition to the dollar figure, Woodhouse said 381,000 people had signed a letter in support of health reform to members of Congress.

Woodhouse said the money figure and letter were evidence of "momentum for health reform."

"We expect both numbers to continue to grow," Woodhouse said while ordering a bouquet for bratty jerkoff Rep Wilson.

Double-digit post-speech jump for Prez Obama:

Two out of three Americans who watched President Obama's health care reform speech last night favor his health care plans — a 14-point gain among speech-watchers, according to a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation national poll.

Tawdry sex comments cost ’family values’ lawmaker his job

Married California rethug Mike ‘Spanky McJizzwad’ Duvall, who bragged on a live mike about banging not one but two mistresses, has resigned in disgrace.

"I am deeply saddened that my inappropriate comments have become a major distraction for my colleagues in the Assembly..."

Your comments?? You messily boned two different women! Then you boasted about it in disgusting, graphic detail! What about your wife? Your kids? Your stance on the sanctity of marriage?? You asshole.

Has Fux News labeled him as “D-CA” yet?

Rethugs pwn themselves during healthcare speech

The fetus-like Paul Begala: 'thanks, pukes!' --

”As good as Obama was, the Republicans may have helped him more than he helped himself. Just as Bill Clinton was blessed by cartoon-character enemies like Ken Starr and Henry Hyde, the face of GOP opposition to Obamacare tonight was some Congressclown named Joe Wilson from South Carolina. Between Mr. Wilson calling our President a liar and the rest of the GOP looking like a cast picture of "Grumpy Old Men," the Republicans were a portait of bitter anger that would be unrecognizable to the sunny and optimistic Ronald Reagan. Mr. Wilson has reportedly called White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel to apologize. Good thing. But Mr. Wilson's rudeness will taint his party for some time.”

Let’s hope so.

Teabagging idiot bitchslapped

President Obama gets Democrats and Republicans to agree: rethug Rep. Joe Wilson is a graceless asshole.

“An extraordinary breach of decorum.”

Joe Wilson, Republican of South Carolina, interrupted President Obama with a shout of “You lie,” stunning members of both parties… Critical body language and murmurs of disapproval are typical at presidential addresses and part of the political theater. But members of both parties were trying to recollect such a pointed attack from an individual lawmaker at a presidential address.

Wilson's behavior caused a political hangover for him and possibly for the Republican critics Obama had cast as shrill and more interested in killing any health care overhaul than finding a way to compromise.

Duh. Especially since the President was not lying.

Later, Wilson was contrite. He tried to call Obama to apologize personally, but ended up talking with White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel instead, who ripped him a new asshole.

Well, he should have.

Two words, delivered with index finger punctuating the air and directed at the president of the United States, made a little-known South Carolina congressman one of the most reviled men on the Internet.

As soon as Rep. Joe Wilson was identified as the person whose angry and audible outburst disrupted President Obama's health care speech to Congress, condemnation was swift -- and brutal.

Heh. Fun fact: Rob Miller, the Dem who is running against Wilson, has raised over $25,000 $36,000 $40,000 $50,000 $95,000 400 fucking grand since last night.

The no-sponsor zone

At least 62 companies have quit advertising on Glenn Beck’s Fox “News” conspiracy show upon news that the tinfoiled bigot allegedly raped and murdered a girl in 1990... ummm, called Prez Obama a racist.

MUST SEE SITE OF THE DAY!

JOE WILSON SHOOK YOUR HAND RIGHT AFTER HE FONDLED HIS NUTS.

Click thru a few of these at the brand spanking new website:

http://joewilsonisyourpreexistingcondition.com/

and when you feel a microscopic bit better about the fact that you actually have to live on the same Earth and breath the same air as this horrendous neanderthal dipshit looser excuse for a human being, go on over HERE and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

What's wrong with South Carolina anyway? Is it in the water down there? Too many ash pits poisoning the place? Government experiments involving new drugs? Inbreeding on a massive scale? WHAT? I feel sorry for the decent Americans stuck there in the midst of a majority of asshat turd for brain backwater barefoot ignorant trash talkers who put their own ilk in the form of Wilson and Sanford in public office. Sad, that!

LOVED what Clyburn had to say on the matter, incidently:

"I thought he [the governor] had embarrassed us as much as we could be embarrassed. But to have a congressman use the floor of the House of Representatives in a joint session to insult the president the way Joe Wilson did is as embarrassing as anything anyone could think of," Clyburn said. "Our state can do without this."

CHEERS!

Here's a happy little piece of work that totally made MY morning.

Some good news in the barrage of daily very bad things we encounter in our attempts to be and remain educated and informed citizens is a rare delight.

This cheered me right up. It's the business I'd love to go into when I grow up.

Schoolkids react to the President’s speech

Sarah Loftus, 17:

Education is a matter that affects every single person in this country regardless of age, skin color, wealth, or political views, so why should this message be heard less clearly by people with opposing political views from Obama? It shouldn't. To say that his speech forced socialist ideas into students' minds is ludicrous. His speech addressed an important matter that all students across the country regardless of upbringing should have listened to and taken seriously.

Rachel Lubitz, 17:

What I would most like to applaud President Obama on is taking the time to look at this new generation from ages 5 to 18 and letting us know that he cares. Obama was also able to make the right wing news media whine and moan on for weeks and weeks about a speech about staying in school and succeeding. He made them look like overreacting schoolgirls jealous of the cheerleader with the quarterback boyfriend, and anyone who can do that has a friend in me.

Justin Jones, age 16:

Obama's speech was just dripping with socialist values, especially when he told kids "I hope you'll all wash your hands a lot, and stay home from school when you don't feel well, so we can keep people from getting the flu this fall and winter.."

Oh, and the part about students setting goals for their education and asking for help when they worry they won't succeed? He is stealing the words right out of Karl Marx's mouth.

The main message — don't give up. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

In these hard times, there is no better advice that the president could give to children. Unless, of course, he tells them they better share all the profits they get from that lemonade.

Liz Nordlinger, 18:

[T]he country should be proud that we have a competent President who can talk to students without making mistakes and sounding like an idiot.

Awesome. More here.

Protest brews over Cheney center

Cheney head, appendages also panned.

A decision by the University of Wyoming to name a new center for international studies for powermad, torturing cyborg Dick Cheney is drawing criticism from people who say Cheney's support for the Iraq war and harsh interrogation techniques should disqualify him from the distinction.

The gun-happy monster and his harpy wife are expected to be at Thursday's dedication of the new Cheney International Center on the Laramie campus ripping the heads off puppies and drinking the blood of innocents. Protesters plan to be there, too.

"Mr. Cheney is not the best example of demonstrating how nations should get along with each other," said Nancy Sindelar, with the group Veterans For Peace.

Fuck yeah! It’s almost as bad as appointing Lindsey Graham as Cub Scout Czar.

Rethug in bed with lobbyist

No, actually in bed. Married, 54-year old conservatard Michael D. Duvall not only kisses and tells, he does so in graphic, disgusting detail:

"She wears little eye-patch underwear," said the Republican CA Assemblyman, who is married with two children. "So, the other day she came here with her underwear, Thursday. And so, we had made love Wednesday--a lot! And so she'll, she's all, 'I am going up and down the stairs, and you're dripping out of me!' So messy!"

“So, I am getting into spanking her. Yeah, I like it. I like spanking her. She goes, 'I know you like spanking me.' I said, 'Yeah! Because you're such a bad girl!'"

But Duvall wasn't content to just share one adulterous tale at the July 8 committee hearing. He referenced a second, simultaneous affair with another woman. He seemed amused that he was cheating on both his wife and a mistress.

Yuck. Bonus: not only does Duvall serve on the committee to oversee member ethics, but earlier this year he received top kudos from the Capitol Resource Institute, a “fierce guardian of traditional family values.”

“Inside The Pages… uhhh, Mind of Mark Foley"

The disgraced repuglican who made headlines sending sexually explicit emails to underage congressional pages is getting his very own radio talk show.

Foley is set to debut his radio show entitled "Inside the Mind of Mark Foley" on Sept. 22 on West Palm Beach radio station WSVU 960am. In between the gay gay gay musical stylings of Barry Manilow and Barbara Streisand, Foley, who resigned way back in September of 2006, will discuss "the inner workings of DC and how things are being decided and what the process is."

Processes like what lotion to use, which brands of towels are best, and asking callers if they got handjobs over the weekend or if they spanked it themselves. On their back. Into a towel. Or with their cute butts bouncing in the air.

Congresswoman completely certifiable, say experts

Ohio Rethug Rep. Jean Schmidt is caught telling a birther "I agree with you."


This is an elected representative. Why isn't she in a loony-bin somewhere?

School that banned Obama speech will bus kids to go see Bush

A Texass school which refused to air President Obama's classroom address is planning to bus students to see incoherent moron Drinky McDumbass.

Denied the chance to view a peptalk from the historic President of the United States, fifth graders will be taking time off from school to listen to gibbering drooler Tokie McCokespoon, who will appear with his wife Pickles Stepford and that manly example of all that is good in America: greasy, arrogant asshole and criminal-coddler Jerry Jones.

Bush will be speaking alongside several Dallas Cowboys players and prominent Texas business leaders.

At least one local church is up in arms.

"I do not understand the duplicity in this situation," Dwight McKissic Sr., the senior pastor of Arlington's Cornerstone Baptist Church said in a news release quoted by NBC. "I believe the students and the public deserve and need to have these differences explained."

The Arlington school district, like many in North Texas, decided not to broadcast the president's speech live after some parents expressed concern about its content.

Yeah. Instead, maybe Bunnypants can joke about looking for WMDs under Mr Jones’ ego.

Faux News: socialist commie Negro Hitler turning country into Russia

2001/2: Bush needs to appoint more czars!
2009: Obama’s appointed too many czars!

To martial-like drums of doom, the Fux Nooze graphic blared "Do Presidential 'Czars' Pose Threat to Constitution?" Funny, they never asked that when former Dictator-tot Smirky McStupid was in office. When the ‘czar’ system ‘actually flourished.’

ONLY IN AMERIKKKA

How in all that's holy or human is it that other countries track down, try and imprison and sometimes execute their war criminals, but over there in the good ol' U S of A, we honor the murderous fucks, name buildings after them, feature them on the tele and in parades, and act all proud????!!! What the hell is wrong with this picture???

".....University of Wyoming to name a new center for international students for former Vice President Dick Cheney..." and goes onto say there will also be in attendance a slew of protesters, there was a petition protesting this that garnered 150 signatures.

150??!! I personally know more people than that who would stand in line to sign that, so why didn't it get posted online or something??

This shit of honoring dirtbag global mass murderers is just getting down right embarrassing to those of us who hail from these United States and actually have decent upbringings, a conscience, and a healthy respect for life in general, living things and especially other humans.
Anything called the Cheney International Center should have a wall like the Viet Nam Memorial listing the names of all those who died during torture (ordered and engineered by Darth Fucker his own damned self), a room which is an entire replica of one of his torture chambers and a complete list of every time he ever lied and/or got facts wrong during his horrific tenure as vice president and Monkeyboy's chief handler for 8 God forsaken years!!!

"So it goes with Dick Cheney. No apologies. No accountability. Just a whole lot of wrong. And a whole lot of funerals." And some asshole decides to name a building at a university after him????!!!!

Why, again, isn't Chainey and the entire Bu$h cabal in prison??? One more time, please someone splain that to me???!!! God this stuff makes me crazy and pisses me off for friggin days on end.

Whatever it is, they’re against it

No no-good commie socialist n-word is gonna tell MY kids to work hard an’ stay in school!

The President of the United States should not be taking time away from kids to learn, say rightwingnut morons... so in protest, they’ll be keeping their spawn home today.

"The start of school has been moved ahead a day, so our kids will miss some hard-earned wisdom from the man who proved anyone really can grow up to be President. They will also miss a perfect opportunity to discuss why nut-job conservatives got into such a tizzy over President Obama's back-to-school speech Tuesday to students across the country about the importance of assuming responsibility for their education.

"Why did people who thought it was fine for the first President George Bush to address millions of schoolkids decide it was an outrage for Obama to do the same?"

Conservatards ‘would probably even protest a speech favoring teddy-bears for kids.’

Especially the dark-brown ones.

Is our children learning?

Former first lady shows some class:

Laura Bush got off the sauce long enough to defend President Obama's decision to address the nation's school children, telling CNN Monday that it is "really important for everyone to respect the President of the United States."

"I think that there is a place for the President of the United States to talk to school children and encourage school children, and I think there are a lot of people that should do the same," she said in an interview. "And that is encourage their own children to stay in school and to study hard and to try to achieve the dream that they have."

Even rotund hobgoblin Newt Gingrich found some time between porking mistresses to Twitter his approval:

Just read President Obamas speech to students.white House posted it. it is a good speech and will be good for students to hear

Following with

Remember that Presidents Reagan and Bush with also talked to students nationwide. As long as it is non political and pro education it is good

’Until Rush Limbaugh tells me otherwise’, he left unsaid.

Bigoted, weeping psycho gets award

Mayor of Glenn Beck's hometown to present him with key to city during ‘Closeted Neonazi Loon Glenn Beck Day.’ Winner of the Biggest KKK Hat contest to be awarded tomorrow.

The mayor's office was besieged by so many phone calls Wednesday that his assistant rerouted them to a different city office, which promptly set up a site derogatory to the mayor’s office on FaceBook.

"We've gotten phone calls from people who are very upset. People are threatening not to shop here, things like that," said Kristen Whitener, director of Mount Vernon's Chamber of Commerce. "I think it's unfortunate that some of the phone calls we're getting from people are being negative to Mount Vernon because of it. I hope they would understand that one decision by one person doesn't reflect everybody.

"I hope that it won't put us in a negative light," she said.

Idiots. Maybe next year you could honor the guy who spent the most nights in the town drunk-tank!

Fun fact: when Mayor Bud Norris asked the City Council members if they wanted tickets to the event, “six of the seven declined.”

They'll probably end up getting their windows broken.

.......jobs that can NEVER BE OUTSOURCED....."

really???

REALLY???

From Obi's speech today in Ohio to the Annual AFL-CIO Labor Day picnic, where he said, "An America where energy reform creates green jobs that can never be outsourced and that finally frees America from the grip of foreign oil."

I'm just wonderin' how exactly does that work? How is it that a job "can NEVER be outsourced"???! NEVER, EVER, EVER, EEEEEVER!!!! How?! Exactly.

Who's going to stop some green job corporation from moving overseas to take advantage of slave labor wages and "no-one-gives-a-shit" working conditions??? If that were even possible, to stop outsourcing, why hasn't anyone done it before now??? How are green jobs the "different thing" that would or could stop that nasty crippling process of shipping overseas the jobs that keep a community thriving?

I don't know but that sounds suspiciously like SMOKE being blown up a buncha asses there, Obi. Nice thought, but who exactly are the NO OUTSOURCING police gonna be and how the hell does that work??? hmmmmmmm?

*she's NOT holding her breath for any kinda answer here*

masaccio banged out a great read today about the same thing I was talkin bout in that last post. Making money off the sick and dying..............
Vulture Bonds.
perfect.
Take a stroll on over for a read, and help yourself to a hot dog and a beer on me at today's Labor Day cookout at the Lake.

LET HIM GO!!!!!

So I'm scrubbing the throne this morning, and in the other room the teeveee is on and here comes screaming into the throne room the booming, obnoxious voice of a dead person. Billy Mays, a for real 2009 bonafide friggin zombie. And it occurs to me as I jump at the sound of his dead screamery, trying not to splash Clorox and make unwanted clean spots, that there is something eerie and obscene about the inhuman decision to go on ahead and let a man who has passed, crossed over, a dead guy sell a product. To continue to make some money off of his ass whether he's still breathing or not. There's something just indecent and despicable about that. THE GUY DIED. As in He's NO LONGER WITH US, for chrissakes. Let him GO. How easy can that be on his family or friends or those who actually knew him and actually LIKED/LOVED him to be watching whatevs on their teeveees and there's "dad", or whoever he was to them? That's GOT to be way further down the road from weird....It's creepy to me and I could never even STAND him to begin with. To this day, someone is making money off of him, and his body has already been disposed of, quite some time ago actually. I think there's just something inherently sick about that whole scenario.

"They" pulled that excon type muggeresque shamwow guy after he nailed (with his fist, no less) a prost. As well they should have. No one wants to hear or see or is moved to buy from an abusive prost user. But will they buy from a dead guy? The point being where exactly is the line of decency these days and who the fuck drew it? This is somehow sickly akin to the newest "product" being developed and hawked by the banksters, Bundled Life Insurance Policies:

"The bankers plan to buy “life settlements,” life insurance policies that ill and elderly people sell for cash — $400,000 for a $1 million policy, say, depending on the life expectancy of the insured person. Then they plan to “securitize” these policies, in Wall Street jargon, by packaging hundreds or thousands together into bonds. They will then resell those bonds to investors, like big pension funds, who will receive the payouts when people with the insurance die."

I for one cannot believe that crap's legal!!! I thought we were promised "regulators" at some point. And where are MY shares of their recent profits, since my money bailed out these piece of shit scheisters (AGAINST MY WILL HOSTILE TAKEOVER MOVE, I MIGHT ADD)??? I've not seen any checks in my mails, how bout you?

But I digress..........

Making a buck off the dead or dying. One more thing to add to Maher's New Rule: Not Everything In America Has To Make A Profit. You know where this is headed. Someone figuring out some scam way someday where all of us, the little people, are worth more dead than alive. We'll see how THAT impacts the health care debate!!!

But meanwhile, take Mays off the teeveees. Not because we never did and still don't want to hear his chit, but because it's the decent, human thing to do...........
hello???
Buehler????
gawddamned inhuman corporations!

Quitter leaves former constituents holding the bag

Remember how Sarah Failin quit "to save Alaska money"? Yeah, about that....

Early estimates put the cost of Sarah Palin's midterm resignation as Alaska governor at a minimum of $40,000, not including a special legislative session partly linked to her departure.

The price tag for moving Palin -- the former GOP vice presidential candidate -- and her family from the governor's mansion in Juneau amounted to roughly $3,328.

The tally doesn't include the estimated $100,000 it cost for a one-day special session last month in which lawmakers approved Palin's pick to replace Parnell as lieutenant governor and overrode her veto of federal stimulus funds intended for energy efficiency projects.

Repuke moral values

The Pensito Report: GOP Pusher of 'Obama School Indoctrination' Lie Pushes Republican Views at School Kids.

Florida gpuke chairhead Jim Greer, who "just threw a nationwide hissy fit" decrying Prez Obama’s so-called indoctrination of American schoolkids, made a habit of visiting classrooms to talk about Republican "values." Values that also included making jokes about Hillary Clinton. To sixth-graders.

Scott Maxwell of the Orlando Sentinel:

Are we really so far removed from reality that we don't understand the value of a president encouraging children to work hard?

So I ran Greer's extremist statement by four high-profile Republicans: Gov. Charlie Crist, U.S. Rep. John Mica, State House Speaker-designate Dean Cannon and Orange County GOP leader Lew Oliver.

I chose conservative leaders whose positions I respect. And Crist, too.

I just wanted to see whether a single one had the guts to call Greer out and take a stand for mainstream values and rational debate.

Not a one of them did.

I'm so sick of this shit from people who should know better. Even if they ARE rethugs. For the love of God. Pond scum has more integrity than these vermin.

It's come to this

Conservatards have gone completely fucking bananas. Forget about covering Michael Jackson's funeral or a fist thrown after a college football game, the real news should be the descent into total rabid insanity by the country's right. Steve Benin:

President Obama wants to deliver a message to students next week emphasizing hard work, encouraging young people to do their best in school. The temper tantrum the right is throwing in response only helps reinforce how far gone 21st-century conservatives really are.

The administration has offered to make the text of the address available in advance, just so everyone can see how innocuous it is. It's made no difference. Conservatives don't want school kids to hear a message from their president. Those who claim superiority on American patriotism have decided to throw yet another tantrum over the idea that the president of the United States might encourage young people to do well in schools.

This is what American politics has come to in 2009.

Michelle Cottle:

Obama is the leader of this entire nation. It doesn't matter if you voted for him -- or even if your head threatens to explode every time you think about him. He is the president, and, as such, it's a big deal that he's speaking directly to students about the importance of education. And, whatever one's party registration, the idea that any child should be kept home from class purely so their parents can make a political statement about an apolitical speech is appalling.

Fun fact: Saint Ronnie of Reagan did the same thing in 1986 and 1988. So did George Bush the Slightly Smarter in 1991. And the Dictator-tot "regularly visited individual schools and discussed the importance of education with students," and never once was struck by God's own lightning.

'Indoctrination.' Good fucking gravy. Wtf is wrong with these people???????

The Rude Pundit adds "Regarding Glenn Beck's foray into art criticism of Rockefeller Center, could someone tell him that the whole concept of beating swords into plowshares comes from Isaiah 2:4 in the, you know, Bible?"

So what's going on today?

Well, let's see. The repukes are foaming over their latest outrages: Van Jones is a truther who hates whitey, the President's czars are turning this country into communist Russia, and his upcoming speech intends to turn the nation's schoolchildren into fascist socialist gay Muslim Hitler youth. Meanwhile, questions remain over Glenn Beck's alleged rape and murder of a girl in 1990:



It's not too early to start drinking, right?

Hi all, I’m here, sort of. Please bear with me as I try to break through this horrible inertia which grabs me every time I try to read or watch the news. I owe all of you dear people an apology – and a big one to poor Siri, our newest contributor! – but I haven’t been able to even look at a computer for days. I’m trying, though, really.

And please welcome Siri, who jumped right into covering for my lazy malaised ass!! Thanks, hon!

WOW! MARU'S BACK!!!

Welllll, I see the Reichtards have escalated their outrageous and socially unacceptable behavior UP another notch, and are now actually starting to draw blood!

I'm a little surprised it took this long. With all the venom and napalm spewing rhetoric coming from Glenn Blehck and Limp Rashballs, along with MOST of the rethugs in BOTH houses of congress, joined by their unholy chorus of cohorts that passes for "mainstream media" in 2009 America, it's a little amazing that the first town hall injuries are just starting to occur.

Don't ya have to wonder how bad this has to get and how long it needs to go on before someone does something to attempt to restore some civility and law abidance to these events?

Dude had his friggin finger bitten off, already!!

I'm glad neither one of them was packin'......, ya know? And no doubt this will turn out to be another person who has no health care and will want someone else to pay the bills, or will start a "MyFingerPAC", or something.

Sorry that this isn't a particularly funny post. But it's not a particularly funny situation, honestly. It's sad when STOOOPID gets so burning that it turns SCARY and we have to see American on American political violence erupt.

Hitler finds out Americans are calling each other Nazis

Mexican drowns love child of extraterrestial + Michael Jackson

Or something.


I love shit like this.

Sanford: 'God told me not to quit'

Oh, and also that my lieutenant governor is gayer than a 3 dollar bill.

[T]he rumor has continued to circulate widely on the web and has become caught up in the continuing drama surrounding Sanford, whose adulterous affair with an Argentine women has led to calls for his resignation. Bauer, who would succeed Sanford if he left office, called for Sanford to resign last week.

Bonus Christian value-izing for the adulterous quasi-embezzler: Bauer is a fellow republican.

Doing it right

Crazed harpy Michele Bachmann (R-urrrrrrr) urges opponents of health care reform to "slit their wrists" in a covenant:

"This [health care reform] cannot pass…What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing. This will not pass. We will do whatever it takes to make sure this doesn't pass ... Right now, we are looking at reaching down the throat and ripping the guts out of freedom. And we may never be able to restore it if we don't man up and take this one on."

Man up, nancies! Go for it!

57 varieties of companies hate America

Other need to ketchup.

Eleven new companies join the growing list of those pulling ads from the Fox Nooze race-baiting psycho’s hate-program:

Binder & Binder
Capital One
The Dannon Company
Discover
HSBC
ICAN Benefit Group Insurance
Infiniti
Jelmar (manufacturer of CLR All-Purpose Cleaner)
Jordan McKenna Debt Counseling Network
Mercedes-Benz and
Simplex Healthcare (creator of the Diabetes Care Club)

— have pledged to take steps to ensure that their ads don’t run on Glenn Beck’s show. Fifty-seven companies have now committed not to support Beck since ColorOfChange.org launched its campaign four weeks ago after the [weeping nutjob] called President Obama a "racist" who "has a deep-seated hatred for white people" during an appearance on Fox & Fiends.

Freedom-loving rethuglicans shut down pro-health care rally in central PA

Health vigil canceled due to death threats, or as the right calls them, “patriotic free speechifyin’”:

Rod Hill was among a group set to give examples to illustrate the need for health care reform, as the local version of candlelight vigils held nationwide under the sponsorship of MoveOn.org and other groups.

But a rash of phone calls allegedly threatening boycotts of businesses connected with the complex - and alleged death threats - led to a late withdrawal of permission for the event.

Reaching down the throat and ripping the guts out of freedom INDEED. And at a townhell meeting in NJ, a woman in a wheelchair feels the wrath of the braindead:

Much like the unruly town hall meetings that have been going on across the country, the angry crowd held up bizarre and nonsensical posters of protest while hurling insults at Rep. Pallone, and each other…

A new low for these meetings may have been set when the crowd shouted down a wheelchair-bound woman with "two incurable auto-immune diseases" who had the gall to ask a question.

Jeebus God.

Pat Buchanan: ‘Hitler wasn’t such a bad guy’

Der Fuehrer didn't want war, Poland, explains slobbering neonazi jerkwad. And that whole ‘final solution’ thing? It was taken out of context.

”[W]here is the evidence that Adolf Hitler, whose victims as of March 1939 were a fraction of Gen. Pinochet’s, or Fidel Castro’s, was out to conquer the world? Indeed, why would he want war when, by 1939, he was surrounded by allied, friendly or neutral neighbors, save France. And he had written off Alsace, because reconquering Alsace meant war with France, and that meant war with Britain, whose empire he admired and whom he had always sought as an ally....”

And then it gets worse. Why is this asshole still on tv??

Your republic is under attack!

The commie fascist socialist Kenyan is indoctrinating your kids – by telling them how important it is to work hard and go to school. Jamison Foser reports:

If there is anybody out there who still doesn't believe that the conservative media will attack President Obama no matter what he does, consider this: Right-wingers are telling children to skip school as a protest against Obama's encouragement of students to stay in school.

WorldNutDaily said Obama's planned speech "raises the specter of the Civilian National Security Force" and promoted comparisons to Hitler's youth brigade. The chairman of the Florida Republican Party is condemning Obama's speech as an attempt to "indoctrinate America's children to his socialist agenda."

Radio host Tammy Bruce asked "TownHall Patriots" to help organize "PASS Day Picnics" -- that's "Parentally Approved Skip School Day," for the uninitiated. In a blog post under a close-up photo her hand holding a gun, Bruce added that "Urkel" -- that's her pet name for Obama -- is going to "make a grab for your kids" and that he is "setting us on fire."

Newsmax writer Pam Geller agreed that the last place kids should be next Tuesday is school, urging parents to keep their kids home lest they be "brainwash[ed]" by the "fascist in chief."

This is BEYOND crazy. WTF is wrong with these people?

Keepin' us safer

The Dick “3000 citizens were killed on my watch!” Cheney Rolling Embarrassment Parade continues, says the Angry Liberal:

”Mr. VP, I believe your entire eight years, as you say, in office were not without an attack. I believe something really big occurred not too long after you took control of the country. Yes, it's one "incident" but it's the mother-of-all national security f*ck-ups, a hugely tragic event that if it occurred while say Clinton was top dog, the Republicans would've stormed the White House and drove him out with torches and rocks, and to this day we would've never stopped hearing about it, the blame, the condemnation, the incompetence.”

"Dick Cheney: wrong then, wrong now."

JENNAs BUSH

Re the PATHETIC state of the United States media.................
I.............

We.........................

I just don't know how to even begin to address this.

Jenna fucking Bush is going to co-ho The Mo Sho and I am once again stuck in the boat called "Let's CENTER STAGE someone NO ONE ever wanted to ever hear from in the first damned place!!!!"

No, of course I don't WATCH that pos program! I have blood pressure to put through college here......., but it'll be the total rage don't ya know. Everyone will be talking, blogging, videoing, commenting about it everywhere on the Planet Webz and it'll be about as easy to get away from as Raygun's stupid funeral was/is. So it doesn't matter if I actually WATCH the damned thing or not. UNLESS I GO AHEAD AND MOVE TO THE CAVE OF MY DREAMS SOMEWHERE, I'll end up having that asshole speaking in my face at some point.

And some idjit, prollly in the first 2 minutes of her appearance is just BOUND to ask her "So, Jenna!!! How IS your dear ol' dad??? How the hell are they doin' down there in Uberwhite Dallass any ol' who????>" ya know? And she'll sit there all bot faced and give some stupid answer that won't be "Dad's great. They don't have steps in their new house and Manuel grooms the lawn so he's not clearing brush and worrying about mom on the stairs any more, so he just wonders about the place going from cocktail to cocktail till it's the cocktail hour when he has a few cocktails and waits for his first multi thousand dollar speech offer to come in. He's just GREAT (for someONE responsible for over a million deaths over NOTHING), THANKS for asking." At which point I'm going to have to go on in, throw up for a while and have to start drinking all over again!!!

Gawd.

I always thought she looks a lot like her mom.

How bout you?

Click & vote on this? I think it's that if it gets enough votes, they'll post it and others can see it or something. And I think it's a dead on match on multiple levels.
heh heh indeeedy.

Epics of Modern Political Discourse

As the corporate funded Demoncraps move to the right, Michelle Bachman leads the Rushthuglibots to the insane asylum:

This cannot pass. What we have to do today is make a covenant, to slit our wrists, be blood brothers on this thing. This will not pass. We will do whatever it takes to make sure this doesn’t pass.

Ground Control to Reich-Wingnut space cadets:
Wrist-slitting is not covered under most forms of private insurance, if you have it, just saying.
Now slit away!

What the Fucking Fuck is WRONG With These People Things????!!!??

And I pray, fervently, that lightning strikes this asshats church, on Sunday, when the entire gun toting congregation is inside, and there's a gas leak and a huge fucking explosion which levels the hateful place.
Shit like this is why I don't post much anymore.
Watch and puke.......
