Sho Shad

See – libruls were warned and we did nothing to stop it: just the desire for gay marriage alone, not the act itself, is destroying wonderful ‘straight’ marriage in a wide and depressing swath across the nation. The latest sad tale involves Karl Rove and his second traditional marriage. The man fought the good fight, did everything right, and still, his forbidden love for Jeff Gannon/Jim Guckert that dare not speak its name has finally won out. Declaring  their time together during many, many White House sleepovers as a big rainbow of a mistake, Karl contented himself with stroking his … Continue reading Sho Shad

Your Other Arm Works Just Fine

Campaign contributions from Big Health aside for a moment, why in the world are Republicans adopting such a sour, willfully obtuse posture toward health care reform? They did not object to whirligig spending toward never-ending war with a country that didn’t attack us on 9/11. Suddenly the deficit is their top concern. They don’t mind that 45,000 of their fellow Americans die each year from a lack of health care. Yet they claim to be the pro-life party. That’s fifteen 9/11s. Every year. The Party of No wants no end to that. Republicans are truly acting like Democrats want to line up the whole population … Continue reading Your Other Arm Works Just Fine

Ich bin ein Teebeutelmann

May Teabaggers be blessed by The Fates. Please, keep pushing the Republican Rump as far to the hard right as you can – I gotta tell ya, you’re just not pure enough yet. New York 23 was only the beginning, chumps! Bonus points: they have Newtie’s substantial tummy all rumbly and queasy. Thinking of sending these circus geeks some jing… Continue reading Ich bin ein Teebeutelmann

Pass Them a Cigarette, fer Pete’s Sake

Now that the orgasmic tsunami that overtook Creepublicans Republicans when Chicago lost the 2016 Summer Olympics has begun to subside, can we assume they will not cheer for Americans when the games begin? Based on the magnitude of their glee at America’s loss, Bill Kristol and his trained monkeys will be rooting for the Iranians and the North Koreans. Continue reading Pass Them a Cigarette, fer Pete’s Sake

Commies that Play Barbie™

So – reluctantly, I’ve taken the chance of sending my two daughters to school today, knowing full well there’s a chance they’ll come back as commie pinkos, seeing as how their school will allow them to hear – and see! – President Obama’s manifesto via the TV Machine and Internet Tubes.  Under his jackboot of collectivism, my kids might transform into spies for the state, and will no doubt occasionally  need to turn in their parents for not having adequate socialistic fervor. At least they’re learning! Continue reading Commies that Play Barbie™

Just Another Whore of Babylon

Crappy bass player and Palin competitor, Mike Huckabee, just hates it when libruls remind each other – everybody, really – that Ted Kennedy would’ve wanted us to complete his life’s work. But that does not stop this repulsive troll cagey gent from dragging Sen. Kennedy’s corpse through the street: “[I]t was President Obama himself who suggested that seniors who don’t have as long to live might want to consider just taking a pain pill instead of getting an expensive operation to cure them,” said Huckabee. “Yet when Sen. Kennedy was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer at 77, did he give up … Continue reading Just Another Whore of Babylon

Idaho? No, He da Ho

I realize that this guy got his name from some sticky 70s porno flick, but putting that aside, Rep. Rex Rammell (R-Crackerland) must be one of the funniest dudes in the House. Rammell’s comment about buying a license to hunt Obama has received national play in newspapers, on television and on the Web. Rammell made the comment Tuesday at a Republican barbecue in Twin Falls during talk [sic] about Idaho selling its first $11.50 hunting tags for wolves this fall. Someone shouted “Obama tags,” and Rammell said, “The Obama tags? We’d buy some of those.” Snappy! On Friday, he said … Continue reading Idaho? No, He da Ho

Pray for Barack Obama to Die and Go to Hell

Don’t blame me for the title, I just did a copy-paste. And Wingnuttia got uptight over Pres. Obama’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright? TPM reports: Chris Broughton, the man who brought an assault rifle and a handgun to the Obama event in Arizona last week, attended a fiery anti-Obama sermon the day before the event, in which Pastor Steven Anderson said he was going to “pray for Barack Obama to die and go to hell.” Life will be lost before this boil is lanced. One wonders why church attendance has dropped. Continue reading Pray for Barack Obama to Die and Go to Hell

The Great White Dope

Don’t you see?  There’s nothing wrong with Kansas. From the Topeka Capitol-Journal: U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins [R-Emerald City] offered encouragement to conservatives at a town hall forum that the Republican Party would embrace a “great white hope” capable of thwarting the political agenda endorsed by Democrats who control Congress and President Barack Obama. You got your “great,” “white” and “hope” associated with one another, and Jenkins’ press shill decided to improve the situation: “There’s no doubt the Republican Party has gone through some dark and challenging times in recent years, but thankfully bright young leaders have stepped up to lead … Continue reading The Great White Dope

Last of the Greats

The Party of Nihilists™ stays classy, as usual. But the outpouring of sentiment for Ted Kennedy overwhelmingly is not based in the Oxycontin slurry that passes for “conservative thought”. Hacking away at Teddy’s memory will not well serve the whackadoodle AM radio talkers well, but that won’t stop them. Let them hang burning tires around their own necks, see if I care. A man of extreme privilege who looked out for the little guy – quite unlike Ronald Reagan, who started out as a little guy that ended up looking out for people of privilege. Ted was the last of … Continue reading Last of the Greats

Pander Patrol

Think Progress continually commits the outrageous act of repeating public pronouncements made by politicians and pundits. Which brings us to this guy, who sometimes behaves fairly rationally around normal to semi-normal people. This, from just weeks ago: “I believe Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, when Hawaii was a state — in the United States — and therefore he’s a constitutionally natural-born citizen of this country.” Please notice that to him, it’s a matter of “belief.” But sadly, his belief system has been shaken to its core. From just a couple days ago in the Mohave Daily News: Franks said … Continue reading Pander Patrol

At Least the Dude’s Honest

Budding seditionist and certified lamebrain Rep.Wally Herger (R-Leavenworth) has nothing but praise, succor and encouragement for terrorism at a recent meeting slagging health care reform. From Mount Shasta Area Newspapers, via Washington Monthly: Herger said the federal government does have a limited role to play in health care noting, “We do lots of things that are not in the Constitution.” “There are things we can do with health care, as long as the government is not running it,” Herger said. One speaker said he could trace his ancestors back to the Mayflower and said “they did not arrive holding their hands … Continue reading At Least the Dude’s Honest

Operation Big Pink

We need her to sign The Pledge, at the point of a gun libruls confiscate from her: “I will refuse all Nazi-based federal Obamacon health benefits – including Medicare and Medicaid – for large pink people, for the rest of my diabetic, heart-diseased life.” Gotta give massive, portly props to anyone who can find room for a cross, peace symbol and a swastika on the same poster – before she keels over. Continue reading Operation Big Pink

The Pay or Die System

Alright, alright, I think I get it: I pay premiums to an insurance company for coverage, which in turn pays its employees to find ways to deny me coverage; the more they deny, the bigger the bonus. My premium dollars are also used to pay executive salaries that are, well…  American in their magnificence. These same executives use more of my premium dollars to “encourage” thier employees to show up and protest health care reform. They use even more of my premium dollars to buy ads advocating against a competitive public option. Whatever’s left of my premium dollars is used … Continue reading The Pay or Die System

Deatherwisher Is As Deatherwisher Does

From Talking Points Memo and CNN’s Ed Henry, who spotted more signs of armed insurrection, and they’ve upped the ante to a pair of AR-15s: One man, whose presence we noted earlier, was an African-American man who didn’t seem to make completely clear what his political position was. But the second, who we haven’t seen any pictures of, was apparently holding his assault rifle while chanting against socialism and denouncing Obama’s policies. Does someone have to die before the Secret Service drops the hammer on these guys? I know it’s legal to carry, but can they enter a concert, or … Continue reading Deatherwisher Is As Deatherwisher Does

Simply Put: Republicans are Liars

Thank you, Amy Sullivan of Time, for calling out the lying Republican Haters: Remember the 2003 Medicare prescription drug bill, the one that passed with the votes of 204 GOP House members and 42 GOP Senators? Anyone want to guess what it provided funding for? Did you say counseling for end-of-life issues and care? Ding ding ding!! Ding, ding, ding, indeed. The Republicans’ time is SO UP. Lead or follow, you lying clowns, but get the hell outta the way. Did I mention that Republicans are liars? Continue reading Simply Put: Republicans are Liars

Where are the Christians? The Real Ones, I Mean, Not the Death-Wishers

Are they holding up this sign? Hope not. HAGERSTOWN, Md. – The Secret Service is investigating a man who authorities said held a sign reading “Death to Obama” outside a town hall meeting on health-care reform in western Maryland. The sign also read, “Death to Michelle and her two stupid kids,” referring to the first name of President Barack Obama‘s wife, said Washington County Sheriff‘s Capt. Peter Lazich. So, like radio talker Ed Schultz says today, where are the people that profess to be Christian? Why are they not out there denouncing this kind of stuff? And why are they … Continue reading Where are the Christians? The Real Ones, I Mean, Not the Death-Wishers

Money for Nothing

From the AP via Raw Story: DENVER (AP) — A “serious budget shortfall” at Focus on the Family has prompted the conservative Christian group to issue a special fundraising plea, and contributed to a decision to cede control of its contentious “Love Won Out” conferences about homosexuality to another religious organization, a spokesman said Tuesday. I’ll agree with a commenter: The Lord works in mysterious & wonderful ways. There should be no alarm over at Focus on the Family – budget shortfalls can be made up by the usual fear-mongering. It’s just a question of targets: gays, Obama, libruls – … Continue reading Money for Nothing
