It's All In The Numbers.

The GOP (Gang of Prevaricators) swept into office on a tidal wave of…..check that, they slipped into the back door on the lowest voter turn out since 1942.  36% of eligible voters determined who will run the country.  Wow, isn’t that something to be proud of.  Of course the Democrats have a big part in this by not presenting more than a couple of viable candidates.

Democrats need a strong person who expresses his or her views and values in a convincing articulate way.  They don’t vote against something or someone nearly as much as they like to vote for someone or something.  They also need a candidate who is not some wimpy Republican Lite who wouldn’t stand up for their own President.

On the other hand, Republicans don’t need good candidates; they just need someone who has a pulse and say they are a Republican.  
  
And the story line of the day is that now the Republicans will have to govern.  That’s a laugh. That’s the same as handing a 16 year old kid, who has never been inside an automobile, the keys to the car and saying ok, you can drive across the country now.

George Warmonger Bush crawled out from under his rock and went on the TV Sunday.  He said he had no regrets for lying to the American people, starting an extremely costly war in lives and money, blowing through the surplus that was left him and leaving the country in a financial melt-down.  Georgey Pooh went on the say “No, I think you have to earn your way into politics. I don't think that anything is ever given to you." Yeah like this bonehead would have gotten to the oval office if his name was George W. Smith.

Stay tuned for future adventures.

Monday Morning Quarterback

There was a time when being a conservative wasn’t a bad thing in my mind.  I have had a number of close friends through the years that considered themselves conservative and there were very few things that we actually disagreed on but that was before the Republicans got taken over by the religious right and the Tea Party. 

Today when I hear someone say he or she is a conservative, I automatically assume they are intolerant, ignorant, and racist because that is all I hear coming out of the Republican Party.  The good news is that intolerant, ignorant racists have always been on the wrong side of everything in history. Along the way they may have won a few battles but in every instance they have always lost the war.  All of the things that were going to end the world if they came to past, like women’s suffrage, civil rights and gay rights have proven the conservatives were wrong.

George Warmonger Bush is promoting an initiative to help veterans.  Ole George who started the Shockingly Awe-full war in Iraq now wants to help the veterans.  "I have a duty," Bush said in an interview that aired on Sunday on ABC's "This Week." What an asshole.  George, you had a duty not to send soldiers unnecessarily in harms way. Don’t get me wrong, I hope it does help the veterans because they deserve all the help they can get, but I sure as hell don’t trust this jerk to do anything for the right reason.  I have the feeling all he is trying to do is salvage some of his crappy legacy. 

Primary elections are coming up here in Texas and the airwaves are filled Republican candidates spewing how much they love God, how ultra-conservative they are and how everyone of them are fighting Obama no matter what office they are running for. I saw an ad for a guy running for dog catcher and he said he would fight Obama tooth and nail.  Seems like a bit much.  

NASCAR nation is happy.  Dale (I'm a Rocket Man) Earnhardt Jr. won the Daytona 500 yesterday.  The race lasted all day because they had a six and half hour delay because of rain.  You know if they wouldn't have that problem if they would just put windshield wipers on those cars.



Stay tuned for future adventures.

Harrumph Day

''Rarely is the questioned asked: Is our children learning?''
—George W. Bush, Jan. 11, 2000







George Bush. "All Hat and No Cattle.



Here is the real question.  Do we really want another inept, incompetent, out of his league clown from Texas as President?

Rick Perry, “All Hair and No Clue.”

Newton Leroy (One is the loneliest number) Gingrich vowed Sunday night in Los Angles to continue fighting for the Republican nomination for president, "no matter what it takes." He said he is hitting the campaign trail first thing next week or for sure the week after.  Their first stop is Rodeo Drive, then on to Tiffany’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Macy’s.

Nitwit and his campaign staff had a disagreement on which direction his campaign was going.  Nitwit said he thought they were going to Washington and the staff said they thought the campaign was going to Hell in a hand basket. .

 
I’m a little surprised that Nancy (Big Mouth, Little Brain) Pelosi wants Congressman Tony (I’ll show you mine if you will…oh what the heck, here is mine)Weiner to step down.  As long as he is in the spotlight most of her dumb comments go unnoticed. 

The upcoming Sarah (I may not look dumb, but I is) Palin documentary is entitled “The Undefeated.”  What? THE UNDEFEATED…? Did I miss something?  Is Sarah Palin Vice-President and John McCain President?   I don’t think so.  I believe a more appropriate title would have been “The Uncompleted” since she can’t seem to finish anything…you know, like her term as Governor of Alaska.  Critics of the documentary say Sarah attacks the Republican Old Guard.   Excuse me, like there is a “New Guard” in the Republican Party.  I don’t think so. GOP…Grumpy Old People.

Congressman Tony (Teeny Weeny) Weiner is taking a leave of absence to seek professional help.  Word is he’s taking a Photoshop class. 

The U.S. Sergeant at Arms Office confirmed Monday that the Senate's website had been hacked this past weekend.  An office official said it was mostly just inconvenient.  Well yeah, like these boneheads know anything.

The so called Republican debate Monday night should have been called a meeting of the Mutual Admiration Society.  I am pretty sure they were all holding hands and blowing kisses at one another when it was over. 

 

Bret (From Cheese-head to Dick-head) Farve sorta acted like he was retiring yesterday.  He said, “I’ve been beat up enough.”  Of course the father of the girl Bret sent his last cell phone text to didn’t agree.




Stay tuned for future adventures.

April 1st. National Politicians Day

Today is April Fools Day or as I like to call it, National Politician Day.  Today we get to talk like a politician all day.  It’s sorta like, "Talk Like a Pirate Day" except you get to "Talk Like a Politician."  You get to say things like this:

• “Hi, I’m Sarah Palin.  You can see Russia from my front porch.  I think that’s Russia, although it doesn’t look very red does it?  Anyway I also would like to go on record as saying I think Kim Jon il is a terrible dictator and I feel sorry for all the poor people having to live under his rein in North Dakota.”

• “Hello, I’m Michael Bachman, Republican Representative from Minnesota.  I would just like to thank John Quincy Adams for not only brewing a great beer, but for writing the Emancipation Proclamation freeing the Indians and for signing the Contract With America.”

• “Hi I’m Newt Gingrich, a true, family-values person and I have a number of families to prove it. I am currently on marriage number three and I’m still in the prime of my life, so who knows. I could break Larry King’s record yet.” 

• “Hello there, I’m George W. Bush and I would just like to say, fool me once and I might forget it, but fool me twice and I uh, let’s see, fool me twice and I er, uh ….I will be dubya mad.  Get it; I said dubya instead of double…Made that one up myself.” (Smirk and stupid head nod goes here.)

• “I’m Richard Nixon and I’m not a crook.  I’m a liar and a creep; you can tell that by looking at me, but I’m not a crook.  Crooks carry guns and wear a mask. Well, the Lone Ranger carried a gun and wore a mask and he wasn’t a crook, but he was the exception.  Although now that I think of it, his best friend was an Indian. Ok so I’m a racist, but I’m not a crook.”

• “Hey there, I’m Donald Rumsfield.  There are known knowns.  There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns and then there is the fact that I know absolutely nothing about anything.  So no, I don’t know, but when you go to a press conference, you go with what you’ve got, or was that when you go to war?”

• “Hi there, I’m John McCain and I have served our country in every war since the Civil War and I'm proud of it. If fact I just got back from my third deployment to Iraq last night.  I would just like to say to all of the wonderful people of this great country, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE forgive me for introducing Sarah Palin to the world.  I’m not a maverick; I’m senile…Why else would I choose that pinhead to be my running mate?”

• “I’m Tom DeLay one of the most powe….what? ..Tom DeLay, that’s T  O  M  big D ..little e…What? No I’m not from Dallas…I’m from Sugar Land and I’m one the biggest Republican polit….What? No, I was House Majority Whip not Dip…Look I’m a really powerful…Oh forget it!  Just tell me which cell is mine.”

• “Hello, I’m Ronald Reagan, you probably remember me from TV or B-movies, but my real claim to fame is my supply-side economic policies which I called Reaganomics.  Of course they were a complete disaster for the country and led to the giant recession we just went through but I personally made a boat load of money.  Why do you think I called them “Reaganomics instead of Americanomics?”

• “Hello I’m Dick Cheney. Screw you.”
