Monday Morning Quarterback

According to the latest polls Ted (Head Kochroach) Cruz is the leader of the Republican Party. This is probably the best news the Democrats have had in years. Let’s look back at some of the early poll leaders in Republican Party over the last few years.  There was Rudy Giuliani, Michele Bachman, Rick Santorum, Rick Perry, Herman Cain, Rand Paul, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, John McCain and of course Sarah Palin. Talk about a who’s who of losers.

The LAX shooter was carrying a “manifesto” associated with the antigovernment “patriot” movement.  Hmmm, sounds like he was a member of the Tea Party.  After all the Tea Party mostly consists of illiterate, gun toting, racist wrapped up in the American flag and spewing biblical crap who couldn’t spell Tea Party if you spotted them the T and A.

It appears that 60 Minutes has egg all over its face, the large 4 egg omelet kind. Last weeks interview with a man who said he was a security officer who witnessed the attack has turned out to be all lies.  According to his official report that he turned after the attack, he wasn’t even there. Even Fox News turned this guy down after he wanted money. I mean if the boneheads at Faux News turned down a chance to slam Hilary and the White House, you know this guy was pulling a Cruz. 

Mitt (I Was Wrong, 51% Didn't Vote for Me) Romney said Sunday that President Barack Obama’s "fundamental dishonesty" on the Affordable Care Act has “put in peril the whole foundation of his second term.”  Wow, I guess that puts Obama’s third term in office in real jeopardy..

I just saw a headline that said, Man pepper-sprays a woman, steals her monkey.  Is that code for something?

''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.

Sarah's Bust Tour

Sarah Palin will embark on a one nation tour of historical sites this weekend that were key to the formation, survival and growth of the United States of America. Sarah says she will begin her trip in Washington D.C. where Lincoln gave his famous Gettysburg  address freeing the American Indians.

Then she is traveling to Philadelphia to see where Quasimodo rang the Liberty Bell so hard that he cracked it.  She said she is also going by Ben Franklin’s house to see where he invented electricity.

From there Sarah said she will go to Boston and the Old North Church where Paul Revere & The Raiders recorded “Just Like Us” and “Kicks,” and then down to Plymouth Rock to visit where Christopher Columbus ran the Mayflower ashore and opened the first Pilgrims Cleaners.

Also a two-hour film about Sarah Palin’s governorship will debut in Iowa next month. Coincidentally that is just about how long she was Governor

Mitt Romney is expected to announce he is running for President of something next week.  I’m not sure if it is President of Utah or the United States. At this time, Romney leads most national GOP popularity polls. I think that has to do with the way the question was worded on the poll. It asked if all the Republican candidates suddenly came down with the plague, who would you give the antidote to? 

So Paul Ryan and the Republican Party are saying that Democrat Kathy Hochul used scare tactics about Medicare to win the New York House of Representatives seat this week.  Let’s see, this is from the party that came up with “Death Panels,” “Rationing for the elderly,” and     “Obama’s birth certificate”  

Phoenix Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who calls himself “America’s toughest sheriff,” may have to change his name to “America’s dumbest sheriff.”  Three of his employees have been arrested on drug and human trafficking charges. Marcella Hernandez, a detention officer, said she is eight-months pregnant with the child of the alleged drug ring's leader.  Sounds like she was working undercover…or was it under the covers?

Grimsvotn, Iceland’s most active volcano erupted this past Saturday.   The Icelandic government has been understandably worried about the eruption’s impact on the tourism business but so far all nine tourists confirmed they were still making the trip.

 
This quote from a movie reviewer  “Second 'Hangover' feels awfully familiar” ….YOU THINK..

 Yesterday Congress voted to extend The Big Brother Patriot Act.

Looks like the Republicans are starting to send in the big guns, or is it clowns. Tim(talk about bullshit, I’ve got) Pawlenty, former governor of Minnesota, has announced he is running for President.  He said, "I'm going to take a different approach. I am going to tell you the truth."  Here are my thoughts on that statement.  Anytime you have to tell people you are telling the truth, you are probably lying.  The honest person automatically thinks you think he is telling you the truth. 

One thing for sure about Tim (talk about bullshit, I’ve got) Pawlenty, is that if you happen to be poor, abused or orphaned because you were unlucky enough to be born to bad parents, don’t expect any help from him.  Here is quote from Tim in 2001 when he was a member of the Minnesota House of Representatives. "Children who are victims of failed personal responsibility are not my problem, nor are they the problem for our government.”  Of course he is Pro-Life, he just doesn’t care if you have a very good life.  Just another Compassionate Conservative at work.  

He also said on the Today show. “I’ll bring the solutions forward that will actually fix the country.”  Gee I wonder if he is going to fix the country like he fixed Minnesota.  The former Governor left Minnesota with the largest deficit in 152 years.  Yeah, he fixed those Minnesotans alright. Also remember that Tim is the guy who came in second to Sarah Palin when John McCain was deciding on a running mate.

Here is a real winner or should I say whiner. Rick (I need to be in a) Santorum, former Republican Senator from Pennsylvania is expected to throw his room key into the fray next week.  He is another Compassionate Conservative who is a major gay basher, pro-lifer, isolationist who is not even considered a long shot.  To be considered to be a long shot, you at least have to have a chance.

In the words of that famous political pundit Michael Vick, so far this election is shaping up to be a fight between a Rottweiler and a couple of Chihuahuas.

And speaking of clowns, Rush (I’m living proof that drugs cause brain damage) Slimebaugh and Sean (I’m even dumber than Rush) Hannity ratings are down about 30%.  Looks like these boneheads are finally talking their way out of a gig.  Of course the majority of their audience is made up of old white males which is pretty much the same make-up of the GOP.(grumpy old people).

Harold (two strikes) Camping is at it again. Now he says Judgment Day will be Oct 21st.  Damn, and I have a great Halloween costume for this year.  I was going to go as Newton Leroy(nitwit) Gingrich.  All I need is a shoe to stick in my mouth. 

Joesph Brooks, who wrote“You Light up my life” possibly the sappiest song ever written and recorded, killed himself this week at the age of 73.  I’m surprised he let himself live this long.   Before you think I am too harsh on Joe, he was awaiting trial on allegations that he lured women to his apartment through an online ad offering auditions for a movie role and then raped them.

Today's good read is The Trinity Six by Charles Cumming.  This is a well written Cold War spy novel that puts a new spin one of Britain's most  notorious spy rings.

Straight Talk About The Military's Gay Policy

According to a story on the net, Senator John McCain and his wife Cindy are on opposite sides of the policy for gays in the military.  John prefers “Don’t ask. Don’t tell.”  Cindy likes “I’m gay and I have a gun, so shut the fuck up.”

As I have reported in a previous post, Lady GaGa spoke before a congressional hearing on the policy of gays in the military early this year.  She is proposing they change it to “I’ll show you mine if you’ll show me yours.”

I understand that Elton John has weighed in on the “Don’t ask. Don’t tell.” and wants to change it to “Oooh do tell. Where did you get that fabulous scarf?”

 The late Jerry Farwell said he thought the policy ought to be “If God hates gays, then so should Uncle Sam” then he died and went to hell.

Well it seems ole “W” didn’t write everything in his book after all. More than likely the only thing George actually wrote in “Decision Points” is his name at book signings. Sources have found 16 instances of similarities between Bush passages and previously written books, newspaper or magazine articles.  It appears that George lifted quotes from other people and used them as if he said them and put in conversations with people that never happened.  Sounds pretty much like his presidency to me.

Mitt Romney is not running for president, yet but, a number of big donors have given $100,000, or more, to Mr. Romney.  The problem is that only takes care of his hair stylist.

Voters in Arizona just approved medical marijuana this past election.  They also have the toughest immigration laws in the country.  Obviously these people don’t know where pot comes from.

Speaking of the election, it’s been almost two weeks since the Republicans swept into office and I haven’t seen one thing change.
