Well done teabaggers

By all means teabaggers, keep doing what you people are doing. Keep moving the Republican party to the right. It worked really great for your party in 1964 with Goldwater, it should work wonders in 2010 with nuts like Angle and that anti masturbation chick from Delaware.

Those dirty Russians

Bill 'The Incorrect Pundit' Kristol says the Russians have no one to blame but themselves for the suicide bombings that took place in Moscow.

Don't you love how conservative pundits and radical right wing religious extremist ministers always blame the victims of these types of incidents?

By all means keep doing what you're doing

The right wingers are just beside themselves these days what with a black man being our President elect and bigger Democratic party majorities in the Congress. And I couldn't be happier. There's plenty of blame to go around for their losses and as usual there's plenty of bat shit crazy to go around when it comes to their thinking of how they can hijack the country once again.

I'm praying to the dark gods that spawned me that they keep the same people in power who led them to their current place. I'd love to see that fish faced prig from Kentucky Mitch McConnell stay the leader of the Republicans in the Senate and that conservative douche/gas bag Jim Boner stay in charge of the House Republicans. They poisoned the minds of many voters in the past two years with their obstructionist ways and the people rewarded them in kind. So hell yes, keep on listening to those two grinning baying jackals you Republicans, and while you're at it, find a few more like these two to lead your party in Congress long after they die.

Please right wingers, could you also keep listening to your media pundits? Laura Inghram is spot on when she says that you need to stop being moderates and go back to being even more conservative. Yes please! Do that! Follow Miss Laura and that pretty hateful little can of bile that is Michelle Malkin. Those two really know what they are talking about when they say that you've got to move further to the right, after all they're rich and somewhat famous, so in the minds of your party they are super in touch with what the people in the heartland and the fly over states want. Yes! Michelle, Coultergiest, and Laura all know that the people who live out here in the real America want more more more tax breaks for business and millionaires. They just know that we want to stay at war forever and ever and that we all hate gay and lesbian people. Heck yes, these three have their heads planted firmly up their asses so please oh pretty please keep on listening to them.

And don't forget your terrible trio of male pundits, Rush, Rove, and Bill Kristol, who need to be kept on and left to blather their nonsense at all costs. All three got everything wrong. All three are helping kill any chance you once had at a permanent Republican majority. All three offer nothing but failed policies and division, so yes please, keep all three and give them more air time! Give them each their own TV show!! Hell, give them their own freakin' TV channel!!!

Don't forget not to kick those religious nut bags like Dobson, Rick Warren, and Pat Robertson out of your party as well. You need to stay in bed with those people just like you've done for the past 30 years. They really know what they're talking about when they say that Jesus hates teh gay, lazy people, and the poor and that only rich white folk are going to heaven. Forgiveness? Not so much. Hatred and demonizing of any one who isn't one of them, hell yeah! Shoot yeah, you keep those nut bags in your Grand Old Party forever because they give the Christian religion such a good name!

Oh yeah, let's not forget your pretty new fairy princess Sarah Palin. Please, oh, pretty please make her the head of your party. She's just what you guys need. It's time for someone who rose to power by swimming in the corrupt murky waters that are Alaska politics to lead you. It's time for an intellectual lightweight who can't speak in complete sentences to be your standard bearer. Yes, by all means give the reins of power to a person who has led only a tiny town and the least populous state in the union. Yes, oh yes, let someone who wears her badge of ignorance proudly lead your party... straight off the cliff.

While I'm on the subject of Sarah Palin let's get a few things straight:

• It's not sexist to accuse her of being unintelligent because she is pretty dumb, she thinks the world is only 6000 years old and that her god put everything where you see it today.
• It's not sexist to bring up the fact that the RNC spent god knows how much money on her wardrobe while they preached fiscal responsibility for the rest of us.
• It's not sexist to say that she appeals to the worst elements of the Republican base and that her job in the McCain campaign was to look pretty and be the attack dog at the same time.
• It's not sexist to point out she has no idea what freedom of speech is and what Vice President's job is.
• It's entirely fair to demand to know about the associations of her and her husband with people who hate this country. Her husband after all was in a political party that wants Alaska to secede from our union.

So hells yeah Republicans, keep doing what you're doing because it's working for me and millions of other liberals and progressives like me. Keep going to the right, keep on listening to rich people who "know" what we working class schlubs want, and stop that centerist shit this instant. If you don't stop it, then a couple of guys who dodged the draft during the Vietnam war, Ted Nugent and Dick Cheney, will shoot you in the face.

And now here's a message from Sarah Palin

Oh gosh, you know I was just so mad at my "maverick" running mate Grandpa John for deciding to leave Michigan that it totally ruined my weekend!

Sure it looks like I'm happy as I'm standing next to Alaska stud #1, who may have just knocked me up with a baby that we might name Flywheel McSneezer Palin, but I'm not really. In fact I'm the opposite of happy, I'm steamed let me tell ya you betcha.

I'm ready to go to the great lake state and rustle me up some votes. I'll take Todd and Bristol and Levi and the new baby and Cooter and Lolly Pop and Sleestak and Satchel and Jim Bob and Mary Ellen and the rest of our kids and by golly we'll canvass from Germfask to Fowlerville to Alpena to Grosse Point and by gosh by golly don't cha know we'll have Jesus by all our sides and we'll turn that blue state red! I'll even get my Kenyan minister, you know the witch hunter guy, to got to Dee-troit to get all those black folks to vote for me and Grandpa John.

Hey I want to go but Grandpa doesn't want me to, I guess I'm the maverick now because I'm trying to do my own thing! Hey Grandpa, who's a maverick? Me. I'm a maverick. I'm not just a MILF or a PYW2P4 (Pentecostal You Want 2 Pray 4)!

But okey dokey then, if Grandpa John doesn't want me to spend time in Michigan I guess I'll just sit here and not talk to the press. I'll just sit here and hope Jesus comes back before that uppity elitist black man gets elected.

Self aggrandizement first, country second

So old man McCain wants the campaign to stop so he can go help bail the country out of the problems his deregulation hath wrought. How noble of him. How very noble.

Except it's not. It's a ploy and we all know it.

He wants us to say, "Oh gosh, what a selfless old man. How kind that he's putting politics behind and working to save our country." Well, if I was dropping like a rock in the polls in every swing state then I'd want a break too. If the bump I got when I made my cynical politically calculating choice for Vice President was was wearing off and people were noticing how inexperienced, unintelligent, and downright creepy she was, then I'd want some time off too. If my campaign bungled everything it touched then I'd want take a couple of days off as well. His selflessness looks now like timidity. If the shit hits the fan, and I apologize for using the word "fan" in front of you all, is he going to take a day or two off if by some miracle he gets elected? I can hear him now, "Oh no! The Russians are being mean to me and Congress won't pass my bloated budget and my the lobbyists who ran my campaign are mad as well, it's time to suspend my Presidency so I can have a nap. And for god's sake, don't let that idiot Palin touch anything while I'm sleeping. Hey, you know when I was a POW I didn't get much sleep. That's how the Viet Cong rolled."

Holy crap. Was this old fart the best thing the Republicans had to offer? The man who was admonished by his US Senate peers in the Keating 5 scandal? The man who has always been for deregulation except for when his chances of becoming President slip? The who won't let his running mate speak to the press or campaign with out being by her side? Holy fuck, this man is not ready to be our President, he's ready for a nursing home or a shuffle board court. And that's some straight talk you can take to the bank my friends, unless your bank has gone out of business in the latest financial meltdown that is.

Vote Obama/Biden and let's get our country back on track. Enough of the libertarian conservative Republican religious right wing bullshit. They've almost ruined us once more, it's time to put some intelligent grown ups in office again. We've had enough of petulant rich white guys who shoot from the hip and make decisions on the fly.

Unacceptable

There was an anti gay hate crime in my fair city last night and you can read about it here.

This kind of shit sickens me beyond belief. And before any of you decide to leave me a comment that you're not surprised that this type of thing happened in TN, please don't waste your time because I'll just delete it. Let's be clear, this type of assault happens all over this country and it happens because of the climate of fear and anti gay hate that is stoked by the radical religious right and the Republican party.

Some in the radical religious right claim that they hate the "sin" of homosexuality but they love the homosexual. This of course is bullshit. People on the far right politically and religiously hate anyone who is not exactly like them. They need someone to demonize and and to try and "save" and who better to hate and despise than the people most unlike them in the world. It used to be they hated Jews, then blacks, then women's libbers, then hippies, then Communists, and now it's the gays turn to feel their wrath and unholy unchristian hatred.

Don't get me wrong people, not all religious people hate or fear gays. My friend Rev. Shuck is a huge advocate for gay, lesbian, and transgendered people. He's all for marriage equality and having gay people serve in the ministry. And he's a Presbyterian minister. And he started the local PFLAG chapter in our area. So not all men or women of the cloth are bad or "scum of the earth." Some actually believe in equality for all in all phases of life.

If people in the radical religious right stopped hating gays like James Dobson and Pat Robertson do and they started loving people the Jesus Christ said to then a lot of hate crimes against gay people would stop. But I'm not about to hold my breath waiting for the sanctimonious religious blowhards in this country to actually live as their messiah commanded them to.
