'New GOP' Falls on it's Face
Rance Priebus doesn't know what to do
"On the one hand, we're screwed...
...and on the other hand we're screwed."
The Whore AP
This was to be a roadmap for a new, more inclusive GOP: attract minority voters, support
immigration reform and embrace "welcoming and inclusive" attitudes on gay rights.
But minutes after unveiling the proposal on Monday, the party chairman distanced himself
from it, and some conservatives and tea partyers balked.
It all illustrated the GOP's precarious balance as it works to unite battling factions.
"This is not my report," GOP chairman Reince Priebus told reporters, describing the contents
as simply recommendations by a five-person panel - even though he was the person who had
commissioned the self-audit after the party lost five of the last six popular votesl. He made the
comments immediately after declaring Monday "Day One" of the party's push to change perceptions
the audit uncovered - that the GOP is "narrow minded," ''out of touch" and "full of assholes."
Conservative and tea party criticism was immediate, a sign that the prescriptions may end up
widening existing divides rather than building new bridges in an evolving GOP.
ha ha
Don't you just love it?
They have to change - but they can't.
They have to stay on the road to Loserville or their crazy base will desert them.
The GOP's future needs to include abortion rights and gay rights - but they won't allow such
"abominations" so they have no connection to today's voters. The future is passing them by.
A shot of Chinaco to the death of the GOP dinosaurs.

Bill O's Ugly Catholic Divorce
Will he bribe them like Teddy K did?
Link
Fox liar Bill O’Reilly has been in a nasty custody battle for the better part of two years,
and the animosity between O’Reilly and his ex-wife Maureen McPhilmy appears to have
reached a boiling point. Gawker says O'Reilly is dragging the Catholic Church into the mess.
ha ha
Nothing like having gay child molesters helping with your ugly divorce.
O’Reilly has been going to extreme lengths to punish his ex-wife, including barring
McPhilmy from accepting communion at her Catholic church.
They didn't say how he got that power...
As a result of their separation, courts declared that O’Reilly and McPhilmy needed a
therapist to “act as a neutral mediator” says Gawker. But O’Reilly put the crooked therapist,
Lynne Kulakowski, on his payroll. His lawyer did not deny these charges in court.
Yes, we should drag alllll of this liar's personal problems into the spotlight.
Let's do to O'Reilly what they did to Clinton back in 1998.
...and is there some way we can get Nancy Grace involved?

Big Medicine Plays Us for Suckers
by Gene Lyons
Link
In Steven Brill’s Time magazine article, it’s the staggeringly expensive, grotesquely inefficient
and inhumane way Americans pay for medical care.
“In the U.S.,” Brill reminds us, “people spend almost 20 percent of the gross domestic product
on health care, compared with about half that in most developed countries. Yet in every measurable
way, the results our health care system produces are no better and often worse than the outcomes
in those countries.”
Obamacare or no Obamacare, ever-increasing prices show few signs of abating. For all the fear
and uncertainty the president’s health insurance reform will eliminate from people’s lives, it’s
almost incidental to the overall question of costs.
Moreover, had the law attempted to seriously restrain profiteering hospital chains,
pharmaceutical companies and medical equipment manufacturers that Brill depicts
as largely responsible for the current morass, there’s no way it could have passed.
If you have time, Gene's articles are always worth reading in their ertirety.

Woods posted pictures of himself and Lindsey Vonn, saying:
Something nice that's happened off the course was meeting Lindsey Vonn. Lindsey and I
have been friends for some time, but over the last few months we have become very close
and are now dating. We thank you for your support and for respecting our privacy
Yes, we all respect Mr. Showboat's privacy.
We all respect Mr. "Girl in every port" Woods.
What do you think Tiger told her? "That's the old me?"
I can't say for sure, but I'll bet once you've had a decade or two of your choice
of any woman at the party, leaving that lifestyle behind is a real Lynn Cheney.
Good luck with him, Lindsey

Dax and Cat Tricks
I realize everybody has an adorable pet who does cute things.
We have two cats, Rusty and Dax.
Mrs Bart suggested the name Dax when then told us he was a pterodactyl.
No, wait, they said he was a polydactyl
That means he's a Rembrandt cat with six thumbs and seven toes.
We adopted him as a special needs kitty - you see, ...he'd lived ...a life in kitty porn.
Yes, it's true, we saw the evidence ourselves...
It didn't matter, we love him no matter what.
But now he has a new trick and that's what I'm writing about.
I've only known five cats well, but Dax has the most incredible timing.
When we approach the refrigerator and open the door, there he is - IN the refrigerator.
He times his jump perfectly and it seems as tho he's been in the frig all day.
Finding your cat inside the refrigerator can be startling after a cocktail or two.

True, Bush/Cheney couldn't steal billions in peacetime
so they phoneyed up that war that killed 5,000 soldiers.

Bart,
What no one seems to be mentioning is that we have officially declared war on Al Qaida,
and that during times of war the President has powers beyond normal times. The only
difference here is that we have declared war on an enemy that is not a nation, but an
international group working from many different locations; and there are known American
Citizens who are part of this group. Before we joined WWII there were many German
Americans who wanted us to support the Nazis instead of the British! Link
Charles Lindbergh was one of them.
If people do not want the President to be able to kill ‘randomly’ around the world – trying his
best to not risk American troops and to minimize collateral damage, just declare the war over.
People talk about this like during any time frame can the President execute so and so…
But we are officially at war, and the rules differ during times of war.
During WWII, once we joined that war, people suspected of helping the enemy could be detained,
or executed, without question. Yes what was done to the Japanese in California was wrong, and
after the war was over there was an investigation and people were punished, but if while in Germany
or France some American was caught diverting munitions or plans to the enemy, they could be killed
without reprimand.
Rand Paul wasted time getting the answer – no, an American not in combat on American soil
would not be executed… But no one seems to me to be connecting the fact that we are at war
to the scenarios of when it is OK to kill Al Qaida members. I think the best solution is to end the
war on terror, which was started under Bush Jr., and let the domestic police force be in charge of
policing attempted acts of terrorism locally, with coordination through the FBI and/or the CIA.
They have already blocked many terrorist’s plots both before and after 9/11.
But (I wish people would) stop trying to claim the President does not
have the authority granted to all Presidents during times of war.
Thanks,
Israel
Israel, it's hard to take your opinions seriously
because you failed to call me Hitler or Cheney :)
