Bitch, Boner "hostile" to Conservatives
The GOP Civil War is Hotter than Ever

Link

First, Mitch the Bitch and the Senate Conservatives Fund got upset with each other.
Now it's Da Boner's turn to spark the group's rage.

In an e-mail to supporters, the organization portrays Boehner and McConnell as public enemy No. 1.
The Senate Conservatives Fund urges supporters to back their five 2014 candidates, such as Matt Bevin
who is challenging McConnell in a GOP primary.

"These Republican leaders are attacking conservatives because they don't like it when the grassroots hold
them accountable," reads the e-mail from Matt Hoskins, the group's executive director. "These Republicans
have been in Washington too long and they're no longer willing to fight for our principles. They're hostile to
the people who elected them."

The subject line on the e-mail, which doubles as a fundraising pitch: "Punched in the Nose."
The line is taken from McConnell's recent comments to the Washington Examiner, in which he
referred to the group as "schoolyard bullies" and said he'd like to give them a punch in the nose.

Too bad Ashley Judd decided against a race against The Bitch.
He could easily lose his primary to the 'bagger and Judd's chances might've been good.

Zippy Painting now at $99K $110K
Hitler was a painter, too - same for Der Monkey

"Liberty and justice for all white people."

Link

After the most recent charges against George Zimmerman were dropped, he announced
he was broke and put a "George Zimmerman original painting" for sale on eBay.

As of this morning, the highest bid for this piece of dreadful history is up to $99, 996.
Looking at the bid history, many of the highest bidders appear to be first-time bidders or
newly created accounts. Let's hope that is a sign these are fake bids and nobody would
actually be foolish enough to pay $100,000 for a painting by a murderer who got off.

I can see Republicans and Teabaggers wanting to give their racist hero more money.

After all, he did what a lot of them would like to do - he shot and killed an unarmed n____r.

Another Obamacare Success Story
Democrats too stupid to list the facts

Link

Sue Spanke of Missoula, Mont., was pissed when she learned her health insurance had been canceled.

"I got so mad that I went to my phone and started calling all the political people and giving them what for,"
Spanke told The Billings Gazette. That was before she learned she was eligible for a policy at a much lower cost.

After angrily calling her state auditor's office, Spanke found she was eligible for a federal subsidy.
Her new insurance will cover her for a mere $40 a month with a deductible of $500.
She had been paying $350 a month for a policy with a $5,000 deductible.

"I went from a horrible policy that didn't cover anything, that was breaking me,
to the best policy at the best price I've had since I was in my 20s," she said.

Why can't Democrats think?

If they spread these stories around, the GOP would die sooner.

Subject: Your fascist mind set

<snippage> Neil is very wordy.

Worldwide, terrorists have killed an average of 20 Americans a year since 9-11.

And yet, you're fine with ripping up the Constitution and spending Billion$ on mass surveillance
THAT DOESN'T WORK, but assures that rogue agencies can amass personal, political and
economic power over the entire population of the USA.

If you could stop being hysterical for a moment, maybe we could have a conversation?
I'm not for "ripping up the Constitution," as your name-calling, wild-ass claims.

Do you think the Founding Fathers foresaw nukes and dirty bombs and jets flying into buildings?
Are you not willing to concede that MAYBE the Constitution could use an update now and then?

"because if al Qaeda hits us again"

You intentionally avoided my point - was that because it interfered with your bogus charges?

IF Obama listens to the anti-self-defense crowd and stops spying
on America's enemies, and we get hit again, it'll be twenty years
before voters trust Democrats with the White House.

Could you address that point instead of setting your hair on fire?
IF you can't address that point, maybe your should lower the volume of your shrieking.
Maybe you're ready for 20 years of Ted Cruz-type presidents, but I'm not.

Well, if 9-11 WTC was even a slightly partial inside job, <more snippage> then all the
NSA-CIA-FBI spying WILL NOT WORK (again) so your argument totally loses validity.

You're not making sense.
We shouldn't spy on our enemies because of "if?"

Your fascist mind set is why you are losing readers, and donations, but that's justice.

I'm so old, I remember when you and I were friends.

I only read your blog to see the cartoons you've stolen from other sources.

ha ha

Sorry I'm not very talented when it comes to creating graphics.
I guess if I were a "real" Democrat I'd draw my own toons?

But the Dems vs Rethugs game is old and irrelevant. Time for real change, and Edward Snowden
has gotten the ball rolling. You can stand with Obama the War Criminal, the lying Clintons, Diane
Feinstein, Cheney and John Bolton, but you gain nothing unless you can get your hands on the
money those corrupt bastards are making with their scams.

Gee, if only we could make money disappear - then the world would be perfect.
How long since you've seen your psychiatrist, Neil?

You've turned into Maureen Dowd, or Ted Rall. (Not a compliment)
You hate America's top Democrats because YOU are the only one who's pure.
You hate me because my ideas don't run parellel to yours and that makes you angry.
You hate America's top Republicans - wait, that's an assumption on my part.

Far as I can tell you HATE everyone but Edward Snowden, who's wanted for treason.
Maybe the problem is YOU, Neil.

So Happy Birthday to Mrs. Bartcop and Merry Xmas to the both of you, and the kitties.
Neil in Mass

Nail, that's more evidence that you're psychotic.

Subject: Christianity

Bart,
Andrew Sullivan’s quote about Christianity begs the question, “Who’s Christianity?”
Sully’s god seems to think a lot like Sully, (reasonable, humane) and the Teacracker's
god is just like them; A big majestic white dude, like Reagan.

We are not motivated by the gods or ideologies, we are justified by them.
What we do is who we are, not what we say Jebus or the “Market” told us to do.
If you are an asshole, you can find sacred, holy, writings to justify being an asshole
and you will cling desperately to your belief, because it is self-serving.

Good people don’t need fairy tales to justify acting on reason and some human empathy.
You can feed your family or help your country without being told you did it because
Jehovah was gonna kick your ass otherwise. And Sully was fine with Reagan, who pretty
much believed what the baggers believe. He was just more discreet about it.

Wouldn’t it be cool if we all just had to own what we did and said instead of blaming it
on “beliefs”? Wouldn’t it be cool if the religious bigots on TV had to say; “I don’t know
about Jesus or Allah, but queers and brown people scare me, and I want to maintain my
social privilege” Or even some Wall St. con artist, “I know I made my fortune through luck,
insider trading, influence peddling, cronyism and fraud, but it just proves I’m smarter than
you and deserve all the money I can grift”.

We would live in a different world.

Can Colorado Handle the Demand?
Will they get a flood of tourists in January?

Link

Recreational marijuana sales begin two weeks from Wednesday in Colorado.
Complicated regulations mean a mere 12 stores may be licensed by opening day.

So will day-one supply meet demand?

CBS News' Barry Petersen asked Seeb, "The predictions are that on January 1 there
could be lines around the block of people wanting to buy pot. What do you think?"

Seeb said, "I think that it's a very good possibility, that it's the first time in the history of
the United States that somebody can walk into a facility, over the age of 21, and put down
some money and get some cannabis in exchange for it."

I can't see the locals standing in long lines.
If you're a pot-user in Denver, you have pot in your house right now.

Most people I know who live in med-pot states have never been to their pot stores.
If the store sells it for $350 and your friend has it for $250,
why give the state that extra hundred dollars?

I'm guessing most people who visit a Colorado pot store in January will be
tourists from backwards, hell-hole states who've never seen legal pot before.

The Curse Bites Eldrick
We call it "The Hex," same thing

Link

In the wake of his latest weekend choke job -- a piss-poor performance in Sunday's
final round of the British Open -- I'm done overthinking Tiger Woods.

This is Karma. Bad Karma. This is "The Curse of the Bimbino."

Tiger won't get 86 years to overcome it. Tiger ain't getting 18. Hell, he may not get 15.
It might be as powerful as The Curse of the Bambino, the plague that overtook the
Boston Red Sox after they sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees.

At 37 and in the aftermath of Thanksgiving 2009, Eldrick is more Bill Buckner than Mariano Rivera.
Don't forget Buckner was a fine player. I'm not insulting Eldrick comparing him to Buckner, the goat
of the 1986 World Series. I'm saying Eldrick is human and susceptible to choking in big moments.
Before The Curse that was not the case.

Poor Eldrick.

Subject: Obama and Syria

Bart, you wrote:

"But I stand with President Obama and Joe Biden and the Clintons and most everyone else
who has any authority because if al Qaeda hits us again, they are the people who'll get the blame."

So please tell me,, why have we been funding and arming al Qaeda in Syria?
Mike W

I'd say for the same reason - Obama will get the blame is he doesn't. Obama screwed up Syria in 2011.
Back then, the pre-al Qaeda rebels had Assad on the run but Obama chose to dither, wringing his hands and
hoping the problem would go away and solve itself - it didn't.

Whatever happens in Syria, it's on him.

Whore CNN - Unbelievable

I'm watching this gaggle of cheap street whores (just as background while I work)
and they ran a story about Kate Middleton's phone being hacked by the British whore press.

Then they read transcripts of several private conversations Kate had with Prince Hubby.
Can you belive that?

If that's a gross violation of their privacy, (it is) why are you broadcasting it?

It reminded me of the Gilbert Godfried tsunami jokes back in 2011.

After labeling the jokes "tasteless" and "inappropriate" the bastards read each joke - over and over.

'Homeland' Finale

The last two episodes of Homeland were some of the most intense TV I've ever seem.

In the second-last episode, when Brody hit the guy with the ashtray?
I was so shocked - I jumped up out of my chair!
I've been watching TV a long time - that's never happened before.

And the finale?
Have you ever seen anything like that before?
Wasn't that the most spectacular "murder" in TV history?

They killed "Tony Soprano" and it's only Season 3!

Gotta hand it to Showtime - that took balls.
I don't see other TV shows taking those kinds of risks.

I'm sorry, but these order cannot be retroactively credited to the Associate.

In order to ensure that Bart receives credit for a future order you will need to start your shopping session from that site.
As you stated in your e-mail that you already had items in your shopping cart when you went and clicked on the Associate

cart within the 24 hours following your entry from the sponsoring website will be credited to that site if it is purchased
within 90 days. Credit will not be given for other items already in your cart from a previous visit.

I hope this information helps.

Duck Dynasty Gay Basher Suspended
It seems gay-bashing now comes with a price

Link

On Wednesday, A&E cable network, which airs "Duck Dynasty," suspended Phil Robertson
indefinitely from filming, issuing the following statement: "We are extremely disappointed to
have read Phil Robertson’s comments in GQ, which are based on his own personal beliefs and
are not reflected in the series 'Duck Dynasty.' His personal views in no way reflect those of
A+E Networks, who have always been strong supporters and champions of the LGBT community.
The network has placed Phil under hiatus from filming indefinitely."

That was well-handled in a timely manner.

GLAAD issued the following statement in response to A&E's decision, attributed to GLAAD
spokesperson Wilson Cruz: "What’s clear is that such hateful anti-gay comments are unacceptable
to fans, viewers, and networks alike. By taking quick action and removing Robertson from future
filming, A&E has sent a strong message that discrimination is neither a Christian nor an American value."

That was well-handled, too.
In times past, like maybe two years ago, those comments might've percolated for a week or two
with the possiblty of no action would be taken - but those days are over and they're not coming back.

Note to Phil Robertson: Don't ask Paula Deen for help.

To save his career, Phil needs to be honest and say something like,
"I'm an old goat with old ideas and I wasn't using my head when I said those things.
Looking back, I can see how my comments came off as nasty and hurtful and I wish
I had used different words to express my old-fashioned opinion."

That way he's honest, he doesn't have to backtrack and forgiveness is possible.
If he says, "I was tired, I misspoke, I really like gays" we'll know he's lying.

I understand that many old people can't quite get to accepting homosexuality.
It's OK to have some old-fashioned ideas - just don't be a hateful dick about it.

Update
He took the coward's way out.

"I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me.
We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would
all be better off if we loved God and loved each other.” Link

He DID get advice from Paula Deen.

Lying isn't the way out of this, Phil.

Had you been honest, America might've forgiven you. Hiding behind "I love all humanity"
after equating gays with dog sex makes you another Santorum (not a compliment.) and people
DON'T want haters like you and Santorum in their homes - so bye, bye, TV career.

They were high quality cars, with teak woodwork, custom copper-plated wire wheels and bright work.
