I hear The Publicity Whore is about
to have her own television show on the Learning Channel.
Do you think she will learn anything? And when exactly did the
Learning Channel become the Learning Deficiency Channel?...
Before that jackass preacher down in Florida decided not to burn the
Quran, Ms. Palin sent out a little one of those
face tweeter things. She said she thought burning the Quran was as bad
as building that mosque in Manhattan.
Leave it to an idiot to denounce one form of religious intolerance by
promoting another form of religious intolerance.
When exactly will common sense return to America? Just how far can the
Republican Party---now called the Tea Party
---throw the bullshit before someone calls them on it? You just have to
pay attention to Sarah Palin for all of ten minutes
before you realize just how deep it gets. And now this Christine
O’Donnell has waded into the mess.
Margaret, it just makes me want to cry sometimes. But you know me. When
faced with idiots and jackasses, I don’t cry.
I bake a pie. So have some pie and a little coffee. I know you prefer
tea, dear, but skip the tea and have some coffee for me
until after November. I mean it . Really.
Palin blazed the trail that Bush created, the one where you can be a
complete idiot and still win in politics.
Palin, who turned out to be even more stupid than Bush - seriously - showed Christine
O'Donnell the way
and soon we're going to have nothing but total handjobs running the
country because the Democrats refuse
to list the facts of why voters should lean our way.
What if the GOP runs a Palin/O'Donnel ticket against
Obama in 2012?
I got this from Wayne:
A DAY IN
THE LIFE OF A REPUBLICAN
Joe gets
up at 6:00am to prepare his morning coffee.
He fills
his pot with good clean drinking water because some liberal
fought
for minimum water quality standards.
He
prepares his breakfast. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some liberal
fought
for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
Joe walks
outside and takes a deep breath. The air is clean because some
tree-hugging
liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.
Joe
begins his work day; he has a good job with excellent pay, medicals
benefits,
retirement,
paid holidays and vacation because some liberal union members fought
(and some
died in the fight) for these working standards.
Joe needs
to make a bank deposit. Joe's deposit is federally insured by the FDIC
because
some liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from unscrupulous bankers.
Joe is
paying on his student loan because some liberal decided that Joe and
the
government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money.
Joe gets
back in his car for the ride home. He turns on the
radio, the right-wing host
keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good (He doesn't tell Joe
that
Republicans fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys).
Joe
agrees, "We don't need those big government liberals ruining our lives;
after all,
I'm a
self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves,
just like me."
Some more facts the Dems refuse to list:
When Clinton raised taxes on the super-rich the economy went thru the
roof.
Clinton showed us how to make the economy take off
but Democrats can't remember back that far.
And think how easy it would be to say,
"We want to bring taxes back to
where Reagan had them in 1988." (Reagan raised taxes)
Then we dare the Republicans to bad-mouth Reagan - it's
so EASY!
But our Democrats can't think - they just stay silent and
let the GOP's lies and bullshit echo around.
How did I get stuck in the party of brain-dead surrender
monkeys?
