Republican “strategist” KT McFarland:
The Republican Party is a big tent—it can have Rush Limbaugh, it can have Michael Steele, it can have all those people.
Steele and Limbaugh? Metaphorically, um, not much of a spectrum, but literally? If I can paraphrase Roy Scheider, “They’re gonna need a bigger tent.”
McFarland continues:
If the Republican Party can find its voice and criticize the runaway spending, which is basically like curing alcoholism by becoming heroin addicts. . .
. . . or like trying to cure an OxyContin habit by frequenting underage prostitutes. . . . (h/t twolf1)
You think I’m bad? Here’s Matt Taibbi on Representative Insurgent Michele Bachmann:
Thankyouverymuch. Enjoy the weekend, everyone!

That is all.
Have you quit yet?
We were tempted to leave it as is, but figured you could go with the flow.
Rove could really be Rush’s cousin, looking at that clip.
Sweaty, greasy, pasty floating fat men. Loverley.
The problem is that when elephants parade there’s always a lot of clean-up and Dems have to do it.
Two Big Pink Elephants waddling along.
And that’s the truth.
I’ll go with Flo, thanks.
You cant leave it there.
It’s So two big pink elephants walk into a bar…
(You’re turn. Anyone?)
Oh Oh a new caricature for rove rush but my brain will not divulge the name of the character: In the first Dune, the obese, pustulant guy in the floating chair. Any help?
TR:”Speak softly but carry a big stick.”
MB: “Speak loudly and try and write your name with a big stick in the dirt!”
and the tarbender says “Senator craig, senator vitter, haven’t seen you two crusin together before …
The “pants tent” party…of course when ones on oxycontin the “pants tent” is only going to big in your deluded brain.
Michael Steele and Rush Limbaugh. Hmmmm….. Philosphically, they run the gamut from A to B.
.
A flatulent, morbidly obese dope addict; an ignorant white-trash witch-hunter who lives high on the State dime; a blithering, kow-towing corrupt Oreo; a Kenneth The Page clone who snuck into the country in his government-subsidized embarrassingly (to him & his Party) Hindu Mom’s womb; a living symbol of everything most people hate about the Right, who divorced his wife while she was in a cancer ward; a hate-monger who is likely to be indicted any time now, who once claimed to be “Bush’s brain;” a sneering war-profiteer and torturer who shoots his friends in the face… Yeah, they can make that work. It’s quite an attractive package, actually. To any sociopath with an IQ of 80 or below.
Anybody got Diebold’s number? Or Rupert Murdoch’s?
