If Murphy wins, bye-bye MC Steele.

In that case, I’ll be praying for a Tedisco win.

The neck drooling knuckle draggers are gearing up for their tea bagging of the White House. Yep, they got the guns and will travel!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeYscnFpEyA

Last night I asked them what they were going to do once they overtook DC and the White House and I still haven’t gotten an answer. I asked, “Are you going to give it back to the rich who want it back?”. No answer. Then I asked, “What if Russia decides to use your aggression to take America over? Will you blame yourselves for losing our country?”. Still no answer.

As usual, the right wingers of America haven’t thought through their plans. This is why our nation was wrecked after 8 years of George Bush ruling the uneducated in our country. They haven’t smartened up either. Dumbasses all of them.

Did you see the headline at HuffPo? Steele: “I’m done reaching out to Obama”. Lol

Michael Steele thinks he’s as clever as Barack Obama is. HIGH-sterical! As I stated on my blog last night, at this point the only person who could do a better job at running the RNC would be Jonathan Krohn, you know, the 13 year old boy who gave a speech at CPAC last year. Yep! A 13 year old! Sounds about right considering what is leading the RNC and the republic party at the moment.

I think Klein is smacking down Pete Wehner while agreeing with Ricks.

Jonathan Krohn is the next R prez candidate. Ain’t it great! We’ve got 22 years of D prez before he’s eligible.

Yep. Quiet.

Funny you should bring up Krohn. It’s the third time in 3 days that he’s been mentioned in my hearing. Guess that the Rs are scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Your hearing? As in ‘ears’ or meetings? LOL Well, we all must be on the same psychic plane because yesterday the thought of a 13 year old leading the RNC/Republic party hit me like a ton of bricks! After watching a rerun of Steele’s interview where he said everything he does is ’strateeeegery’ by making himself appear as clever as Barack Obama, I thought a 13 year old could do better than Steele (and Limbaugh!) at this point. ;-)

Two of the 3 were online, but I thought I’d use hearing as a metaphor. The first was at dinner with friends on Saturday night, in exactly that context: he seems more articulate and more adult than any of the other nationally known Rs. (I wonder what Krohn thinks about Limbaugh?)

Letterman was great with o’Reilley last time. called him a “bonehead” and said somethinbg like: “You know more about this stuff than me, but I think that 60% (or was it 70%??) of what you say is crap.”

anybody see Real Time? was Hitchens on? was he shitfaced?

Mornin’, pups.

I’m just waiting until the smoke and dust clears from the battle of which group of rich white guys will be the new masters of the universe. Regular folks, meanwhile, are getting tired of all the bullshit and want practical solutions to the myriad problems facing us. Those ideas sure aren’t coming out of deecee.

Off to swim in the great capitalist cesspool. Gotta see if we can divert our ego driven boss from destroying the company with his ego driven ideas that have no basis in reality. He’s another of these geniuses who think they can borrow their way out of debt.

Be good to yourselves, and all other living things.

Namaste

The U.S. should be so lucky to be more like France, strong labor unions, universal health care, high speed rail, universal “day care” for all children, better food, no obesity, higher literacy rates, longer life spans, lower infant mortality ……………………… Yeah, Mitch McConnel has reason to be fearful.

First Maxium Bob is gone then the head Head of GM because he would not cut costs? Yeah right! he cut costs more than the bankers ever did I smell Rahm spin.
GM never came up with a plan to retool to make green machines and they dared Obama to fire them if they didn’t.
Cash for retooling not another GM bailout is next on the agenda the bankers better watch out this is very good news!:) Night folks!

Rather than being more like Western European nations Mitch McConnel prefers the Applachian model, poverty and ignorance for all, except for the elites.

If Sarkozy signed off on the death sentence of the French auto industry they would have a revolution on their hands. In the U.S. the unions, working classes, students, intellectuals are passive and mute. In the ongoing class war the elites have mounted their final mopping up operation.

GM is at the mercy of politicians who know nothing about cars, and I’m not liking this one bit. I’d rather see GM and Chrysler die than be told what to build.

You are right. It is Wehner who did the smackdown of Ricks, not Klein.
