The Hillbilly Heroin Chronicles: Limpy Has a Brain Shart . . .

Oh dear - looks like Rusty Limpballs is on an Oxycontin binge again:

RUSH LIMBAUGH CLAIMS AL-QAEDA "GAVE UP OSAMA BIN LADEN" TO HELP OBAMA GET REELECTED!





And you still wonder why I mock this dickless imbecile so mercilessly?

A Frighteningly Clueless and Out of Touch "Man of the People" . . .



In an interview with ABC's George Snuffleopagus, Willard makes a stunning and revealing statement:


Democrats say Romney’s plan would cause a $2000 tax hike on the middle class - something Romney disputes and points to a number of studies that say his plan to cut taxes will not increase the deficit, including one by Harvard professor Martin Feldstein.
Feldstein says Romney’s math will work, but he would have to eliminate the home mortgage, charitable, state and local tax deductions for incomes greater than $100,000.
When I pressed Romney on that point, he conceded that he actually hadn’t read the Feldstein report that he and Paul Ryan cite on the campaign trail.
“I haven’t seen his precise study,” he said.
“I said that there are five different studies that point out that we can get to a balanced budget without raising taxes on middle income people.  Let me tell you, George, the fundamentals of my tax policy are these.  Number one, reduce tax burdens on middle-income people.  So no one can say my plan is going to raise taxes on middle-income people, because principle number one is keep the burden down on middle-income taxpayers,” he said.
Romney defined middle income as $200,000 to $250,000 a year.

WTF????  $200,000 to $250,000 a year is "middle income."  Really?  FUCKING REALLY?????

The median household income in America is right around $50k +/- a few $k.  That's less money than Willard and Ann wrote off on their taxes last year for food and shelter of their Olympic prancing horse for fuck sake.

So basically what Willard is telling me is that the 30 years which I have labored working my way up the economic ladder, where for the first time last year (after bonus), I grossed just barely three figures in pay, were all for naught?  You mean to tell me Willard that I never really made it to the middle class by your standards??  I'm still a member of the working poor??   Well fuck me in the ass with a red white and blue, studded dildo!

Just shoot me now.

Now do you understand where Willard is coming from when he makes claims of caring for a strong "middle class"  There it is in his own words -- he is referring quite clearly to folks who are "struggling" on $200k - $250k a year incomes.

To my conservative pals -- how much more evidence do you need to prove that Willard, quite frankly, couldn't give a flying fuck about your $25k - $75k a year earning ass?  Simply put - you don't even show up as a ghostly blip on his gives-a-shit radar screen.  And if he doesn't give a shit about your existence, what makes you think his economic policies are going to, in any way shape or form, benefit you and your family's asses??  Wake up and smell the K-Y Jelly you dipshits - cuz that patriotic Bain Capital endorsed dildo is aimed straight at your unwitting sphincters and if they get their way, you're in for an ass reaming of the likes that the mis-perceived transgressions the Kenyan Muslim infiltrator has done unto you will be a distant, fond memory by the time they are finished having their way with you.

I swear, I try to talk sense to the conservatives I know.  But their hatred for the darkie in the White People's House is so  deeply entrenched in their misguided souls that truth, reason and reality are ineffective weapons against their communal force field of denial.

So - to my conservative family and friends - all I can do is provide you with the truth.  If you choose to ignore it and embrace the lies of Romney, Ryan, the Neo-cons and the TeaTards, don't come fucking crying to me if they win and then proceed to run this country back in to the same trickle-down economics ditch (ergo a Depression making the Depression of the 1920's look like Happy Days)  that Bush and the Republicans did to begin with -- because the only response you will get from me is -- talk to the hand, 'cause the face don't wanna hear it now more.

Ohhhhhhh Nooooooooes!!!



Oh dear.  Looks like there may be a shortage of stupid fucking right wing douchebags in Arizona at this time:


 
Not even the promise of crooner Pat Boone singing oldies from a spinning stage could save what was intended to be the premier birther event of the year later this month in Arizona.
Organizers of the gala, which would have featured Boone alongside Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio and some of the nation’s other prominent conspiracy theorists, broke the news online Friday that it was canceled “due to inadequate ticket sales.”

http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/09/birtherpalooza_canceled.php


No doubt they'll blame the low ticket sales on Donald Trump and Ted Nugent for being unavailable for the evening's entertainment.

What a bunch of comical losers.  ROFL.

She Can See Obama's Cock From Her Front Porch . . .



Sounds like the Hockey Mom from Wasilla is a bit envious that Obama isn't using his package in ways she, in all likelihood, wet dreams about.

I thank The Flying Spaghetti Monster every day that a majority of Americans had the decency and the sense enough to not allow Sarah the imbecile a chance at furthering her cartoonish political career:


There seems to have been a small amount of tsuris in the Middle East yesterday, as a large lot of Libyans decided to kill some Americans. This makes most people show proper somberness and gravity. But not Sarah Palin! She is busy being very ladylike, by talking about the president’s penis. Let us go to her Facebook page, where all the world’s greatest statesmen gather to orate their profundities, and marvel at her good sense and wisdom!
Blah blah blah, Palin Palin Palin:
"It’s about time our president stood up for America and condemned these Islamic extremists. I realize there must be a lot on his mind these days – what with our economy’s abysmal jobless numbers and Moody’s new warning about yet another downgrade to our nation’s credit rating due to the current administration’s failure to come up with a credible deficit reduction plan. And, of course, he has a busy schedule – with all those rounds of golf, softball interviews with the “Pimp with the Limp,” and fundraising dinners with his corporate cronies. But our nation’s security should be of utmost importance to our Commander-in-chief. America can’t afford any more “leading from behind” in such a dangerous world. We already know that President Obama likes to “speak softly” to our enemies. If he doesn’t have a “big stick” to carry, maybe it’s time for him to grow one."

http://wonkette.com/483965/sarah-palin-wishes-barack-obama-had-a-bigger-penis#more-483965


She certainly is one nasty and ignorant little twit.  She should just stick to her stupid fucking "reality" television appearances because every time she opens her pie-hole on the subject of politics, the odor emanating from her yap stanks up the place.

And that's about all the time worth wasting on that idiot.

The Wingnut Mighty Media Wurlitzer In Action . . .

This is a classic example of what the right does when it knows it is fairly losing in the marketplace of ideas and their chosen candidate is failing to persuade the electorate with their vision and policies.  They seize on an event like the senseless murder of the U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens yesterday (on the anniversary of 9/11 no less) by some extremists and then let the lying and accusations fly.  They completely fabricate a narrative (Obama sympathizes with Muslims), throw it into the wingnut blogosphere, and then let the dishonest clowns on Fox "News" echo it and next thing you know there is controversy where there should be none.

http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert/hannity-guest-obenshain-rants-obama-

And, unfortunately, the mainstream press is almost always too willing to be false equivalency backseaters in that wingnut, media echo chamber.

Here's proof.  Watch how Fox's Sean Hannity, one of the most dishonest media people ever to have a forum on national television, coaches and allows his crazed-eyed, foaming at the mouth guest state factual inaccuracies, while a flustered Juan Williams gives his usual (and phony) half-hearted defense:






It's getting to the point where I get physically ill watching this shit now.  These people have that effect on me. They are loathsome creatures who, I am convinced, share a strand of DNA that was plucked from the murkiest, most putrid and decaying muck of the human genome.

This is why I speak out though.  Because if someone doesn't stand up to these monsters, they will fuck this country over so badly, that by the time they are done doing their damage, there will be no future America.  There will be nothing but a rogue, third world nation in place of the world's greatest and fairest representative democracy.

Willard's Lips Move - Lies Spew Forth . . . In Other Words - Business As Usual in Romneyville



Romney is a pathological liar.  And it appears he has surrounded himself with like-minded lying lunatics like John Bolton:


Mitt Romney reiterated on Wednesday his condemnation of President Obama’s response to an attack on a diplomatic compound in Libya that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens, accusing Obama of apologizing to Islamic miltants.
It was the second time in just over 12 hours that Romney had suggested the White House sided with rioters and militants. Romney’s initial statement came late Tuesday, after news had broke that an American officer had been killed in Libya, but before the State Department had confirmed Stevens was among the dead. It inaccurately suggested that the U.S. embassy in Cairo, which also came under attack, had issued a statement condemning an anti-Muslim film online that had sparked the riots as its “first response” to the violence. In fact, the embassy and multiple press reports assert that the statement came before the protests and was intended to head off a confrontation.

http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/09/romney-libya-attack-benghazi.php?ref=fpa


Willard is tanking in the polls, so it is to be expected that he would start playing dirty politics.  But this kind of an accusation, under these circumstances, is just plain un-American and perverse.

When it became apparent that Willard was going to be the GOP nominee, I didn't have much an opinion of his character one way or the other.  Now however, I am beginning to think that this man is as dishonest as the day is long and should not be trusted with American power.

And the Oscar for worst performance portraying a disaffected Obama supporter goes to . . . . .

The GOP isn't even making a halfhearted effort to disguise their lies anymore:

Republicans debuted a new ad Thursday in which a frustrated former Obama supporter expresses her disappointment with the president. The only problem: The woman in the video is actually an RNC staffer.
The new ad features Republican National Committee Director of Hispanic Outreach Bettina Inclan, who in the ad purports to be an average woman voter who supported Obama in 2008. She describes her disillusionment with the president in the ad as a romantic relationship gone awry.
Inclan began her current RNC post in January 2012, and has worked in Republican politics since well before Obama’s 2008 election. She did Hispanic outreach for Rick Scott’s 2010 Florida gubernatorial race worked on Capitol Hill for Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart (R-FL), Rep. Thaddeus McCotter (R-MI) and as national executive director of the Republican National Hispanic Assembly.
http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/09/rnc-staffer-plays-obama-supporter-in-gop-ad.php?ref=fpa






They couldn't find an authentic "frustrated former Obama supporter" so they simply hired one of their party hack staffers to make-believe portray one.

It fits the, by now well known, pattern though.  The GOP has decided that the American people are not deserving of honesty and rational, adult discourse.  They are so desperate (or perhaps simply morally and intellectually bankrupt) at this point, that lying and deception, of the type seen in this ad, have become second nature to them.  It is an open acknowledgement that they are incapable of competing in the marketplace of ideas and vision and therefore they find it necessary to utilize deception and character smears (just as they attempted in 2008) to appeal to the dumbest and the most gullible Americans.

Let's hope they fail in their dishonest endeavor once again.

The Belief in a Cruel God Makes a Cruel People -- Ladies and Gentlement I Give You Exhibit 'A'...



OMFG!  What in the fucking world is wrong with these people???????

Rep. Rick Berg (R-ND), the candidate for Senate from North Dakota, once voted for a bill that would have made any woman who obtained an abortion guilty of a homicide crime — even if it were in the case of rape or incest. Indeed, the bill Berg supported does not even contain an explicit exception if an abortion is necessary to save the woman’s life.
In 2007, Berg was among the small number of state representatives in the North Dakota House whosupported the measure. It also would have imposed penalties on doctors and anyone else who “aids, abets, facilitates, solicits, or incites” a person into an abortion:
A new section to chapter 12.1-16 of the North Dakota Century Code is created and enacted as follows:
Intentional termination of human life – Preborn children. A person is guilty of a class AA felony if the person intentionally destroys or terminates the life of a preborn child. A person that knowingly administers to, prescribes for, procures for, or sells to any pregnant individual any medicine, drug, device, or other substance with the specific intent of causing or abetting the termination of a preborn child is guilty of a class AA felony. A person that intentionally or knowingly aids, abets, facilitates, solicits, or incites a person to intentionally destroy or terminate the life of a preborn child is guilt of a class C felony. For purposes of this section, “preborn child” includes a human being from the moment of fertilization until the moment of birth.
http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2012/09/04/790351/gop-senate-candidate-supported-life-sentences-for-rape-victims-who-obtain-abortions/


So basically here is an entirely plausible scenario where this legislation could play out and what it's end result could/would be:

John and Mary Citizen's (let's call her Jane) 18 year old daughter goes off to college.  One night at a frat house party, Jane Citizen has a wee bit too much to drink and goes and passes out in a bedroom.  An unknown, drunken frat boy follows her in to the room and rapes her while she's passed out.  Jane Citizen wakes up, realizes what has happened to her and is so embarrassed and upset that she keeps the incident to herself - telling no one.  A short time later, Jane decides to do a pregnancy test on herself and realizes that she is indeed pregnant and is absolutely certain it was from the person who raped her.  Jane Citizen is now desperate.  She contacts her parents, tells them the story.  They contact and report the incident to the police, but the damage is done.  After a long, heartfelt talk with her parents and personal physician, and perhaps even clergy, Jane, with the support of her family decides to get an abortion.  Jane's father and mother take her to a clinic and have the procedure performed.

Under Rep. Berg's legislation, Jane citizen is at that point subject to arrest and lifelong incarceration for not wanting to bring her rapist's zygote to full term.  In addition, her parents and her physician are subject to the same arrest and incarceration for "knowingly aiding, abetting, facilitating, soliciting or inciting (advising)" Jane to seek the abortion procedure - as would be the abortion provider and clinic workers themselves.

Now - consider - in the U.S. - there are approximately 35,000 cases of rape each year (reported cases) that result in the woman, or in some cases even minor female, becoming pregnant from the rape.

Are these fucking right wing nutcases saying that they are willing to begin arresting and tossing rape VICTIMS, plus anyone who counsels them (physician, rape counselor, etc.) or advises (parents, friends, family members) in prison for life for assisting that female VICTIM in procuring a medical procedure that the United States Supreme Court has deemed legal?

Yes - that is exactly what they are saying they want to do.  Anyone else see what's wrong with this picture??

I have decided to cease referring to these teabagger Republicans like Nick Berg as "right wingers."  They are much more than that.  They are extremists and radical authoritarians.  They're claims of love for the Constitution are as hollow as their skulls.  They represent an imminent threat to freedom and democracy in this country and they need to be kept as far away from the levers of government power as is humanly possible.

Thankfully, in 2007, saner minds prevailed and that pernicious bill, which now would be Senator Nick Berg voted for, was defeated.  But the bottom line is that this man has no business being in any position of power, what with ample evidence to show of just how ruthlessly he would wield that power.  Knowing the conservative bent of North Dakota, I don't hold out much hope that this goose-stepper will be defeated, but I do believe the sane and reasonable people of the state should make it their top priority to ensure this sonofabitch never sets foot as a legislator in the Halls of Congress.

"Obama Hates America!!" . . Why? . . "Ummm - Because! Neener-Neener!" . . .


Soledad O'Brien and the panelists on Tuesday's "Starting Point" got into a testy exchange with Tea Party activist Amy Kremer over her allegation that President Obama doesn't "love America the way we do."





There you have it folks!  The Chairperson of the Tea Party Express in all of her Ernest T. Bass glory.

This woman is so fucking dumb she is entirely incapable of even articulating the meaning and context of her own statements as to why it is that she believes Obama hates America.  Derp, Derp,....

I know this is going to sound harsh, but quite honestly, it's the most sensible explanation I can produce as to why these lizard brains think the way they do ..... Amy Kremer is the culmination of generations of in-breeding, closed minded brain washing and paranoid tribalism combined with fundamentalist religious based home-schooling.  Add in a healthy dose of reality denial and the final product is hateful ignorance in it's purest form.  As much as I am certain that there does exist some common ground between my dirty hippie views and the views of the Teabaggers, their overt racism and penchant for lying and peddling manufactured conspiracies just simply prevents me from empathizing with them in any way, shape or manner at this point.  I have resignedly given up any hope for them.

Wherein The Gadfly Beseeches The Noodly Appendage . . .

I honestly wake up every day and pray to The Flying Spaghetti Monster thusly:

"Oh Magnificent, expertly cooked Noodly Appendage - please, please, please, let the so-called actual "journalists" in this country learn something from these clownish men, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, as to how their craft should be used to inform and educate and provide the truth to the American people."

I swear - I pray it every goddamn day.

And here's why:





When the history of comedy genius is some day documented for posterity, there are undoubtedly going to be several chapters dedicated solely to the works of Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
