The Spectacle of it all

 

Analysis paralysis, yeah it’s a thing, has become my nemesis by teaming up with my natural state of lazy. Seriously, I’ve been in a near constant state of slack-jawed incredulity since the GOP debate. It should have been clear that bringing together that much batshit-stupid and wingnut-crazy, outside of the GOP convention, was irresponsible but Fox went all in.

  

The resulting oratorical shitfest nearly caused me to feel sorry for the Fox moderators, nearly. I was afraid that had it gone on much longer, the Donald would have walked over to Rand Paul and shived him right on camera. That Cicero’s ghost didn’t call in a bomb threat disproves the existence of an afterlife.

Ok, you get it, it was a spectacle, made more surreal by Ben Carson coming across as the most well spoken candidate on stage. Yeah, this guy …

In the ensuing 2½ weeks Trump is polling higher by the week and emptying basements across the land, really, you know them when you see them, fat from momma’s cooking, clutching their Bibles, shielding their eyes from the sun’s glare with a copy of the Constitution while breathing fresh air for the first time since Shrubs administration.

CNN/ORC Poll: Donald Trump now competitive in general election

The race has turned into a rhetorical arms race of arrogant stupidity. Featuring Trump questioning the constitutionality of the 14th amendment while blessing our political lexicon with the term “anchor baby”.

 

 

 

Anchor Babies

Unless you are a Native American and lived here before the English, Spanish, French and everyone else came and you were born here you are an anchor child. Give it up! You act like you are all superior!

What about the millions displaced and killed by your immigrant ancestors. What about the Native Americans, who owned no part of the country, and the Mexicans, who by the way, Texas and most of the Southwest belonged to.

So tired of the BS that is being spouted over the 14th Amendment. What about the destruction of a way of life that was taking place even before there was a Constitution! You people are morons and your insistence on beleaguering a moot point is ridiculous.

If you must talk, and, evidently that is a must for you, at least say something of value. Your core values are non-existent! To simplify this for people like Trump, you have none! So shut up or say something of importance. The only people listening to your idiotic blather are people like you, those who have no substance. People that want to blame their non existence on another race or culture.

And you are seriously lacking in the culture department. And, by the way, if you travel to, you know, experience other cultures, and are a boor in their country, stay home. No one wants to hear how much you hate someone, especially when you are a guest in their country.

I suggest you stay home, gas up your vehicle and drive up the road to commiserate with your other hater friends.

And, if I stepped on anyone’s toes here, then so be it. You’re probably one of them that this pertains to.

Enough is enough

People of America. We need to say enough is enough! Enough of the divisiveness that tears us apart. Enough of the greed that keeps the majority of us floundering.

Enough of those that are sanctimonious and religious that tear our souls apart for their own personal gain. Enough of the control by men in power that try to keep women in “their” place. Enough of the aggression brought about by those that have shirked their duty to keep our country safe by not serving it themselves but willingly send others to war.

Enough of those that thrive in their monetary abundance but hate those that have to beg for a crumb.

This is not the America our founders envisioned. This is not the America I envision.

When it comes time for you to make a decision a year from November remember the motto “Live free or die.” It’s unfortunate that is what it’s come down to, but that is where we stand. America stand tall for all!

Trump tapping Palin? Does he get points for that?

Republican presidential candidate Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) addresses a legislative luncheon held as part of the "Road to Majority" conference in WashingtonDonald Trump has said he would tap Sarah Palin for a job in his administration, should he be elected.

Palin is, of course, that think tank specialist, vociferous reader of the See Dick Run series (run all 17 of you, run) who has Superwoman vision and can see Russia from her bear skinning outhouse in Alaska.

Remember a couple of years ago when European leaders were disgusted to find out that their phones had been tapped by the NSA?

German ChancelAngela Merkellor Angela Merkel was particularly upset about it.

You might have thought she would have been happy that someone at NSA would have looked at her picture and said, “Yeah, I’d tap that.”

The GOP outreach to women, I don’t think it works that way

 

From Bob Cesla, of Salon,

Wing-nut conspiracy theorists have done it again: The truth about the Planned Parenthood hoax revealed

Well it’s another week and another ratfucking GOP attempt to divert attention from the fact that billionaire buffont buffoon Donald Trump continues to spank their collective asses and will show up at this week’s debate as the front runner by nearly a 2 to 1 margin over second-place Jeb The name that must not be spoken.

And as we now know they failed, because that’s what they truly excel at, ratfucking failure, again from Cesla,

“Over the past week, my office has conducted a thorough review and found that Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts’ health care centers are fully compliant with state and federal laws regarding the disposition of fetal tissue. Although donation of fetal tissue is permissible under state and federal law, PPLM does not have a tissue donation program. There is no evidence that PPLM is involved in any way in the buying or selling of tissue. As such, our review is complete.”

They deserve credit for one thing though. With this effort they finally crossed the line of shit with which the liberal media will no longer put up with, and had their asses not only called out, from Ana Kasparian, via the Raw Story,

“It’s disgusting. It’s beyond misleading, and the Republican Party again shows you how little they care about the middle class or working class,” she said. “All they care about is misleading people and pandering to the conservative base, which is full of f*cking idiots who are also very, very ill-informed.”

They also drew the ire of Senator Professor Elizabeth Warren (D- Awesome), who flew right past understated statesmanship.

“I come to the Senate floor today to ask my Republican colleagues a question,” she began. “Do you have any idea what year it is? Did you fall down, hit your head, and think you woke up in the 1950s? Or the 1890s? Should we call for a doctor?”

“Because I simply cannot believe that in the year 2015, the United States Senate would be spending its time trying to defund women’s healthcare centers. On second thought, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised. ”

“I’m sick and tired of it,” Warren added. “Women everywhere are sick and tired of it. The American people are sick and tired of it.”

“Women have lived through a world where backward-looking ideologues tried to interfere with the basic health decisions made by a woman and her doctor, and we are not going back. Not now, not ever.”

They were beautifully trolled as well, from the Republican Family Values Facebook page,

This fight isn’t over, simply because they are too stupid to quit, so look for more on this down the road. Until then, lets enjoy Thursday’s debate and remember, Orville Redenbacher makes 18 different kinds of popcorn.

Your snowball, good luck.
