Gullyvornia - Tarnish on the Golden State. . .

Gee -- lemme' think now --- who was it that thought it was just a dandy idea to recall a popularly elected California governor because Enron was raping the state and manipulating the energy grid and instead install a beefcake, lousy B-movie action hero with a German accent in his place?

Oh yeah --- stupid fucking Republicans --- that's who.

The Grayson Effect . . .

Not much more to say. This pretty much covers it.

**UPDATE** - - Alan Grayson

The more I learn about this rottweiler Dem Rep. from Florida Alan Grayson, the more I find myself muttering aloud --- "where the fuck have you been you beautiful baby?!"

This guy has some balls. Read this Vanity Fair article about him from a couple of years ago, before he ran for Congress -- this Grayson cat is the real deal. A fearless, take-no-prisoners, in your face kinda guy. And he does not suffer fools (Republicans), assholes (Republicans), or corrupt crooks (Republicans) very lightly.

My only hope is that he doesn't have any skeletons in his closet. Because now that he has challenged the Repugs to a two-fisted duel, he can most certainly expect them to start skulking and digging around for any dirt on him, because that's what they are best at - cowards that they are. And rest assured, even if he's squeaky clean, count on them to just make some shit up about him. But based on what I've seen of Grayson this past week and what I've read about his background, the Repukes better be careful -- lest they end up with a simultaneous knuckle sandwich and full throttle kick to their groins.

Anyhow, fascinating article about he went after corrupt Iraq war private contractors who were knowingly putting our soldiers lives at risk while simultaneously sucking up huge sums of taxpayer money - that's hero material in my book. That bravery alone automatically makes him someone worthy of respect and admiration. Let's hope he keeps up the pressure on the conservatards over the Health Care reform issue.


**UPDATE**: One of my favorite bloggers, The Rude Pundit, has a side-splitting, hilarious observation on Alan Grayson's sudden rise to stardom. I about peed my pants laughing so hard. Gonna have to add him to my blog roll. Lol.

Friday M-Vloggin' - - with Supertramp

I say now watch what you say,
Or they'll be calling you a radical,
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal,
Oh won't you sign up your name,
We'd like to feel you're acceptable,
Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable

Gotta admit -- those are some of the best anti-anti establishment (rightwing zombie) lyrics ever written. The song speaks for itself.

Right wingers cheer Chicago Olympic bid loss . . .

Well -- I guess we truly know who the real America haters are now don't we.

http://thinkprogress.org/2009/10/02/weekly-standard-chicago/

Once again, the hypocrisy is mind-numbing -- especially when one recalls that these are the same assholes who tried to paint Barack Obama as an unpatriotic anti-American because he didn't walk around with a Made in China, U.S. flag pin on his lapel.

Wonder if Fox News will throw a tea party in celebration?

Health Care made simple -- GOP style . . .

There you have it folks.

Georgia Republican Congressman Paul Broun details the Republican Health Care Plan in just 5 easy words -- GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM!

If you don't have health insurance or cannot afford your premiums or are underinsured -- 5 easy words -- GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM!

Sounds almost as good as that plan they had for deregulating the banking and finance industries. Nearly as good as that plan they had for Invading Iraq. And almost as magnificent as the plans they had for preparing for Hurricane Katrina and dealing with it's aftermath.

Yep -- very serious people those Republicans. Can't wait for their 2012 Presidential ticket of Palin/Gingrich.

Perennial losers . . . how spinelessness is killing the Democratic party

Jon Stewart is the best -- even when he's reaming spineless, pansy, wimp-ass Democrats.

Can we just clone about 300 Alan Graysons and replace the existing Dems with them? Sigh -- I can dream can't I?

Grayson to Repugs - - Eat Shit and Die!

Alan Grayson is still refusing to bow down and kiss the rings of the Republican poobahs and beg forgiveness for the crime of telling the truth and standing up for one's principles.

And all I can do is wish there were more Dems just like him.

Bada Bing, Bada Boom ! !

Holy Shit!! A Democrat with a spine and cojones the size of bowling balls.

Rep. Alan Grayson just earned his hero status wings with this humble blogger.

After months of unanswered, bogus Republican attacks claiming health care reform was going to result in death panels killing grandma, soldiers returning from war being urged to commit suicide, major cuts to Medicare, government takeover, blah, fucking blah, fucking blah! .... finally a Democrat gets off his pansy ass and gives a boffo rhetorical smackdown of his own to the fear-mongering conservanuts. Oh it's a thing of beauty too.





**UPDATE**:

Of course you just knew that the Rethugs were going to scream bloody murder about Grayson's sneak attack kick to their groins. They're running around, pulling their hair out of their toupee's, huffing and puffing, and requesting a censure motion from Speaker Pelosi in addition to demanding that Grayson get up on the floor of the House to grovel at their feet and beg forgiveness for the heinous sin of backhanding them in the face with a big old gob of fucking truth. LOL! Priceless!!

And to Grayson's credit -- it's being reported (see next video clip) -- he's telling the Repugs to fuck off. Goddamn good for him. This guy is now on my short list for a future run for President.

Fox -- They Retort, You Deride . . .

Bingo!

Somebody actually went on a national news show and stated the all-too obvious, undeniable truth about Fox News -- namely that they most certainly are NOT a legitimate cable "News" outlet but are instead an overt political propaganda operation that is beholden to and wholly supportive of the Reupblican party and conservatives in general.

Hey -- which is fine by me -- just stop advertising yourself as a "News" entity. Call yourselves the Fox/GOP channel instead. I can live with that.

But really -- come on -- you don't have to be a fucking rocket scientist to figure it out - just spend an hour a day randomly sampling Fox News shows to see what I'm referring to. And if it is still not clear to you then I can only surmise that you are obviously one of the intellectually challenged rubes who believe Obama is a Muslim born in Kenya, health care reform will euthanize your grandma, Obama is secretly building liberal "re-education" camps all over the country, Elvis is still alive and that conservative Republicans sincerely care about you and your family's well being.

A big thank you to David Shuster for putting a voice on the air who isn't afraid to speak the truth about Rupert Murdoch's ethically compromised political organization. Too bad our mainstream press is too chickenshit to do the same.

Fair and Balanced - my ass!

Hitler is informed about the title of Sarah Palin's book . . .

On the heels of the previous post -- you just knew it was coming didn't ya? Lol!






----k

Shocking! Just shocking ! !

After a 4 month, whirl-wind writeup, Sarah Palin's "memoirs" is ready for the printing press.

Here's an interesting tidbit -- Palin's co-author/collaborator on the project, Lynn Vincent, has an extensive literary history. Here's a partial list of some of the subjects she's written about:

Lynn Vincent has written about prayer in schools, gay marriage and, mostly, abortion for World. She is also co-author of the book “Donkey Cons: Sex, Crime and Corruption in the Democratic Party,” which the ad copy on Amazon.com promises will reveal:

• How corrupt Democrats in Congress outnumber corrupt Republicans by as much as three to one.

• How Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and John F. Kennedy were elected with the help of the Mob.

• What two eyewitnesses said about JFK's obsession with hookers.

• How union operatives take from working families to deliver millions of dollars to Democrats.

• How Democrats in the 1990's covered up a conspiracy one expert called "the largest incidence of obstruction of justice in American history."

• Why Democrats ignore crime victims and take the side of rapists, robbers, and cop-killers-then stump for the right of felons to vote!

Boy Howdy! I can't wait for this historically accurate, journalistic masterpiece to hit my local Barnes & Noble front window display case! IMAO!

Wingnuts dreaming of military coup against Obama. Can we just kick their asses out of the country now and get on with the business of democracy?

Well -- at least the right-wingers are displaying their treasonous tendencies for the whole world to see in public venues instead of plotting their wet dream fantasies underground.

Here you have conservative Newsmax columnist John L. Perry "musing" about the possibility of a "bloodless" U.S. military coup to unseat the horrid, evil tyrant Obama.

It's just additional evidence of what I've been saying the past few years about how the hard-core wingnut faction of the GOP has slowly morphed into a histrionic group of banana republic traitors.

I always knew that if Obama became President a very virulent strain of right-wing assholery would bubble up from the primordial ooze, where it's been contentedly dormant through the past 8 years of governing malfeasance by Bush, Cheney and the Republicans, to leave their stench on this country's historical record.

Can you imagine if some liberal journalists, shortly after 9/11 wrote articles about overthrowing Bush and inciting the military to do so? That would have been a one way, do not pass Go!, do not collect $200 ticket to Gitmo folks and you damn well know it.

And talk about sore losers. The hypocrisy is staggering in it's scope. Remember these assholes standing outside of Al Gore's residence in D.C. in the immediate days after the 2000 election, waving their juvenile "Sore/Loserman" signs and screaming at Al Gore and his family to get out of Dick Cheney's house?? Remember those fuckheads?

And Gore's mature concession still didn't make them happy. They then had their party control all 3 branches of government for 6 of the next 8 years, the White House for all 8 years, steam-rolled the hapless Democrats legislatively, and yet, because the American people collectively made a determination this past November that they'd seen and had enough of conservative "leadership" and wanted to see the country go in a different direction, it's now time to start talking military coups only 9 months into Obama's term. Holy bug-shit fucking insane batman!

In a sad, albeit mischievous sense, I kinda hope the assholes do try to start something. Exiling the entire bunch to some 3rd world island nation for crimes against the state would suit me just fine.

**UPDATE**: It seems Newsmax.com received some feedback about their Obama military coup fantasy article and have since yanked it from their website. Fortunately Talking Points Memo has archived it - just click here.
