Today's Tweet

This is just plain fuckin' genius.




It'd scare fuck-all outa Clarence Thomas, wouldn't it?  And it'd keep Senate amoeb-licans busy for months - especially if the White House made a show of bringing somebody in to shepherd the nominee thru the process; somebody like Alan Simpson maybe (not that he'd do it, but fuck me, that'd be fun). There's a knife-fighter out there somewhere looking for his shot at shoving something of substance up a few asses on the hill.

Half of the GOP might actually suspect that Obama's just fuckin' with 'em now and they'd  pull back a little, but ya gotta know the others would be happily scrambling to find ways to fuck her over which will let a bunch of them in for a nice little beating come November by providing some extra motivation the Dems can use to drive people out to the polls.  They'll need it to overcome the problems caused by voter ID.

Do it.

So Desiderata is making the rounds again, and I just can't let that shit go unchallenged - not when there's this:

Debate Tweets




























Ciao

"Conservative" icon Antonin Scalia dies, and we can absolutely count on at least one of his fellow "conservatives" to pay him great honor and respect by tweeting out a picture that's NOT Antonin Scalia.



Senator Ron Johnson is a seriously doltish meathead who probably couldn't find his ass with a guide and a fucking GPS.

The good news is that Russ Feingold is back and could end up kicking this turd muffin to the curb.

Seriously - what the fuck is wrong with these guys?

The Patriots

The pinnacle of historical esteem is when people write songs about you and your exploits.  I guess there's some kind of opposite thing happening when they do it as satire(?)

It takes a writer like Fallows to see the "enormity" of the problem and then express it in fewer words rather than more.

Goober Squad Update

The last of the militia schmucks in Oregon gave it up today and surrendered to the FBI.


So, of course, I had to bop over to Fox Nation to check on the reactions of the Guano Clan - and also too because trolling those mush-brains is just too damned fun.

Today's best troll comment:



The System Ain't Broke

...it's fixed.


And Then There Were 7

And the question now is - will they let Jim Gilmore into the next debate?  I mean - gee whiz  - he was only 6300 votes outa 8th place in New Hampshire.  And you gotta have an odd number so you can make sure Trump's always at center stage.  C'mon, guys, think.

Today's WIngnut

Some of these wackos are giving wackos a bad name.



The Purge for Purity is just plain silly if you're concluding that a rapacious privatizing rent-seeking asshole like Paul Ryan doesn't quite measure up to your Assholery Specifications.
