The House Republicans Shirk on Fiscal Responsibilities - Because it's Bitter, Because it's the Right

You needn't look to the Republicans in the House to provide any credible government policy or action. Bought in its entirety by corporate America its only purpose is to capture every cent of tax revenue collected by the United States government from the middle class and put that into the pockets of corporations.


Why did the U.S. House of Representatives vote to deny the debt ceiling increase? To force more spending cuts. Specifically, Medicare and Social Security cuts. And why would they do that? Because it's more profitable out of government hands. The U.S. Government, contrary to the bullshit you've heard, controls costs. God forbid an American should ever get affordable healthcare.

Embarrassed, taken aback, chagrined at the hostile response to their ludicrous Path to Prosperity (not for you and me, but for other, more prosperous people), the bitter, bitter bastards of GOP, Inc. voted against the debt ceiling increase to ratchet up the hysteria and buy more time to lie to us, cheat us out of our common goods and government services, and steal our healthcare.

Because they are bought. And because they care about profits. Not people. Never people.

Could Andrew Breitbart be more of a jackass?

or a bigger dick?

Afghanistan - The Lost War

I have to ask: I thought we won this, about two years in. Right? Seriously, am I right? Then the Iraq War siphoned off all the resources and while we weren't watching we lost.

Dennis Kucinich - Lost Democrat

Due to political shenanigans, or "redistricting,"
Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich is about to lose his district, and thus
his seat. I guess some people think he should move somewhere where he will be more appreciated and those people, strangely, believe that place is Seattle, WA.

I'm pretty sure that's rank bullshit. i'm pretty sure his spiritual home is Portland, OR.

Sarah Palin - Rogue Republican








What the heck is she doing?

Alot of people think Sarah Palin is a fool, and they also think that she is some sort of rogue Republican outlier, operating outside the perimeter, an irritant to the party, with no place inside the party so she pulls freakish stunts designed to keep her name in the news and to purposelessy flex her political muscles.

Which is utter nonsense. Sarah Palin has never done anything that hasn't benefited the Republican party. She has never said a word that hasn't firmly drawn a line in the sand for the President Obama haters to hang their flags on, and she has assured them that hanging their flags with Obama hate is just about the most American thing a Patriot could do. Her rhetoric, her slogans, her words, her message is always the same: There is One Ameirca, One True Thing, One Place for A Patriot to Be, and that is under the umbrella with Republicans, and only Republicans. The rest of us don't belong. We are deficient of faith, of proper sentiment, and we have only taken what rightfully belongs to those who fought, bled, and whose family members have died for this country. 

So what is she doing? She is unfurling the flag of America, that special, disappearing America that needs saving from the pretenders, and she is going to give those Americans to the man (or woman) she believes represents their interests the best.

She is going to make the next American President. Sarah Palin is the American Kingmaker.
