Well…the more I read about ole Ben, the more I think he really is insane…not only is he a “young earth” evangelical, but, as I said here before, he doesn’t “believe” in science or astronomy. The latest addition to this full vat of crazy comes from a speech that he gave in the late 90’s where he said that he doesn’t believe the archeologists that say that the pyramids were built as tombs for the pharaohs…he thinks that they were built by the biblical Joseph for grain storage since the bible said that Joseph talked to the pharaohs about grains….I am shaking my head about the crazy in that one…but it goes to ole Ben’s ignorance and his substituting his beliefs for settled science. Not one archeologist supports this idiotic notion and all you have to do is look at the timing…the pyramids were built thousands of years before Joseph was even on the scene and there has never been any grain found there other than the offerings left for the pharaoh’s afterlife needs. Man, this guys is so willfully ignorant, how could he possibly lead a technological nation when science doesn’t mean anything to him? I know the modern repubs have taken know nothingness to an artform but, c’mon…this is just too much….I can’t wait to hear the comments from the rest of the world who are already laughing at us….geez…

Are the people in Kentucky just stupid?
Well…with the elections yesterday…and I voted…the people of Kentucky have shown behavior that could only be described as stupid with their electing a far right wing tea party idiot as governor. Guess what this cretin ran on…taking health insurance away from 440,000 people in Kentucky that benefited from the Medicaid expansion that the previous dem governor accepted from the feds. I wonder what it is that people are now constantly voting against their own self interest? Most of these people on Medicaid there are poor whites who overwhelmingly wanted the tea party to run their state…or ruin their state…they have a functioning state exchange called Kynect that people love but they just don’t understand that it is Obamacare…same damn thing…people there hate Obamacare by a 2-1 margin but when they just say Kynect, a majority likes it…just another example that these people are just not right…I am at a loss to understand this nonsense…..oh, well…it’s almost as bad here so I guess I shouldn’t talk too much…geez…
Shouldn’t you have to believe in science to be president?
Well…I know the know-nothingness is a badge of honor for many of those on the right but shouldn’t you have to believe in science to be president? I guess not for the ignorant masses on the right and for their leading candidate Ben Carson. In an interview this weekend, ole Ben came out and said that the theory of evolution, which does explain how everything got here, was a plot by the devil to lead people away from religion and that it can be dismissed as false since progressives believe that it does explain how life got to where it is now. He has also said that the science of astronomy is “false” and doesn’t believe in that either. I have never heard more ignorant statements from any supposed “leader” but the right eats this crap up…where did their intelligence go? Or, have they always been this stupid but just hid it better? I cannot believe that in the 21st century anyone can still think that everything they need to know was written by a bunch of ignorant goat herders over 2,000 years ago…geez…
This guy is a sheriff?
Well…I do need to do a couple more of these today and just remembered this unique bit of crazy from Milwaukee sheriff David Clarke…in an interview this past week this right wing nut was commenting on the BLM movement and, as you can expect from the right, called them a terrorist organization…but, this guy went even farther than that…he predicted that BLM and ISIS are going to merge together and kill everyone in the US…yep, a real sheriff said that..where the hell do these guys get their delusions? How do they continue to get elected when they are so demonstrably nuts? These kinds of thoughts used to be whispered in the fever dreams of the crazy…not shouted out on the airwaves like it is the most normal things you could ever say…wow…just wow…
The latest repub “debate”
Well…right off the bat I want to admit I couldn’t stomach another repub debate after about 5 mins of the ‘kiddie table” event….just way too many lies…especially ole Bobby Jindal being proud that he put 30K people out of work by cutting state government and glossing over the fact that the only reason the budget is balanced is the use of accounting tricks…leaving an almost 2 billion dollar deficit for the next governor to have to deal with…I did go out and read as much as I could take about the grown ups debate…well…as grown up as people like Rubio and Cruz can be….and the only theme was that they all have tax cut programs that would give the country away to the rich and cut every program that benefits anyone but the rich…there was one thing that they all did to deflect attention away from their delusions…and that was to attack the media for asking them questions that they couldn’t answer and hurting their fee fees…geez what a group of losers who shouldn’t ever see the White House…even on a tour….
If you hate the senate so much, Rubio, just quit…
Well…not sure if you have heard of this nonsense but I read about it a few days ago and wanted to make a short comment. In the past week or so, Marco Rubio has been telling everyone that will listen that he hates the senate and won’t run for re-election…and this has really shown in his behavior lately…having compiled the worst attendance and voting record of anyone in the senate. This coming from a person that famously said a few weeks ago about some other government official that if they won’t do their jobs, they should just quit…so, Marco, take your own advice and stop stealing your pay for the next year…pay, by the way, that is $174,000 dollars a year and that I’m sure most people wouldn’t whine about….this is the typical repub these days…bitch and complain when you have it better than most of the people in this country and make excuses for not doing your job….if the senate is too hard for you, why the hell are you running for president? So you can quit when it gets too hard like sister Sarah…what a crass little whiner…geez…
Ben Carson…wow…that’s all I have to say…
Well…if you have been paying any attention to the crazy-assed stuff that ole Ben has been spouting, this may not be a surprise to you…but it was to me and I am shaking my head about the stupidity of this guy…in the past few days, one of the things that old Ben has spewed out of his fever brain is, that if he is elected, he would change the purpose of the Department of Education to be the thought police and to withhold federal funds to any university that espoused teaching ideas that are outside the mainstream…and that mainstream is whatever ole Ben thinks it is…and, all you have to do is look at what this idiot believes to see what a nightmare world he lives in where evolution is the “work of the devil” and any progressive thought needs to be punished. Now, do you see what this looks like? Kinda like China under Mao or Germany under Hitler where people would be punished for thought…never mind that the first amendment protects thought and speech here in the US…but we all know that any repub loves the constitution until people they hate get rights from it….this guy is just batshit crazy and should never be anywhere near any government function other than receiving mental health care….geez…
Trump got a “small” loan to get his start…
Well…if you have to have more evidence that the rich really are delusional, you just have to look at the Donald’s comments from the past few days…I’m not sure of the context of this one but I think he was asked how he got so successful or some such nonsense….and he responded that he got a “small” loan from his father and took that small loan and made a fortune in real estate….sounds like a typically American story…young guy starts out with a “small” loan from his father and makes good in the big city….the only teeny little problem is his definition of “small”…small to him was a million dollars that daddy gave him to dabble around and get him out of the house….he did make some money so I won’t fault him there…but on the recommendations of daddy’s business partners which really means he didn’t do crap except be the face of the investments…and he has turned that into an “empire” by defaults, bankruptcies, and screwing people…something I guess the rich really are proud of…and the largess didn’t stop there…when ole Donald was going to default on the bonds from his casino, daddy stepped in again and laundered almost 4 million dollars to bail him out, which was illegal by the way, and the Donald had to pay a 30K fine for the wrongdoing. So, as with many of the rich, the delusions run strong in this one….another richie that started life on third base and is just convinced he hit a triple…geez…
Hillary beat them like a drum…
Well..not sure if you watched any of the marathon “hearing” on Benghazi the other day so I thought I’d talk about it for a bit…not sure what the hell ole Gowdy was thinking by scheduling her…I know, trying to get to the bottom…yadda, yadda…but, from all of the rational analysis, not Fox, she just killed these idiots and made it even more likely to get elected next year…not really what you were trying to do eh, Trey? The problem here is that all of these idiots doing the inquisition live in the right wing bubble where they KNOW that Hillary is guilty of something and if they just keep digging, harder and harder, they will find it…and the sick thing is they have been working on the Clintons since the early 90’s and have not laid a glove on them…the last time…with Whitewater, the repubs spent 60 million dollars of our money and found nothing…and now, just this one committee has spent another 5 million and counting and have found nothing….this is the repubs MO these days…can’t win at the ballot box…so lets do everything else to try to hurt your enemies…I’m tired of it…geez…
The dead-eyed granny killer is their savior?
Well…it has been quite funny to watch the courting of Paul Ryan by the rest of the repubs to be speaker of the house acting like he and only he could be the savior of their party…I would laugh if it wasn’t so silly that this idiot has that kind of a reputation…after all, what has he done in his time in the house other than run for VP? Other than put together wish list budgets for the Ayn Randians that infest this country, not much. Lets remember that this guy is one of the biggest liars in the country…remember him washing clean dishes in a soup kitchen during the campaign? Remember also how Joe Biden took him apart during the debates exposing his far right nonsense that was lauded as great ideas by the repubs. Remember, too, that these great ideas included gutting Social Security, ending Medicare and every other program that benefits anyone but the rich…and now, with the batshit crazy “Freedom caucus” in the house, he is being called a liberal…since they don’t think he goes far enough…they want to eliminate everything in the government but the military and they want to give the MIC more and more money for more and more wars. so, if you think that ole Paul is going to be the “‘savior” of the repub party and the country…you are not just ill-informed..you are an idiot…..geez…
