Well…just heard on the news that the American embassy in Libya was attacked because of some anti-Islam video that was posted on the web yesterday…it’s bad enough that the ambassador and three others were killed in the fire, but now ole Mitt’s campaign has issued a statement trying to blame Obama for his response (a call for religious tolerance)…and use this tragedy for his own sordid political purposes…this, once again, points out that ole Mitt and the entire republican party has no sense of decency, only naked political ambition drives them…I hope this incident drives the last nail in the coffin of this money grubbing opportunist…geez…

More good news…
Well…the good news just keeps on coming here in Michigan…read an article in one of the Michigan newspapers that ole Mitt has abandoned Michigan and will not spend any more money here since the state is a lost cause…it just seems to me that this is the second time he has abandoned Michigan…opposing the auto bailouts and now this…and to that I say good riddance…geez….I told you these were going to be short…almost tweet like…
This is how far the republicans are willing to go…
Well…I think I will have to keep reading the twitter feeds…lots of good topics to write about…and this last one for the day is about a woman in Idaho who went online and bought RU-486 to perform her own abortion since the repubs have driven all of the abortion providers out of Idaho with their draconian laws….well, the repub prosecutor there charged this woman with a crime for this act of taking control of her own body….and doing something that would have been legal if she would have taken the pills after driving across the border into Washington…this is the America you have to look forward to if you keep electing these idiots, and especially if you elect Romney…geez…
The rats are deserting the ship…
Well…was just reading through some of the twitter feeds that I follow and found a really interesting tidbit that I want to share…in spite of all of the fake confidence that the Romney campaign is exuding…as evidenced by the “sugar high” comment from one of ole Mitt’s campaign managers and their assertion that they are still even, Paul Ryan today started to hedge his bets by getting campaign ads ready to try to retain his house seat…yep, even the number two on the ticket thinks they are dead meat and are going to lose and is scrambling like a rat on a sinking ship to continue to be able to feed from the public trough….whatever happened to doing the honorable thing and going home to write books or something when you lose an election…oh, repubs don’t do that…they move over to being lobbyists to grab a few million from the people who bought them in the legislature…what a bunch of crap…
Flippedy flop….it’s the Romney bop…
Well…I was laughing my butt off the other day when ole Mitt went on the Sunday shows to say that he would keep parts of Obamacare including the part that says that insurance companies couldn’t charge extra for those with preexisting conditions…but a few hours later, one of his aides went on tv to issue a statement that that was not what ole Mitt meant…what the aide said he meant was that those with with preexisting conditions who ALREADY HAVE insurance can’t be dropped by their insurance companies. So, the rest of the people who now don’t have insurance and have preexisting conditions are out of luck under the Romney plan…whatever that is since he has not said what his plan is…just like he has not said what his economic plan is either….what an empty suit…geez…
Talk about denial…
Well…some good news after the Dem convention where it appears that Obama got a 6 point bump as compared to none for ole Mitt…and he is now up by 5-6 points across the country including Ohio and Pennsylvania where the repubs thought they would win in a walk…and the repubs only response is that it is a “sugar high” from the convention and they are really ahead…what I think has happened is that the repub convention was based on lies and the people in this country are starting to see that, while the dem convention was based on a shared vision of America that is what it used to be….and can be again if we keep ole Mitt out of the White House…these are going to be short…kind of like tweets so I can get caught up…
Paul Ryan always has been and will always be a liar…
Well…I find it so funny to watch as the supposedly honest man in the repub party, Paul Ryan, is exposed as the liar that they all are over there…the latest whopper is the talking point that 1.4 million small businesses have filed for bankruptcy under Obama…and he goes on to repeat the meme that Obama is even worse than Carter…one of the new talking points that ole Paul has rolled out this week. The problem is that ole Paul is either not the detail oriented policy wonk that he has been portrayed, or he is just flat out lying when he makes these claims…the real numbers, according to the New York Times is around 47,000….I can see why he got it wrong since 1.4 million is so close to 47 thousand….I am laughing as ole Ryan’s reputation has crashed and burned every time he has opened his mouth in the last week…even the mainstream media is calling him out on this nonsense…take a look at the Matt Lauer interview from the other day and you’ll see what I mean…and even when caught in the lies, this idiot doubles down and tries to spin what he said so much I’m afraid he is going to burst into flames from the friction…geez…
Here’s a question…
Well…just had a thought pop into my head as I was skimming through the online papers a few minutes ago…with ole GW becoming invisible in the party due to his toxicity to the American people, to the point that he was only at the convention on video, why are all of the economic ideas that the repubs have presented just re-runs of what ole GW inflicted on the country? I know most Americans have short memories, but do they really believe that we can’t remember 2008? It just shows you that the modern repub party is devoid of new ideas and doesn’t have the capacity to understand what is necessary for the country to move forward…geez…
Just some stuff….
Well…haven’t really thought of a topic for this afternoon so it looks like it’s noodling time again…haven’t commented on the Clint Eastwood debacle from the convention…but Jon Stewart did a funny bit on his show about the absurdity of it all…and I don’t know how anyone could have called the speech that Romney delivered anything but pedestrian…no vision, no fire, no conviction…the guy is just a stiff…and there was no bounce from the convention so far so ole Mitt looks like he is in trouble…poor boy….it has been a day of getting ready for the trip but I’m almost done already so that is okay….what else? Let me go out and look at the papers for a minute and I’ll come back to see if I can come up with something…nope…nothing right now so I’ll stop and think for a while and then come back…
One last thing…the polls are showing that ole Mitt’s speech was the lowest rated one since they have been keeping records…I guess I was right about that one…
Some good news….
Well…I know I shortchanged you guys on the life column this morning and I may even go back and add to it…but, I’m sitting here listening to David Gilmour on TV and wanted to comment on some good news that has been coming for the past couple of days…it seems that the courts are starting to get it right on the voter suppression laws that the repubs are so fond of with three of them being struck down in the past week or so….along with the egregious redistricting in Texas where the repubs blatantly redrew lines to make sure that minorities would be shut out of governing…or being able to vote for people other than repubs…now, the appeals court needs to throw out the Pennsylvania law that was approved by a purchased repub judge to make it even better…and maybe then, we can get the Koch brothers out of the business of trying to buy laws through ALEC….what else? Oh, I find it the ultimate in hubris that ole Mitt is touring the hurricane flooded south and offering “whatever I can do to help”…is he so deluded that he thinks he’s president already? It is the people in the flooded area that will be hit hard if the idiot gets elected and FEMA gets eliminated…and let’s remember his running mate Ryan was the one who held up emergency assistance for tornado victims a few years back to score political points, saying that he would not approve it unless other things equal to the assistance was cut from the budget….remember folks, this is the party that doesn’t give a damn about anything but themselves…geez…
