Career rehab continues…

Well…I guess with Woodward’s new book “Peril” coming out, it’s time for the repub career rehab to continue starting with Lindsey Graham where it states that he vehemently disagreed with the trump voter fraud bleating and found that the evidence was suitable for “third grade”…if that’s the case then why didn’t ole Lindsey say anything to the public and continued to play along with the lies to the point of calling the Georgia Secretary of State and ask him to throw out mail in votes that had “irregularities” with the signatures? And why to this day does ole Lindsey continue to support trump if he does nothing but lie? Look, this is just like ole GW giving a speech last week comparing the capital attackers to the Taliban…where the hell has he been for the past 4 years?  Does he think this one speech wilI erase the memory of his failures? I know he loves sitting in his tub and painting but damn, couldn’t he muster just a little concern for the country? After all, he and his administration started the whole lying about everything that the idiot trump grabbed and ran with…so no amount of rehab is ever going to get rid of the stench of failure these traitors will carry the rest of their lives…geez…

Just trying…

Well…not sure why I am not creative at all when I don’t feel well but you can see it with me missing post number two the past few days….now, there is one thing that just makes me furious with my fellow Americans…over 40% of them want the idiot Trump to be president…just let that sink in for a while….that there are millions of people that have bought the fox news bs so totally that they could run a Saint Bernard and they would vote for it…..I am at a loss why that could be other than they really enjoy hate and they really do hate gays, AA’s, and anyone that has a thought that is to the left of Ghengis Khan….I wonder what it would be like to live in that world? Now, I used to be angry quite a bit, but it was a righteous anger aimed at the inequities and stupidity in the world…and mostly at the idiot GW since he did so much damage to this country…damage that would look like a tea party compared to what Trump would do…but, I got better over time and I find myself more bemused most of the time since I realize that there isn’t a damn thing I can do about anything….much easier on my psyche….

What could 8 trillion buy?

Well….have been stewing a little today with the waste of our military people for trumped up wars that the old, fat, stupid Bush administration got us into…I am just so tired of the need for more burials, more memorials, and more waste of the young people of the US just to feed the egos of the war makers…I think the Black Sabbath song “War Pigs” is the perfect description for these asses…but, then there is the monetary cost of this folly that the country will be paying for long after my kids are gone…for 8 trillion dollars you could fix every road, every bridge, every water system, every school, every environmental disaster that needs to be fixed in this country….you could pay for a full college education for the next two generations of kids and have them graduate debt free…..you could give everyone on SS a 50% raise and pay for healthcare for the entire country….this is what those idiots in the Bush administration did…they wasted the future of this country just so Dick Cheney could play tough guy…so  he could play out his fantasy of being the smartest guy in the room…and for that the country rots from the inside….

Here comes ole GW….

Well….as you know ole JEB!’s campaign has been floundering with a  6th place finish in Iowa that cost him almost $3,000 per vote given the huge sums of money he spent there…and now, his solution to his moribund campaign? Roll out ole GW (aka the smart one) to campaign for him in south Carolina since the voters there “still think kindly” of him….now, who would roll out a war criminal, worst president in modern history to try to help his campaign? I think this just shows how insulated and delusional the folks in the Bush camp are….they still think GW was a good president, that he didn’t authorize torture, that he and his cronies didn’t crash the economy that we are still digging out from. I welcome ole GW coming out to remind everyone that he was not elected to his first term…that he was installed by the right wingers on the supreme court and then it went downhill from there…what’s next? Bring out Cheney? Just tell him to leave the shotgun at home…or maybe JEB! could get some sympathy if Cheney shot him in the face….I wish I was a comedian, it would just be so easy to write the jokes about this debacle…geez…

Magical thinking…

Well…ole JEB! just came out with his tax plan he will enact if he is elected….okay, I know you laughed at that one…and that is something else we are going to laugh at since it is filled with magical thinking and based on the discredited economics that blew up the deficit under ole GW. The entire plan is just more and more tax cuts for business and the rich and makes the assumption (disproved many, many times) that cutting taxes raises revenue; the old Laffer curve nonsense that even Saint Ronnie had to abandon after the deficits exploded…he was even sane enough to follow the evidence after the cuts and to understand that the only way to raise revenue is to raise taxes…something that this new crop of repubs just won’t do with their stupid pledges to Grover Norquist to never raise taxes. I don’t wonder why ole JEB!’s tax plan looks just like his idiot brother’s…they were the fevered dreams of the same set of advisers so with JEB!, you get 4 more years of ole GW…and we know how well that worked out…geez….

I laughed…

Well….have had a weird day so far with lots of problems on the bike but that’s not what this is about…read a little article this morning that ole GW got $100,000 to do a speech at a fundraiser for a homeless shelter in Texas…I question why anyone would pay to listen to this idiot who has been wrong on everything he ever did, bailed out by his daddies buddies when he went bankrupt, and is a war criminal, but I also question his understanding of a fundraiser for homeless people and the good that that $100,000 speaking fee would do for the homeless….that said the comments to the article were predictable….the Clintons go all over the world and make more money than that…and it is a good thing that GW stays in the states to do his speeches…yeah, ole GW stays in the states to do his “good work” for the American people…he stays in the states since if he travels almost anywhere, he will be arrested and sent to the Hague for a war crimes trial…and that is the only reason he doesn’t travel…not for any love of country…what a bunch of maroons…geez…

A better question to ask…

Well…there has been a little uproar with the media in the past few days when many of them have been asking the repub presidential contenders the question “would you still invade Iraq with what we know now?”….but, that is the wrong question for me…the real question that should be asked is “would you allow your administration to manufacture a  reason to take the country to war?” I admit that would be a pretty easy one to answer….and, I’m not sure if it would be pertinent or not, but what it would do is stop the media sanitizing how we got involved in Iraq in the first place and remind everyone that ole GW and Cheney lied to the world and America almost 200 times in the run up to the war. That needs to be shouted from the rooftops…especially since a lot of the liars from ole GW’s administration are getting back in place for Jeb’s run and are part of Rubio’s, too….that would be a story that I would like to see run somewhere in the media…geez…

Jeb is just as dumb as GW…

Well…read this little nugget of crazy the other day but forgot about it until I was reading the paper today….as you know, ole Jeb is running for president and guess who he has as one of his “top” advisers on foreign policy….ole GW…yep, that GW, the one who manufactured evidence and lied us into a war that has cost almost 3 trillion dollars…and Jeb is supposed to be the smart one? And, he went on at Liberty University the other day that anyone else that would have been president at the time would have done the same thing given the “facts” that they had…..no, Jeb, because any other president who didn’t have Darth Cheney as their VP wouldn’t have had a the “facts” that you had…the lies that there were wmd, that Saddam was working on a nuclear weapon….and on and on….I’m not sure what is the more stupid thing…to invade Iraq in the first place…killing hundreds of thousands and setting the stage for ISIS to rise in the power vacuum, or to know how big a mistake it was and still support it….that from the “smart” Bush….Jeb is just as dumb as GW and we don’t need another moron in the White House…geez…

This is what happens when you don’t lock up criminals….

Well…I’m not sure if I’m looking forward to the presidential elections next year…it seems that the right is back to the same old crap with the same old people…tax cuts for the rich, gut everything else and grift as much money as you can. But, the worst part of the whole thing is the recycling of the criminals in foreign policy that were responsible for the debacle of the Iraq war, torture, and 2 trillion dollars in debt that we didn’t need to spend on an enemy that was faked from the start. These people are coming out of the woodwork for one reason and one reason only: the failure of the Obama administration to prosecute the clear lawbreaking that was done by Bush, Cheney and the rest of their administration that lied us into war and then tortured in violation of international law. By doing that, Obama broke the law, too, and the international conventions that don’t allow us to decide whether or not to prosecute those who torture or order torture…we are obligated to do so by treaty. Do you ever wonder why ole GW Bush and Cheney never leave the country? They would be arrested and sent to the Hague for war crimes trials just as other despots and criminals have been. This is what happens when you don’t lock up criminals…like cockroaches, they come crawling out from under their rocks and, since they were never charged with war crimes,  spew their warmongering crap again and again….there is no statute of limitations on war crimes…let’s hope the next president has the guts to do what’s right….geez…

Obama derangement syndrome and the Ukraine..

Well…to hear the right howl and howl about the supposed inaction of the president on the Ukraine, you’d think he was drowning puppies or giving Putin Alaska to ensure he won’t invade. The only thing you need to remember, though, is this is just another instance of Obama derangement syndrome where the right will bitch about everything just because he is presidentin’ while black and, for the chicken hawks on the right, the only solution to any diplomatic problem is another war that will enrich themselves and their buddies in the war supplying business. One thing that pisses us off on the left is the fact that they call Obama weak because he is letting Putin push him around by not threatening war when ole GW let Putin invade Georgia and basically level the place….and without any squeak from the right saying that GW was weak….so, to me, these asses on the right have no standing to criticize when it is so nakedly political and devoid of any principle….geez…
