Well…just a short one while I thaw out from the bike ride…I hope you saw the debacle of a press conference that was given by the three stooges the other day…no, not the real stooges but the stooges from the repub party, Michelle Bachmann, Steve King, and Louie Gohmert. For some reason, they took a trip to Egypt and then put on the most stupid event I have ever seen in their press conference…not a bit of intelligence between the three of them…I can not remember hearing three less intelligent people go out and embarrass this country like they did…and then ole Michelle even tops it by going on and on about how long the US has been here and culture, values, etc…lecturing people whose culture has been around for 5,000 years….there has to be a way to keep the stupid here in the US so we don’t lose the last vestige of respect we have in the world…geez…

Craziness?
Well…it’s 3:16 and I still can’t think about anything to comment on for the day…at least political stuff and that is starting to get frustrating…again…I have been reading about the repub craziness that has been spreading across the country…what is it about them that allows them to say any damn thing they want without any regard for whether it is the truth or not? We have ole Michelle Bachmann today saying that Obama wants Obamacare implemented so it will increase his personal power and control over the economy…now let’s do a little math…the latest change that will allow companies another year before they have to start paying fines or offering coverage is now set to take effect at the end of 2015..a year before Obama leaves office…so exactly what power does this change confer on him? Is he going to take over the insurance companies after he leaves office? Craziness, craziness…
Then, we have ole Mike Huckabee comparing womens rights to control their body to slavery…and since we eliminated slavery on moral grounds…then, we must eliminate abortion on those same moral grounds…yep, not making this up..this could even be a plan…to drive the crazy so far out that when they pull back to only delusional it will seem reasonable…I think it is our responsibility as being the reasonable party to make sure that even when this happens, to make sure they don’t get a pass on the crazy like the media is allowing right now….geez….
Ding dong, the witch is dead…
Well…this pretty average day has just gotten so much better with the announcement that the craziest house member that the US has ever seen, Michelle Bachmann, is not going to run again in 2014…and immediately the average intelligence of the House just went up by 30 points. She ran out the normal platitudes on why except the tired old “to spend more time with my family” but we all know that she took a look at the easy, rich life that sister Sarah got from the right when she became the half-governor and wanted to slop at that trough before she gets out crazied by the new crop of even crazier righties. I could list a list of the stupidity that has spewed from this idiot but google does a much better job at it so just google it and see…the last thing I have to say is “ding dong, the witch is dead”…good riddance…geez…
Maybe John McCain is regaining his soul….
Well…this is going to be a short one on the jaw dropping assertions by Michelle Bachmann that a muslim aide of Hillary Clinton’s is connected to the Muslim Brotherhood and is, in effect, a traitor that is trying to bring Islamic rule to the US. Yep, in the world of Bachmann crazy, this one is even crazier than most and just shows how stupid and biased these folks are. But, then, along comes John McCain (who lost his soul in the last election and is entirely responsible for unleashing Sarah Palin on the US) to rise to a full throated defense of this woman, calling her a great American for her service to the country and slapping ole Michelle for her normal nonsense….now, if he could just do the same to the tea party idiots that he helped get elected so we can get back to some sanity in the national discourse…geez…
I predicted this one….
Well…a few days ago, I expressed my hope that one of the outcomes of the Iowa repub nonsense would be that both Perry and Bachmann would just go home and we would never have to hear from them again…and I predicted that poor showings would have that result. I am happy to report here that ole Rick is heading back to Texas to “think” about his campaign…I don’t know what he is going to think about…can he even think? Or, will his donors and cronies do the thinking for him while he styles his hair? Then, ole Micheel has a news conference scheduled for this afternoon for a “major announcement” on the direction of her campaign…but the only direction I see for her is to head due north back where she came from….maybe we can hope that she will retire and go back to “un-gaying” gays in Minnesota. What a couple of know-nothing losers that even the delusional repubs have rejected as being unqualified…now, if we could just do the same for ole Newt and Santorum, the IQ of the entire party would rise about 50 points.
One last thing, I’m going to keep hammering on Mitt for the lies on job creation that he keeps spouting on the trail…the latest is that he “created” over 100K jobs while at Bain Capital…but he never nets that with the hundreds of thousands of jobs that he killed while stealing the assets of the companies that Bain purchased..so folks…you can tell when ole Mitt is lying about his jobs record…it’s when he opens his mouth…geez…
A few things..
Well…just a few things that I want to comment on this morning to try to get back in the swing of things and get some political commentary going again…first…I just can’t wait for the Iowa nonsense to be over and done with…and I am glad I don’t live there to have to listen to and see all of the political ads that have dominated the airwaves…but there will be one bright spot to come out of today..or maybe two…we probably won’t have to listen to Michelle Bachmann or Rick Perry any more since they are both likely to finish well back in the pack…I don’t know why anyone listened to them anyway…they are two of the most stupid sounding politicians that I have ever heard…and I’ve been around a long time. I really can’t wait until they start to hammer ole Mitt on his claims to have created over 100K jobs while at Bain Capital when it is just not true…never created one job….remember that folks…never created one job and I look forward to him having to really answer for his destructive reign there and personally profiting in the hundreds of millions of dollars while he and his cronies looted companies that would still be alive if it weren’t for them.
Oh, one last thing….I see that the incestuous right wing media nonsense continues in today’s Detroit News where they treat their house dog Manny Lopez as an independent writer when they published his screed about Obama’s vacation and ole Manny’s contention that Obama can’t care about the 99 percenters since he is one of the one percent. The first thing to me is that there should be disclosure that Manny is regular columnist at the News and to make it look like he is an independent “other voice” is just dishonest and only adds to the echo chamber that is the right wing media. The more salient point to make here, though, is that Obama worked hard and achieved his way to the one percenter that he is…he didn’t have mommy or daddy start him on third base and tell him he hit a triple…geez….
Michelle Bachmann is still an idiot…
Well….just a short little one about the latest craziness from ole Michelle….yesterday, talking to some of her supporters, she “blamed” Obama and his foreign policy ineptitude for the “Arab Spring” that saw the removal of many dictators from the northern Africa Arab states. Now, let me get this straight…it’s a bad thing that millions of people now live in countries that have budding democracies and more freedom than they had? Oh, I get it, freedom is okay and necessary for the US but for anyone else it’s destabilizing and a threat to Israel. This woman is just one of the stupidest people I have ever heard speak and everyone should just ignore her instead of giving weight to the nonsense she spouts…does she truly believe that nothing can happen in any country around the world without the permission of the US? This is third grade level foreign policy and drips of the desperation that is rampant in her campaign with her plummeting poll numbers….bye bye Michelle…
It’s Monday and Rick Perry is still an idiot…
Well…I am just laughing my butt off listening to rick Perry continue to take credit for job growth out of one side of his mouth and then attack big government with the other…..when one of the primary drivers of that growth has been the doubling of federal spending there over the past 5 years because they have a lopsided amount of military bases there….now, what would the job growth be here in Michigan if the federal government poured 200 billion dollars a year into construction projects, military bases, and prisons? Doesn’t he know we can look this stuff up? I’ve had just about enough of these repub nutjobs being allowed to lie and say anything they want without the media calling them on it…where are the reporters that should be asking the tough questions and putting a stop to this nonsense?
Then we have wonderful ole Michelle Bachmann who told an audience in Florida yesterday that the earthquake and hurricane were messages from god and that Washington needs to change it’s ways…so, Michelle, god is now setting policy for the US?….just this one statement should be enough to have her laughed off the national stage….where is Walter Cronkite when we need him….or Edward R. Murrow….geez…
One last thing about ole Rick…in his book and in many of his campaign stops he has repeatedly said that government is the problem….kind of a strange thing for a person to say that has spent his entire life in government feeding from the public trough…just another repub hypocrite….
Another trillion dollar tea party tax…
Well….I hope you’ve had a chance to see that what I predicted last week with interest rates rising for the first leg of the tea party tax on the middle class has happened and there is a new leg to that story that is occurring as we speak….the Dow is down almost 400 hundred points and that means any of us that have 401K’s or IRA’s (and that is most of us) have just paid another trillion dollars for the tea party nonsense that held up raising the debt ceiling. Yep, but you shouldn’t be surprised…the republicans are always wrong on the economy…every fricking thing they do is the exact opposite of what should be done…and remember, it was the tea partiers led by Michelle Bachmann that wanted the US to default on it’s obligations and truly believed that there would be no effect…what do you say now Michelle?…what do you say now Cantor? Geez…what idiots….
Oh, one last thing, where are the jobs Boehner?
Okay, I’m six short for the month…
Well…I don’t think I’ve been so far behind in numbers here since I started this thing so I guess I’d better get my butt in gear and get a couple more out today….it was a tiny bunny day out on the trail today and I was really amused how they would never just cross the trail in front of me but would cross then run down the trail for a few yards…they are much faster than they look…I was going 15 and they were keeping up….just a bit of trail weirdness…
I did want to get to the nonsense that Bachmann and her ilk are peddling on the campaign trail about the stimulus package…their contention being that the stimulus did not work at all and it was a waste of 700 billion dollars…well, Michele, the stimulus was almost half tax cuts so what you’re saying is that tax cuts don’t work to stimulate the economy, right? So, why are you and the rest of the nut job right continuing to push more and more tax cuts? It just shows that these guys don’t give a damn about the economy except how it can be used to benefit the rich and connected….geez….
