Well…as you know, there are times when someone does something so egregiously creepy or nasty that I have to comment on it by stealing Keith Olbermann’s “worst person in the world” schtick and now is one of those times. On Wednesday, Carly Fiorina took her already creepy behavior to a new low when she hijacked a bunch of 4 and 5 years olds who were visiting a botanical garden in Iowa to use as props for an anti abortion screed…yep, little kids that just wanted to look at plants were subjected to this child abuse by another repub asshole who is so stupid they think everyone would just love to have their kids used for an anti abortion photo op….now, if I were one of those parents, I would have filed a lawsuit for the many felonies that she has committed here…photographing children without parental consent is one of them….and I would say since the children were not allowed to leave for almost an hour, that would be kidnapping as well…just typical, typical repub behavior….real presidential….geez….

Let’s add insult to injury…
Well…as I hope you already know, actions by the repub appointed emergency manager in Flint has led to the poisoning of almost all of the residents there…and now our idiot governor has admitted that he knew way back in July that they were doing it…but did nothing about it even though every epidemiologist knows that lead poisoning is cumulative and can’t be fixed. That alone should have ole Snyder in jail or at least out of office…but that wasn’t enough for the ghouls appointed by Snyder…no, not by a long ways…now they are planning on shutting off the poison water since some people can’t pay for it…yeah, how much worse can the repubs get? Ruin the water system, poison the people, and then bitch when people either can’t or won’t pay to get poisoned anymore…just adding insult to injury that will last the rest of the people’s lives. We all know that the repubs don’t give a damn about anyone but their rich donors or corporations, but this is just too, too much…geez….
Cry me a river, Snyder….
Well….boy, these tea party folks like our governor Snyder are a thin-skinned bunch. After getting criticized by Hillary and Bernie during the debate last night for his administration poisoning the people of Flint with lead and other chemicals…ole Snyder took to twitter to bitch about his treatment by the politicians saying “political statements and finger pointing from political candidates only distract from solving the Flint water crisis”….cry me a frickin river, Rick….you screwed the pooch here and and people have died! So, your little fee fees are hurt and you’re going to pout just like the rest of you repub assholes when you get called out for your mistakes? Typical “tough” repub we have here….one who knew over a year ago that the people of Flint were being poisoned to save 200 bucks a day by not treating the water correctly….and now the rest of us here in Michigan are on the hook to the tune of more than 1.5 billion dollars for the damage this “emergency manager” did….Have you no shame? One thing to remember is the same thing is happening all across the state, in Pontiac, and in Detroit where the crony capitalism of you repub idiots is bleeding this state and turning it into a third world country just to give tax breaks to the rich and business…maybe now people will see that any place the repubs are in charge is turned into a hell hole….geez…
Marco Rubio truly is a stupid man…
Well….I really have to wonder if the repub candidates are as stupid as they sound…I mean, how can they be? The latest from ole Marco has me shaking my head at the sheer, unmitigated stupidity that continues to come out of his mouth. On Christmas eve…ole Marco went out and bought a handgun and you’ll never guess his reasoning…if you can call it that…he bought it to protect his family when ISIS attacks….I mean these guys are starting to really believe their delusions…that ISIS is the only danger to the US and that a “good guy with a gun” is the only way to stop them. That, in itself, should be enough to disqualify him from gun ownership…I mean, that is surely a sign of mental illness, isn’t it? That this idiot is even being considered to be president just make me shake my head and wonder if we really have gone too far down the tubes…geez…
Hillary is lying…again…
Well….as you know, I normally don’t go after those on the left since they actually have some good ideas that would make people’s lives better here in the US…but when they lie or propose something that would be normal coming from a repub, all bets are off and I will. The latest comes from an attack on Bernie by Hillary the other day over healthcare and how it should be delivered in the US…it is well known that Bernie wants a “Medicare for all” single payer system that would insure everyone at birth…and Hillary has stated that she wants to nibble around the edges of Obamacare and try to fix the flaws in that system. Now, that is where the lies come in…the other day Hillary trotted out her daughter to lie and say the Bernie wanted to “eliminate Medicare, Obamacare, and Medicaid” and throw millions of people off their insurance….while technically true; those programs would go away and be replaced by single payer…under Bernie’s plan everyone would automatically have insurance in the new program so no one would ever go without medical care again. Now…I can understand Hillary attacking Bernie since he has pulled even in the polls, but to use lies to do it just echoes the worst of the right and was what led to her downfall in ’08….so, since I want Bernie to win, keep it up Hillary…keep using the repub lite playbook…that will alienate the base that you need to win…what an idiot…
What did Snyder know and when did he know it?
Well…I know the title is somewhat of a cliche, but I think it gets to the crux of the matter in the Flint water crisis…not only did they do a minimum of 1.5 billion dollars in damage to the Flint water system by choosing to not treat the Flint river water to save a couple hundred thousand a year, but did they know they were doing it? Ole Snyder has said he didn’t hear of the problems until October 1st of last year, even though they had been going on for over a year, but then why were members of his staff ordering the installation of water filters in Flint back in July? It appears that ole Snyder is just another of the lying repubs who really don’t give a damn about anyone but the rich and business…just like ole GW did with New Orleans and the poor there, ole Snyder has done to Flint…permanent damage to the state and it’s people to serve their god of tax cuts and austerity…he should be in jail…
A little political stuff…
Well…there have been a few developments in politics in the past few days but I’m not sure if they have given me enough to do a whole one on each, so I guess I’ll just start and see what happens. On our side, it looks like the race is tightening in Iowa with the latest polls showing it to be close…not quite a dead heat but Bernie has been gaining…or, Hillary has been sliding back and now we see what is going to happen from the Hillary camp…they are now starting to attack Bernie and I had hoped that we would have stuck to the issues instead of the nastiness that flows from the right….but, I guess it’s politics and to be expected…especially when Hillary was the anointed one back in 08 and she lost that one, too…then we have the latest where Carly and Rand have been demoted to the “kiddie” table debate and ole Rand is throwing a hissy fit about it…saying that he won’t participate…basically saying that the rules don’t apply to him…just like every other repub when they don’t get their way…what a bunch of losers…geez….
I think they protest too much…
Well…have been reading quite a few articles that talk about how the pundits on the right are attacking ole Trump since he ‘doesn’t represent the republican party’s values”…and then I just have to laugh my butt off….what values are they talking about? Gutting Social Security? Hating everyone that is not a christian or white? Taking away healthcare from millions? Giving the rich more and more of the country? Having more and more guns everywhere? Closing the border to Muslims? Cheating to win elections? I hate to break it to the pundits….this is EXACTLY the repub party these days….the Donald is channeling the id of the party and has taken what were dog whistles and turned them into shouts and made it acceptable to bring all the meanness and hatred to the surface for all to see…so the next time you say this isn’t “your” repub party you are either stupid or lying…or both….just stfu…..
Still trying….
Well….I have been trying all day…again…to find a topic that will mean something…well…to me anyway…and I am still not having much luck….I do find it funny that the ultimate birther king, ole Donald has turned his sighst on Ted Cruz since he wasn’t born in the US…using the same methods he always uses to make his lies sound like there may be a grain of truth in them…the old “some people are saying” that Ted isn’t a citizen…just like he said “some people saw” thousands of Muslims in New Jersey celebrating on 9/11 when that wasn’t true either…but, I do relish the fact that he is turning on the other idiots in the repub race…this is going to need some popcorn….I did find another thing funny with the Obamacare repeal bill that was sent to the president, and the repubs all patting themselves on the back for it; knowing it would be vetoed and thinking they were super geniuses for doing it. Are they going to try to run on it this year? Taking insurance away from 20 million people? Man, I can see the ads now and even I could write them…nice job, geniuses….geez…
It’s even worse than I thought in Flint…
Well…as you know, I did a post a few weeks back on the lead poisoning of the people of Flint when the first info came in that the water source was changed to just save money…a decision made by the Snyder appointed emergency manager…but, it’s much, much worse than that….these assholes knew they were poisoning the poor people in Flint and that they were taking care of it with water treatment when they just flat lied about it with a pattern of faking the water test results that would have exposed the danger. This is typical repub crap…make decisions based on cost when the guys making the decisions know they will hurt people….and they just don’t give a damn..especially when they can go home to their nice suburbs where the water and air are clean and it has no effect on them…the water in Flint was so bad the GM stopped using the water at their engine plant since it ruined iron engine blocks…read that again…Flint was saying that there was nothing wrong with drinking the water when it was eating away iron…what do you think it would do to a person? Typical repub crap and someone needs to go to jail for this….starting with the guy that appointed them..ole Rick Snyder..I’m glad there is now a federal investigation going on and I’m sure they will find that Snyder knew what was going on…but he will use the Chris Christie defense that he didn’t know what the people he appointed were doing….and that will be a lie…geez…
