Bad Enough Without Being So Shrill, Baby, Shrill

Regarding Obama's negative response to Arizona's new immigration bill, Palin has accused the president of "perpetuating this myth that racial profiling is a part of the law."
That's right, Sarah--sort of like the myth that off-shore oil rigs are a threat to the environment.

Aren't These The Same People That Were Just Screaming About Obama Being "Indecisive"?

The complaints by Washington Republicans that we are rushing into health-care and financial reforms are maddening.
How can you work too fast to pass legislation that will save thousands of lives?
How can you stop Wall Street from robbing the public too quickly?

The knee-jerk stonewalling of the president on every issue has eliminated all common sense from the legislative process. It is unprecedented and disgusting.
If minority leaders McConnell and Boehner have such good arguments against Obama's financial overhaul, why don't they want a debate?

Seat Me In The Non-Clicheing Section, Please

Total failure at finding intelligent conversation at the coffee shop this morning.
I wonder if the people who insist on telling me that "Life is a bitch and then you die" realize how much they contribute to life being that way?

A Challenge: Answer These Questions And I'll Join Your Goddamn "Party"

Tea Partyers:

1. If our current government is SOCIALIST, why has it provided 30 million new customers for privately owned insurance companies?

2. If it's FASCIST, why haven't you people been rounded up and arrested for holding anti-government rallies? Do you honestly believe that public dissent was allowed in Franco's Spain, Mussolini's Italy, or Hitler's Germany?

P.S. History books aren't just for burning--you might try reading one.

Face Wasilla Five Times A Day, Kneel And Repeat This

My ex-governor has just proclaimed that she stands for "Guns and the Bible!"
Hmmmmm. Doesn't this sound remarkably like the battle cry of the . . . .?

Confused

As usual, I am completely confused by all matters theological. Just when I'm convinced that earthquakes are caused by devil worship, I'm informed that they are caused by female promiscuity. What's a guy to think? I wish there were a good astrologer or witch doctor around here to guide me through this.

By the way, does anyone have a calendar handy? This is the 21st Century--right?

The Endless Campaign. "Hell, I Don't Have To Think-- I've Got A National Committee That Does It For Me."

Parnell's recent decision was probably fueled by pure politics as much as anything else. He backed some progressive legislation (education, women's issues) in this last session, so now he has to show his true conservative colors--after all, he's facing re-election.

This is consistent with the concept of Constant Campaigning that is currently dominating our national political scene--to a nauseating degree. No one dare break with his party line and risk losing office. Campaigning has taken precedence over legislating and it's tearing the country apart.

Scary Thought

Parnell claims that universal health care will "cost us our freedom." Hey, Sean, without your health you don't have freedom, you don't have anything. Without health there is no Life, Liberty, or Pursuit of Happiness--oops, I almost forgot. According to the Tea Party assclowns, Thomas Jefferson was un-American. Jesus Christ, I thought Jefferson invented America!
You really have to wonder just what these people's idea of America is. It's becoming a scary thought.

Who Needs Sarah, We've Got Sean

Alaska's governor, Sean Parnell, just joined the other 19 states suing the Feds over Obama's health care bill.
This is personal--that bill would definitely help ME.
If Parnell has decided that my good health is a threat to his plans for Alaska and the rest of the country, he's right. I'M BACK AND I'M PISSED!
