Election 2008

One of the true treasures of the long presidential campaign in my opinion, and obviously in others as well has been our discovery of Tina Fey as Sarah Palin. Fey is no stranger to awards, having won several on 30 Rock, but for many of us she was - Sarah Palin! In fact, when they were on stage together it was nearly impossible to tell them apart.

We're not certain just how much truth is behind Sarah Palin's statement that she found Tina Fey to be hilarious, as she admitted to watching with the sound turned off. Interpret that, if you please.

Here is the truly hysterical speech in which Tina Fey receives her award, and a compilation of some of the funniest moments from SNL which got us through a long grueling campaign, and are just as humorous now! BTW, as much as we love Tina as Sarah, we too are happy that Tina Fey got her wish. "Please let me be done playing this woman by Nov 5. if anyone can help me be done playing this lady nov 5, that would be good for me." We miss you Tina/Sarah, but it's very good for us too!

His name is not Joe, it is Samuel Wurzelbacher. Neither is he a plumber or an apprentice plumber. He became famous for asking Barack Obama how he would be taxed if he bought a plumbing company and made over $250,000 a year. Sam was a day laborer working for a plumber commanding the roto-router machine wearing those thick gloves all full of shit. Sam with less than doodeysquat was pretending to be or soon to be a wealthy plumber.

Before he even begins he has three big lies under his plunger putting him on the short list for the conservative networks to hire as a war correspondent.

With such impeccable credentials, having paid his dues in becoming a journalist and his glib pronounciations on the state of the world, he is the man of the day. Mr Republican! Second only to Sarah Fey Palin as the most popular Republican in America.
Some of his finest work from just yesterday:

"They[Israelis] can't do normal things day to day, they get soap in their eyes in the shower, for fear of rockets, I am sure they're taking quick showers. I know I would."

"I am a peaceloving man, but when someone hits me, I'm going to unload on the boy. And if the rest of the world doesn't understand that, then I'm sorry."

"I am an expert on media bias. I was on the short end of the stick, like Israel is now."

"I think media should be abolished from reporting.   Um, you know, war is hell and if you're gonna sit there and say uh well look at this atrocity.  Well, you don't know the whole story behind it half the time. So, um, I think the media should have no business in it."�

"I have thousands of questions but I can't think of the right one."

The last two elections have caused many conservatives to go out of their minds, but some like Charles Krauthammer have completely lost it.

In his column this week, Make 'Princess Caroline' win seat through election, this lipless little Neocon prick says we cannot be appointing empty seats in the Senate. Especially when it concerns Democrats, Jacksons', Bidens' or OH MY GOD the Kennedys'. His point is to not only change the constitution - the 17th Amendment - but to throw special elections into off month off years to ensure vacancies are filled in elections where less than 10% of the voters bother to show up. We know well such elections are easily manipulated by mass mailings from extremists, and you know who they are. It is how all those crazy creationists get on school boards. Not to even mention a call for a special election would cost NY State close to $100 million, a bit much these days when every state is about to go broke. Thank a Republican near you. 

Here is the quote that gives this nonsense of his away:

Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against Caroline Kennedy. She seems a fine person. She certainly has led the life of a worthy socialite helping all the right causes. But when the mayor of New York endorses her candidacy by offering, among other reasons, that "her uncle has been one of the best senators that we have had in an awful long time," we've reached the point of embarrassment. 

We found yesterday that the seething hatred of Senator Ted Kennedy by another Neocon - Mamma's boy and good looking Jonah Goldberg was - because Kennedy has been in the forefront in educating our children and has fought hard against handing them over to the Religious Right through voucher systems. Jonah Goldberg Compares Sarah Palin to Caroline Kennedy, Believe it or not!

Krauthammer is not as clear as to why he hates Kennedy so much, but it sure is the impetus of his silly column. The most obvious guess is that the Senior Senator from Massechucetts wants to give every American affordable health care, which makes Republicans go nuts.

Here is the text of the 17 the Amendment.

The 17th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:

The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote. The electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislatures.

When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided, That the legislature of any State may empower the executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.

This amendment shall not be so construed as to affect the election or term of any Senator chosen before it becomes valid as part of the Constitution.

  I read today that Obama failed to win even one county in Oklahoma and statewide he lost to McCain 2 to 1. Also 56% of the voters in Oklahoma said in the exit polls they were Evangelical Christians. As is The Word, Hillbillies.

The red and blue divide is no longer about white versus black, rich versus poor or even rural versus urban. It is now smart versus stupid. Intellectual versus anti-intellectual. Secular versus God fearing Goobers.  

Our new President will have to reach his hand across the isle, he will have to lead from a Center position, he will have to put our national security (wars) above where we thought he was during this election, Barack Obama has to play nice. 

But I don't, and neither do you.  And I hope to Hell Congress gives them a well deserved kick in the ass.

As a veteran I have not flown the flag of my country in my yard for a generation because I did not want any intelligent people who may happen through Dumbutt here, thinking I was as much of a right-wing reactionary dim bulb as my neighbors. As is The Truth, Hillbillies.  That has now changed. I have the flag flying right now for no reason my neighbors can discern.

Recently in the Primaries Barack Obama gave these Hillbillies a little jab by saying they "cling to guns and religion". What he meant to say (had he not been running for office) was that the biggest voting bloc in America are Hillbillies (no matter what their elevation) who wallow in gungoonery and religious fanaticism because they are ignorant uneducated bigots.

The GOP is now on a path to cleanse itself from any moderate influences. Soon the most disgusting people in America will be the ONLY part of the Republican Party.  Perhaps they need a new name?  We once called them Puritans, Fundamentalists, Evangelicals, White Trash, the Moral Majority, the Religious Right and of course, Those White People in the Trailer with all the Guns and Snakes Who Marry their Cousins. Well, with 67% of Republicans saying they want Sarah Palin to be their nominee for president in 2012, can we call these people Palinites?  Palindrones? Or just stick to Hillbillies?  

So what can we do about these people? How can we help bring them into our more human community? We can't deport them, there is no keeping them from voting or shutting them up, but we could educate them you betcha!

What if we were to mandate that all Americans can go to college free with a requirement that everyone pass compulsory courses in world geography, Western Civilization, Eastern Civilization, Anthropology, comparative religion, biology, environmental science, world literature and at least one class in multicultural studies.

The bane of religious dogmatism is a freely educated populace. Imagine what six hours of college classes would accomplish rather than six hours of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. A light bringing Hillbilly American out of the Dark Ages.  Well... If we can keep them from marrying their cousins anyway.

Neocons are conservative Irishmen whose overt ideology is Empire through War while covertly their point is to saturate the Middle East with as much Muslim blood as possible.

Neocons are the reason we went into Iraq, why we are there now, and why we will soon be moving it all to Afghanistan, which we will have to occupy for another generation. These wars are not about oil as much as they are about religious fanaticism, ethnic revenge and the ear of a susceptible know-nothing President.

In 2004 Senator Joe Lieberman quit the Democratic Party over his thirst for war, more wars and forever war. Subsequently he was allowed to caucus with the Democrats no matter because the Party needed Senate heads to count. They even allowed him to chair the Homeland Security Committee.

During this election Joe the Traitor went over the top, adding to his treason against the Democratic Party he personally stabbed Barack Obama in the back as well.

Rather than pin a carnation on his lapel and kiss his cheek goodbye, Senate Godfather Harry Reed told him he would be removing him from his Homeland Security Chairmanship. Joe the Traitor snapped back that he would leave join the Republicans if they did that to him! Hey, he left the party 4 years ago! He was the keynote speaker at the Republican Convention! Like Zell Miller Redux. What happened to Zell Miller anyway?

Asking Lieberman to vacate his chair at Homeland Security is not vengeance on the part of Harry Reed or any Democrat, rather it is common sense.  When it comes to terrorism, Muslims, Arabs, War, the Middle East and violence the last person Democrats would want in charge of such decisions is someone who is further to the Right of the GOP on those very issues, i.e., Neocons. Lieberman and McCain are World War 3 jockeys for christake... The more saber rattling and wars they can get us into the more they glow. You know like how Senator Lindsay Graham's head lights up whenever he says the word "patreaus".

Barack Obama today spoke up on behalf of Joe the Traitor saying he wanted to keep him in the Democratic Caucus. NoDramaObama did the right thing [he must have seen that movie.] After all, the emotional thirst for revenge may be demanded in this case, but most certainly it would not be in the best interest of the Democratic party. So Barack Obama - on both a personal and political level - has risen above it all and decided to let that white whale be, to let it be.

So what are the options for Joe Lieberman?
 
What usually happens to traitors who end up on the losing side? [like in the state of Africa for example]
What happened to Zell Miller?
What is there for Joe on the Republican side of the isle, where there are no chairmanships at all?
Why would Republicans want a pro Life, distribute the wealth socialist on their side?
But it all comes down to the bottom line...
Why would any sane person in Connecticut vote for this creepy crawler again?

Time, time, time is on our side, yes it is...

I admit I cried during this, two or three times in fact. 

I had been waiting and fighting for 27 years for this moment. Especially after it turned dirty ugly in 1994 thanks to the likes of Newt Gingrich, Tom DeLay, Dick Armey, Trent Lott, and Rush Limbaugh. Hopefully that ugly part of the GOP is now forever gone.

Those gosh darned Robo-callers just took matters into their own mechanical hands. That has to be the explanation for what has happened in FLA just today,when you'd think all of the shenanigans would be over, and the GOP would be blowing up hot air balloons for tonight's a-hem....celebration.

This afternoon Cuban-American families in Florida began receiving robo-calls designed to strike terror in their hearts. The following is the translated transcript.

Urgent: I am calling on behalf of John McCain to tell you that today at 1:28 this afternoon the independent news organization of Reuters reported that the Cuban dictator, Fidel Castro, has given his support to Democrat Barack Obama for being smarter and more sophisticated than John McCain. Just like Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, and Evo Morales - the brothers of Castro prefer Barack Obama. Don't give Castro what he wants. Go vote right now for John McCain and avoid establishing in the United States political policies like those of Cuba. There are only a few hours left today to vote for John McCain. This call has been paid for by McCain/Palin 2008.

The Reuters article quoted Castro as saying Obama was the smarter of the two candidates, but did not endorse either. Sometimes you just have to agree with an evil dictator. Could the 27 electoral votes from FLA have anything to do with this downright evil and nasty deception?

Pick up a bottle of Filthy Desperation, the cologne for mavericks! GOP Places Nasty Last Minute Robo-Calls to FLA Cuban-Americans http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/11/04/mccain-claims-obama-will-be-like-castro/ Facebook | Digg | Reddit | Stumble | Buzz it! | Email Article |
