One or the other of these lunatics will soon be the Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. That’s the place where they decide what to do about the environment in Republican terms. You know oil spills, treating BP unfairly, shooting down wolves from airplanes, drilling for oil in city parks, natural gas burning out of your sink faucet and of course keeping our air and water as dirty as they can get away with. The Republican criteria for that is if no children die spontaneously from their anti-environmental laws then things are fine.
This is what America voted for a few weeks ago. Just two examples of real serious morons running the show. It gets worse. New Republican Chairman Darrell Issa says he will investigate 100 White House Democrat just in his next year alone. Republicans are now refusing to even talk with or have dinner with the President of the United States. They have pledged to disband earmarks and the refuse stimulus plans which will increase unemployment WHILE they refuse to extend unemployment benefits. And of course at the top of their list is to deny health insurance to those out of work. Some Southern states are now planning to opt of Medicaid – no help for sick if you are poor or out of a job WHILE exempting the wealthy from tax increases in a time of war, adding another trillion or so to the debt. Oops, almost forgot about them removing incentives for alternate forms of energy making us even more dependent on Middle East oil and forever war.
That’s what Americans voted for in the Great White Wave Election of 2010, and that is exactly what Americans deserve. We deserve President Sarah Palin sitting in the White House waiting for the Rapture while her fat slutty daughter cha-chas through the West Wing dropping illegitimate babies in the halls.
Democrats! Mr President, TAKE OFF THE PINK TUTUS!
