GOP Scandals, yelling fire in an empty theater, toles cartoon

gop scandals

The kicker there is 225 weeks of it. Non stop. Republican scandaling [have I made a new word? By verbing a noun like “primaried”? Have I made a new word “verbing”?] has been going on so long for so little now that what was the end of the world last week, has settled down this week after polls show voters have had enough of it. There is no sex and no bag money so what?

Benghazi – A fight over the difference between the words “act of terror” and “terrorism”. In which 4 Americans were killed due primarily from Republican (Tea Party backed) cuts in security for the State Department. So where is the scandal? Oh yeah, the Black guy did it.

AP phone taps – National Security tracking a specific terrorist plan to act. Listening into the press comes from the Republican Party as they are the ones behind the Patriot Act which makes this all OKAY. And besides it is the GOP who wants to send reporters to jail for breaches of security.  So where is the scandal? Oh yeah, the Black guy did it.

IRS singling out TEA PARTY for 501c – The anti taxing organizations proliferated in this 2010 issue under the gun of Citizen’s United. The underfunded IRS (again the GOP with Tea Party supporting the cuts) took on the  new groups of tax exempt status of 501cs that year. Anyone from anywhere think the Tea Party is non political? And is working for social justice? Anyone?  And we all  hate the IRS no matter what they do.  And besides, they stopped doing it after a few months and got caught and admitted it. So where is the scandal? Oh yeah, the Black guy did it.
