Oh, the poor RWNJ’s out there must feel their worlds crumbling around them; Their venom-filled, hate-mongering, freedom-loathing little worlds…

Comment on Dep’t. of Duh: The Bush tax cuts did not work by Sally

Sally — Thu, 20 Jun 2013 03:43:00 +0000

It IS working very well for the already rich, the CEOs, the GOP Governor’s donors, the Kochs, ALEC…do you mean that isn’t most of us? And here I thought the GOP was doing what was best for the voters they insist really really agree with their policies, if only they could explain them better. yeah, good luck with that, GOP.

Comment on Video- Fox Cuts Away From Obama’s Berlin Speech To Cover Tea Party Protests by Sally

Sally — Thu, 20 Jun 2013 03:41:00 +0000

Oh, you mean the Glenn Beck, Bachmann, Cruz hatefest that was going to draw 100,000 Tea Party faithful? Seems the Koch bus is running on fumes; I read 5000 attended, and that was a generous count. But yeah, the Tea Party shouting about guns and their rights and lower taxes are way more important than the President abroad. Good God, Fox is awful for this nation.

You’re so right, Frances… Given the details of this tragedy, I cannot believe this man is still technically part of the Detroit Police force…

Kind of you to say. I’m surrounded by two amazingly talented women.

Gross negligance, reckless, careless, senseless. Another loss of innocent life.

Thank you, Dodger. Despite that one tiny nit to pick, I enjoyed your piece a great deal. See you around Ebbets Field.

Thanks for the response, I enjoyed your comments. I tried to see if there was a Carly Marx on Twitter, but all seemed to be locked accounts. Thanks again.

Sunny, Older and Linda, thanks so much for the welcome. My posts will start running today on a regular basis. I hope they capture your emotions as well as add an occasion smile. Yesterday’s quick breaking story about fetusterbation, called “Is This Man Sane” is a good example of my take on congressional insanity. You might check it out if you missed it. Once again, thanks for the welcome.

I do understand what you’re saying. What I’m saying is that in promoting the truth, it’s a bad idea to ever concede a lie. I think you’ll agree that there is more than ample evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii. End of argument. If Birthers don’t believe that, why should they believe that Ann Dunham was an American citizen — or that Ann Dunham was his real mother? Those lies are no sillier or less believable than a Kenyan birth.

Comment on VIDEO– Va. Gov. “Ultrasound” McDonnell (R) charged taxpayers for dog vitamins & personal hygiene items like, um, enemas by Steel Cowboy

Steel Cowboy — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 11:57:00 +0000

Can someone point out the Fiscal Conservatism here? These bozos lie as easy as breathing, have no moral compass or character. All this while we cut Meals on Wheels for Seniors, Pre K, SNAP, Bust the Unions, pass Right to Work, Voter Suppression. Need I go on? They waste 55 million attempting to repeal the ACA 37 times, which the Supreme Court says is the law of the land. They waste millions on hearings about Benghazi, the IRS, the NSA knowing full well that there is no scandal. Push Abortion bills that have NO chance at passing, or being signed into law. Legislative days are finite, and they are wasting precious time with BS while Americans still need jobs.

Anyone who still deals with B of A needs their head examined. Boycott these Banksters and push @Eric Holder to prosecute them for FRAUD!

Proof that the GOP will create it’s own science to make sense of their rigid, oppressive world. I’ll believe that neonates masteurbate in the womb when I believe that Adam & Eve rode Dinosaurs.

The only thing that trickled down was abject poverty for half the country, while the 1% made astronomical gains. wealth of rich went up 275%.

Comment on Audio- Rush Limbaugh: Conservatives Don’t Suppress The Black Vote, Restrict Women’s Choice, Or Lie by Steel Cowboy

Steel Cowboy — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 11:31:00 +0000

Just saying that Republicans don’t lie is a lie! “POTUS born in Kenya, POTUS a Socialist, sending Jeep to China, Stole from medicare, said “You didn’t build that”, Banghazi was a scandal, IRS was a scandal, NSA-a scandal. Is coming to take our guns, Fast and Furious Obama’s fault when W initiated it, Solyndra Obama’s fault when W initiated it.
Give me a break!
