none other than...JON STEWART!! My sides literally are hurting from laughing at this "interview." First time I watched it - I'm looking at a PUPPET, one that has become disentangled from his necessary wires in order to move - hilarious. While watching it the second time, I'm actually watching Michael Steele the Boob-In-Charge of the RNC!!
Just a mish-mash of all the "goings on", is all I have to offer at the moment. It is a cold, dank and rainy day, which does nothing to energize me whatsoever. So all I can set forth here is a culmination of "garbage" in the world arena (Ha!).
When watching this video, skip to the 8 minute mark (heaven knows the first eight minutes with Beck will send you to the loony bin), and listen to Bachmann's remarks about staying in politics vs. leaving that forum. WTF??? She is now MICHELLE OF ARC it would seem. Definitely she is a legend in her own delusional mind. I was hoping to find a clip of just the last part, like TPM ran, but they had no embed code, just to complicate my life I guess.
Bachmann handing the "torch of freedom" on to her children and foster children???? Sorry Michelle, but you are not the Statue of Liberty here. Your children and foster children have the right with or without your input. Hopefully, they are independently minded enough, to move past your thwarted and demented thinking and establish their own paths in life. And how's that going with your oldest son in one of Obama's indoctrination camps??? Oh, the brain cells are jumping.
I have been "loving" all the chatter about Rush Limbaugh and his venture to buy into the NFL team, the St. Louis Rams. From all that I have read, one NFL owner voiced his opposition quite loudly regarding this possible move by Limpdick.
The gooftard was one of a group of businessmen, who put a bid in for this purchase, which rankled those who are adamantly against this drug addicted, racist buffoon from having anything to do with this football franchise. Many NFL players remained silent on this matter, but there were a few who voiced their discontent with having this man in such a position.
His BIG mouth and racist comments have come back to KICK HIM IN THE ASS, it would appear. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have both spoken out against this move. I think the general makeup of pro football players is around the 60% black mark. And Limpdick made references in the past (I believe while an announcer for ESPN) that watching the game was like watching the "Crips and Bloods." That is only one of many racist remarks he has made in the past - so why would anyone think he should be allowed to enter the forum again - to run his foul mouth?
In an interview with NBC, he made the statement that he would "never cave" on this issue and he would still pursue this purchase. WELL........his business buddies apparently saw the downfall to his inclusion in their little group. He now does not have to "cave" at all....because they KICKED HIS ASS OUT OF THE GROUP!!! (Visualize my chubby body doing a happy dance!)
It would appear that CNN may have to replace Alex Castellanos as a Republican strategist on future programs. While arguing the rethug POV at various times against this health care reform, it would appear that he has been promoting/representing some of these large health insurance agencies. The last time I saw him on CNN, was when Rep. Grayson came on, after his "in your face" comments on the floor, "get sick, you die" placards and a definitely fed up with the status quo attitude. Castellanos tried to get in Grayson's face, but he lost on all counts. I'm sure since this has hit the news, CNN will definitely change his status, from strategist to lobbyist.
Jon Stewart may be all about "funny", but humor aside, this monologue hit the nail on the head. Minnesotans can be very proud of finally having Al Franken as a representative in the Senate. This issue of "gang rape" by private contractors needed to be addressed, and without Franken, we may have never heard some of these details. Sen. Jeff Sessions is a punk and as a woman - I'd like the opportunity to kick his ass. One image that pops into my head now, is....what if Liz Cheney were in this poor woman's position, and was gang raped. What would daddy say then? "Stiff upper lip baby, life goes on and you just gave a wonderful gift in the name of patriotism!" These war mongering, neo-cons have such a warped sense of "right and wrong." We know this because "waterboarding" is NOT torture - just ask any of these fukktards.
Go Jon Stewart and Al Franken. Keep up the fight for those who have a hard time being heard.
OK, I have to go out into the rain (yes, I may melt), and run a couple of errands. Not exactly what I desire for the day, but all tasks are imperative.
This entire issue the right wingnut fuckheads, is making over school children singing praises of the current president has become such a huge JOKE!! Hannity, Beck, Bachmann, Doosy...you name the fukktard, just love to throw out the buzz words of the moment - currently that would be "indoctrination."
Insisting that Obama is indoctrinating our youth, much like the Nazi's from decades past. OK - the brain you all have is going to waste, and most certainly being damaged beyond repair with your incessant LIES & distortions.
Those of us with some intelligence (unlike THEM), know how to separate reality from fantasy. I love the parts of this video, where the parents (those OD'ing on the kool-aid) are scared that their children are going to become.....what??? Black??? I honestly am not sure what they are afraid of, other than what Hannity and his ilk lead them to believe. And believe - they will! Not that any of their tripe can be backed up with facts - but they will argue till their dying breaths, quite possibly.
Jon Stewart lays it all quite nicely - as he so aptly does 99% of the time. Watch.
If one actually listens to the video of these school children, it only bolsters the fact that as Americans, we have to work together. I'm not sure that I like the inclusion of Obama's middle name - when in fact the right should be having a glee-fest over that one!!
We are three sickly people in the home today. Sniffles and low grade fevers and GRUMPY!! I don't think it is the flu - just a Fall cold. Just enough to keep thedaughter home from work, thegrandson home from school - - and my "alone" time - GONE!! Such is life. I'm also afraid I'm going to have to turn the furnace on, just to take the chill off. Outside temps are in the mid 50's, and it is 65 degrees in the house. I may jack that up a wee tad!
I'm going to heat up some soup, and maybe run and hide in my bedroom. So have a great day, and I may show up here.......later................
DON'T FORGET TO STOP BY: PAST THE VELVET ROPE (FRIDAY POSTINGS)
What can we say about Glen Beck? Or let me rephrase that, what GOOD things can we say about Glen Beck. I hated him on CNN, and I truly detest his warped and demented show at Faux. leave it to him to have someone on his show to further the rhetoric that Obama is NOT keeping us safe. I mean honestly, in five full months in office, Obama should have had the unemployment figures wayyyyy down, the Wall street debacle completely cleared up and on an even keel, peace negotiations with warring countries signed and delivered, Gay rights fully established, health care reform completed and total WORLD PEACE.
Realistically it took "W" six full years to fuck up this country in all ways - and the neocons and remaining rethugs believe that casting aspersions on our President, whilst more or less preferring life as it was say in September of 2008 (before the collapse) - makes this administration EVIL!
Watching Bill Kristol and Jon Stewart together in a less than "stuffed shirt" situation...is hilarious. I find Kristol's belief of McCain/Palin winning this election absurd...but eerier things have happened. Enjoy - I was totally tickled.
Born and raised in Parkersburg, WV - moved to Bellaire, Ohio in 1974. I am the proud mother of 3 and grandmother of 3. Opinionated of course and political follower. Blog as a therapeutic outlet - whether it makes sense or not. Enjoy.
