Happy Dems are Wrong

I have seen, on a number of liberal websites in the last few days, polls showing a lot of voter unhappiness with the corrupt governors they elected in Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan, Florida and other States.  Everyone seems to be very excited about these poll results.

Well, sorry to bum you out, guys, but these polls mean exactly nothing.  There is only one day that voter opinions make a bit of difference, and that is election day.  Republicans spend vast amounts of money during the campaigns to sucker the American people into believing, for a few days or weeks, that it's a good idea to let Republicans run the country.  Once the election is over, the Republicans do not give one God damn about the opinions of the American people; they're too busy serving the ones who paid to put them in office.  Don't you worry, in 2012, after the expenditure of a few billion corporate dollars, Americans will suddenly remember how much they like the party that spent the last two years stabbing them in the back.

You are absolutely correct. But we must hold onto our slender hopes in order to keep our slashed wrists from staining the bathtub.

Well, we have to keep working, that's for sure, or we are screwed. But it doesn't do any good to be like Obama and Harry Reid and keep pretending that the Republicans are going to play fair with the American people.

It has become apparent to me that the Dems actually prefer being in the minority. It enables them to evade accountability while they are able to serve their corporate masters by letting just enough of their members vote with Republcans. The party needs to purge their Right Wing element before they all become bought and paid for puppets of the Plutocrats.

"There is only one day that voter opinions make a bit of difference, and that is election day."

And that is exactly why people need to get out and vote, period.

You know, there are times I'd like to throw all the Democrats out in the street...and then, to paraphrase Henry Hathaway in Jesse James, shoot them like the dogs they are.

I'm seeing report after report on today's news about the jobs numbers, about how the economy is better than it has been in at least 4 years - but are Obama and the Democrats bombarding the public with the message of "this IS the stimulus effect?" Are they attacking the conservative motherf**kers who are trying to slash aid to the poor and middle class and throw us back into another recession, if not a full on depression?

These spineless assholes don't even know how to take credit for something good that they've done.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination ...

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go...
