Impeachment- The Agony and the Ecstasy

In this case, primarily the agony, I guess.  Yes, we are still in the midst of National Impeach Obama Week- the week with two weekends.  I thought I'd just bring you some of the photos graphically demonstrating the fountain of wrath at Obama that is bursting forth in this country.  Ready?  Here we go:








There you go- seven demonstrations, about 30 people (being very generous.)  Compare this to what just happened in Ferguson, where thousands turned out in a single place, without a shred of organizing in advance, despite being threatened by imminent violence from the police.  This would be so laughable if the incredibly small number of people who hold this crazy view didn't include a large part of the Republican members of the House of Representatives.

Well, I'm afraid that these malicious, hate-filled fools are going to get their way soon.  We'll see how it works out for them.

You just defined why your own supposition will be wrong. I could get more protesters to protest using live bait for fishing. Your last line makes sense except they will do what keeps them in office and if 55% of their voters don't agree with impeachment, it won't happen.

70 to 80 percent of voters do not agree with virtually the entire program the Republicans have been advancing the last several decades, but that doesn't stop them. They spend vast amounts of money in propaganda before every election to convince irresponsible voters that they are reasonable, well-meaning people, then in the immediate aftermath of those elections, they push through piggish legislation that no decent person would support. They have done this for election cycle after election cycle, and as long as the Republican-owned press in this country continues to give them cover, they will continue to do so.

That's what has always impressed me about Republicans. In fact, it's the only thing that impresses me about them. They fight. They never give up. They relentlessly fight to maintain their fucked up agenda against the country. No matter the odds. They know full well that 70 to 80 percent of the voters hate their program. They don't care. If it cost them an elected spot now and then, no problem. That happens in war. They fight on, and on. I can't imagine Democrats fighting like that. But god I wish we had some that had that kind of back bone.

I'd say that 70 to 80 percent of the PEOPLE disagree with republican programs. I bet the percentage of VOTERS that disagree is substantially lower.

The idiot Anonymous links to a video of people who wanted to impeach Bush.

Starting a war of aggression is a high crime of the most vicious sort, and was certainly grounds for impeachment. Obama, despite the constant disgusting fantasies of crazed right wingers, is a totally normal, middle of the road President who has done nothing to deserve impeachment, other than be a Democrat (and of course, being, well, you know what...)

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.

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
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

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 that worked so we
