Provisional Ruling Wingnut

From Album4
And he got a better deal than your run-of-the-mill tin cup despot in the end...$8 million for six days. Nice work if you can steal it.

Santa's packing more than coal for the naughty kids this year...more seriously, Happy Holidays, everyone.

What an awful tragedy in Connecticut...

Old Man Throws Tantrum, Gets Way

From Album4
In a weird way this is almost -- emphasis on almost -- picking on McCain since it's the whole goddamned party that's been on a non-stop hissy fit since...really, since the 2000 election...

Number One In The Nation

From Album4
As least popular Senator, that is. And with stunts like this, it's easy to see why the "title" belongs to Minority Leader and Bert the Turtle Doppelganger Mitch McConnell.

Another Mittbot Sighting

But I'm thinking the "original" picture might have looked more like this:

If The Tin Foil Hat Fits...

From Album4
Rick Santorum joins World Nut Daily, where I'm sure he'll wax grandiloquent about everything from the UN cabal to fluoridation of water to the radio people to lord knows what...

I Think Senator Reid Speaks For All Of Us

From Album4
"I don't understand [John Boehner's] brain." Well put, Senator.

John Boehner -- the Fredo Corleone of House Speakers.

Well, Maybe We'll Get Used to Inferno Earth

Or maybe we won't... watch the video if you haven't already seen it...and if you want to consider the very serious consequences...

Tis the season edition.

And because I saw this before remembering it was Friday...they're going to let Boehner screw with health care?
From Album4
Jesus H. Christ.

No link, but was channel surfing earlier and came across Boehner breaking down in tears while giving an award to...Arnold Palmer. Can this guy talk for five minutes without bawling?

Pointillism edition...sorry to recycle again (from last spring), but it's been another long week, I need to cook dinner...and poor Tigger's limping a bit, which has me keeping a close watch for now...here's hoping it goes away.

Have a good weekend.

The Ghost Of Wingnut Past

From Album4
Just in time for the holidays, a reminder that the message stays the same, regardless of who's delivering it...

Not exactly News...

From Album4
...but right on cue, the would-be Confederates are crawling out of the woodwork...but when Rick Perry and Erick Erickson are the voices of reason...

Grover's Lament

From Album4
Poopy head? I suppose we'll soon be hearing about Grover's refusal to trade corn chips for pudding cups in the school lunchroom.

Friday Cat Blogging With Photoshop

From Album4
Not going to Applebee's edition.

Recycled from last August, this time in "honor" of Applebee's CEO pitching a big old hissy fit about Obamacare.

To tell you the truth, I don't know if I've ever eaten there. And that's no disrespect for the thousands of people doing their best to make a living by working there.

But it is a statement to Mr. Master of the Universe/CEO -- don't think you're too big to fail, because you aren't...and Obamacare won't be the cause.

Have a good weekend.

Atlas Had A Sad

Pathetic -- makes you wonder where his baby food will come from once he goes full Galt.

Election Day Cat Blogging With Photoshop

From Album4
We voted edition. Actually had Obama volunteers knock on my door asking if I'd voted and encouraging me to do so. Good for them.

Am taking the rest of the day off to watch Inside Job on Vimeo, then will follow the returns like everyone else. I still think Obama wins it despite the disgusting efforts by wingnuts to suppress the vote.

There's got to be a way to make voter registration universal...which would infuriate them. Good, I say.

Catch you tomorrow.

Friday Cat Blogging With Photoshop

From Album4
GOTV edition.

Otherwise, great Tumblr site here, NOLA to New York, and you've probably seen this Onion article -- satire outperforms "real" news. To which I'll only add this as my personal .000002 cents worth: whether global warming specifically caused this storm isn't really the issue. The issue is that global warming WILL cause storms like this...and we'll have to deal with them, either as a nation, or by ourselves. Personally, I prefer the national approach where we all work together, and hope the East Coast recovers as quickly as possible...and I'll gladly donate, take action, or even be taxed to help that happen. We're still one country.

Have a good weekend.

Facts Be Damned, Says Mitch The Turtle

From Album4
Timothy Noah:
The New York Times reports that on September 28 the Library of Congress's nonpartisan Congressional Research Service withdrew, under pressure from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R.-Ky., and other Senate Republicans, a widely-circulated study concluding that since 1945 tax cuts have had no measurable impact on economic growth.

Wednesday, October 31, 2012

OK, Maybe It WAS A Sign

From Album4
Storms are God's wrath? I can just as easily claim it's God's way of saying, "Hey, denying global warming is something strictly for idiots. Oh, and do you REALLY want to vote next Tuesday for a return to the days of Heckuva Job Brownie and Mission Accomplished?"

Just saying.

Monday, October 29, 2012

No, It's Not "God's Judgment"

From Album4
I forget where I saw the list of wingnut twit-tweets, but goddamnit, no pun intended, divine wrath doesn't drive natural disasters.

How we deal with them, though, is something that a just deity would consider in determining our fate...just saying.

Gift From God, You Say?

From Album4
At least Sharron Angle tried, however clumsily, to acknowledge that rape isn't a gift.

Jesus, the wingnuts are somehow managing to become even more batshit insane...
