QUOTE OF THE DAY: 
GLENN BECK AT CPAC 2010:
‘Hello, my name is the Republican Party, and I’ve got a problem. I’m addicted to spending and big government…I’m addicted to spending and I just don’t want to spend today.’

"If by a “Liberal” they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a “Liberal,” then I’m proud to say I’m a “Liberal.” ~ John F. Kennedy, 1960

John McCain is a piece of shit. For him to say just a few years ago that if the military leaders approached him and told him it’s time to repeal Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell, he would gladly work to do it. Fast forward to today and we see John McCain in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing with the military leaders who tell him it’s time to repeal this awful piece of crap, and what does he do? He doesn’t listen to them! He decides instead to spew the right wing fringe rhetoric that gay soldiers put our nation at risk.
My father was a tank Sargent in the U.S. Army in the late 50’s, early 60’s. To this day he speaks lovingly (seriously! He does!) of his soldiers and likes to compare them to the characters on Welcome Back Kotter, meaning, they came from all different walks of life and there were a couple of “Horseshacks”, you know, a few soldiers who might have been gay or not, but it didn’t matter to anyone, because as soldiers they’re there for each other and worrying about something as stupid as that is not what makes a good soldier! He’s been friends with some of these soldiers for over 50 years now!
Dad grew up extremely poor in Portland, Maine (the house he lived in as a child is now a big parking lot on the corner of Congress & Franklin Streets!) and besides his sister Nellie (my Aunt Nell whom I’ve talked about before on my blog! Love her!) being 10 years older than him and making sure my father got what he needed throughout his childhood, his Uncle Wayne was also the person who made the biggest impact in his life! Uncle Wayne was gay. He was openly gay too and no one in the family cared one iota. Wayne was the male figure in my Dad’s life for years, because my Nana and Grampy were alcoholics who weren’t always there for him, and when Uncle Wayne died a few years ago all my father could talk about is how wonderful this man was to him.
My Dad was and is a great soldier and man while John McCain is a horrible soldier and person. He’s self-centered, unappreciative, a sucky soldier, and downright wrong about the gays and lesbians who have always been in our military doing a fine job and who still are! McCain is a piece of shit. The End. I would say that maybe it’s time for him to listen to his daughter and wife about being a better person, but now that he’s aligned himself with the right wing religious fringe in our country and being fed by them, he most likely hates women too and won’t listen. What an ass!
Too funny! Come to find out: JOHN MCCAIN HIMSELF ACTUALLY REFUSED TO GIVE ANOTHER SENATOR (who was speaking out against George Bush’s atrocious war!) ADDITIONAL TIME ON THE FLOOR TO SPEAK.
TPMMuckraker has the video (seen on Chris Matthew’s Hardball earlier too):
Love it. McCrazy is still banging rocks together and screaming at trees!
Do any republicans tell the truth? Doesn’t appear so. If you know of a truthful republican, can you let me know?
Geeeeeee, now this is a little interesting isn’t it? So far, George Bush’s people haven’t responded to this yet. Wonder why they haven’t? My first thought was the Nazis gave the Rothschild artwork they stole to Preston Bush who brought it back to America after he had his fun funding the Nazis. Once home, he gave the artworks before he died to his son George H.W. Bush who in turn donated the stolen artwork to SMU (endowed by oilman Algur Hurtle Meadows) with the hopes someday his son George W. Bush would be president and could have his presidential library there!
Am I close? Hey, we didn’t call him “Bushitler” for nothing!
No wonder George W. didn’t call for an investigation into the September 2008 run on the banks where a half trillion dollars was taken out of the money markets in an hour and a half. Why didn’t he? Well, if we all remember correctly Lynn de Forrester Rothschild was bullshit that Hillary Clinton was out of the presidential race and Barack Obama was in. She then took her anger to the airwaves and said out loud that she would be voting for John McCain in retaliation. Yep, and then just like the Rothschild’s involvement in the first Great Depression the next thing we know there is almost a trillion dollars stolen in less than 2 hours which causes George Bush to come out and say, “We’re gonna bailout the banks now! How bout that Federal Reserve that the Rothschilds invest in? We love them all! Thank you and good night!’.
You can read all about it over on Dirigo Blue (formerly Turn Maine Blue). How come the American Taliban (the republic party of America) never bitched about this? I thought they hated the idea of single payer, the public option, or doing anything nice to help those individuals who need it? Huh. Oh wait! George is a white republican. Nevermind. The End.
It’s gotta suck for the Birther Wingers. They have no evidence to back up their claims and time and again they have to admit that President Obama is a citizen of the United States because of it.
Have the Birthers ever thought of the fact that the Secret Service & the FBI have already done background checks on President Obama (and John McCain who was born in Panama!) during last year’s presidential campaign? Nope! Too much truth & facts for their cannonball heads to absorb! Spit.
I’m taking a little mini-vacation this weekend as you can tell. I had a paid day off on Friday (thank you Friday customer!) and have been in vacation mode ever since. My son and I were going to go tent camping for the weekend, but decided not to. Instead, we used the good weather to get some much needed work done around the house. Got a ton done! The garage is now organized (huge project that I wanted to get done before school started)! Went to the Norway Arts Festival yesterday and helped with our county Democrats booth. Our focus was on Obama’s health care plan and the public option. It was a great day and lots of people who came to our booth pointed out how the right wingers of America are lying profusely about Obama because they have nothing to use against him. If you’re confused over health care you can thank a neocon! So, if you think Americans are not paying attention and you think the right wingers are gaining traction in the polls, think again. They’re not. Americans smartened their asses up under the 8 years of George Bush and they still don’t trust what the wingers have to say. Good times.
Speaking of the insane right wing, I found the following quote in an article that came to me via Google Alerts:
Some tea party participants diverged from the issue of health care, proclaiming themselves to be pro gun rights and against gay marriage. San Jose police officers arrived on horse to monitor the situation when at least one tea party member talked about shooting the peaceful single payer advocates.
Nice huh? They talked about shooting the peaceful protesters! The next time someone tells you that the Teabaggers are peaceful Americans who aren’t right wing extremists, but are all about change, just laugh out loud. The Teabaggers are the same people who supported John McCain & Sarah Palin in the last election and who are the dividers, the haters, the liars, and who are just plain racist to their core. Here’s some of them in action last year in case you forgot what they were all about….
And more of these ‘good Americans’…
Hope you all are having a great weekend!
I knew it. I’ve said for years that if American troops were to leave Iraq, the Iraqis would step aside and let them go without interfering. Of course, the right wing neocons of America said that would never happen! They told us that Iraq would crumble into a heap of dung and would be lost without us, because the Iraqis loved having Americans in their country occupying it!
Dumbasses.
From Think Progress…the Iraqis are lighting off fireworks & celebrating:
U.S. forces handed over formal control of Iraq’s major cities today (it is already Tuesday in Iraq), “a defining step toward ending the U.S. combat role in the country.” In celebration, Iraqis launched fireworks and “thousands attended a party in a park [in Baghdad] where singers performed patriotic songs. … Loudspeakers at police stations and military checkpoints played recordings of similar tunes throughout the day, as Iraqi military vehicles decorated with flowers and national flags patrolled the capital.” Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, who had called the withdrawal a “great victory,” declared June 30 a public holiday.
John McCain told us last year that he knew better than the Iraqis on what they wanted….

Gov Sanford isn’t the only republican governor trying to hide his sexual indiscretions;
Judge rules governor must hand over phone records
Gov. Jim Gibbons’ phone records will be handed over to the woman who accused him of assault in the run-up to the 2006 gubernatorial election, a federal judge ruled this week.
Federal magistrate judge Peggy Leen rejected Gibbons [of Nevada] request for a protective order preventing Chrissy Mazzeo from obtaining his phone records.
Her attorney earlier had subpoenaed the phone records from the Clark County district attorney’s office.
The agency kept Gibbons’ phone records and other documents in connection with a 2006 police investigation into Mazzeo’s claims that Gibbons assaulted her in a parking garage after a night of drinking. Leen ordered the records be turned over to Mazzeo by July 3.
The governor of the state made famous in part for its quick, private divorces is now embroiled in a breakup so tawdry, so publicly spectacular and so potentially grueling that how it plays out could have implications from Carson City to the White House.
Gov. Jim Gibbons of Nevada, a first-term Republican, had hoped to minimize the publicity surrounding his divorce from Dawn, his wife of 22 years, by convincing a Reno judge to seal the records per a state law that allows either party to do so.
What he may not have expected was that Mrs. Gibbons, 54, would file her own 33-page motion to draw attention to longstanding rumors: that she believes the governor is having an extramarital relationship with the wife of a Reno podiatrist.

If you ask a republican if they think President Obama is doing a good job dealing with the uprising in Iran (which appears to be over today according to Richard Engel this morning on the Morning Joe), they’ll say, “No way! He’s not talked about it, he’s not using an iron fist, and he obviously doesn’t care about anyone but himself!”.
*shaking head*
Those of us who listen to President Obama without our fingers in our ears knows that none of what the republicans are saying is true and what is true is….HE’S BEEN USING DIPLOMACY RIGHT FROM THE START! Yeah, yeah, and has acknowledged that the Iranians are expressing their freedoms and he has condemned the Mullah’s crackdown right from the start! Rachel Maddow explains further…
By the way, John McCain was asked which side he thought President Obama was on and McCain didn’t know the answer to the question. Oh wait! Johnny McCrazy also bangs rocks together and screams at trees in the park! Nevermind. McCain is an old idiot who needs to lose his Senate seat at some point because he is a typical republican who listens with his fingers in his ears! The End.

John McCain (and the rest of the right wing knuckle draggers I may add!) wants President Obama to start threatening Iran, so he (and they!) can say, “See? Obama is dangerous for our country and the world! Look at how many people are dying in Iran because of him and his big bad meanie cowboy stance!!! He’s overseeing his own personal genocide for crying out loud while thousands are dying!!!!! Gawd help us!”.
By the way…have you noticed how the right wingers think that if they use what us liberals said about George Bush towards President Obama it will work, stick, and people will believe that the republicans have the power now? LOL! *shaking head* What a bunch of freaks that make up the repelican party today, huh? Incredible.
