sharpton is not polished for sure, and down-right unwatchable at times,
but o'donnell is just such a sanctimonious prick that he's unwatchable
100% of the time.
where are they? sure, lots of wanna-believers got a chubby over obama's
speech last night, but at heart, obama is a right-wing corporatist and
only looks vaguely like a possible democrat because on one hand he's
black, and on the other hand, the mainstream of the republican party is
so far right that augusto pinochet looks like mayor bernie sanders in
comparison. fine, but where are the even vaguely liberal national
politicians, the ones a little less vague than sanders or kucinich or
franken?
who is out there advocating for a decrease in the social security
retirement age? or increasing the amount of the benefit in order to get
the u.s. out of the social pension payout basement? how about someone
advocating or even campaigning for office on extending medicare
eligibility? tax reform? since half the candidates are gonna lose
anyway, why don't some of these seemingly no-chance campaigners actually
run on some true-blue liberal policies, even in red states? tax
reform, not with the goal of making taxes more regressive, but instead
with the expressed and clear goal of making the tax code more
progressive and fair. that sounds like a pretty provocative campaign
issue, so why aren't some supposedly liberal money sources like soros or
buffet backing these kinds of campaigns in order to get these
progressive and liberal ideas into the national converstation in much
the same way the coors and the mellons and the olins did in the 70's,
saturating the culture with their insane and caustic conservative ideas
until they didn't seem so poisonous and dangerous anymore?
the simple answer is that no money men have a vested interest in
promoting this liberal agenda; their imperative is to maintain a
functional status quo so they support the reliably servile democrats
because they are much less twitchy than some of those gun nut
teabaggers. these ideas do have a huge audience though: most of the
population. it starts with getting the word out there. if no
candidates are running on union membership and labor rights as their
primary issue, then that issue gets no play anywhere. even though some
liberal candidates will lose, most at first, a concerted effort up and
down the political system will get these issues in the conversation and
will start to move the center of the debate away from the far-right
positions of barack obama and mitt romney and more in the direction of
the center-right positions of bernie sanders and dennis kucinich.
there are so many easy, self-evident liberal issues that would soon be
sure-fire winners if they had champions in the game: trade policy, labor
policy, tax policy, foreign policy and endless wars, national
healthcare, education, science. finding candidates for any and every
office in the country to run on these issues is a necessary and useful
first step.
cole calls shultz limbaugh on twitter, but they seem like they really
could be clones. both are former rock ribbed republicans. both come
from shitty red states. both can't help but fluff and fluff and fluff.
switched at birth? twins? clones? we may never know the answer to
these questions, but tune in next time for another exciting episode of bullshit or not?
senior obama fluffer ed shultz is fluffing hard tonight; he can't help
it. he thinks obama gave it all to the teabaggers, but he's got a
raging boehner anyway. big ed just can't quit obama.
this american
never got justice. why would someone who was a married man and elected
to national office want her dead? perhaps her death was a hit, and the
payment to the hitman was shitty television show.
country joe 'dead intern' scarborough has a rockin new anti-war
song now, but when's he gonna do an epic
dead intern song?
over at balloon juice
the obama fluffers are pushing each other out of the way to get their
own turn to fluff not only obama, but their own demi-god obama fluffer
and former rockribbed republican john cole. oh my they loves them some obama, but there are some scary people out there who don't wanna get in on the fluffin', and they hate them lots and call 'em names.
they can only undermine the fiscal health of the social security program
as a whole, and will do nothing to help the middle class in the long
term once, again, if obama is not smart enough to know this, he has no
business being president.
remember when obama was elected with an historic mandate? now he's
grovelling before john boehner and mitch mcconnell for fetid right-wing
scraps.
disgusting toady. and if obama had been a decent president or a decent
man, he woulda' had everyone from his administration stay off fox news
100% from day one and do absolutely nothing to validate those treasonous
felons and liars. probably just that 'fuck them' attitude towards fox
would have won him re-election. nice going, dipshit.
because they're not nearly as stupid as we are. they are happy to sell
hyundai's to idiots, but they are not dumb enough to let those idiots
compete in their home market. protectionism works for workers and
governments. free-trade works for multi-national corporations.
why not? at least he's got a tiny bit of personality and is willing to
call the teabagging sons of bitches sons of bitches. better than
obama's done.
seriously, he could not suck any worse. these cuts are only going to
hurt both the economy and the people who count on this stuff, whether
it's a social program or a goverment-related job. why pay for this
stuff? interest rates are low low low. get the folks back to work and
the deficit problem goes bye bye! either barack obama is too fucking
stupid to know this, or he is such a ginormous right-wing asshole!
let's all be strict constructionists like ron paul and bring the postal
service back under the control of the federal government. fuck revenue,
fuck profits, fuck value-added services. let's get some happy civil
servants getting paid fair wages to deliver the fucking mail to every
fucking address in the fucking country every fucking day and not worry
about the rest of the bullshit. if anything is a public good, it's the
mail. we don't have private armies, so--wait, what? well, we shouldn't
have a private postal service. ronald reagan really did suck huge
moose cock.
his speeches were always bullshit, but now they're so vile that maybe he
should just shut the fuck up, resign and let biden play out the string.
and that vile cretin and closet queen lindsey graham stands up to cheer
this bastard on! this one-term asshole will easily go down as one of
the worst democratic presidents of all time, or since clinton at least.
fuck him.
social security zombie lie edition. that moon-faced assassin of
intelligence said today that in the beginning social security on paid a
few bucks to the few people who lived to be older than 65 but now it
pays lots more because most people live past 65. this is, of course, bullshit,
and if matthews is too fucking stupid to know that, then get him off
the fucking tee vee once and for all. people lived way past 65 if they
didn't die when they were children. duh, matthews. retard.
why why why??? this guy is a fucking moron. doctor or not, he's too
stupid to be believed, too stupid to be heard and too stupid to be on
fucking television talking about shit that actually matters! if he
wants to visit whores with david vitter or strip clubs with rick perry's
staff, that's fine. who cares? but keep these bugfuck crazy morons
off the godsdamned media when we have real frakking problems in this
frakking country!
that's the major problem with his show. he's just too fucking dumb. at
least glenn beck was so amazingly insane that you could derive some
sick pleasure from watching him. with hannity, though, it's boring
because he's too dim to add any verve to his bland fluffing of
republican talking points.
