Ambinder nails the "Party of...uh...No?"

Ambinder nails it:

Even while some of Obama's signature policies are viewed with healthy skepticism, Republicans are still splashing around in a fetid wading pool.

Ooo, snap!

The last feckin' thing I need...

...while traveling, is to have to watch/listen to the CNN-Live coverage of AIG executives (a bunch of porcine wallowing thieves) testify to Congress (more porcine wallowing thieves) about why they got to $4-6 million bonuses while taking hundreds of millions from US.

Time to cleanse the ears, and who better than the saintly Micho Russell?

Bush Liberry faces uphill battle

SMU Provost and Regents fought to get the Bush II Library. Now they're having trouble raising funds for a "library" and think-tank intended to whitewash the career of the most incompetent, criminal, and hated President in the past 100 years?

Imagine that.

Bush Faces Tough Time Raising Library Funds

Gangsters, not patriots

Those who are bombing and killing British soldiers in Ulster in order to try to arrest the peace process:

They profit from suffering, and they know that peace leaves them no room.

They're gangsters, not patriots.

Another hater loses his tax-free sinecure...

Mayor who sent White House watermelon e-mail resigns:

Los Alamitos, CA Mayor Dean Grose has announced that he will be stepping
down from his position on March 2, after sending an “e-mail picture depicting
the White House lawn planted with watermelons under the title ‘No Easter egg
hunt this year.’” One recipient, local businesswoman and community volunteer
Keyanus Price, who is also African-American, said that she was “horrified” when
she received the e-mail on Sunday, and replied, “Not all black people like
watermelon… you should know better than that.” Grose wrote back, “The way things are today, you gotta laugh every now and then. I wanna see the coloring
contests.” Grose has since apologized, saying the picture was never meant to
offend anyone “from the standpoint of the African-American race.”

No, of course not.

One less hater with a tax-free parachute:

James Dobson resigns as Focus on the Family chairman:

Today, James Dobson told Focus on the Family’s 950 employees that he was
stepping down is chairman of the organization he founded more than three decades
ago. The move is part of “a succession plan” to relinquish control over the
group. Dobson will, however, “continue to host Focus on the Family’s flagship
radio program, write a monthly newsletter and speak out on moral issues.” The
group has been suffering from financial troubles after spending $600,000 to
defeat marriage equality in California, recently laying off approximately 150
staffers.

He's a hater. But at least he's lost that platform.

Obstructionist Republican glee

To the House and Senate Republicans who think they can once again hornswoggle the electorate into voting against their own best interests, who think they can in fact persuade working-class folks to finance the multi-millionaire golden parachutes of their K Street lobbyist partners in crime, we say this:

Bring it, you mothers:



Just fucking bring it, and see how you and your party and your beyond-corrupt special interests go down in flames. You want "class war"? We'll give you class war:

We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing-grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender.

You think you can take this man down, amid the massive political capital that his flat stone leadership has garnered him? So be it: keep thinking that.

Game on, you motherfuckers.
