What none of them can articulate on any level above a three year old (Hey kids - No offense!) is just what their simple-minded and vacant jelly bean arguments prove. They don’t even take the trouble to prove any evidence of mental processes. And their ignorance of even a simple understanding off “how things work” not only sticks out like a boehner in the broken lives, dead bodies, and financial ruin of their “policies”, but in addition, just like green plastic hay, they just don’t get it. I mean how stupid do you have to be to think that “Go Daddy” is a request from your father’s urologist? <BR/><BR/>Lately, there’s been some spouting off from some miserably stupid turds running for the GOP presidential nomination about their disbelief in evolution and why they have to go to bed at 8:30. I would be more apt to believe that the origins of all life could conceivably blossom from the crankcase of an abandoned ’60 Ford Edsel, the cutting edge of a ten year old electric can opener in the back of a Wendy’s, or, given enough heat and pressure, a discarded pack of pink marshmallow peeps before they banned the use of red #16.<BR/><BR/>What is needed in desperate times like these besides a sense of humor, nose held thusly? Drag there seemingly lifeless puppet drugged bodies around the side of the nearest shitter with the “sanitized for your protection” paper seal still intact, (the seal could never master the balancing of the beach ball on his nose, so therefore could never get stable employment as a product icon for the more successful multinational corporations in the area that sprang up like weeds in your flooded carpet), immerse them in a tub of free courtesy ice (No filling up ice chests please!) whilst they are sound asleep and remove all vital organs and pianos to be sold on the chartreuse market for a mere pittance, in order to further fuel their burgeoning horse substance “problem” (not really a problem – nobody would cry if you rubbed liniment on their naughty bits, now that you ask). Sounds like a fitting way to send them off on something they would truly enjoy: fame, fortune, minor slush fund corruption, senate committee indictments, disgrace, degradation, and a trailer down by the river. And their mothers would be so glad to hear they're moving with a better crowd. Hell, just for fun, do a character search on your local internets for the closest conservative pinhead in your neighborhood and you're bound to find their religious affiliation with Negative Land, their intimate associations with Billy "Fuck" Hargis and his Arizona clan, as the Maltmen will loom large in the House un-American Activities Committee hearings- "Have you ever been a member of the following....", and the worst of it? They'll pull their fishing licenses for indiscriminate use of Olive Potzkies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11753985.post-77221618727994731342007-05-07T18:56:00.000-05:002007-05-07T18:56:00.000-05:00Great catch, Marc.

Evangelical preachers have declared him 'saved' so his pecadillos are ignored; and he has paid the megachurches back with federal money and jobs for Regents University "Law School" graduates - 150 in the Department of Justice alone. His whoring, drinking, drugging - all 'past', ignored, the "prodigal son" has paid off handsomely, where it counts.

As recently as last year, I read yet again that Al Gore claimed to have "invented the Internet." This was in a review of the film "An Inconvenient Truth." I sent e-mails taking the critic to task on this, and including the exact quote. He rather snottily admitted that Gore never used those words, but despite repeated tries, I couldn't persuade this critic to write a correction. He was clearly wrong, but kept stonewalling.<BR/>Then there's the one about Clinton in which he's supposed to have held up air traffic at a West Coast airport while he got his hair cut aboard Air Force One. That was thoroughly debunked, but most media didn't acknowlege that, and so millions of people still believe it.<BR/>These things become like right-wing urban legends that just keep circulating.Manifesto Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06521151220297061304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11753985.post-49453996126922361152007-05-07T00:21:00.000-05:002007-05-07T00:21:00.000-05:00Speaking of right-wing talking points that never d...Speaking of right-wing talking points that never die, Rush Limbaugh claimed in 1992 that even if the polar ice caps melted, it'd have no impact on the world's sea levels because "if you have a glass of water with ice cubes in it, as the ice melts, it simply turns to liquid and the water level in the glass remains the same."<BR/>Pretty idiotic stuff that (as Al Franken pointed out) ignores the fact that most of the world's ice is on land and that Antarctica is a continent, not an ice cube.<BR/>If the ice cap melted, the sea level around the world would rise catastrophically, as Franken points out.<BR/>If there was any justice in this world, Limbaugh would be so humiliated by this idiocy that he'd resign in shame. In reality, his listeners to this day remain blissfully unaware of their own idiocy.<BR/>In fact, I heard this story peddled AGAIN recently on right-wing radio. These people indeed live off in their own little hermetically sealed world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
