I may not have always agreed with you, but you were a fine Senator and a better drunkard.

Thom Hartmann on the healthcare debate: Just let everyone buy into Medicare. Congressman Barney Frank of Massachusetts, bringing the sexy back to the healthcare debate: See, when confronted with the insane and the stupid, the appropriate response is not reason, it’s derision. The second that the Republican party and their stooges like the crazy bint in the video decide that they want to put on their adult pants and sit at the big – people table then we can have a debate. Until then, they can fuck right off.
It occurs to me that it’s been a while since I went on a political toot, and there may be new people here who thought that this pointless exercise in self-indulgence was all Apple, all the time. Sorry, it ain’t. If that’s a problem, I suggest unsubscribing. As usual, The Rude Pundit nails it. Health care is a civil right, and Progressives need to treat it as such. Additionally, the Democrats need to grow a pair and realize that we voted them a mega – majority for a fucking reason. From the article: Mostly, though, there’s only one real solution: Democrats have to have the guts to tell Republicans that they’re no longer part of the process. They have not negotiated in good faith and they’re not gonna vote for shit, no matter how watered down. It’s gotta be “Fuck off, fuckers” and bar the door and pass what needs passing. Presented, for your moral outrage, one Antonin Scalia, who is of the opinion that innocence is no barrier to imposing the death penalty. There is so much to be said about this topic. but I have neither the time nor the available blood pressure. I will, however offer these brief thoughts: This is the true face of the conservative movement in America. It’s not the deluded and delusional tools who answer Fox News’ call to disrupt healthcare town halls. It’s not the closet racists who are fast running out of slurs to throw at President Obama, and who seethe in frustration at the fact that a nigger is in the White House. It’s not even the corporate douchebags who are willing to play nice with anyone as long as the profits keep rolling in. All these are either tools or opportunists. The true face of American conservative thought are men like Antonin Scalia. Men who are so absolutely amoral, that to call them “evil” is an insult to true evil. These are men who are so morally bankrupt, so locked into their psychotic fear of losing status and power that they are essentially sociopaths. These men cannot be reasoned Continue reading Death Panels and Advocate Judges I write a lot about entitlement issues here. The way that I see it, one of the primary driving forces behind much of the ills of our society is the overwhelming sense of entitlement that most people seem to have. We want things done our way, and we want them delivered now gods damn it! We seem to have forgotten the old axiom, “Cheap, Perfect or Fast; pick two.” Which leads me to an odd little piece that I picked up via The Consumerist (I’ll link to them after I’ve forgiven them for being part of the Gawker Family of Suck). The blog post in question is titled Hey Burger King, you’re getting timed for a reason! from the Selfish Mom blog. Yes, dear readers, I’m taking on the mommy – bloggers again. I only pray to Lord Satan that I emerge with my testicles intact. The gist of this little missive, charmingly filed under the category of “How To Piss Me Off,” is the realization by the author, Amy, that Burger King employees have been gaming the timer system by having drive – though customers back up and pull forward to reset the timer. The shock, the Continue reading Gaming the System
No, sadly, I didn’t go to a town hall meeting; try and contain your disappointment. Here is an account from The Rude Pundit relating his experience at a healthcare town hall. No one combines political commentary with profanity better.
So, in response to this steaming turd over at TechCrunch, I posted a comment calling Erick Schonfeld an “idiot.” Note, that I didn’t say, “fucking idiot”, or “rampaging douchenozzle idiot,” or “cum – gargling shit monger idiot.” For me, I was restrained. Of course, the comment has been deleted. It is, as the youngsters say, on. Well, it’s Tuesday so it must be time for the shit-mongers over at PC World to expel another worthless bit of link-bait designed to a) get reprinted in Macworld, and b) bring in the iPhone fanatics. This week’s fecal dissertation is titled 5 Reasons It’s Time For a Verizon iPhone by Michael Scalisi. There isn’t actually a point to this colo-rectal discharge, so let’s get right into the defenestration, point by point. It would provide a major boost to iPhone sales: For a good number of people (whom I used to be one of), the iPhone is appealing, but AT&T is a deal breaker. Providing a second provider would capture these customers. Additionally, existing iPhone customers wanting to upgrade to the 3GS might find that jumping from AT&T to Verizon provides the perfect excuse to get a new phone with a new contract. This is the only one of Scalisi’s anal offspring that has even a hint of relation to reality, and it’s so self – fucking – evident as to be a gods damned tautology. Yes, Michael, offering the iPhone on another provider would increase the potential market. Aren’t you a bright boy. Do you Continue reading Five Reasons Michael Scalisi Should Shut His Fucking Trap |
