Listening to the Voices in my Head

To the vacuous Trump followers; please just stop it.

Trump isn't/wasn't called "Don the Con" for no reason.  He sold you a bill of goods, and you bought it. You're not the only person he has screwed over.

The election wasn't stolen, Mike Pence's role in the counting of the Electoral votes was purely ceremonial. 

Ivermectin is for parasites (Yes, I know this one is confusing. Certain politicians are parasites, and some are just pests). It doesn't do diddlysquat against Covid.

Drinking disinfectant or bleach will prevent COVID, because it drinking these will kill you instead.

Stop with the US vs THEM tribalism.  

People have the right to come to the U.S. border and request asylum. Just because you don't like the color of their skin, or the languages they speak, doesn't give you the right to side step theirs.

So please, just stop

Quoted verbatim from a friend about the GOP and their Putin Puppet

Once the defense went from "he didn't do it!" to "Ok so he did it but it's not illegal for *him*", and there wasn't a peep of outrage over that from a single soul on the republican side (do they even have souls?) I realized the damage that's occurred in this country is 100x greater than I ever thought.

Then they changed the defense to "He did it, but it's not illegal because he has determined it to be in the best interests of the nation and national security to ensure he is re-elected at any and all costs." Not a peep.

Then they flat out said, "just because he did it and it's impeachable, doesn't mean it's in the nation's best interests to impeach him." and that's it. That's the moment when I completely lost my shit.

They're saying yes he did it, but that doesn't matter because we don't care. Yes, he did it, but it doesn't matter because he's the President and therefore above the law. Yes, he did it, but corruption and unethical behavior are acceptable if it gets you re-elected. Yes, he did it, but it's the President's right to obstruct and disregard Congress.

They've undermined their own authority, negated the checks and balances in the system, and given him license to be a dictator, and there is literally nothing that can be done about it. If we thought he was terrible before, wait til we see what's coming, now that he knows he can't be touched.

When the Founders set up our system, they gave us impeachment as an option in case a particular president or other elected official needed to be removed. They never anticipated that the corruption could become so widespread that the very body charged with carrying out justice against the president would be working entirely in collaboration with him to carry out that corruption. This is the ultimate failure of our system, and unless we re-write all the laws pertaining to this, it can never be fixed.

Karen Hughes, Former Bush Adviser: If Another Republican Man Talks Rape, I'll 'Cut Out His Tongue'

As much as I don't support violent acts, I can fully understand this sentiment. Republicans, especially male Republicans, have a Paleolithic attitude when it comes to women, and their rather blase attitudes about sexual assault. You still hear "Why were you walking alone?" "Why were you out at night?" "Why were you wearing that?" from them. We have the right to walk alone, to be outside at night, and to wear what we want. Rape had nothing to do with any of the excuses these rape apologists/enablers keep going on about. It's a brutal act of violence.

Sean Hannity Flips On Immigration Reform, Now Supports Pathway To Citizenship

Now that was one helluva flip flop. Anyone other than me have this mental image of Hannity bowing before Mr Romney, and Mr Romney saying "You have learned well, glasshoppah."?

Victoria Jackson On Obama's Win: 'I Can't Stop Crying, America Died'

As if her uninformed opinions mean anything? She is a comedienne wanna be (wasn't that funny, IMO) has-been who wants to be significant again. She and Donald Trump should get together as they would get along famously, and their combined IQs should reach about 100.

Hypocrisy at its finest?

From FAUX Noise : Palin "We must condemn violence if our republic is to endure."

Yes, she had the unmitigated gall to say this after all her gun jargon ("retreat and reload" being one of them) , a map with gun-sights on Democratic Party held districts and all her other 'gun' imagery she, and her drooling fans, so love. Don't like the term drooling? Too bad, you should read some of the forums where men and women are almost having 'private moments' in their descriptions of Palin and her guns and gun commentary.

She, on one hand, advocates violence (as does many of the Tea-hadists) and now tries her typical routine of fluttering her eyelashes, and playing dumb? Methinks it's not playing.

Why is this dip-shit getting air time?

Typing of Dip-shit and air time, FAUX Noise. I didn't keep a running tally of how many of their 'guests', and some of their own talking heads, have used gun or violence rhetoric for their way of 'solving' their disputes. Jokes about killing President Obama. Flat out advocating death to those who oppose them.

Then they have the gall to polish up that yellow dinner plate, hold it above their heads as if it's a halo saying they are against violence when everything they have been doing and saying for the past 2+ years has been just short of sending subliminal messages on top of their blatant messages, that if you don't get your way, resorting to acts of violence is the way to go.

I'm trying to be charitable

Either Sen McCain is a liar, or he is senile. According to McCain the military does not seek to see if a military member is gay, that they don't search private emails. It's not the policy and it's just not done. He chanted that over and over during an interview with reporters.

But here is a former Air Force member, Major Mike Almy, whose PRIVATE emails were searched while he was serving in Iraq, and he was discharged him. Major Almy testified about this, and McCain was there during the testimony.

The MILITARY violated the DADT policy by actively seeking to discover if the Major was gay by breaking into his private email account and going through them looking for evidence. Upon reading his emails, he was then unceremoniously discharged for violating DADT when the military was the one who violated it.

So, Sen. McCain is either a liar, or senile.. or maybe deaf.

Gawd I love it

I love watching GOP members who voted NO NO NO NO on the stimulus President Obama passed, standing there taking credit for the businesses, or campaigning at those businesses that were saved because of that Stimulus.

The GOP members that vote no for expanding Veterans' Benefits, then turning around taking credit for it.

Next in the news, the GOP taking credit for.. let's see.. Oh I know, for repealing DADT?
