Attacking Their Former Close Allies

Image
Mitch McConnell and Kit Bond today did something that you would have never thought a Republican would even dare think of doing. Make fun and slander the Federal Bureau of Investigation. First, it was the Missouri senator showing how reckless he could be whenever he opens his mouth by announcing that he thought the information of Umar Farouk Abdulmuttalab's cooperation being made known public was dangerous and that it somehow went against what FBI Director Bob Mueller promised him in regards to " keeping his cooperation quiet ." Bond said the "release of this sensitive information has no doubt been helpful" to Abdulmutallab's "terrorist cohorts around the world." Bond's absurd desire to publicly make an example of the FBI was not dismissed at all by Gibbs when Tapper asked him about it: Gibbs said "no briefing is done here or anywhere in this administration where classified information is used in a place where it shouldn't be....

It's Just Gets Higher And Higher Each Day

"Teh Stupid" level is truly infinite.

"Solomon's Disciples" Should Be Their New Name

Image
It really should be A little creative re-branding has worked wonders for the likes of Diddy (now back to Puff Daddy), Joe Lieberman, and the Volkswagen Beetle. So why not for C Street? In recent weeks, the secretive Christian fellowship group, whose red-brick townhouse on Capitol Hill has for years served as an in-session dorm for religious lawmakers, has been getting some unwanted publicity. Thanks to its ties to three recent Republican sex scandals -- those of Nevada senator John Ensign, South Carolina governor Mark Sanford, and former congressman Chip Pickering -- C Street has started to get a reputation as somewhere between a halfway house and frat house for conservative politicians looking to cheat on their wives while convincing themselves they're still upstanding guys. Hence the need for some re-branding. "Thou have spokenth."

A Contrast If There Ever Was One

First, the stupid: Yes, so socialism despite the urging of keeping the private insurance companies in health care reform to compete. Yes, that is so socialist indeed Thankfully now, the intelligent: Black and white most be the same colors after you see this post. Update : Video problems, had the wrong embed of McConnell, so my bad if I made some of you guys go "WTF" just now. Obama is the second video. The intelligent one.

Remember when I said it gets so stupid that you just can't help but laugh. Well, yeah: Nothing more needs to be said.

The One Sentence Thread For 7/16/09: I'll Never Have That Feeling, Damnit

It must be a lovely feeling to be a white male GOP Senator out of touch with mainstream America.

Follow The Chart Of Republican Sex Scandals

Yes, because it's added emphasis to show the Party of Family Values and their deeds. Because that family values party sure as hell isn't the Democrats (click on it to see it bigger): (huge thanks to TPM as always)

If They Have Lost The Terrorism Poll Battle, Then They Have Really Lost

Posted by Sargent yesterday , further analyzed by DemFromCT today . If the Republicans have lost the terrorism debate, well, they are really in a bad bad state.

Well, What Do You Know, Democrats Are Being Aggressive

Image
(Click to enlarge the photo) From what Greg reports With some polls showing erosion in support for some Obama policies, Democrats tell me they’re going to ratchet up their attacks on the GOP’s historic unpopularity, in hopes that the media will take the focus off Obama’s numbers and start raising questions about the GOP’s credibility with the public. The core argument the Dems will be making, according to the memo, is this barbed line: To put it simply, the GOP’s take on Obama’s poll numbers is a lot like the owner of a 1987 Buick pointing out the dents and potential engine trouble of a 2008 BMW sedan. Top House Dem communications aide Doug Thornell emails another data point about the new WaPo poll, specifically that it shows “the public supports the President over Congressional Republicans on the most important issues, including the deficit, the economy, combating terrorism, and health care, by an average of 24 points.” Sometimes you can say "A new day" has come without loo...

The Straight Jacket Award For 6/23/09: He Probably Went AWOL Because Of This

He probably did. Sanford in general has done so much of late, that i should just give him the already for the day.

Meghan McCain Wore Thin A Long Time Ago

The moment they allowed her to speak on television for me is when her clueless arrogance and spoiled stupidity annoyed me.

They Still Think It's All About Them

Via Josh and crew , more Republican stupidity, this time from Michigan Congressfool Pete Hoekstra Yes, your "Drill baby drill" chants, shouts, and LA LALALALALALA intelligence is just similar to a controversial election of a country that could quite possibly lead to another Revolution in it. The Sad Obnoxious Party. Even half way around the world from them, they think it's really about them.

The Sleep Time and Rise "n" Shine Thread For 6/15-16/09: They Just Can't Hide Their Rascism

Image
Tennessee GOP idiot since this through an email: Dummies that keep on saying Gore didn't win his own state in 2000 continue to look stupid now, don't they. "I just made up stories." Torture advocates lose again. Until tomorrow, may it bring a better you, and a better me.

Um, Someone Needs To Check Even Their Typos

Image
Mr.Moulitsas gives everyone a hilarious laugh with this find on the Republican Senate and Republican Congressional site : 1020? Um, that's 989 years ago, and 990 next year. But for a party that lives in the past, maybe it wasn't a typo.

A Commercial Not Worth Showing Even at 3AM

Take it away Jed : Break out the popcorn, because there's a nutty new ad from the same people that brought you terror over a "smoking gun that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud." It's the smaller-than-life story of of how President Obama wants to release terrorists in Guantanamo Bay so that they can smuggle nuclear weapons into the United States, and it's presented by the RNC:

So Much For Bipartisanship

Image
Via Daily Kos video editor Jed , look what we have here in the final vote for the stimulus package. You would think that after all this reaching out by President Obama that at least maybe one, maybe just one , Republican would vote for the bill, especially since 11 Democrats voted against the bill (the final count was 244-188, as one Democrat switched at the last minute). But noooooooo, ideology, and most importantly, selfish, "me and me only" mentalities have engulfed the elephant party, whether they are nutty conservatives hell bent on their ways of insanity or moderates who talk a semi-rational game but in the end are just as uncaring for the American people as their fellow loony cohorts. The Sad Obnoxious Party strikes again, and they will continue to further make themselves irrelevant with every stupid move they continue to make. Update : Oops, I put the wrong picture up on this thread. Silly me. But not as silly as the SOP.
