Hmm, Why Has Bachmann Stopped Bashing The Census? | TPMDC

You know, I was hoping this would happen. Sadly, the moron seems to have wised up. Birther Princess Michelle Bachmann has been carping about people not filling out the census so the “evil guvment” (that she works for) can’t find out who is living in America.

First off, I hoped all her followers would be declared illegal aliens and shipped to an abandoned oil platform we can call Wingnuttia. Then I heard that Minnesota might lose a Representative district, namely her’s.

So she’s shut up all about avoiding the census.

Pity.

Sadly the fools CAN be taught. Just not anything that would make them better people.

Hume calls on Tiger Woods to be “a great example to the world” by converting to Christianity | Media Matters

Republicans truly are pieces of shit, as if converting to Christianity would make a sin more or less forgiveable.

That’s the problem with Talibangelicals and their ilk, they believe that just going to church solves everything. No, you ALSO have to not be racist warmongers. Idiots.

Or, as posted on Reddit:

So Brit Hume suggested Tiger go find Jesus. I wonder why he didn’t make the same suggestion to Mark Sanford, John Ensign, Mark Foley, Ted Haggard, Larry Craig, and all the other republican cheaters, pedophiles, and repressed homosexuals.

Think Progress » Madden defends GOP’s hypocritical attacks: Obama’s in Hawaii, which ‘seems like a foreign place.’

“(Y)ou have to also remember the fact that the president being on vacation in Hawaii, it’s much different than being in Texas. Hawaii to many Americans seems like a foreign place. And I think those images, the optics, hurt President Obama very badly.”

– Former Romney spokesman and current Tool Kevin Madden

Republicans are, quite seriously, anti-American douchebags. To think that Hawaii isn’t American enough for them goes back to the whole Palinite BS argument about “real Americans”. I live in a desert surrounded by casinos and mountains. No one in Nebraska would find any similarity with that at all, but that person and I are both Americans.

There’s probably some conservative racist code words in there too I imagine.

Best reply to this asshole who thinks only Texas can be viewed as the standard for America?

Yeah, uh, that state whose leaders want it to actually become a foreign place via secession?

Booman Tribune ~ Why We Blog

Booman calls out the angry hypocrites and “poutragers” who hit Obama at every turn just like they did Bush.

Actually I’d argue more so since they feel betrayed by Obama. Frankly, the president has pretty much done what he said he would during the campaign. They must have been listening to different speeches or something. After three decades of conservative presidents, having a moderate actually *IS* an improvement. I guess these clowns were expecting a revolution or something.

Actually, between Booman, Juan Cole, and Bob Cesca, I have hope for our party. The rest of the angry progressive crowd have really turned me off with their alternating revisionist Clinton history (which was pretty conservative) with their gaggle of so-called heroes: Kucinich (perfect where he is but never gonna be president), Howard Dean (whose own health care reform was more conservative than Obama’s), and so on.

Bob Cesca: Republican Hypocrisy on Terrorism Reaches New Levels of Awful

Needless to say, Cheney is well-qualified to take an authoritative posture when it comes to terrorism. After all, he and his little buddy “kept us safe” from terrorist attacks for eight years, right? Other than the worst terrorist attack in American history, of course, along with the Anthrax Attacks, the Beltway Snipers, the thousands of terrorist attacks on our contractors and soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the attacks on our allies in London and Madrid, Cheney did a fine job keeping us safe…. Good job, Mr. Cheney!

Thanks again for telling it like it is Bob!

In the aftermath of the successful and terrible 9/11 attacks, Bush’s approval ratings shot up to 90 percent. Democrats and Republicans rallied around the president in defiance against violent religious extremism. Meanwhile, President Obama has just presided over a failed terrorist attack in which a Qaeda-doof botched a crotch rocket — the airplane landed on time and there were minimal injuries. The hijacker is still alive and is talking like Chatty Cathy doll. Yet President Obama is somehow targeted by the right as an utter failure because of it. Now imagine if there had been an attack even close to the scope of the 9/11 hijackings.

In other words, preside over the biggest terrorist attack in American history and it’s an EPIC WIN for President Bush. Preside over a failed attack and it’s an EPIC FAIL for President Obama.
