Think Progress » O’Reilly Upset Over 9/11 Trials: ‘I Don’t Care About The Constitution!’

“I don’t care about the Constitution!”

– Bill O’Reilly

From the party that gave you “Stop throwing the Constitution in my face. It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!” (that’s their Rethug hero Bush hard at work) comes Bill O’Reilly foaming at the mouth and freaking on the prospect of actually using the justice system to try the folks behind 9/11.

You know, like civilized people do?

Nah, this mix of theocracy-loving zealots and civil rights abusing racists (really, on paper, is there ANY difference between the GOP and al-Qaeda?) hates the idea of giving the guys that killed our citizens their day in court.

I mean, hell, they had NO issues with Papa Reagan taking in EVERY murderer in Castro’s prisons but they are afraid of a couple hundred pseudo-Muslim douchebags.

I means, even FAUXNews’ pet lawyer think trying these guys in New York is both proper and legal.

Basically, aside from the obvious fearmongering, these idiots don’t have a leg to stand on.

Fox News’s faux news | Brad Friedman | guardian.co.uk

It is with a sense of both shame and bemusement that we now witness good Americans agitated and drafted into protests over the very policies that the Republican failure has itself created and supported uncritically for years: record government expansion and deficits; massive Big Brother invasion of privacy; bureaucratic intrusion between patients and doctors; corporate bailouts courtesy of taxpayer largesse….

The list goes on and on, but the frothing teabaggers protest as if the last eight years never happened. Rather, these poor saps were presented with a phony version of reality produced with Hollywood-style special effects and distractions (missing blonds, steroids in baseball, terrorists around every corner, non-existent voter fraud). Now these confused souls roam the streets, town halls and email lists as clueless zombies, unaware of who and what they are fighting for (government-supported corporatocracy) or against (their own self-interest).

Even the Brits now see what a danger FAUXNews is.

Only a couple comments

Once again, more sound reason from Reddit:

Why are people surprised that Palin is lying in her book? Its title is ‘Going Rogue’ – ‘rogue’ is a ‘dishonest or worthless person’ according to Merriam- Webster

– submitted by epsilona01

Followed by the definition from Merriam-Webster (emphasis mine):

Main Entry: rogue Pronunciation: \ˈrōg\ Function: noun Etymology: origin unknown Date: 1561

1 : vagrant, tramp
2 : a dishonest or worthless person : scoundrel
3 : a mischievous person : scamp
4 : a horse inclined to shirk or misbehave
5 : an individual exhibiting a chance and usually inferior biological variation

In short, this racist rabble-rouser and mental lightweight has nothing to tell me and I truly wish the morons on TV would stop talking about this fool.

Think Progress » Will the RNC apologize for racist Facebook photo?

Republicans are really getting onboard this newfangled Facebook thingy. Enough so that they’ve learned to upload funny photos. Well, funny to them anyway.

The GOP has tried to distance themselves from this, but they haven’t denounced it. This, as usual, is the Republican Party trying to shush the sheet wearing crowd behind the curtain as opposed to revealing all the evil in their ranks and asking them to leave. I mean, hell, you are already losing elections, why not try to do the right thing for the first time since 1863?

Carrie Prejean Abruptly Leaves Larry King Interview – Yahoo! TV Blog

Republicans are idiots. When they aren’t electing – or trying to elect – failed fighter pilots, they are choosing cheerleaders and failed pageant morons as their “leaders”.

Case in point. Hot on the heels of her revelation of having a porn tape, bigoted ex-Miss California Carrie Prejean can’t handle a question by Larry King.

Larry is like, what?, 80? What possible thing could he say or do to offend anyone beyond trying to make you the next ex-Mrs. Larry King?

Anyway, enjoy the stupidity.
