In the wake of the crushing defeats the Democrat Party suffered in the 2014 elections, the Democrat National Committee recently held a “lessons learned” meeting that is variously being described as a “post-mortem” or an “autopsy on the rotting corpse” of what’s left of the Party. It is being reported that the leadership has decided that they need to focus on the people they lost in recent elections, particularly white, middle-class Americans. However, I think it is more useful to look at what Democrats actually do rather than what they say they are going to do. The two are never the same, obviously. Such is the case with professional liars. So, I have taken a look at the Chairwoman’s Twitter feed and discovered that they are taking a 3-prong approach:

1 – Exalt the Legendary Dead White Heroes of the Party, like Ted Kennedy.
2 – Tell even bigger lies about Barack Obama’s destruction impact on the country.
3 – Project even more Democrat’s character flaws onto Republicans, no matter how retarded it gets.

You can tell this is going to work, right out of the box. Obviously, those white people who didn’t vote Democrat are racist woman-abusers, so appeal to them by focusing on white Democrat woman-abusers, like Teddy! That’ll bring them around! Tomorrow, we’ll focus on Joe Biden. That’ll work!

In the “Tell Bigger Lies” department, Debbie has 3 charts to lay upon us right away, and they’re not new, but they are real whoppers in the non-truth sense. Have a look.

Debunking this chart is beyond the scope of this rant, but assuming that the percentages shown are technically accurate, this chart tells two HUGE lies. First, it implies that “the deficit” is going down. It is not. The Public debt is now over $18 trillion, which is something like 102% of our GDP. That’s horrendously bad. The data for 2009 doesn’t look bad as a percentage, but it means we spent an EXTRA $2 TRILLION we didn’t have that year alone, and now in 2014, that measly 2.8% that looks so good means that HALF the money we’re spending every year – half a trillion dollars – is borrowed. It has never been that bad before.

The data in this jobs chart is likewise rendered meaningless because the data has been so heavily manipulated and redefined. As just one example, consider that full-time, good-paying jobs have been stagnant or decreased over this time. Most of the jobs that have expanded have been part-time jobs, and any full-time job increases are the result of a petroleum boom that has happened DESPITE the efforts of this administration. They still take credit for those, however.

This is a fun chart. Did you notice that wind producing countries, like the UK members, are not even listed on it? But nations who don’t bother with wind production, like China, and those who have given up on it because it’s not sustainable, like Spain, ARE shown? That’s pretty funny, Debbie!

This last tweet is actually my favorite, because it showcases the total lack of self-awareness that characterizes the modern Democrat, in general, and Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, in particular. What party, do you think, is infamous for demanding absolute internal discipline when it comes to NEVER criticizing one of their own, no matter how outrageously stupid and untruthful the statement? Hint: It’s not the Republicans. How about the efforts to impeach G.W. Bush by Congressional Democrats? Did any Democrats stand up to criticize Nancy Pelosi when she said “Bush is an incompetent leader. In fact, he’s not a leader…. He’s a person who has no judgment, no experience and no knowledge of the subjects that he has to decide upon.”? You stay classy, Debbie. And good luck in 2016.

Much has been made of the fact that President Obama’s Executive Amnesty adventure was most enthusiastically condemned by none other than himself. In months and years past, the President stated many times, publicly, that such an action would be illegal. Until, apparently, he changed his mind and signed such an order. That patently illegal action is very likely dead now that it’s been halted by a federal judge. Executive Amnesty is not the first occasion the present-day Barack Obama has found himself in stark disagreement with the younger Senator Obama. His miraculously changing views on the ethics of the federal deficit come to mind. But the President has nothing on other high-ranking Democrat Party officials, like former Chairman Howard Dean, who just recently came under fire for criticizing Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s credentials to run for President, because he has no college degree. It comes as no surprise to anyone that Dean has praised the credentials of plenty of Democrats who lacked much more than a college degree, some who lacked even a verifiable birth certificate. While this is merely a bit of hypocrisy, the result is ironic when, as Walker pointed out, we end up with Harvard-educated politicians who are still morons. Dean’s successor, Debbie Wassermann Schultz is likewise a legend for her rhetorical gymnastics and amusing contradictory positions.

But the current reigning champ of world-class irony-blindness has to be our Vice-President, Joe Biden, pictured below while still a US Senator and chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee deliberating, in 1991, the nomination of Judge Clarence Thomas to the US Supreme Court.  Those extremely painful hearings were responsible for putting the entire nation on high alert about sexual harassment in the workplace.  Chairman Joe, at the time, was very comfortable establishing that the slightest action by a male co-worker that made a woman uncomfortable, even without any physical contact of any kind, should be dealt with in the harshest of ways.

Later in 1993, while still a senator, Joe said: “No man has a right to touch a woman without her consent, and that’s what we’ve got to get across.” Later, in 2000 while discussing the Violence Against Women Act, he said, according to the Washington Examiner:

“There is no circumstance under which a man has a right to touch a woman without her consent other than self-defense. We are changing the attitudes of America about what constitutes appropriate behavior on the part of a man with a woman.”

Since that time, Vice President Joe Biden has proven to be a man on a mission to disprove all that, and to perpetrate as much sexual discomfort on women as is possible for one man. Who can forget this?

Or this?

Or this?

And, how irony-retarded do you have to be to accuse Republicans of a “War on Women” while this is going on all over the world, and Democrats actively dismantle our ability to do anything about it?

How do Democrats respond to the subjugation of women under Islam? By excusing it, of course. Just when does a little irony-retardedness become a criminal act? I believe we’ve achieved that reality for some time now.
