MSNBC goes full-on BHO-CULT

2014_02 14 MSNBC chyron - BHO The King

From comment section at Twitchy:

  • Remember when liberals denounced Bush as the “imperial presidency?” Good times, good times.
  • You’d have been better off with the British Monarchy at this point, as Queen Elizabeth has only a ceremonial role in the British Commonwealth unlike Barack The Magnificent.
  • I heard somewhere that the Queens cost less to maintain than the Obama family.
  • They certainly travel with less of an entourage.
  • And she loves her country and its people.
  • At least some of the royal family do something for society other than spend other people’s money. I can’t think of any Dem that currently fits that mold.
  • All of the royal families male offspring are expected, and do, join the British Armed Forced, preferably in combat roles which they pursue with honour and bravery.

Senator Reid is a big fat liar

Check out what the DEMOCRAT Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said from the floor of the United States Senate.

Reid: “It’s just stories! Lies!”

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. And the more than 5 million Americans who have had insurance policies they liked canceled? They’re all lying liars in a giant, right-wing conspiracy? Pull the other one, Harry.

Reid: “Ack! The Koch Brothers are trying to buy America!”

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Time Warner donated MORE TO DEMOCRATS than the KOCH BROTHERS donated to Republicans. And both of their donations were teensy weensy tater tots compared to the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS that billionaires, big unions and corporations have shoveled into Democrat coffers.

Obamacrats are absolutely shameless. Five years ago, one of them pimped an equally evil lie from the floor of the House of Representatives.

Those of us who are not brain dead Obamacrats know that the Republican plans were about addressing specific problems in the health insurance market that drive costs up. E.g., States (like New York) that forbid residents to buy health insurance anywhere else.

In New York, Blue Cross has a monopoly; you know what happens when one business controls a commodity, right? It should tell you something about how UNaffordable health insurance has been in New York State that we are one of the few places where ObamaCare prices are similar or a little less.

Dearest couldn’t afford health insurance before ObamaCare; we STILL can’t afford it, but now the government is going to FINE us for not having it. Thanks, Democrats. That was a Big Help. NOT.

Here’s a sampling of Tweets and Twitchy comments in response to Reid’s outrageous claim:

  • It’s all lies? So I haven’t been cut to 25 hrs/wk? Awesome!
  • And yet it was Obama’s oft-repeated promise that we could keep our doctors and our plans that was judge 2013 Lie of the Year.
  • Harry Reid can smear cancer patients by calling them liars and most of our media just ignores it.
  • Typical of the left to accuse Conservatives of doing what THEY are actually doing!
  • I lost my insurance. That’s true. I cannot stand liars like Obama, Pelosi, and Reid.
  • Discounting Americans’ personal stories. Shameful.
  • “Shameful” is Harry Reid’s middle name.

Tweeters also sent around links to some of these allegedly untrue horror stories.

We’re supposed to believe the KOCH BROTHERS are behind ALL THIS when they can’t even engineer a majority in the Senate?! Bwahahahahahahaha! 

Update: Reid walked back on his statement. And by that I mean he shifted his lying feet about 1 centimeter, from all the horror stories are lies to the vast, vast majority of the ones the Koch Brothers finance are lies.

Puh-leeze. This is the same man who once swore that he had it on good authority that Mitt Romney had not paid his taxes in years. That was a big fat lie as well … not that the Democrat Media Machine cared.

I love Trey Gowdy!

Feb 24, 2014: Trey Gowdy scorches the David Gregory interview of Susan Rice

Not a scintilla of evidence … stunningly arrogant … Bojangles Drive-Thru … ROFLL … except not funny given the subject, KWIM?

Rice has no regret, bless her little black heart. I remember Carter being asked what his biggest regret was for his entire administration. He said not sending an extra helicopter on that failed rescue. Four years of the (until now) worst presidency in modern history and, with 20-20 hindsight, he can’t think of anything better than that?!

Democrats. Argh.

Obamacrats don’t CARE what the majority want

2010: The House of Representatives and the Senate had Democrat majorities. Despite 50% of Americans saying, “We do NOT want this Obamacare law”, the Democrat supermajority passed it.

House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi pooh-poohed our objections saying we were too dumb to understand how great it was going to be.

2011 -2013: With the media’s pimping, some folks bought the Obamacrat line. But that didn’t last. As more and more elements of the law went into effect, opposition returned to 2010 levels, then rose higher.

OBAMACARE Majority opposed

2014: Even with the media still pimping and Obamacrats calling opponents all the usual bad names, the latest poll shows the total number of It’s not so bads is now CLOSE to the number of Really really hate its.

Bubble bath your window has a churning wombat skillet

and other things that make total sense only inside the Obamacrat Reality Bubble.

2014_02 17 Brazile's wombat tweets

Tweet replies to Donna “Churning Wombat” Brazile’s whining about all us meanie pants who don’t like President Boyfriend’s law breaking:

  • The most powerful man on earth is the victim of bullying? Sweet fancy Moses.
  • The guy who’s pushing his way past congress to do whatever he wants is a victim of bullying? #backwards
  • If I could dumb myself down enough to actually compare going to prom with bypassing Congress, I’d probably be a Democrat too.
  • Bipartisanship? The Dem led Senate has held nothing but partisan votes. More than any time in the last 5 decades — a record.
  • Hey, Donna. Care to help us out with bullies too? Thanks! ~ Conservatives targeted and harassed by Obama’s IRS

The false Koch meme

Lefties rant and spew about how the eeeeeevil Koch brothers allegedly buy elections for Republicans and MUST BE STOPPED.

Left's obsession with Boogeyman Koch Brothers

One might suppose from the fact that Democrats have dominated the federal political scene since January 2007 that the Koch brothers are rather ineffective morons. But that’s neither here nor there, since Open Secrets has compiled a list of actual Big Bucks Donors.

The Koch brothers are waaaaay down at #59. And six of the top ten are UNIONS that donated to Democrats 15 times what the Koch brothers donated to Republicans.

Facts can be so messy. This is no doubt why the Left avoids them as much as possible.

Who is buying US elections

Full list of donors @ http://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/list.php. N.b., All donors listed at Open Secrets are linked to pages that describe the nature of the group. I compiled a simplified version of the Open Secrets list using this methodology:

  • I ignored all donations less than 70% to a single party.
  • I rounded the total up or down, then multiplied by the >70% figure given and rounded the answer.
  • I ignored minority donations (less than 30%) for simplicity’s sake.
