I mentioned to my husband this week that I felt sorry for the political satirists, because the Obama Era has made reality so absurd, there was nowhere left for them to go. As evidence, I offer this from today’s news …
A satire site did a fake news story about how Ted Cruz told a wounded veteran he should sell cookies to raise money for his care. David Nelson News, Occupy Democrats and a host of dimwitted Leftist tweeters passed it on as a true tale.
One IJ Review commenter noted, “As usual the low information liberals can’t tell a real story from the truth, it is no wonder they continue to fall for the lies of hillary and obama.”
To his credit, when corrected, Nelson deleted his tweet and apologized.
Occupy still has it posted as of this writing (7 a.m. on May 12).
One Occupy commenter noted, “Cruz is the worst P O S that has ever came out of the Republican Turd pipe !….EVER !…”
I added my two cents, “This ‘news’ story was taken from a SATIRE site. It’s no wonder our nation is in such a mess when voters can’t be bothered to separate jokes from truth. “I can see Russia from my house!” was also a joke, made by Tina Fey on SNL. How many of you were so eager to believe that Sarah Palin is a moron that you couldn’t care less that she never said it? The fact is you CAN see a small island belonging to Russia from a small island belonging to Alaska.”
Petraeus’ story convinces me even more that RINOs like those who just flipped and voted to confirm the contemptible Loretta Lynch as AG aren’t willingly complicit; they are being blackmailed. I mean … who can look at Boehner’s face here and believe he WANTS to cooperate with Obamacrats?
I remember watching bewildered as Petraeus rolled over for Obama. But it seemed like one day he got told to do something that was a bridge too far for this flawed, but fundamentally honorable and patriotic man. And then, suddenly, all the dirt about his mistress was public knowledge, his reputation was ruined, and he was indicted.
Meanwhile, corruptocrats like Harry Reid and Hillary Clinton skate along, committing felonies, lying, stealing, ruining reputations, killing and getting people killed, without consequences. It’s not even a secret! But it seems as if those in the media and the GOP who have the clout to do something about them just do … nothing.
Kevin DuJan always said it was SOP for Democrats to keep dirt files on everybody … Democrats and Republicans … and that so long as you did what the Democrats wanted, the dirt stayed in the vault. It is the only sensible explanation for why some of these people have done such absurd things.
Remember how Hillary Clinton was an out-spoken supporter of the Iraq War, then suddenly she was claiming Bush had lied (which he hadn’t) and the Iraq War was eeeeeeeeevil? And remember how Nancy Pelosi, who had witnessed a demonstration of waterboarding and voted to approve its use on three Gitmo detainees, was suddenly screaming that the horrible the Bush administration was waterboarding people?
Come on! I realize these people aren’t rocket scientists, but even they aren’t that dumb. Okay, Maxine Waters probably is that dumb, but Clinton, Pelosi and Reid aren’t. Corrupt, yes. But not flat out, brain dead, islands-can-tip-over stupid. Harry Reid is perfectly well aware that his statements on the Senate floor are recorded, yet he says something one day and the very next week says he never said that? And he doesn’t get censured? And the media doesn’t crucify him? Puh-leeze.
I get a couple lessons out of all this. One is that while we elected a Republican majority, most of the newbies are too junior to have much clout and a majority of the old guard have Obamacrat leashes on their backbones. The other lesson is that those Republicans who do have clout and who are standing up to the Obamacrat machine are as squeaky clean as Mitt Romney (who pays his taxes) and Sarah Palin (who buys her own clothes).
And 10 Republicans made it possible. WTF? May they be infested with permanent crotch weasels. Breitbart – Senate Confirms Loretta Lynch As U.S. Attorney General.
Comments Off on Obama Said Something True: A Senate That Confirms Two Puppet AGs in a Row for the President of a Banana Republic IS Embarrassing
Those of you who visit the garden regularly probably get tired of my constant whining about what I perceive as reality. Maybe I had an operation at some point that connected my optic nerve to my sphincter muscle that’s causing my shitty outlook on life. Aside from researching for things to post here I never read about anything political. It just doesn’t seem to matter much anymore. Once you understand how the game is played you can nearly always predict the outcome of any situation.
The democrats have to cheat, but they usually win.
The media will always defend them. They took an ordinary street hustler from Chicago and turned him into a president.
Politicians, liberals in particular, flout the laws we’re forced to live by at will without much fear of punishment.
The game is rigged. We finally got a majority in both the House and the Senate and nothing has changed. The GOIP elite don’t care if the democrats run the show as long as they get their cut.
Amnesty is an inevitability because the left needs the votes and the GOP’s money men at the Chamber of Commerce want the cheap labor.
The few conservatives willing to stand up for the people are quickly silenced or targeted by the media whores for ridicule and abuse.
I’ll concede most minorities may be decent people. It’s just that any time I see a headline about a murder, rape or armed robbery my initial thought, even before reading, is usually accurate. It’s cringeworthy to see the level of savagery that seems to be commonplace in many areas.
Things will never change. Once you get a majority of people accustomed to living on a basic subsistence without working, you have a captive electorate. Even with the alarming abortion rate in the black community there are still millions born into poverty to single mothers that will continue the cycle of ignorance and dependency. Add to that the tens of millions of illegals rushing across the border to take advantage of the things hard-working Americans have sacrificed so much for and the only logical conclusion is that we’ll never see another republican president again.
For the most part I will content myself with old westerns, watching my grandkids grow, and my regular Thursday breakfast with my cousin and uncles. I’m watching more baseball than I used to and am eagerly anticipating the upcoming NFL draft.
AN OLD PHOTOGRAPH OF BARACK OBAMA AND CHRIS CHRISTIE;
BETWEEN THEM IS OBAMA’S DOG,WHOSE NAME WAS ‘LUNCH.’
Sen. Tim Scott, the black Republican overwhelmingly elected by an extremely conservative electorate, noted that Durbin’s vote against Condoleezza Rice happened during the 40th anniversary of the March on Selma. Classy, Dickie. Real classy.
The reports of Benjamin Netenyahu’s demise turned out to be slightly exaggerated. The jihadists in Hamas, Iran, Syria, and the White House are heartbroken. But how did he not only win the election, but his Likud Party pick up seats in the Knesset where they were supposed to lose? By showing some backbone, fighting for the survival of his country, and not trying to make deals with the liars and murderers who would do him in. He coalesced all the factions of his nation’s right wing to unite for the sake of survival.
Our own republican party could take this same lesson if only the entrenched establishment were willing to work with the conservative base. But they’re not. They have their own self-interest at heart, not those of the people they purport to represent. On any legislation of import they generally side with our enemy, the democrats, to thwart any positive change in the DC hierarchy. The house democrats have even sworn to protect Weeper-of-the-House John Boehner from the congressmen and women who swore to keep their word to their constituents. We keep hoping our party will stand up to the bullying of a nobody in the People’s House and his henchmen in the party, who know he’s a joke but dare not question their ruler and time and again we’ve seen our party ‘leaders’ surrender, often without so much as a whimper.
The reaction from the liberals has been interesting, to say the least.
Why Can’t Republicans Beat Obama Like Netanyahu Just Did?
There are many reasons that Netanyahu surged toward the end. But they all boil down to one: enough Israeli voters knew that a loss for Netanyahu meant a victory for Obama. And they weren’t going to stand for it. On both occasions when Bibi surged in the polls–just prior to his speech to Congress, and on Election Day–a major theme of campaign rhetoric was the charge that Obama was interfering in the elections. (Those charges have merit, as a Senate committee is about to find out.) http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/03/17/why-cant-republicans-beat-obama-like-netanyahu-just-did/
OBAMA WHITE HOUSE Avoids Congratulating Netanyahu – Won’t Mention His Name
White House aide went on CNN this morning to congratulate the people of Israel.
He wouldn’t congratulate PM Benjamin Netanyahu and avoided mentioning his name.
Pathetic.
“We want to congratulate the Israeli people for the democratic process for the election that they just engaged in with all the parties that engaged in that election. As you know now, the hard work of coalition building begins. Sometimes that takes a couple of weeks. And we’re going to give space to the formation of that coalition government and we’re not going to weigh in one way or another except to say that the United States and Israel have a historic and close relationship and that will continue going forward,”
