Where is Ed Schultz? Will be be reporting from Wisconsin any more, starting up another recall petition?
The lessons of Wisconsin have been noted, and everyone is moving on, except apparently a rightwingers (as usual) still stuck on Birther crap, Solyndra, etc. Imagine Orly Tatz coming in the top five of an election, or Kreep, the dude who sales Birther crap -- Bob, you have better things you could do with your time to save your own Party. Hurry, it's going down the toilet as I type...!
Ed and carrot top met Tuesday to watch the returns come in from the Walker Recall, and celebrate with some cocktails.... the vote didn't turn out the way they had hoped... but didn't stop them from consumming multiple adult beverages! I understand that much later that evening, at closing time, the bar employees had to use dollys to remove the both of them from the bar.... and carrot top claims Boehner drinks to excess.... lol!
FYI: absentee ballot voting for the Republican and Democratic senate primary in Maine is way down over 2010. I saw a piece on the local news, where they asked people on the street if they were voting in the primary and most said "what's the point? Independent former governor Angus King will be our next Senator from Maine."
As a good Democrat, I shouldn't say this, but I plan to vote for King. To all of those who hate partisan gridlock in Congress, I can say: help is on the way! Angus King will be a voice of reason and pragmatism, he's a good guy.
Shows the mentality of Bob in Virginia. And after reading Miked's post he has even less. Guys go back over to Fox (aka tea people Koch republican propaganda machine) where the low mentality of their reporters matches yours. Besides that's where you can get your daily lies.
Romney catches up? Really?
So let me get this straight:
The GOP spends the early 2000's crashing the nation's economy, doubling the national debt, giving party favors to the wealthy, 911 on their watch kills 3,000 Americans, fake Iraq War and Afghanistan kills 5,000 Americans, Katrina kills 1,100 people, they outed one of our own CIA agents, Pentagon gets a hole in it, World Trade Centers gone, 3 jet liners gone, Osama bin Laden buys a lounge chair and an HBO subscription, housing values tank, the stock market loses half its value, GM and Chrysler squeezed to the brink of death, record job losses, record foreclosures, record bank failures, Lehman Bros. *poof*, bankruptcies soar, and the repub Party renames itself the "Tea Bagger Party" and says "Let's all forget what happened, now" ......all BEFORE Obama even sits down at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?
And half of you want this back again?
Even if Obama wins I gotta' get the hell out of this effin' country.

Sorry. This was a trick quiz. All of the correct answers are the same
Person. Each of these quotes are directly from President Barack Obama. And
Now you know why he brings his teleprompter with him everywhere he
Goes...even when talking to a 6th grade class.
And some members of the media continue to insist he is "The smartest man
Ever elected to the Presidency".
AND THEY SAID GEORGE W. WAS STUPID.
Hum☺r from German Parades – Floats and Balloons in Carnival Parade
posted byDonna Calvin
These floats were part of the annual Carnival Parade in Germany
watched by an estimated 3 million people in 3 German cities including Dusseldorf.
With our controlled press, it is interesting to see that German citizens seem to know
more about the U.S. political system and environment than the majority of citizens on the streets of America.
“There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation.
One is by the sword. The other is by debt.”

So let me get this straight:
"The GOP spends the early 2000s crashing the nation's economy, doubling the national debt, giving party favors to the wealthy, 911 on their watch kills 3,000 Americans – the Pentagon gets a hole in it, the World Trade Center gone, they launch a fake Iraq War and Afghanistan, 5,000 Americans dead, their ineptitude in response to Katrina results in 1,100 people dead, and thousands more displaced (some still displaced), they outed one of our own CIA agents, Osama Bin Laden buys a lounge chair and an HBO subscription, housing values tank, record foreclosures, the stock market loses half its value, GM and Chrysler on the brink of death, record bank failures, Lehman Bros. *poof*, bankruptcies soar," and the deficit DOUBLES because of two UNPAID WARS, an UNPAID PART D PRESCRIPTION PLAN, and UNPAID TAX CUTS. And the Tea Party blames Obama for ALL OF IT before he even sits down at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue???
Am I missing something here? People, really, wow... Rush, Fox News, the Koch Bros, etc are playing you and laughing as they count their billions in the bank.
democrats believe in horoscope, acupuncture, mediums, karate, fortune tellers, ghost hunters, astrology, yoga, far east quackery, buddhism, entities, nostradamus, and lots of other laughable bull@!$%#.

a bunch of @!$%#ing nuts, weirdos, whackos, sickos, and gullible perverts.
