Tuesday Thoughts

For me, the only reason to be religious would be to experience the deep satisfaction of knowing so many Republican politicians are headed for eternal punishment in hell.

Something that's proven to be true every single day:

• Not all the people who are uneducated, uninformed, gullible, or just plain stupid are Republican voters, but
• All Republican voters are uneducated, uninformed, gullible, or just plain stupid.

Steve shows his contempt.

Frankly, I don't give a damn whether Steve (Groad) Bannon answers questions from the House Intelligence (sic) Committee or not. As long as Devin Nunes is chairman, that committee is worthless. The only questions I care about him answering will come from the investigators on Robert Mueller's team.

Add perjury to the list of charges.

Of course his lawyers don't want Donny Phatazz to talk on the record to anyone connected to Mueller's investigation. The son of a bitch can't verbalize for 20 seconds without telling a lie about something.

On the subjects of Donny Phatazz and talking, the son of a bitch has a concept of treason that's completely different from mine. To me, treason would be a conspiracy with Russia to rig an American presidential election. Not giving Phatazz a standing ovation would be in the heroic patriotism category.

Ratings

Donnie Phatazz thinks like a TV reality show performer, always obsessed with the ratings. What an asshole. In the rankings of U.S. Presidents, he's 45th out of 45. In the rankings of legitimate U.S. Presidents, he doesn't qualify (DNA). On that list, W is 44th of 44.

Update 3:09 PM: Edited as follows: Donnie Phatazz thinks like a juvenile reality show performer. He's not just an asshole; he's an embarrassing asshole.

Update 12:40 AM Friday: It's all show biz. Donnie Phatazz, playing an incompetent precedent (sic) on his imaginary TV reality show, relies on another TV performer, Sean Hannity of Fox News, for important political guidance. No wonder this so-called precedent (sic) is taking Epic Fail to a whole new level.

The Golden Shithole

From Newsweek: Good Christian soldiers won't need to worry about PTSD. Right.

From Salon: There's a lot of defeatism going around, and fear that Donny will win, but the writer of this piece, for one, has a different viewpoint.

The so-called precedent (sic) and his whole admenstruation (sic) will now be referred to as the Golden Shithole, and this will be their symbol:

The Seat of Power

Grand Reopening (Stage One)

According to the liberal blogs, the Senate approved a short-term funding bill that will reopen the federal government temporarily (Stage One). Now the House must pass it (Stage Two), and it's not clear that the lunatic fringe (House Freedom Caucus) will cooperate. If they do, it still needs Donny Trumpery's signature (Stage Three).

It remains to be seen whether the Senate Democrats made a shrewd calculation that will pay dividends. Any time Democrats make an effort to work constructively with steaming fecal matter like Chinless Wonder, Cheese Prince, and Donny Trumpery, nothing can be taken for granted, and failure is definitely an option.
