Arlen Specter: From RINO to DINO

Except to the extent that this defection causes wingnut heads to explode, I'm unimpressed.

Another "Blue Dog" is hardly what we need right now. And Arlen can be relied upon to fight only for Arlen; first, last and exclusively.

Now, if this nets our side, say, a Sen. Olympia Snow, then I'm impressed. Slippery slope and all.

As an indication of the decline of the crazy right's hegemony over the party of Lincoln, well, it's better than nothin'.

Although, it is far better than Sen. Phil Spector (Looney Party, CA.)

(Is it just me, or is there a resemblence?)

Energy Secretary puzzled by simpleton's question

The jaw-dropping stupidity and ignorance on display here serves as further proof that Texas secession would be a positive boon to the other 49 states.

Think of it: Test scores would go up, crime rates would go down, intolerance would be contained south of the relocated border fence and much, much more.

Hey Texass, don't let Nawlins hit ya in the ass on ur way out, y'all.

Good grief, catch you later.....

Teabagger Logic - Kevin Siers

(Click to Embiggen)

From Kevin Siers/Charlotte Observer

From NOM (nom), to 2M4M, to "Teabagging", I have been absolutely LMAO for weeks now.

These morans are so clueless, so lacking in self-awareness that it boggles the mind. Check out the claims of total victory over the 'Usurper' and his enablers at any teabag site. Just, wow.

Not at all funny are the calls for revolution, insurrection or armed rebellion coming from asshats like Beck, Hannity, Goldberg, Malkin or Colter. Fox has blood on it's corporate hands already. Is it not enough?

I recall someone saying once that elections have consequences. So when the right doesn't just lose but is repudiated their response is a call to arms?!?!? Liars and hypocrites? Absolutely! Patriots? Ahem, sadly, no.

Any claim they make to a higher form of patriotism is pure bull. The real danger to our nation is on the right, not the left.

Catch you later.....

P.S. According to David Letterman, Limbaugh's dog is praying for Bo Obama to fail as first dog.
