JOE WALSH

Joe Walsh the Republican congressman from Illinois was recently named a "True Blue" member of Congress for his "unwavering commitment and consistent support in defense of life and the family." This honor was bestowed on the esteemed congressman by the Family Research Council.  The only problem with this award to this scumbag is that he allegedly owes his ex-wife and 3 children $117,000 dollars in back child support.  Of course this dirt bag has an explanation for that. He really has paid up, but he has no proof. Or the other explanation is that his wife agreed that he didn’t have to pay. “Walsh also rejected the congressional health insurance plan for his family on principle, much to the chagrin of his current wife, Helene, who had a preexisting condition and needed surgery while the couple was uninsured.”  So much for family values.

This award and the guy they gave it to shows how these right wing goofs think. Do anything you want it doesn’t really matter as long as you vote the right way as to their way of thinking.  Basically what you have in Joe Walsh is a street whore who sells himself to the highest bidder.

JOHN MCCAIN

John McCain former Presidential Candidate and current Republican Senator from Arizona was on a radio sports talk show this morning.  He was there to talk about human growth hormone use in the National Football League.  In the conversation the host Dan Patrick asked him if he had a do over to pick a Vice Presidential running mate would he?  For those who don’t know he chose Sarah Palin.  He basically said no, he thought she did a good job.  He then went on to say he was so proud of running for President and being 5^th from the bottom in his class at the Naval Academy.  This is the way the Republicans think now.  They want to celebrate mediocrity and down play intelligence.  Finally he said it’s hard doing God’s work in the city of Satan.  I don’t know if he was joking or not, but these guys are nuts.

THE GOP IN TURMOIL

Over the past few days there has been several things going on with the GOP.  Rick Perry gave a very strange speech the other day kind of rambling and goofy.  I guess by his standards that would be a normal speech since he is goofy to begin with. 

Herman Cain the non-candidate candidate got himself caught up in a sexual harassment conversation concerning his time at The National Restaurant Association. First he said it was nothing and he didn’t know anything about what happened because he recused himself.  A couple hours later he acknowledged that he knew there was a payoff to keep the women quiet. The money for a non-disclosure agreement seems like a fair deal if you are guilty.

Mitt Romney has been implicated in the Stanford Financial Group Ponzi scheme. I have no idea if this is true. A web site with ties to the scheme has mysteriously deleted any people with ties to Romney including his son.

Michelle Bachmann.  Forget it she really doesn’t matter and has never said anything worth wild.  I guess I have to put the rest of the bunch into that category. Who cares?

GOP DEBATES

Rick Perry the one time front runner for the Republican nomination for President has fallen way down in the polls.  His take on the reason for that is that he hasn’t done very well in the debates. This is one of the few things this guy has been right about, but compared to the other mental midgets running he isn’t that much worse.  His solution to this is that he is thinking about not participating in future debates. This is a guy who wants to be the leader of the free world, and he is afraid to participate in debates.  How does he expect to lead the world?  This should be a big red flag for anyone even thinking of voting for this not ready for prime time player.

As I’m writing this I realize maybe we should thank Rick Perry for boycotting the debates, now if we could get the rest of the mental midgets to do the same it would be so nice. They haven’t had a coherent thought between them since these debates started.

STUPID THINGS

It had been my hope to ignore these so called Presidential want a be’s for a while.  Rick Perry the lone star cowboy who is flat out an idiot had proposed a 20 % flat tax.  He can propose all the stupid things he wants.  The problem when confronted with the fact that it would cost low and middle class people more money, he answered.  “I don’t care about that”  These people that want to be President don’t seem  to understand that they are supposed to  be President to all the people, not just the select few who give him money.

Mitch McConnell who is not running for President, but is the minority leader in the Senate, said the other day it’s not his responsibility to prevent layoffs of firemen  and first responders by raising taxes on businesses.  This moron and he really is a moron doesn’t understand when those businesses start on fire the fireman he didn’t want retained will not be there to put out the fire. This is the guy who said the number 1 job of the GOP is to make President Obama a 1 term President.  The people and country be damned.

Finally I have to mention Michelle Bachmann, she really is a footnote to the campaign now, but that doesn’t mean she can still say stupid things.  There are so many lately, but she suggested if the people who don’t have insurance get sick they will have to rely on charity to have their bills paid, all 50,000,000 of them.

ANOTHER LIE FROM MARCO RUBIO

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL.) has always claimed his parents came to this country in 1959 fleeing from Cuba and Fidel Castro.  Guess what?  Mr. Rubio has a strange take on his family history, and my guess it was for political reasons.  His parents actually came to the United States in 1956 which is before Castro.  He is trying to justify his lie now by saying well   you know they actually tried to move back to Cuba in 1959 so he really is right about them fleeing Castro in 1959. These kind of guys lie all the time and think nothing of it. When they are found out they just assume they can keep their followers in line, and surprising enough a lot of this guy’s followers will probably say, oh, it’s okay Marco, it doesn’t matter that you are a liar and will do anything to further your political career.

COMIC A DAY

A friend of mine who I have worked with the last few years has been working on a comic that he is putting on the internet.  He has worked consistently writing a story line and creating characters.  I wasn’t sure if he would ever get this off the ground, but he has.  The problem he will face is getting people to know it’s out there.  There is a link in my good sites spot on this blog. I would like it if you are into comics in any way to take a look,  and let him know what you think.  Comic a day is the name of this futuristic adventure.
