Aren't they adorable?!?

Wingnuts Killing Cops

When the leader of the republican party says "shoot," you shoot.

The wingnuts were strangely silent about the Pittsburgh cop-killer.

I gave it a few days, then wandered over to the usual suspects. It didn't take long to come across this bit of idiocy. Here's what Buggs Bunny's Evil Twin has to say about the person he believes was the cop-killer's main influence:

He is so far out that he falls into that rare but true category. Of being so far out that he is in bed with those on the far out left. They are but two peas in a pod.

So, instead of considering the notion that wingnuts can be influenced and provoked by daily spew of folks like Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, O'Reilley, and others, our clueless friend simply twists himself into a pretzel and points his finger in the opposite direction.

Dude. You wanna know who the cop killers are? Listen to the garbage on talk radio and cable TV. Turn a critical eye to the wingnut sites you read every day.

All hail, Dark Lord Kos!

Hey, you're a normal guy, right? And you have FOX News on your cable, right? You might not watch it, but it's not like you went out and subscribed specially to this nutty, fringe channel, right? So it must be "normal" stuff on there. Because it's just regular, basic cable. They all wear suits and sit at desks. So it's not nutter stuff. If it was, they'd be wearing camouflage or something, right? And if it was really weird, a normal guy like you wouldn't have it on their basic cable, right? They have... rules about stuff like that. Somewhere. Don't they? They wouldn't just put crazy-ass bullshit on regular basic cable, right? Where kids and nutbars could see it?

All hail, David Waldman, minion of our Dark Lord, Kos.

Great News for John McCain

Terri Nenendorf, right and LaDonna Kyle both of Des Moines, partners, kiss outside the Judicial Building on Friday morning after the announcement of the Iowa Supreme Court decision on same sex marriages.

The Iowa Supreme Court this morning unanimously upheld gays’ right to marry.“The Iowa statute limiting civil marriage to a union between a man and a woman violates the equal protection clause of the Iowa Constitution,” the justices said in a summary of their decision.The court rules that gay marriage would be legal in three weeks, starting April 24.

George W. Bush Miserable Death Watch – Day 65

Breaking - George W. Bush not yet reported dead.

I first predicted that this worthless sack of shit would kill himself with alcohol, then revised it slightly to predict a number of alcohol-related ways he’d die.

I’m standing by my prognostications, and am now going on record with specifics:

• George W. Bush will be dead within five (5) years of leaving office
• His death will be self-inflicted and alcohol-related

For the purposes of calculation, the George W. Bush Miserable Death Watch start date was January 20, 2009. The “deadline” for my prediction is January 19, 2014. I’ve calculated 1826 total days in that interim, based on (5 x 365 days) + 1 additional day for 2012 (Leap Year). That makes today Day #65. Please synchronize your calendars…NOW.

There’s a pretty broad range of alcohol-related causes of death in the catalog. I’m also hedging slightly with regard to how George W. Bush’s death will be by his own hand, and while a straight-ahead suicide is not out of the question, it’s more likely that George W. Bush will simply let himself go to shit, stay drunk most of the time, and end up dying miserably in such a way that both the booze and his personal responsibility are obvious to all.

I hope to interview a pathologist at some point, in order to share with you the professional consensus opinion on exactly what findings would be needed at autopsy to make these determinations.

There may also be an old episode of Law and Order out there that could shed some light on the matter. If you find the appropriate scene on YouTube, please send me the link. I’ll embed it and give you full credit. Instant fame.

Until then, here’s the start of a working list of the possible forms that FratBoy’s final exit could take. Please add any that I’ve missed in the comments section, and I’ll be sure to update the list as we move forward.

It's What Wingnuts Do

They only throw it when they're not eating it

So, I'm poking through the g-list wingnut sites (even added a coupla new ones to my blogroll) when I come across this little doozy from one of my favorites:

Sen. Judd Gregg gave a scary-yet-accurate picture of what America’s fiscal outlook will look like blah blah blah scary black negro president blah blah blah socialist teleprompters fart (snip) Folks, this is from the guy Obama first nominated to be our Treasury Secretary.

Uhm....that's not quite right, sweetie.

But, c'mon, seriously - Treasury, Commerce...who cares? It's still all about money and shit, right?

Meanwhile, the usual half-wits have been too busy with such run-on sentences insightful comments as "This is what happens when you have hippies from the 60’s, who become economic advisors, and druggies form the 70’s, both who never learned how good morals and ethics in a society and the importance of the economic wheels creat a profitable opportunity for people and businesses to grow, running your country." to notice call attention to such a basic factual error.

I think Sparkie's lil' buddy, Dewey, said it best: Smartest thing he's EVER did was to turn that job down.

Rightwingsparkle: Runnin' With the Big Dogs

Rightwingsparkle observes the first Friday of Lent

with a Dirty Sanchez and a Dirty Martini

Well, it looks like our little lady might just be earning herself a sinecure on the wingnut welfare gravy train, having just returned from this year's howlfest. I mean, how else to explain a junket whose costs include rountrip airfare from Houston to Washington, DC; several nights at the Omni Shoreham Hotel; and all the mini-quiches and gin that you can stuff down your throat in 48 hours?

Sparkie's either collecting subsidies for her shitty little blog, picking up some extra on the side, or has an allowance any other pampered housewife with too much time on her hands might kill for.
