Democrats

Stewart: Beyond the Palin

Satirical piece by the Daily Show on how Democrats can still mess things up in Delaware and essentially hand the seat over to tea partier Christine O’Donnell:

The best part is the nightmare scenario:

OLIVER: It’s a good point, but please, gentlemen, I appreciate your speculation, but you’re forgetting that the Democrats are a dynamic, innovative party, constantly thinking of new ways to f*ck up a sure thing.

I believe the Democrats will try to usurp the Tea Party’s folksiness by throwing a working man-themed fundraiser, where the likes of Sean Penn and Barbra Streisand dine on panko-crusted mahi mahi in the back of will.i.am’s stretch Prius.

Whilst the bald eagle they rented to provide a patriotic flair attacks a group of nearby handicapped schoolchildren, forcing the frontrunning can’t-lose Democratic candidate to beat that bald eagle to death in front of live television cameras with the nearest large book he can find, which is….

STEWART: Don’t say it.

OLIVER: You know it, a Koran.

I ♥ John Oliver.

Grayson on core liberal values

Alan Grayson, the delightfully incendiary* freshman representative for Florida, talks about his core values with Glenn Greenwald:

You can find more interviews here on Facebook.

*He’s mocked the Republicans over their “healthcare”, said they’d ban bacon if Obama ate a BLT & has also pretty much told Dick Cheney to STFU during an interview with Chris Matthews.

Reid chastises people for disliking DINOs

Harry Reid has decided to address the outrage some of us have expressed over Democratic senators organizing against the party.  And being the rotten fucking coward that he is, this is what he said (via: Think Progress):

I think it’s very unwise and not helpful," Reid said Friday morning. "These groups should leave them alone. It’s not helpful to me. It’s not helpful to the Democratic Caucus.”

Got that? Democratic groups who want democratic politicians to cease trying to block democratic policies are “very unwise” and “not helpful”.

This is why I do not support the party as a whole and will vote against a Democrat if need be. The Democrats suck at actually being Democrats.

Democrats organize against Obama

The Senate DINO’s have decided to formally unite against Obama:

The members are:

“Leading the new group are Democratic Sens. Evan Bayh of Indiana, Tom Carper of Delaware and Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas… [O]thers joining the group are Sens. Michael Bennet of Colorado, Mark Begich of Alaska, Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Herb Kohl of Wisconsin, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, Claire McCaskill of Missouri, Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Bill Nelson of Florida, Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, Mark Udall of Colorado, and Mark Warner of Virginia.” (source)

Assholes, each & every one.

Obama aids make it clear, atheists suck

DNC_bigots

Update: Dave of NoGod has apparently spoken to one of the men who participated in the rally & is going to to be writing a post about the conversation soon.

Via NoGod comes the story of Obama aids insisting on having the opportunity to make it clear that atheists are not welcome on the Obama bus at a recent presidential rally in Pennsylvania.

Here’s the run down.

A couple of Pennsylvanians recently attended a presidential rally in their home state where they submitted a question for McCain’s representatives about how McCain is going to reach out to the eight or so percent of Pennsylvanians who are atheists, agnostics and humanists.

McCain’s people said McCain would be everyone’s president regardless if they have faith or not.

The moderator then proceeded to ask another question of Obama’s representatives who insisted upon being allowed to answer the same question.  And they got ugly.

Don Miller pointed out that Obama has advisers for every group but atheists and agnostics and stated that there were no grand efforts to reach out to “a group of pagans”.

D. Paul Monteiro spoke of Obama’s religious beliefs and how he said “no” to people who wanted his support on church and state issues. He then followed it up by stating that Obama was not “some crazy wacko atheist trying to make sure that your children grow up to marry trees”.

These are not random assholes popping off at the mouth on their own time, but paid representatives of Obama and the DNC in their official capacities saying this kind of shit.  Imagine the firestorm it would’ve caused if it was any other group but atheists.

Such a class act

I <3 Hillary Clinton.  Seriously and completely.  It has nothing to do with politics as she’s rather right of me.  However, she’s a class act as shown by this video:

I dread November 5, 2008.  I so do not want to wake up (I’m getting up there and plan to get wasted Nov. 4th which means I’ll be asleep by 10PM) and find out John McCain pulled off a win. I have my issues with Obama, but McCain? All I can say is “Aack!!!”.

ABC hopes you’re dumber than the average rock

naked-mole-rat

What else is there to say about this article besides that? Charles Dolan, head of Cablevision and one of the people named in the article, donated $25K to the RNC in May of 2000 and 2002.  In June 2004 he gave $25K to the RNC.  In 2007 & 2008 he gave thousands to Guiliani, McCain and Thompson.

Does that sound like a dedicated Democrat that is incensed with the Democratic party? How about  Donald Trump who gave Hillary Clinton a wopping $600?  What about Danit Aharon who appears to have given $25K to a group for John McCain in California and $10K to the RNC in addition $2300 to both John McCain’s primary fund and general election fund?

Is it possible that these people are liberals and progressives who’ve had it with the Democratic party? Or is it more likely that these people are Republicans who have donated money to the Democrats for reasons completely unrelated to actually supporting democratic ideas?

And it’s not like the information quoted above is something one has to dig for especially in this day and age.  I found this information utilizing nothing but the names mentioned in the article and this site that lets you look up such information.

So what gives?  Why would ABC put up such an article?  I say it’s because we live in the day and age where the news agencies have taking to creating news not reporting it.  They don’t care if they’re outright lying.  They’re just hoping we don’t catch their asses.

And let’s face it.  A lot of people immediately trust anything they read/see in the news and once the story is out there – well, it’s out there.  The seed is planted.  The seed this time around is this.

The Democratic party is in trouble.  It’s losing people and money, especially money.  It’s just a matter of time before it’s declared dead so don’t even bother getting involved yourself because it’s dying. Dying we said!!!

It’s sort of like feminism.  It’s declared dead or dying every time some dipshit gets in the news for being a dipshit.  The only exception is that the news agencies literally pull dipshits out their asses when it comes to the Democratic party.
