Monday Stuff

“Worst Persons” (K.O. is back to tell us of Charles Payne somehow trying to claim that, well, y’know, poor people really aren’t poor because they get gout…OK, genius, let me clue you in on something – this hits me where I live because, in addition to the causes for the affliction that Keith mentions, namely diet and hypertension, there is also a hereditary component to it, and as someone who has suffered with it from time to time, I can testify that it can attack ANYONE regardless of income; Repug Indiana Secretary of State Charlie White, from the political party that has made a living from yelling about the virtually nonexistent threat of voter fraud, gets convicted of – wait for it! – VOTER FRAUD, and faces 3 to 18 years in the gray bar hotel – nice work; but Repug U.S. House Rep John Fleming of Louisiana takes top “honors” for taking a story on The Onion seriously about Planned Parenthood and abortion, though the three percent figure is correct (here, Fleming claimed the teabaggers are getting a bad rap from those dastardly libs, and here, he blamed Obama for our troop withdrawal from Iraq when it was negotiated under the SOFA, and he also cried poor mouth since he could ONLY make 400 grand as a U.S. House Rep – you Louisiana voters who elected this meat sack must be so proud)...



…and speaking of abortion, I think this is a good opportunity to put up this tune – sorry, no video; I’m sure Hendrix had no political inclination whatsoever behind it.
