Friday Stuff

(By the way, kudos to our law enforcement agencies for this...I'm sure this clown is shocked that a bunch of supposedly chicken liberals decided to get out of the way and let the cops do the job they're trained to do.)

If stuff like this is what it takes to kick 46 of our U.S. Senators in the ass, then so be it…



…including this moron (here) – Earth to Ted Cruz: Manchin-Toomey specifically (and stupidly) prohibits the creation of a federal gun registry (anyone who voted for this assclown should not be allowed to procreate)…



Update 4/20/13: And here is more "double standard" BS from Cruz and his fellow Repug in the U.S. House, Bill Flores.

…and John Fugelsang chimed in with what I thought were some appropriate words here…



…and in a related vein, kudos to Sir Paul for this (appropriate I guess since I started the week with a Beatle tune – kind of describes how I feel I suppose).

Thursday Stuff

As a Roman Catholic, I must tell you that I know a thing or two about guilt (insert your own punch line here), so I definitely give Joe Scar props for inflicting some of it here on those 46 cretins in the U.S. Senate who voted against the wishes of 90 percent of this country on Toomey-Manchin (and if you think Scar is wrong, read the comments to this video on YouTube and try not to lose your lunch)…



…and as noted here, at least one of them is thoroughly unrepentant (and another class move by Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao is here)…



…and Chris Hayes takes CNN to task for some of its utterly wretched reporting on the Boston Marathon tragedy here, though they had a lot of company (fortunately, there has been progress, as noted here…and by the way, the Ricin guy is apparently an Elvis impersonator, seriously - finally found the link)…

…and I’m in the mood to turn things down a notch or two – I think this does the trick.

Wednesday Stuff

(I also posted here.)

Yes, this is the fault of the Repugs who utterly caved to the gun lobby, as usual, but this is also the fault of Harry Reid, who wouldn’t change the filibuster rules.

I’ll admit that Toomey-Manchin had problems, particularly that stupid wording about making a federal gun registry illegal, but 90 percent of the country wanted it, as President Obama tells us. Except for the cowardice of the senators in “the world’s greatest deliberative body” who opposed it, it would be on its way to becoming law.

Though the primary opponents were Republicans, four Democrats opposed it also (with their support, it would have passed). All who opposed it should be voted out of office, and I don’t care what party they belong to (here)…

…and yeah, lack of campaign finance reform is part of this mess too…



…and kudos to Gabby Giffords for this (and by the way, “Instapundit,” f*ck you)…

Update 1 4/18/13: I don't care if he pitches for our team or not - Papelbon is still an idiot for this.

Update 2 4/18/13: Yep, no problem with letting terrorists and other mental defectives have all the guns they want, but boy, you’d damn well better whip the fear of God into these two law-abiding women whose only alleged offense was to communicate the feelings of the vast majority of this nation (here).

…but for now, the gun rules over all, still.

Tuesday Stuff

So Americans have become “complacent” about terrorism, Sen. Mr. Elaine Chao (here)?



You mean, like this American…

…or this one…

…or this one…

…or this one, you morally bankrupt, sanctimonious, delusional windbag (and that’s the nice version of what I really wanted to say)…

…though, as noted here, the Senate Minority Leader truly is representative of his political party (kudos to Joe Madison for mentioning the Fairness Doctrine and media consolidation)…

…oh, and I was wondering what happened to this idiot – Carton basically got run out of town by the Philadelphia Flyers and Ed Snider for “reporting” on allegations that former Flyer Eric Lindros was pals with reputed mobster Joey Merlino…all kinds of stupid were on display in that sorry episode…



…and yep , they sure are.

Monday Stuff

On the subject of the explosions at the Boston Marathon, the AP is reporting from here that a third explosion took place at the JFK Library, and the reported casualty count to date is two dead and over 100 injured (prayers/sympathies to all).

On CNN, Former Dem U.S. House Rep Jane Harman went on Jake Tapper and mentioned al Qaeda – way too early to go there and thoroughly irresponsible on her part…



Update: The JFK thing was a fire - unrelated...

…returning to more mundane politics, Robert Greenwald quite rightly holds Number 44’s feet to the fire on the issue of prosecuting whistleblowers (here)…



…and Bill Maher tells this country to give peace a chance, as somebody once sang (here)…



…and speaking of his old band, I hope you all get your refunds.
