Also a good garage band name.
Life is bare
Goats and puppies everywhere
Stormy weather, stormy weather
And I just can’t get my book tour together
Oh, I’m weary all the time, the time
So weary all the time
I just learned today that she also read the audiobook. So she had to say the lies and the dog story out loud and still thought they were ok to include.
I guess it’s true that a big part of being one of the deplorables is a near-total lack of self-reflection and a complete inability to understand how other people would reasonably react to your actions and words.
I wonder how anyone so deeply blighted could prosper in a social world.
I don’t think they do prosper. I mean, some of them end up on top of the scrum sort of by default, but I don’t think deplorables actually enjoy their lives. They have grievances, fear, anger, hate, and constantly look for more of the same. They are real-life Sith, without the special effects.
I like the quote from John Cleese when someone tried to insult him with the term “snowflake”.
‘Yes I’ve heard this word. I think sociopaths use it in an attempt to discredit the notion of empathy.’
People like Kristi Noem simply do not know what empathy is. They cannot grasp it at all - it’s outside of their abiilty to understand. They perceive it as weakness.
She likely cannot begin to understand why people are so worked up about her shooting a puppy in the face.
Someone did ask her about that. Her PR team must have been so excited to come up with the “I don’t talk about my discussions with world leaders” deflection as if she is being bullied into doing so. Perfect Republican victimhood.
As I said yesterday about Kim Jung Un being in her audiobook:
Hey, c’mon ! It’s an easy mistake to make. Which of us, hasn’t, at one time or another, gotten mixed up and remembered meeting with a foreign head of state when nothing of the kind had ever happened?
I’m surprised that she has enough residual sense to evade either of the plausible answers (“I made it up” or “I met some high muckitimuck from that part of the world and all those people look alike to me”).
Yeah, like that one time I was at a charity event and some whacked-out umpire body tackled the Queen of England. Apparently I was misremembering events from a documentary I had seen years ago.
This is becoming an episode of Family Guy.
Totally. I honestly thought that I used to date Vladimir Putin, and I told a bunch of people about it — but it turned out I was just misremembering.
Really, governorship is the highest office this twit should ever attain. She doesn’t have what it takes for national office. Talk about zero self-awareness!
The way this train wreck is going, I expect Cricket to turn up alive any day now.

When I was first elected, my handlers told me “Gov
Never hate something that the voters love”
But I shot a dog in Pierre just to watch it die
When I see my numbers dropping, I hang my head and cry

The way this train wreck is going, I expect Cricket to turn up alive any day now.
There’s a patch of ground in Ludlow, Maine I’d like to recommend…
