Stupid liberal idea of the day

Arruckus. Doon. The Dessert Planet.

Well, in four short years he’s gone from Marxist to messiah to god-emperor. Sandworm seems like the next logical step.

On the other hand, “regulated” and “controlled” apparently mean the same as “slippery slope”. Maybe they all have a common latin root or something.

We got one!

Maxine Waters says 170 million jobs could be lost due to sequestration.

So, basically, pretty much everyone will be unemployed?

Is it reasonable to think that she probably meant to say 170 thousand? I’m genuinely asking this, no snark intended.

Yes, it is reasonable. But don’t look for reason here… this will get filed in the same place as the “Obama thinks there are 57 states” meme.

She might be including jobs overseas.

I was about to ask if Maxine Waters counts, but if we’re counting Todd Aiken and Virginia Foxx in the other thread…

She really meant to say “Eleventy Billion”

She’s certainly liberal.

I was thinking in terms of how everything coming out of that woman’s mouth is stupid.

You know, like Todd Aiken and Virginia Foxx.

Low hanging fruit is still fruit.

maybe she meant blow jobs or hand jobs. Though with all the extra time, I would think that hand jobs, at least, would increase.

Best Explanation Ever!

While I could just about see that explanation being the actual truth, I’m not sure one could legitimately give him the benefit of the doubt. That’s a hell of an oopsy.

That sounds exactly like what a drunk person would say and think is clever…

I don’t understand that explanation at all. AT ALL. And I’m a very imaginative person!

“I don’t know her name or where she is from, but I want to personally apologize to her… over dinner. Seriously, anyone got her name?”

“I have an acre of land in the Everglades… where we could totally camp out. It’d be romantic”

Shy people are often encouraged to come out of their shells by spending time alone with total strangers who have access to large tracts of isolated swampland. I thought everybody knew that.

I don’t understand the revised statement, but the original statement is slightly better in context. It appears that the girl in question had just made the statement that she overcame a fear of snakes. So I think its possible that the Hewett was just teasing the girl by claiming he had a literal snake right there in the room, not meaning to be sexual at all. But on the other hand it could be that it was just to big an opening for a double entendre that he couldn’t resist.

I took it as variant of “pull the other one, it’s got bells on it.”

He didn’t think she was bashful.

I have heard the expression, “If you’re X, I’ve got a snake under my chair.” The fact that he said it to a young girl and said “desk” instead of chair, moved it from expressing his doubt regarding her bashfulness to “Would you like some candy, little girl?” territory.

Definitely a case of bypassing brain while engaging mouth.
