Stupid Republican idea of the day

It’s good to see that Mr. Huelskamp has his eye on what’s really important here - his own job security.

Elucidator has started calling the Teapublicans the Insane Clown Posse. I thought it was a nice bit of hyperbole at first, but now it seems prosaically descriptive.

On review, I should mention that the link to Daily Currant is on Brain Glutton’s story, not GIGObuster’s.

That is all.

Boehner to Tea Party: Shut Yourself Down

Oh, I’m aware. I’m just saying people who make these sorts of comparisons should be sold into slavery to get a notion of what it fucking means, is all.

Consider me chastised. :o

The two factions of the Republican Party need to settle their differences according to established tradition.

“If both survive the lirpa, combat shall continue with the ahn woon…”

I prefer the “two parties enter, one party leaves” tradition.

I bet I’m not the only one who heard trumpets right after we read that.

House Republicans have time to sing all three verses of Amazing Grace.

Good funeral song, but I’m surprised in this instance they didn’t sing Onward Christian Soldiers.

Afterall, they have to prove they’re good Christians.

From the linked article.

And more religion.
You’re Off the Hook Democrats: Ted Cruz Says the Government Shutdown is ‘God’s Will’ (Video)

“Well, David, you know at every stage, my prayer to God is that his will be done. As it will be,” Cruz said in reply to a reporter’s question.

I suddenly know who Ted Cruz reminds me of.

Toonces.

O embleer Frith!

So, the GOP fucked up and he’s mad at the Democrats for not saving them! It’s now official, we have a high-ranking GOP (the party of personal responsibility) member of the Senate asking for a bailout from the Democrats (party of federal giveaways).

This quote should be mandatory on every ballot that has a Republican on it, so that even the “real Americans” can see just how fucking hypocritical and stupid these people are.

Are we talking about the same Jesus here? The one I learned about in Sunday School, with the radiant auburn hair, perfectly trimmed beard? Loved all the little children of the world, wouldn’t fucking dream of bogarting their food? Their fucking baby formula!

Now, Lord, I know I haven’t been a very good Methodist. Or much of anything else, for that matter. Just as a PR hint, though, a practical suggestion. Not quibbling with the whole love and mercy thing, totally right on about that.

But, you know, maybe just one little smiting? Break out all over in boils during a press conference. Really, go a long way, I bet. No need for the gurgling liquefaction, like the Nazis opening the Ark. Just a good sound smiting, Tough love. Eternal, but tough.

Anyway, just a suggestion.

Based on their track record both in and out of power, not a chance.

Offering a friendly amen-dment: Preferably, O Lord, that classic Biblical smite from Psalm 137:6. The one where his tongue cleaves to the roof of his mouth.

And hey! no splitting hares, here! Hear?

“C’mon,” said the Zombie, “You don’t need BOTH the pituitary AND the Pineal Gland! Give me something! I’m not walking away empty-handed. I deserve something. I don’t know what, but I deserve it!”

“I’ll take a prefontal lobe! Damnit, I’m trying to compromise, and you aren’t willing to make a move at all!”

Straight to Hell. C ya there.
