Stupid Republican idea of the day

[Bricker]

I saw the crowd at the Washington Monument, and it absolutely exceeded ten to thirty people.

Hee, the guy with the bullhorn at Operation American Spring had his voice crack really badly when he tried to say “We need to SPEAK UP!”

[wonky]

And now they have someone in blackface.

@dropzone

And you nearly released Yog-Sothoth. Y’all didn’t think that one through, didja? Like that attempt to free him on 9/11. Absolutely insane.

Tch. Wrong Elder Thing. The one below the Pentagon is Shub-Niggurath, or, as it came to be known in the modern age, Shub-Internet.

Far less amusing but topical anyway: Wolfeboro NH police commissioner uses N-word for the President.

“For this, I do not apologize – he meets and exceeds my criteria for such.”

No report on what those criteria are - but if even the President cannot escape meeting them, then …

Hope the OAS people are not going all CT on us now

(4 O.A.S. Live Stream Links: Operation American Spring Live Stream Right Here, Right Now! | Alternative | Before It's News)”]**Attention folks: The live stream feed is having technical difficulties, they are working on the feed at this time. This feed will be restored shortly.

Imagine that everyone, the live feed was taken down as soon as they demanded Obama be impeached or resign from office. Col. Riley was about to speak on behalf of OAS when the live feed was taken down.

Is this how they are going to silence the internet? Stay tuned, the live feed should be able to be restored. Thank you Everyone. Josey.

The Live Feed Has Been Restored, please share this Live Feed all weekend. TY**

I’m sure his criteria are strictly guided by science. You know, ratios and all that other mathematical stuff. The only question left regarding his criteria is: 1/16th, or more, or less?

1776: “These are the times that try men’s souls: The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”

2014: “Hell, it’s raining. Let’s go to Wal-Mart instead.”

Dear President Obama:
Please do not silence the internet. Please use every resource to ensure that the live feed stays active. I haven’t laughed so hard since they shot Old Yeller.

I’m a UK mutt and I probably meet his criteria.

That’s usually that many homeless people around. Are you sure it wasn’t just them? Or a tour group from Salt Lake?

This one seems legit. The story suggests they are being shamelessly tweeted to death. If I lived in the area, I would feel like going down there to hand out cookies. Because, they are like little Ewoks or something.

Obnoxious, ultimately irrelevant but useful to millionaires for soulless exploitative cash-in purposes ?

[BrainGlutton]

It rather reminds one of Coxey’s Army of 1894.

Coxey and other leaders of the movement were arrested the next day for walking on the grass of the United States Capitol. Interest in the march and protest rapidly dwindled.[4]

[Lacunae_Matata]

You just wait until the Hoverround and JazzyScooter brigades finish recharging their chairs and get through the line at Golden Corral! Shock and awe at the Washington Monument, y’all!

I laughed out loud. I cannot tell a lie.

Wa Times: Operation American Spring falls flat: ‘This is very disappointing,’ Texan says

“We were getting over two inches of rain in hour in parts of Virginia this morning,” Mr. Milton said. “Now it’s a nice sunny day. But this is a very poor turnout. It ain’t no millions. And it ain’t looking like there’s going to be millions. Hundreds is more like it.”
…
“This isn’t just the one day thing,” Mr. Milton said. “Most of our group [126 from Texas] are going to stay most of the weekend. And when the bikers come in, there will much more. I know Connecticut’s here. I know Colorado’s here. I think Utah, maybe.”

He also said the some of the planned Operation American Spring members who were planning to head to Washington, D.C., instead traveled to Nevada, to give support to cattle rancher Cliven Bundy
…
“A lot that were supposed to come here went there instead,”

I always knew Libertarianism was a sham philosophy and merely a tool of class warfare on the part of aristocrat types. Now we have proof!

The first person I ever heard espouse Libertarianism was my brother. This is someone who never moved out of our mother’s house, and has never had a job more difficult than a paper route. I think some part of it, among some people, is to avoid having to accept their own limitations. “I’m not a billionaire living in a penthouse? It must be because the government is holding me back!”

Looking at the picture of her and her date, I don’t think her dress was the problem.

Well, I am told that the party really lightened up after they left but, at least, he got his money back.

Either way, this is the excuse the organizers seem to be going with for now and it says volumes that they feel comfortable sticking with that.
