The repubs are right. She should be impeached.
Since strangling is a very personal and difficult way to kill someone, I think Pelosi actually is the lesser of those evils. Right?
Pelosi is no hero of mine, don’t get me wrong, and I don’t find the joke offensive. But there’s something broken in you if you find that genuinely funny. You’re not a psycho or anything, you just don’t understand what is funny about humor and why- if it has the rhythm and pattern of a joke, and the target is correct, you will laugh reflexively. That still doesn’t make it funny.
Edit- I mean the “royal” you here, and not dropzone.
Well, I’m sure next time Der Trihs shares with us his views of the military, everyone defending Feherty will defend him as well.
ETA: I’m going to retract this comment. I have a wicked hangover. It was my birthday last night.
Frencher than French’s? How could *that *be?
No prob; didn’t even notice it. I’m not funny and realize it, though it doesn’t stop me from trying.
The “cure” is a hair from the dog that bit ya, bro. Have one on me.
Heads up on the possible next Stupid Republican Attack of the Day*: grumblings about President Obama’s asking for a screening of the new Star Trek movie. So far (as far as I know) the whining has only appeared at RedState (which is a slightly more intelligent brand of stupid, which isn’t saying much, because they’re all a bunch of loonballs too, but compared to the freepers they’re geniuses), and I’m not going to link to RedState, so I’ll link to the post at DU that referenced it.
I realize that President Obama is the first president to ever screen movies at the White House (well, other than Woodrow Wilson, Warren Harding, Calvin Coolidge, Herbert Hoover, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush) but really, it’s not that big a deal. He is a Star Trek fan, and it’s not like he can go down to the local multiplex to catch it without the Secret Service causing a big stir, which would get complained about too. Hey, I saw it, it’s a fantastic movie. I can’t blame President Obama for wanting to see it too.
*that is, if President Obama’s funny and surprisingly pointed barbs made at the White House Correspondents Dinner don’t cause a bunch of heads to explode first. By the time his jokes get hashed out and gnashed over (with some vitriol thrown Wanda Sykes’ way too), the screening might be forgotten.
Prime Directive? Aliens working together? A Russian on the bridge? Interracial kisses? The episode where one guy is half-black and half-white and the other is half-white and half-black? Hippie-dippie shit if you ask me.
I reach that, brother!
Obviously, a man who is a fan of this “Science Fictional Entertainment” can’t be counted on to maintain his grip on reality. Next thing you know he’ll be playing Dragons and Dungeons and summoning demons in the White House*.

*Unless he IS actually from Hell, as some have speculated, in which case that would probably be redundant.
Stupid Republican Meme of the Day
(which others will probably pick up once they stop whining about Wanda Sykes)
Started by duly elected loonball Pete “We could learn a lot from the Taliban insurgency!” Sessions:
And now picked up by the Leader of the Republican Party himself, Rush Limbaugh:
So, it’s all a Grand Plan by President Obama! Plunge the country into Darkness, give all the white people’s money to the blacks, then Take Over (for life, I assume)! Brilliant!
Koo koo Koo koo Koo koo.
It’s nice to know I was wrong about the Star Trek screening though. Damn, I bet RedState is mad they couldn’t get that one going.
I for one welcome our Black Muslim Socialist Fascist Trekkie overlords.
Ditto!
Were they always this crazy? Or was I just not paying attention?
The latter. In the past, though, they were more comfortable crazies, and generally spoke with well-modualted voices, giving the appearance of sanity. Now they’re getting desperate and more shrill, and hence they sound crazier.
Has anyone mentioned the special RNC meeting to approve a resolution to rebrand the Democratic Party as the “Democrat Socialist Party?” When even Michael Steele can see that your idea is stupid, it’s really stupid.
That is the Stupid Republican Idea of the Century. Actually, it might just be the Stupid Idea of the Century.
I might write to the DNC and suggest that they pass a resolution redesignating the Republican Party as the Republican Douchebag Party.
Wow. That’s monumentally stupid. Why don’t they just go ahead and rebrand the Democratic Party as the Democratic Socialist Nanny-Nanny Boo-Boo We Don’t Like You You Big Poopy-Heads Party while they’re at it.
This story has been floating around for a few weeks, so it doesn’t really count as today’s stupid idea. But it really is a primo stupid idea. Calling a special meeting for the specific purpose of trashing the other party, and apparently with nothing else on the agenda.
I must say this is one of my favorite ongoing threads. The Republicans are entertaining me every single day, and often exceeding their daily quota of one stupid idea.
For historical reference, John Stuart Mill once labeled the Tories “The Stupid Party”.
