The Answers Are Blowing In The Wind


It looks, after the first presidential debate, as if the answers to the questions that are put to Donald Trump are blowing in the wind, but not coming from the candidate. How could the Republican Party have nominated this man to run for president?

Sol and Winter Solstice


And so it begins; the yearly nonsense over "Happy Holidays" and "Merry Christmas". It really doesn't matter, I suppose, as long as you remember to keep Sol in Winter Solstice!

Favorite Commercial Of 2012

What totally weird and crazy stuff we have seen on TV in 2012! When I was young, people were usually too repressed and concerned with maintenance of their facades to say the things on national television that come across the airwaves now! From all of 2012's entertaining and amusing offerings, I'm gonna have to say that Obama's campaign advertisement after the first presidential debate with Romney, calling out Romney on his silly comments about cutting the funding for public television and Big Bird is my favorite commercial of 2012!

Romney Does Not Know Why He Lost

Mitt Romney still can't get over the fact that, in order to be the president, one must win an election. He also does not understand that while a large number of Americans, in his estimation, forty-seven percent....but probably a lot more.......are not important to Mormon whoremongers such as himself, their votes actually ARE important during a presidential election. Instead of looking at all the ways he alienated the American public, he has chosen to continue his dumbass rhetoric about the legendary "forty-seven percent", this time stating that President Obama gave "gifts" to minorities, or somehow, through his policymaking,"bought" their allegiance. If that's truly the case, perhaps ol' Mitt should have taken that into account before he decided that he wanted to be their (the forty-seven percent's) president. Because last Tuesday, he discovered that the White House is not for sale, and that it's also not for Mitt Romney.

The biggest reason Mitt Romney did not get elected has to do with his mouth. He opened it too many times. And on those occasions, the stuff that came out was frightnin'. Three times that stand out in my memory are his "corporations are people, too, my friend" comment; the debate he had with Newt Gingrich during which he began his dialogue with a comment about Gingrich's love life; and, of course, the famous remark about the forty-seven percent of Americans....and how they are people who do not matter because they do not fall into a catagory that enables the IRS to tax them at a rate that would make their opinions or lives count inasmuch as Mitt Romney is concerned. Of course, there was all of Romney's flip-flopping on issues and policies, there were the tax returns he would not show the public, there were the emails and other records from his governorship he hid or destroyed, there was his wife and her spoiled, selfish demeanor, and his lack of manners during all three presidential debates, his lies during all three debates...right in Obama's face; and many, many more problems with his character and performance as governor. He also tried to play the birth certificate card. And then....Hurricane Sandy....Mitt Romney ran away to Ohio, canceled a rally, then sent his aides to buy five thousand dollars with of odds and ends from a local Walmart, then held his "rally" anyway, so that he could pose with the untransportable goods. Then he threw the stuff he told everyone he was going to donate to storm victims in the trash. Why? Because the Red Cross could not transport it. The Red Cross also told Romney that they needed donations of cash and blood. But did we see anyone on Team Romney donating blood? I sure didn't. Romney lost the election because he is a liar and a sham, and the American people were able to see it.

Obama didn't give the "forty-seven percent" anything besides the best government he could. Obama won the election because he is interested in running this country, for everyone; not just fifty-three percent of us. He also won because more people voted for him. More people from the "forty-seven percent" imaginary demographic, and from the "fifty-three percent" imaginary demographic. I do not believe any corporations voted, though.

More Post Election Fun And Ann Romney Flipping The Bird

 
Big Bird can heave a sigh of relief; his job on Sesame Street is safe. The people also spoke clearly about repealing prohibition laws and recognizing gay marriage. The disparaged forty-seven percent of Americans who do not matter to the Romneys have made it quite clear that the Romneys do not matter to them, either. Big Bird does, though. It has also been established, with the defeat of Mitt Romney and his money, that corperations are not actually people, so American citizens do not have to worry about the interests of corperations becoming more important than the votes of the people.

For the past couple of weeks, there have been hits to this blog searching for still shots or video footage of Ann Romney's face after the second debate her husband had with our President. Here is a video clip of it, complete with Mrs. Pious Mormon Lady Romney giving Barack Obama the finger after the debate!

Ann Coulter, Another Reason To Vote Democrat

 
This is Ann Coulter, conservative political commentator and professional bigot, posed with a recent tweet she made after the third presidential debate between Romney and Obama. Obama called Romney out on at least half a dozen lies, gave Romney a lesson on military strategy, and kept Romney on the defense most of the evening. In short, Obama won the debate. This was to be expected, since Obama had clearly done his homework before the debate, and has clearly done his job for the past four years. Mitt Vote-For-Me- Because-I'm-White Romney neither had answers or honesty in any of the debates, and he was unprepared for a discussion with Obama. Having learned his lesson after being told to sit down and be quiet during the second debate, Romney decided to behave this time. And so......we got to hear the nasty comment from Ann Coulter. Here's a letter she got from a man with Downs Syndrome.

John Franklin Stephens

Dear Ann Coulter,
Come on Ms. Coulter, you aren’t dumb and you aren’t shallow. So why are you continually using a word like the R-word as an insult?
I’m a 30 year old man with Down syndrome who has struggled with the public’s perception that an intellectual disability means that I am dumb and shallow. I am not either of those things, but I do process information more slowly than the rest of you. In fact it has taken me all day to figure out how to respond to your use of the R-word last night.
I thought first of asking whether you meant to describe the President as someone who was bullied as a child by people like you, but rose above it to find a way to succeed in life as many of my fellow Special Olympians have.
Then I wondered if you meant to describe him as someone who has to struggle to be thoughtful about everything he says, as everyone else races from one snarkey sound bite to the next.
Finally, I wondered if you meant to degrade him as someone who is likely to receive bad health care, live in low grade housing with very little income and still manages to see life as a wonderful gift.
Because, Ms. Coulter, that is who we are – and much, much more.
After I saw your tweet, I realized you just wanted to belittle the President by linking him to people like me. You assumed that people would understand and accept that being linked to someone like me is an insult and you assumed you could get away with it and still appear on TV.
I have to wonder if you considered other hateful words but recoiled from the backlash.
Well, Ms. Coulter, you, and society, need to learn that being compared to people like me should be considered a badge of honor.
No one overcomes more than we do and still loves life so much.
Come join us someday at Special Olympics. See if you can walk away with your heart unchanged.
A friend you haven’t made yet,
John Franklin Stephens

This letter is a lot more intelligently written than anything I have ever heard from Ann Coulter. Ann Coulter has given all of us one more reason to vote Democrat, as far as I'm concerned.

Ann Romney Can't Dig

 
Gotta love the expression on Ann Romney's face after her husband lost the debate on Tuesday night. She looked like she really thought that Obama OWED her husband a victory, even if her husband did not win! My my, Ann! What has a life of too much privilege and not enough work done to you? Are you completely unable to "dig all jive", or do you hate Langston Hughes, too?

Hooray For Candy Crowley!

I think I have a new favorite female news person! Candy Crawley apparently does not care how much money Mitt Romney has, does not care how elevated he is within his silly cult organization, and does not give a rip about the fact that he has been getting away with bullying and lying all his life. It was wonderful to watch her work last night. She just told Romney to "sit"...something his mother should have tried!
