THE NUMBERS


The republicans ran on the premise that they were all about jobs. It was jobs this and jobs that. Elect us and there will be jobs as far as the eyes can see. More jobs than you can shake a stick at.
JOBS, JOBS, JOBS!!!!!!
That's all we heard, 24/7, 7 days a week, right up to the election. After the election, not a peep. 
Until about March 2011. Then the only "jobs" they want to create have to do with deregulating everything from the banks to the EPA. 

What a great idea!!!! Deregulate the very institutions that have almost single-handedly crashed the worlds economy and deregulate the EPA because the air and water is now so clean and pure. That must be why childhood asthma is increasing, because their lungs can't handle all that clean air. And we don't need all that pesky marine life. It just gets in the way of the oil rigs. Just ask all the fisherman along the gulf coast how good they are doing because an oil rig didn't have the proper shut off valve because Cheney said they didn't have to have it. At least the company saved $500,000 by not installing the valve. Not to mention that the oil makes the shrimp and other seafood slide down easier. The seafood will also be easier to eat because it is smaller and the deformities give it a unique appeal, kind of like the 3 eyed fish on The Simpsons.

Many of the same people that pissed themselves when they found out that that some of the higher wattage incandescent light bulbs were going to be phased out over the next few years and cfl bulbs were going to replace them because the cfl bulbs have MERCURY in them!!! OOOOH, LOOK OUT!! They say if you break one those bulbs it costs thousands of dollars to clean it up. Yeah right, if your an idiot. There are instructions on how to clean it up and the three biggest things are 1. Pick up the glass without cutting yourself. Maybe you could put on a pair of gloves. 2. Open a window and let the room air out for a few minutes, don't vacuum right away.  Here is a link. It is from the EPA, so all of you that don't trust the government, might want to consult Google for other instructions. They are out there and they are the same.
BULB CLEAN UP  




Now to get back on track.One of the reasons that there are no jobs coming from the republicans is that they seem to have pledged allegiance to Grover Norquist and his pledge, over their allegiance to the oath they took when sworn into congress and the senate, and doing what is good for the american people and what is good for the country.

Although I guess I shouldn't be surprised since their pledge to Norquist seems to run hand-in-hand with what Mitch McConnell said...
"The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president."

They seem to be trying their damnedest no matter how foolish, stupid, idiotic or crazy they sound. From Limbaugh to Beck to Fox News all that is going on is fear-mongering, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I'm not going to go on about the anti Obama rhetoric that the conservatives spew out 24/7 because everyone that is not a right wing conservative knows what is going on and realizes how crazy most of it sounds.They even vote against bills that they write and introduce if Obama says he agrees with it. As soon as he says he is for something, the conservatives are against it.

The single most unbelievable thing to me is that there are so many people, working so hard to make Obama a one term president, that they are willing to let the country go bankrupt, let people suffer by denying them food, shelter, health care and the dignity of a good paying job because of the hate they have for one man.

The republicans have blocked almost every single idea that Obama has put out there. Even when Obama caves and gives them almost everything that they ask for they still say that he is still, somehow... wrong.

Why do they hate him so much?

You know why, I know why, and the republicans know why.

They will really go off the deep end when he is re-elected in 2012. I fully expect some crazy ass Limbaugh, O'Rielly, Beck or Fox News listener will try to get him.

They have already been doing target practice on doctors, a senator, little girls and innocent bystanders.

I just wanted to get this posted before election day was over. 11-8-11

Republicans are so afraid that they can't win elections that they are making laws that will stop people from registering to vote by making previous practices that have been legal for decades...illegal.

Such as this; The Republican Supervisor of Elections in Volusia County, FL who was "sick to her stomach" after being forced to turn in a high school teacher to law enforcement for registering students to vote now that Florida has criminalized such activities.

And this; That is the same new FL GOP law which has led the non-partisan League of Women Voters to cancel all voter registration in the state of Florida, after doing so for the past 72 years, because the potential penalties for doing so have simply become too onerous.

GOP COWARDS

Since 2010 when the Tea Party got elected to congress and many states have been taken over by them, there has been a steady attack on voters rights. All under the guise of preventing "voter fraud". Of which there have been scant proof of any fraud.
Bills requiring photo ID to vote have been introduced in 34 states this year alone. I know that in my state of Ohio several changes have been made to keep people that would probably vote for democrats from voting by making it harder to get to the voting place. Ohio also stopped early voting on the friday before the election. It could back-fire because some of us have been working harder to get more people to vote. With great success I might add.

And it's proof that elections have consequences. The United States has been steadily tearing down barriers to voting over the past few decades, but much of that progress has been undone in the brief time since the 2010 elections. It surely cannot be a coincidence that about a quarter of the bills have been introduced by newly elected Republicans. If newly elected legislators cannot find solutions to their constituents economic problems, they can always do the next best thing: making it harder for their constituents to vote them out of office.

What won't surprise me is if there aren't voting machine or ballot counting problems. It also wouldn't surprise me if on this election or in the 2012 election when things aren't going the conservative way there will be a late hour shift away from the democrats and liberals winning, to a stunning eleventh hour conservative victory in most of the issues and candidates.

They did it before in 2000 and 2004 and now they have had a few years to learn how better to hack the voting machines.

I Am Thankful For Free Speech.

Because of it, I can say what I think of what this guy did.

Radio ad refuses service to Obama supporters, Muslims.

 

"We will attempt to teach you all the necessary information you need to obtain your C.H.L.," the ad stated.  Forty-five seconds in, the advertisement added a disclaimer.

"If you are a socialist liberal and or voted for the current campaigner in chief, please do not take this class. You have already proven that you cannot make a knowledgeable and prudent decision as under the law."

The ad continues, going on to say,"If you are a non-Christian Arab or Muslim, I will not teach you the class with no shame; I am Crockett Keller, thank you and God bless America."

  What...a...f**king jackhole.

   That being said, I hope he follows through with what he says.

 

 

 

Liar Or Prejudiced?

QUOTE TALIBAN TOYOTA

>>"Iranian-born Shawn Esfahani, owner of Eastern Shore Toyota in Daphne, Alabama, sought $28 million in compensatory and punitive damages from Bob Tyler Toyota, claiming employees at that Pensacola, Florida-based dealership falsely portrayed him as an Islamist militant to customers."

>>"Esfahani's lawsuit said that Bob Tyler sales manager Fred Kenner told at least one couple considering buying from Eastern Shore Toyota in 2009 that Esfahani was of Middle Eastern descent and was "helping fund the insurgents there and is also laundering money for them."

>>"A Bob Tyler salesman was accused of telling the same couple that Esfahani was from Iraq and calling him a "terrorist" who put soldiers including the salesman's brother in harm's way.

"(Esfahani) is funneling money back to his family and other terrorists. I have a brother over there and what you're doing is helping kill my brother," the salesman told the couple when he called them on the Eastern Shore sales floor, according to the suit."

   It's behavior like the Bob Tyler's salesman and others from the south that continues to perpetuate the idea of prejudiced, in-bred, knuckle dragging, mouth breathing, southern rednecks. Not only is the salesman prejudiced but he's shown to be stupid and a liar. 

Otherwise known as... 

THE PERFECT TEABAGGER!!
