What? American Bigots Aren't Good Enough?

#455 GEERT WILDERS
DUTCH PARLAMENT MEMBER AND NOTED MUSLIM BIGOT

Yes, when the Teabaggers had their big Islamaphobapalooza at Ground Zero
Saturday, who was their keynote speaker? None other than KKK Imperial Wizard
Nathan Bedford Forrest...wait,wtf? They picked Dutch parlamentarian Geert Wilders. He was just READING one of the KKK's speeches while substituting the word 'muslim'
whereever the speech read 'nigger.'

Wilders is more of a Honorable Mention on the list of GOP Cocksuckers, but rest assured, if he was an American, Gertie would be a GOP Cocksucker right out of Mama Wilders' wrinkled old lady parts. He talks just like one of them, for starters.

Wilders was introduced by GOP Cocksucker #572 (PAMELA GELLER) of the conservative blog, Atlas Shrugged, and a virulent racist, (especially when it comes to Muslims,) as a Churchillian speaker. Then Gertie, who is on record as opposing all mosques being built in the Netherlands and denies Islam is even a religion even though it has two billion worshippers, delivered a fiery speech denouncing Muslims as "intolerant."

The Fall Guy #454

#454 YATES WALKER
DELAWARE GOP COCKSUCKER FLUNKY AND LATEST FALL GUY

A bit ago when I entered GOP Cocksucker #453 (CHRISTINE O'DONNELL) on this blog,
I said she was leading a whispering campaign about her opponent in the GOP
Cocksucker Senatorial primary, Rep. Mike Castle, being a homosexual. #453 denies
hotly that she's doing it. Who she DOES blame for doing it? #454. That's after she
fired his ass.

The excuses have already started flying from #453, how Walker made homosexual
references to Castle witout O'Donnell's knowledge, "I fired him," etc. etc. Walker
made the charge at the beginning of September 2010 two weeks after leaving the
O'Donnell campaign. He told Ben Smith over at Politico that he knew he had no
evidence of the claim, just said he thought he'd "throw it out there."

Um, this is the media strategy of a guy who's ALREADY backed the wrong horse
earlier. Like, TWO MONTHS earlier. The horse in question was GOP Cocksucker #493
(RICK BARBER). Barber got the living shit kicked out of him in the Republican
primary for the Alabama 2nd by Martha Roby. Seriously. Roby kicked Barber's ass by
20 percentage points after Walker got Barber to approve a TV Commercial called
'Gather your Armies' espousing violent revolution. You can see it here:
http://www.liquida.com/video/a65a357c/gather-your-armies/

(If I was Barber, I'd be saying, "Thanks just awfully Yates." But who am I kidding?
Barber APPROVED the damn thing to begin with. They gathered their armies all right.
They probably all fit inside the same Clown Car.)

What else did Walker do for O'Donnell in the two weeks he worked for her? Well, he
sent out a blast e-mail that erroneously claimed Castle voted for the Stimulus Bill. He did no such thing.

Before that, Walker stuck his nose into the New York 23rd and claimed that the GOP
leader for the nomination, Dede Scozzafava, wasn't conservative enough. He stuck the district with GOP Cocksucker #546 (DOUG HOFFMAN) as the GOP nominee with the result that Scozzafava endorsed the DEMOCRAT, who won by the way. Walker managed to fuck things up for the GOP so badly that the district went democratic for the first time since the Civil War.

Jesus, with help like THIS, who needs enemies?

In Case You'd Forgotten, We Took 20 Grand Away From That Nut Orly Last Month That Probably Would Have Gone To Teabagger Mischief

With no more appeals left, Orly Gabor, the queen of the birthers, had to pay the $20,000 sanction August 19, 2010, that Judge Clay Land of Georgia socked her with when she insisted on using his court for frivolous appeals in the Rhodes v. McDonald case. That's right, guys. We FORCED her to pay up!

And there is nothing you can do about it.

Now Orly is trying to get her money back via a motion for the district court to reconsider. Since she filed one of these BEFORE and it crashed and burned, I kinda think this one is going to fail too. I mean, now she's trying to get President Obama to pay her sanctions. Good luck with that, Orly. LMAO!

Birthers should know that every single one of their cases--every damn one--have been thrown out of court. This is not because the courts are corrupt, it's because all these birther cases don't even pass the Laughter Test.

#453 CHRISTINE O'DONNELL
TEABAGGER CANDIDATE FOR DELAWARE SENATE

In the latest effort by the Teabaggers to take over the GOP, say hello to Christine O'Donnell who is challenging moderate Republican Rep. Mike Castle for Vice-President Joe Biden's old senate seat.

O'Donnell is the latest one of the 'Mama Grizzlies,' the nickname former Alaska Governor and GOP Cocksucker #412 (SARAH PALIN) has dubbed those she's endorsed, usually upstarts that have not gotten the support of the GOP power brokers. She's had a certain amount of success, most notably in her home state of Alaska, where Fairbanks attorney and GOP Cocksucker #605 (JOE MILLER) narrowly beat incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski in the primary and in Nevada where ultra-conservative GOP Cocksucker #452 (SHARRON ANGLE) beat the anointed GOP creature, GOP Cocksucker #381 (SUE LOWDEN) but she has not had a single one of her people win an election to congress.

To be blunt, O'Donnell is a nut. Especially on the subject of sex. Seriously, even Victorians were not as uptight as O'Donnell is. I mean, first she has the familiar:

1. Homosexuality is evil.

Even the manipulative:

2. She hints that her opponent is gay. In fact, she's pushing your basic whispering campaign that flat out says that, even though she denies it.

But then she really flies off the tracks:

3. Mastubation is dead-wrong. In fact, it is eqivalent to adultery.
4. Even LOOKING at pornography is wrong.

She has some other beauts, such as she's paranoid that people are following her around and has staffers check the bushes around her home at night, shadiness involving back taxes and questionable campaign fundraising tactics.

Democrats are hoping and praying that O'Donnell wins the GOP primary as the universal opinion is that they will crush her at the polls worse that Vice-president Biden did when he faced her a few years ago. Even GOP Cocksucker #541 (ERICK ERICKSON) the conservative blogger who never met a conservative he didn't like, said in his September 3 blog that O'Donnell is not going to win and he's had it with the anti-gay stuff.

#452 SHARRON ANGLE
TEABAGGER AND GOP COCKSUCKER SENATORIAL FRUITCAKE

The word was that the GOP had Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid beaten and beaten badly. GOP Cocksucker #381 (SUE LOWDEN) was going to be their candidate and she was going to beat the stuffing out of Reid in November by as much as 20%, All she had to do was win the GOP Nomination.

Then she made the 'Chicken Gaffe.'

Seeing the democratic moves toward health care reform, a confident Lowden said offhand that if we really wanted to bring health care costs down, we didn't have to use money, we could use barter, just as our grandparents did and pay our doctors with chickens. Then she repeated it the next day when given a chance to walk the remark back.

The democrats couldn't believe their luck. They went after Lowden. They created a website mocking the entire idea, they called it 'Chickens for Checkups,' they hired someone to appear at Lowden's rallies dressed in a chicken suit.

Suddenly, Lowden looked at her internal polls and they showed her dropping like a hot air balloon with a leak in it. Nothing could stop the fall. Everywhere she went, all people wanted to talk about were chickens, chickens, chickens. Worst yet, they were doing the one thing politicians fear the most: they were laughing at her.

When the primary came and went, the winner was Angle, the ultra-conservative that Reid had polled the best against of any of the challengers. Reid's camp was delirious with joy even though Angle led Reid at the time by 11 percentage points. They wasted no time striking at Angle, and when they did, they picked a haymaker designed to knock her right out of the political ring.

Angle's more conservative positions on her website--the one she had campaigned on in the primary--were losers in the general election. The GOP took them down, forced Angle to scrub her website and then put her new, improved views back.

They hadn't reckoned with the democrats having taken a screen shot of the OLD website. They put it up with the headline 'TheRealSharronAngle.com.' It had all her statements there about getting rid of social security, about getting rid of the Department of Education, about leaving the United Nations, about using the Second Amendment (the legalization of guns) to handle politicians along with others.

Angle was enraged. So was her campaign. To the democrats' glee, Angle tried to sue the Reid Campaign for violation of copyright unless the website was taken down. The Reid Campaign did...for a day...then put it right back up again, saying they just wanted to take off some fundraising information Angle had on the old site. When Angle threatened them a second time, the Reid Campaign simply laughed in her face and dared her to sue. Nothing happened.

Now Reid leads Angle by seven points in what is being called the biggest political turnaround in history and the margin is growing. Meanwhile, Angle's strategy is to avoid the legitimate media at all costs.

The Latest Crybaby Whine

Man, the GOP Cocksuckers keep whining and crying no matter how much time has gone by.

GOP Cocksucker #72 (RANDY 'DUKE' CUNNINGHAM) is now whining he's being badly treated by the IRS which wants liens on the money he was bribed with back in 2004 by GOP Cocksucker #1 (BRENT WILKES) while a congressman for the California 50th. Cunningham says that was never covered in his restitution agreement with the goverment when he agreed to pay back $1.8 million in bribes.

Judge Larry Burns patiently wrote back to this neanderthal that the liens the IRS served on him were for the back taxes on the bribes Cunningham admitted to taking and have nothing to do with his restitution. He could have written, 'Aw, quit your bitching and serve your time, convict,' but didn't.

#451 JOEL HANSEN
NEVADA AMERICAN INDEPENDENT PARTY LAWYER

If anything illustrates the fact that the kooks are coming out of the woodwork this
election cycle, you don't have to look much farther than guys like Joel Hansen of the Nevada Independent American Party and NOTHING has them more upset than Health
Care Reform.

While several states, such as Virginia, Missouri, Alabama and South Carolina have
sued based on the 10th Amendment, Hansen is going all out, saying the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act violates the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Ninth,
Tenth and 13th amendments.

(I cannot for the life of me understand how the PPAC violates the Third Amendment,
which prohibits the quartering of troops in people's homes or the Ninth Amendment,
which specifies that the enumeration of the amendments cannot be used by judges
to determine the importance of one over another.)

Hansen's biggest stretch is the 13th Amendment, which outlaws slavery. Hansen
claims the PPAC constitutes peonage by forcing them to pay a debt by threat of
legal sanction. He says nothing about the same thing being done with auto insurance. Hansen also claims the First Amendment in involved because the PPAC forces people to pay for abortions, which is a violation of religious freedom. He cannot, however, point to anywhere in the bill where there is such a thing and federal law --in the form of the Hyde Amendment--prohibits that anyway.

Hansen has a long 32-year history of supporting crackpot notions, such as representing people who want to be paid in 'honest' money, namely gold or silver
coins and not Federal Reserve Notes, which he claims are worthless. (However, he's
happy to take them.)

The Rodeo Clown - #450

#450 GLENN BECK
FOX NOT THE NEWS COMMENTATOR WHO PRETENDS TO BE A NEWSMAN

Holy Shit. Where do we start?

GOP Cocksucker #385 (BILL O'REILLY) used to be the Big Cheese on Fox Not the News, packing the illiterates in to watch his program, The O'Reilly Factor, but then Billo's credibility started dropping as the helium slowly began leaking from his blimp.

First came the Andrea Mackris Affair, in which he sexually harassed a producer of his show by telling her on the phone about a fantasy he had of masturbating her with a loofah (Or a falafel. Billo gets things mixed up.)

Then he enriched Sen. Al Franken of Minnesota by suing him for libel, even though Fox Not the News attorneys told him not to. The judge in the case threw out O'Reilly's suit in record time, observing that it was "wholly without merit," thus providing Fox Not the News with another slogan.

Third, he fucked up the Malmedy incident of World War II, claiming American G.I.' s shot down surrendering German SS officers during the Battle of the Bulge when actually the opposite occured. After this beaut, even O'Reillly's aging audience were wondering "What the fuck?" They may be gullible, but they aren't THAT gullible.

(The same thing happened with GOP Cocksucker #70 (THE FAT JUNKIE) although to be fair, he's been looked upon as a joke for a lot longer. He was skewered by activist Janeane Garofalo, who said that he was a narcissist filled with self-loathing. In a classic line, Garofalo said The Fat Junkie would go to his grave "unfixed." The Fox demographic still listened to Limbaugh, but it was like listening to my great-grandmother continuing to use her old wood stove after she'd gotten a new electric one because, quote, "Dat ting yust don't cook right." I.e., they didn't place much stock in him.)

Since #386 and #70 have fallen from favor, who is the new kid on the block? Why #450, the Mormon alcoholic drug user and ex-shock jock who cries on his program at the drop of a hat and has been losing sponsors willy-nilly since he called President Obama a racist (he recanted that a couple of weeks ago.)

Beck, who in case you think I'm mean, calls HIMSELF "a rodeo clown" on his Facebook page and has in an interview, tries portraying himself as an unedcated man and a professional journalist at the same time. It's a variation of a schtick #70 still uses in which he portrays himself as a journalist until he gets caught, then claims he's anentertainer until the heat dies down and he can claim to be a journalist again.

What Beck IS is a huckster, who has gotten wealthy off merchandising books, his bogus university and Fusion magazine among other things to the Guillible that is his audience. Beck is also a ruthless self-promoter. His last appearance, a rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial on the same day as Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech, featured Beck lauding himself for most of his speech, comparing himself to George Washington and Benjamin Franklin. Beck has now launched a website where most of the content talks about the wonderfulness ofGlenn Beck.

Most of Beck's conspiracy theories--and they ARE conspiracy theories--have their origins in Cleon Skoussen, a Mormon racist, a fired former chief of police, virulent anti-communist, far-right speaker and all-around kook who died in 2006.

Beck would snarl that he doesn't--or if he does, they are of no consequence--make mistakes or tell lies. But he does. ALL the time. What he counts on is that he can make a pile off the Gullible before it catches on. Here are just SOME of them:

1. During his "I Have A Scheme" speech, Beck claimed half a million people showed up. (Actually, 85,000 did.)

2. Claimed on Fox and Friends July 28, 2009, that President Obama is a racist. (At first, Beck tried to bully his way through the charge but as he kept losing sponsor after sponsor--200 as of March 2010--he tried getting Fox Not the News owner Rupert Murdoch, to bankroll his show, which he did for a little while, but the pressure did not abate. Finally, after his "I Have A Scheme" rally, Beck apologized on Fox Not the News Sunday to Chris Wallace.)

3. Claimed to his followers at the "I Have a Scheme" rally that he held the original inaugural statement in his hand that was penned by George Washington. (True to form, Beck admitted that this was a lie but it really didn't matter.)

4. Claimed Green Jobs presidential adviser Van Jones had been convicted of a felony. (True to form, Beck admitted that this was a lie but it really didn't matter. This is a guy who's supposed to stand for honor and integrity?)

5. Claimed that Robert Creamer a liberal activist was a "unrepentant convicted felon." (Ummm. No. Creamer was very repentant, confessing to bank fraud and paying all the money back that he owed the IRS, plus penalties. Beck also said the security breach at a state dinner November 24, 2009 was to distract attention from Creamer. )

6. Swore that 45% of doctors said they would quit if health care reform passed. (It's passed. They aren't quitting.)

7. Claimed that John Holdren, the director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, promoted abortions and putting substances in drinking water that would leave people sterile. (This is blatantly false. He never said any such thing.)

8. We are the only country in the world that has citizenship on birth, (No we aren't. Guatamala, Canada, Romania, Brazil, Mexico, Pakistan, to mention a few, all have it.)

9. Beck claimed that the wife of Imam Rauf, the muslim heading up the construction of the Park 51 project claims that all Americans hate muslims. (She didn't, she said it was the protestors who seemed to hate muslims.)

10. President Obama wants to force doctors to perform abortions. (Title 42, § 300a-7 of the U.S. Code safeguards doctors from not performing abortions if their religious or moral beliefs say otherwise.)

Not A Friend in the World

GOP Cocksucker #433 (DAN MAES) is even having his Teabagger buddies abandonining him.

After slapping the shit out of GOP Cocksucker #500 (SCOTT McINNIS) to win the GOP Cocksucker gubernatorial primary because McInnisd got himself embroiled in a plagarism scandal for which he was paid $300,000, Maes expected to get the endorsementa of the party faithful, which he did...at first.

Then all the weird shit became known to the voters and pretty soon Maes couldn't talk about any of his ideas for the state, assuming he had any. He could only talk about...well...Dan Maes.

As in, did he really think the program to encourage people to ride bicycles around Denver was a plot by the United Nations?

And the latest one, how come you told everyone you used to be an undercover cop when you never were?

Episodes like these have caused more and more GOP regulars like ex-Sen. Hank Brown to take back their endorsements. Now even his fellow teabaggers, seeing a statewide bloodbath looming in Colorado, have asked him to step down.

First was Leslie Hollywood, the director of the Northern Colorado Teabaggers. Then came Teabagger activist Janet Rowland, Evergreen/Conifer Tea Party co-coordinator Connie Bierkan, Western Slope Conservative Alliance president Jennifer Bailey, R Block Party co-founder Nikki Mata, Lu Busse, the chair of the 9.12 Project Colorado Coalition and now GOP Cocksucker #535 (KEN BUCK) the GOP Cocksucker senatorial candidate and Teabagger that beat GOP Cocksucker #410 (JANE NORTON) the establishment candidate that distinguished herself for running away from the press when they started asking question about her lobbyist background. All of them have left Maes high and dry.

Maes stubbornly tweets he is not going to quit. Even though the head of the Colorado Republican Party, GOP Cocksucker #423 (DICK WADHAMS) fervently wishes he would, telling the Denver Post, "He has nobody left."


Sixty days before the election, John Hickenlooper, Maes' opponent, leads him by 11 points and rising.

Sheriff Joe's Latest B.S.

GOP Cocksucker #366 (SHERIFF JOE ARPAIO) is whining now that the Department of Justice has had it up to here with his bullshit and has sued his crooked ass.

Acting the injured innocent after the DOJ sued him for not cooperating with their investigation into civil rights violations, Arpaio whined that he just wanted to know why the DOJ wanted certain documents from his office.

To its credit, the DOJ told Arpaio that they just wanted the documents and they didn't have to tell him a fucking thing. Arpaio whined that he was being picked on and said the feds should be thanking him for patrolling the Mexican border. Never mind the fact that enforcing the border is the job of the feds, not the county.

FORMER S.C. POLITICAL BIG WHEEL WHO DESTROYED HIS CAREER IN POLITICS

Merchant not only backed the wrong horse in the run for governor of Georgia, namely GOP Cocksucker #363 (LT. GOV. AMDRE BAUER) against GOP Cocksucker #400 (NIKKI HALEY,) he also flushed his career down the drain.

In a desperate attempt to stop Haley in the primary, Merchant tried to capitalize on charges made by blogger Will Folkes, a former communications aide to GOP Cocksucker #308 and gift that keeps on giving (MARK SANFORD). Folkes said he had an 'inappropriate sexual relationship' with Haley. Merchant subsequently said he fucked Haley while they were at a convention in June a couple of years ago. This charge didn't get too much traction, as Jon Stewart of the Daily Show showed, to absolutely hilarious effect, around the 7:45 mark here: http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-june-7-2010/thank-you--south-carolina---the-race-to-replace-disgrace

The Pinata With Hair

Don't let anyone tell you that Islamophobia isn't spreading from New York.

The flap over the Park 11 cultural center has spread to Murfreesboro, TN, where construction equipment used to lay the groundwork for a mosque there has been set ablaze and Tumecula, CA, where teabaggers tried intimidating Muslims with barking dogs.

It's also spread to West Haven, CT, but not in the form that 31-year-old Kevin Morris would have approved.

After walking into the Fire & Ice Hookah Lounge (I LOVE that name.) and screaming racial epithets at a number of black and middle eastern people, a drunken Morris...how can I put this delicately?.....ehh I can't...got the everlovin' shit kicked out of him. By the time police showed up, the outside of the Lounge looked like a hockey game with Morris playing the role of the puck. Bystanders told police that one of the patrons had rung Morris' bell several times before running off. (But you just know that they made that guy up and in reality EVERYONE had taken their best shot at Morris' drunken ass; like he was a pinata with hair.)

Morris was bleeding profusely from the face. Police had to take him to the Yale-New Haven Hospital to be treated for his injuries before arresting him for third degree intimidation and second degree breach of the peace. Morris' face, with one eye swollen shut as a result of his night out, can be seen here: http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2010/09/as_weve_been_reporting_there.php

OMG! The Homosexuals! Watch Out! It's The Homosexuals!- #448

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

Why Won't GOP Cocksucker #412 (BIBLE SPICE) Talk To the Press?

Well, it's not that big a mystery. The answer is: because everytime she does she reveals herself to be an incurious snowbilly and it turns into a fucking disaster. Except for the snow part, we've had enough of that. Look at all the damage that kind of thinking did between 2000 and 2008.

Remember the two interviews with Katie Couric during the campaign of '08 when Palin revealed herself to be an ignoramus who couldn't name any of the Founding Fathers or tell us what magazines she reads? Palin sure does. She tries to put a good face on it, but the memory of the Couric interviews, which DESTROYED any chance for her to be vice-president, still burn.

So now Palin won't cooperate with anyone in the media unless she has total control or it's Fox Not the News. Wanna simple example? Okay, local journalists from small papers CAN attend Palin's speeches around the country, but cameras are only permitted for the first 15 minutes.

Here's another one: Palin used to regularly take to news shows and tell bald-faced whoppers or even ignore reporters' questions completely. She doesn't anymore because she can't control them.

None of this stops the media, which for some reason is interested in anything this dumb broad says. Vanity Fair is the latest outfit to come out with a profile that shows Palin to be a ruthless snowbilly who steps on people, staffers and relatives in order to get to power. It also says that Palin doesn't write her famous facebook page but employs a blogger to do it because she is obsessed with her public persona.

She's also maipulative, a rotten tipper and perfectly willing to exploit others for her own personal gain.

The GOP Cocksucker Who Tried to Help The Rapist - #445

#445 DENNIS NOLAN
EX- STATE SENATOR FOR NEVADA

GOP Cocksuckers love to claim that Democrats are nothing but corrupt lawbreakers, if not outright communists with no respect for the rule of law. So it's really delicious when one of them gets hoisted on his own petard, like Nolan.

Nolan got caught offering the ex-wife of a friend of his, child rapist Gordon Lawes, a bribe. Nolan said that was not so, that he merely left three messages on her voice mail and said it would be "financially beneficial" for her to tell the truth in the affair, which had resulted in Lawes being convicted of raping his 16-year-old sister-in-law and then sentenced to life in prison.

Nolan said he was saying he would pay Jamie Lawes to meet him and then show up
wearing a wire and getting her to say that the sex was not rape at all but consensual.

But then that story changed. Nolan claimed when he talked about financial inducement
in the voice messages, he was trying to discredit her FATHER, who had made ads for
his primary opponent, Elizabeth Helseth, by saying that he had abused the rape victim.

Then Norton suggested that the Helseth campaign, which had recieved the voicemail
Norton had left for Lawes, had altered the tapes.

Then it was Lawes' turn to get into the act, claiming that Nolan's story was evidence of insanity.

A month later, Nolan was beaten by Helseth.
