Republicans Acting Like Goddamn Children: Refuse to Work Past 2pm

[DiamondSkin]

I have a little sister who's always a sore loser when she loses a game. She leaves in a huff and with tears in her eyes.

But she's only five and she's adorable, so we let it slide.

Republicans however are NOT adorable and they're fucking adults.

After healthcare reform was passed, they threw a goddamn temper tantrum and refused to work AT ALL.

What the hell?!



Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) tweeted today : "Disappointed. Rs refusing to allow hearings today. Had to cancel my oversight hearing on police training contracts in Afghanistan."


Jesus Christ, I can't take it anymore...

I fear this is only the beginning of the potential political meltdown that could occur...

refuse to work = no pay

Oh, please. Republicans Acting Like Children???

I've got some other "news" for you: Sky Is Blue. Grass is Green. Snow is White. Francisco Franco Is Still Dead.

I especially liked John McCain saying the GOP wouldn't cooperate "any more" this Congress. Yeah, like they've been in such a spirit of cooperation so far. Heavens, if that should end.

I always knew that to the GOP "bipartisanship" meant "when we're in power, you go along with whatever we want to do," but these past few months have proved that it also means "when you're in power, you have to give us what we want or we'll hold our breath and kick our little feeties."

Assholes. Every one of them. Especially that stupid fascist warmonger clown John McCain.

Very interesting.

This story is very, very difficult to find at this hour in the 'mainstream' media although you can dig for it.

I found it on AP and CNN.

It is, however, on the front page of the Boulder, Colorado newspaper website (a VERY very liberal town...)

No such luck on Fox.

Wonder why?

You should find something for her that she likes to do and feels well doing it.

So your point would be that we should find Republicans something to do besides being in politics? Otherwise I don't know what you mean.

That's easy, because the corporate media does it's best to keep Americans mis-informed or not informed at all. I mean, if they let people know that the republican party refused to co operate with the business of running the government that represents 300 million people,maybe Americans would see them for the no good ,useless bags of shit they really are.That is dangerous to the bottom line of their parent companies.As we've learned, the only thing that ''matters'' is corporate profits.Thus the minute by minute stock ticker on the bottom of most news screens.

Funny though, last week you couldn't go 3 minutes without seeing some ''grassroots'' ad sponsored by the insurance companies,complete with dramatic classical music,warning of the dangerous repurcussions should Americans get a shot at universal healthcare.

The media in this country is a fucking joke.They will devout 30 seconds to this, gloss it over ,not fully explain that republicans are abandoning their posts,in a time of war no less.No, that won't happen.What we get instead are updates about Linsdsey Lohan falling down after leaving a party and round the clock coverage of Tiger Woods marital problems or Bucky, the amazing piano playing beaver.

Fox is NOT a news outlet at all.They are a propaganda outlet for the extreme right wing element of the republican party.If it is covered at all,it will be completely spun so that it bears little resemblence to the real facts, the fact that the GOP has once again said ''FUCK YOU'',to the American people.

I get so sick and tired of these motherfuckers.Can you imagine what would have happened if the shoe was on the other foot? Maybe this will wisen people up to the fact that they as a political party need to be made irrelevent,voted out of office and never again allowed to keep this country tethered to the 1860's. Useless.Absolutely useless.

I fear this is only the beginning of the potential political meltdown that could occur...

I believe you're right Joshua.What pisses me off is what is not being addressed with these pieces of shit.The violent subtext of their arguments and tantrums.They are trying to incite violence,riots and assasainations.They want this country to plunge into chaos.

These Tea Bagging motherfuckers have been putting out the right wing dog whistle.They are pleading to that one special psycho to pick up a rifle and start shooting Democratic lawmakers.They want a civil war, they want suffering and pain.They'd rather see the country in shambles,then concede defeat.

Mark my words,.There will be violence,and when the smoke clears and the gun is wrestled from the assailants hand, it will be a ''tea bagger.''Then once again, as is always the case in the aftermath of right wing violence where people are murdered, the country will be scolded for blaming the entire movement instead of the ''fringe elements''truly responsible for the latest carnage.

When are people going to wake up to the fact that the entire republican party is a violent fringe element?
