This cartoon well displays the mind set of most people in "my fair state"; and y'all wonder why I'm so ready & desperate to leave.
Well, getting SPARKy always makes me feel better, so let's do it! :D According to this article, if I eat pizza every day, I'll be down to a size 2 in no time. ;D This story should do wonders for the tolerant reputation of the South. Here's another plus for the NFL lock - out being over. ;D Finally, in the realm of Kewl SPARK, check out these color pics of London during the Blitz!
Let's Countdown!
"Debtlocked" AKA "Balking at Boehner" AKA "Drunk on Tea" - Speaker Sobbing Small Price to Pay Goldilocks has had a no - good very bad past 24 hours or so. First, I understand he gave a hell of a response to President Obama's speech last night, then a whole mess of members of his own caucus are poo - pooing his plan to raise the debt ceiling, and, now, the CBO report over the aforementioned plan is making him really look like a dill weed.
And, we have his lovely quote from last night!
I didn't sign up for going mano - a - mano with the President of the United States.
Well, dear, maybe you're not cut out to be Speaker. ;D Congress is even beginning to get lectures from the IMF. Well, those will fall on deaf tea bagger ears; they ain't gonna get lectured by some foreign chic! The deadline could shift a bit according to some debt analyses because of more tax revenues than expected? Did I hear that correctly? The phone lines were on fire - figuratively, of course - after President Obama told we, the people to express our "feelings" about the debt ceiling shtick to our respective Congress critter - prompting much pouting from Rep. Eric Cantor.
Brian Beutler gets to talk debt limit - again. I bet all these poor reporter dudes can't wait to not talk about this $hit. They may be begging for Mudoch duty by now! Keith asked about Speaker Sobbing Small Price to Pay Goldilocks' "game of chicken" with only 3 wheels; honey, they will drive this economy right into the drink at the bottom of the cliff - 3 wheels or no 3 wheels - if it will personally or politically embarrass this POTUS.
I get damn damn tired of repeating the above mantra, but I guess I'll keep repeating it until someone sparking gets it! *&^%$#@! The Treasury Department has not commented on possible debt ceiling deadline revisions. Bat$hit Bachmann still ain't buying the whole need to even raise the debt ceiling; Rep. Steve King's threatening his Speaker's "Speaker"ship. ;D Ryan Grim gets GOBP in - fighting duty; THAT'S gotta be fun duty! Ryan seems to think that most of the GOBP doensn't want to default on our debts; I wouldn't make that claim. A sizable portion of the GOBP in the House doesn't see the necessity of raising the debt ceiling!
"Don't Mind the Gap" AKA "Help Wanted" - Our country is in the grips of full - blown economic racism. Caucasian households have 20 times the net worth of African - American households; Caucasian households have 18 times the net worth of Hispanic households. Huh, who all was saying that this President was going to make "white people" the minority or something?!
The unemployed are being discriminated against by job "providers." Speaker Sobbing Small Price to Pay Goldilocks' plan would make this news even worse. Some people are losing confidence in President Obama's plan and/or abilities on the job front, but a whole lot more people are pi$$ed at the GOBP's behavior on this issue. Robert Reich gets THIS depressing duty tonight. The housing bubble and bust really really hit minorities badly. And, with home foreclosures, other houses' values have gone down the terlet. Mr. Reich thinks another WPA - esque project might be necessary to get the long - term unemployed back to work. And, he's pretty pi$$ed that neither this White House nor Congress critters are even talking about job creation.
"Time Marches On!" - Jesus is in ivy in Toledo, OH. Well, considering who the Governor is, they need all the help they can get! KUDOS TO THE BUDDY CHRIST APPEARANCE; I HAVE 1 OF THOSE!! :D Some poor doggie just missed jumping over a hedge, but he just dug his way under. :)
"The Badgering State" AKA "Politics at Play" - Me thinks some politicos in FitzWalkerstan have their own bat$hit underpants gnomes. Step 1? Make everyone have photo ID (like a driver's license or something) to vote. Step 2? Close BMV branches in poor & minority areas. Step 3? ?!?!?! BMV branches in GOBP districts might get their hours expanded; in Dem districts, hours will be reduced or shut down totally. ALL RIGHT!!
John Nichols gets FitzWalkerstan duty - lucky! The Club for "Growth" is so petrified about GOBP prospects they are spending money there like drunken sailors.
WPITW - Some other FAUX News employee blond bimbo had some brilliant thoughts about Social Security checks & war - waging. Boss Limbaugh yelled for kids to get off his lawn. ;D He doesn't much care for educated folk, either. Some GOBP Congress critter from MO compared debt ceiling shtick to Amy Winehouse's passing.
"Crass Comparisons" AKA Terror Spinners" - FAUX News employees & former FAUX News employees are turning themselves inside out to say the accused Oslo attacker ain't Christian. Lonesome Rhodes is beginning to get international "What the sparks?!" for what he said yesterday about "Hitler Youth camps." Tea bagger teenagers have camps in this country. Will Lonesome Rhodes compare THEM to the Hitler Youth?
Karl Frisch gets to follow Lonesome Rhodes; Keith, please give him a bonus!
