2012 Anal-Ocity #12

I know that viewers of Info Ink my think that I pick on the GOP and Repubs when I am writing about anal statements……I apologize but 9 out of 10 anal statements are made by people calling themselves Repub……..when a liberal or Dem makes a moronic statement I will include their stupidity along with the ones I have now…..

we have all heard how much a “radical” organization ACORN or Planned parenthood are and how they are leading unsuspecting women down the road……but you know a Repub from Indiana has made what I believe is the most anal crap uttered in the first part of 2012……

Bob Morris, Repub representative from the Fort Wayne area has decided to do something……..he has decided not to support a resolution celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts because he feels the group is a “radicalized organization” that “sexualizes” young girls and promotes homosexuality.

… Morris said he found online allegations that the Girl Scouts are a tactical arm of Planned Parenthood, encourage sex and allow transgender females to join. He also wrote that the fact that first lady Michelle Obama is honorary president should give lawmakers pause before they endorse the Girl Scouts.

Morris goes on to say those considered role models by the Girl Scouts are all “feminists, lesbians, or Communists” and claims that troops are no longer allowed to pray or sing Christmas Carols.

Is there a stupidity test that GOP candidates have to pass to run for office?  My daughter was in the Girl scouts for years and I NEVER saw or heard of anything that this pea brain is talking about…..this is what happens when you let cousins mate….I wish I could be more polite but when people like him are allowed to talk or represent the people of this country then we are in serious trouble.

How Much Is That Question?

Damn!  That one cost me another $15!

Wait!  Wait!  You want how much for me to ask you mental midgets a question?

I was here during and after Katrina and in the days after there was a bunch of “price gouging”….you know those a/holes trying to profit out of a disaster?

I will bet that you are a bit confused right about now…..but stay with me….it will all come together shortly…..

In a Gallup Poll of 1,008 adults, only 13 percent approve of the job Congress is doing, tied for the worst on record, according to the Gallup Organization. Eighty-four percent of Americans disapprove, the poll found. That figure is a record high.

The congressional job approval rating is slightly lower among independents at 9 percent, compared with 15 percent among Democrats and 17 percent among Republicans. The 9 percent approval rating for independents is the lowest since 1974 when Gallup began measuring congressional approval.

I know what does that have to do with price gouging, right?  It’s coming!
Once a person is elected to serve the country in Washington….they go to the capital, find an office and go on the government payroll….their pay comes from the taxpayers like you and me.  While reading the news the other day I found one of those stories that makes me stop and ask….WTF?
I found this tidbit on the Newser website……

Tired of being harassed and embarrassed by angry constituents—and, of course, always in need of cash—congressmen such as Paul Ryan, Ben Quayle, and Chip Cravaack are eschewing open town halls and instead are charging for access over this August recess, reports Politico. Questioning Ryan at an upcoming luncheon will cost you $15. Cravaack’s upcoming meeting is a cheaper $10. And lunch with Quayle on Aug. 23 costs $35. A rep for Ryan says the lawmaker will host telephone town hall meetings this month, and adds that Ryan played no part of the Whitnall Park Rotary Club’s choice to charge that $15 entry fee. Writing for Politico, Reid Epstein counters that politicians who outsource their meetings to third parties can keep out the bulk of the angry public, sidestep YouTube embarrassments, and ensure smoother, PR-friendly events that raise a little money to boot. And while such paid events are nothing new, admits Epstein, in the past they were accompanied by free, public town hall meetings.

You mean we pay your salary and we still have to pay to ask you a question because you are tired of being embarrassed at having NO answers for the plight of the American people?  Is that about?

Hold on!  You mean you charge admission for people in your district to meet with you?

Here is where I tie it all together…….since the country is in the middle of a disaster and you are trying to profit, even though minimally, you are criminally responsible for “PRICE GOUGING”!  Because you do not want to do something you are demanding the American people pay for the privileged of asking a civil servant a question.  Is that about it?

You would think that these self-centered little toads would bend over backwards to try and improve their ratings with the American people….I guess the only people they will bend over for are their special interest donors….would that not make them whores by definition?

Shut The F*ck Up!

From the VOMITORIUM

Warning:  Some may find this post offensive…read at your own risk….and BTW….you were warned!

I wrote this post days ago and saved it as a draft with the hope that I would not need to post it….but this whole photo thing has gone from ludicrous to down right f*cking absurd….so my decision was made for me…..

I find all this a bit irksome that a news story is driven by pea brain ass wads and that includes the mainstream media as well as bloggers……..E-f*cking-nough!

Personally, I am weary of all this back and forth of a NON-STORY!  It is being driven by morons that are so afraid that their 15 minutes will fade and they will become just another insignificant,  worthless lump of shit!!

For almost a week now there has been raging debate on whether the Prez should release the photos of OBL dead…..Some say it is a neglect of the “mission” to Not release them…..and others say that it makes no difference…he is dead…the end of it!

You would think that being told by the admin that OBL has been killed would be enough….but NOOOOO……no matter what this Prez does he is wrong or lying or what ever the extreme pundits want to call it……but let me ask…if GW had said he had been killed would we be having this conversation? Be honest!  You know DAMN well we would not!

OK, one more time and then it is said!  Prez says he was killed……Clinton says he is dead…….Gates said he was shot….Panetta say he is no more…..and finally, AQ has issued a statement on his death…..AQ admits OBL is DEAD!  (insert news flash here)…..ERGO OBL IS DEAD!  (Surprise!)

Now if that is NOT enough for you then I say find someone to prove he is still alive…..he is an idea…..Let Andrew Breitbart and his little weasel f*cker that thinks he is a filmmaker go to the area and get some “real” photos of OBL walking around…….we know that will NOT happen because 1–he is a coward and 2-…..thinking…..there is NO 2, 1 pretty much sums it up…..

This story is over…only pencil dick ass wipes want this to continue…..it helps drive the news away from the dismal crap their cronies are doing in the Congress…the people that these frauds address are the lowest denominator of Americans….those that still cannot accept a black man as the president of their country…..

Get over it!  The murdering bastard is dead!  You may not like it…..but there is the truth…..maybe Mr. Breitbart can prove me wrong…….(raucous laughter ensues)……

Note:  There are times when I cannot try to be civil….I regret that I sink to this level…..just cannot help it…..  If you were offended too bad……you were warned!

2011 Anal-Ocity #6

Just when I thought it was safe to return to the news and politics…….I was mistaken……the GOP just cannot stop their anal stating pundits and politics……I am beginning to think that the rational among the GOP are cowards and will not call out moronic babble from some of their fold……

This time it is Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA)…….he gets the anal-ocity nod for this statement……tweeted during the SOTU speech by Obama…..

“Mr. President, you don’t believe in the Constitution. You believe in socialism.”

And you thought that civility was returning to politics…..well if you did think you have the same mental capacity of this person from Georgia…..very shallow and very limited….BTW he went on the say about the GOP……

The Republican Party is the party of K-N-O-W. We know how to lower the cost of health care. We know how to take care of the uninsurable. We know how to put patients in charge of their health care and have a market-based, patient centered health care system that’s not going to kill jobs like ObamaCare is going to do. And we know how to stimulate the economy. We know how to create jobs in the private sector. We know how to prevent this huge government take over of health care as well as all of society.But we are the party of N-O against socialism and that’s what Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama have been proposing is a greater take over of everything and human endeavor in America.

(pause here for the inevitable raucous laughter)

2011 is off to a good start in my search for the most anal statement made by a newsmaker….so far we have idiots on both sides of the spectrum babbling on and on….but I will give Broun a special nod….the party of K-N-O-W has all the answers but seem to be reluctant to tell us the specifics of their solutions…..instead of telling the specifics they still push the BS of socialism…well he is from the South…no one ever said they were smart…..

2010 Anal-Ocity #27

It is getting close to the time when we will pick the 10 most anal statements and then post them so that the readers may help choose the most anal statement of 2010…..and we have a new one to nominate just under the wire….

David Broder, a respected columnist with the Washington Post, recently wrote when talking about Obama’s chances for re-election in 2012:

Here is where Obama is likely to prevail. With strong Republican support in Congress for challenging Iran’s ambition to become a nuclear power, he can spend much of 2011 and 2012 orchestrating a showdown with the mullahs. This will help him politically because the opposition party will be urging him on. And as tensions rise and we accelerate preparations for war, the economy will improve.

In other words if Obama wants a second term he must confront and mobilize against Iran….and they call me a bit far-fetched!  This guy is an idiot….just what we need here in the US …..another war to add to the list of the ones we are already fighting…..BRILLIANT!

Send in The Clowns! (The Morning After)

And the real shame is that there is NOT a pill we can take to make things better…..we must live with the deformed entity that we have spawned……Congrats!

First of all, let us be completely honest…..the 2010 election was the voter punishing the party that they are disappointed in…to reward a party that they cannot stand…..there you are American logic at its best!

It is finally over!  The 20120 mid-terms that is….and we have so much to look forward to in the coming months and years…..but the most fun will be from the CLOWNS that Americans have elected for their representation in Washington…..I am talking about the silly ones…you know who they are…Angle, Miller, O’Donnell and Paul……The American voter is so pissed at Washington that they would throw away their vote by voting for hypocrites and just plain crazies….nice job….with every election you guys just keep proving my case……

Yes I said silly and crazy!

Send in the CLOWNS!

First there is Joe Miller of Alaska (this race has NOT been called at the time of this writing and Miller is running second to the write in candidate)…..who thinks that we should do away with unemployment benefits because it makes people lazy to the point that they will NOT look for a job……but yet….his wife collected unemployment payments from the state of Alaska……was she lazy?  Was she a sponge on society?

Next is Rand Paul of Kentucky…the son of Rep. Ron Paul with whom I agree on a few issues like taxes and war and foreign aid……but this is his son…..who believes that the Civil Rights Act was a waste of time and effort…that “free markets” would have solved the problem if given time……it had about 300 years and it was NOT solved…what makes one think that it would do so today?

Rep. Bachmann from Minnesota….though she is running for re-election and not a first timer….she is one of the clowns and quite possibly the lead clown….she has made statements like liberals are un-American….and her eyes…her eyes scare the living crap out of me…they are crazy eyes……

Then there is Buck of Colorado (this race also has not been decided and is too close to call….but most prediction say he will pull it out after a re-count and such)…..Buck has said some crazy things. He wants to abolish the Department of Energy and gut the Department of Education in a state that is a leader in education reform and the new energy economy. He believes women that women who have been raped or victims of incest should have no choices if they are pregnant…..

There is a few bright spots of the absurdity of the 2010 election…..several of the more scary of the candidates did not win….Nevada’s Sharon Angle or Christine O’Donnell (never fear…she is a perpetual candidate…she will try again)….this election may not pull the GOP more to the Right than they are now….but will they actually work with the Dems to save the American economy?  That is the $64 question!

These people are truly CLOWNS….that prefer to LIE to the voters in a way to get into power….I am not talking about exaggerations….I mean out right LIES!  There are several others but these will be the lead acts of the Tea Party in Washington……I understand the anger that has grown over your representation in Washington….but is electing Bozo the way to change things?  Or for that matter…Crusty?

Is This The Future?

We hear in the media that the young candidates, win or lose, are the future leaders of our country and that we should be paying attention at what they have to say….because they will be the ones making policy…one day…..

The link below flies into the face of that absurdity…..

Christine O’Donnell’s WILD debate performance. http://huff.to/9xTXLm

Remember:  “If you get enough stupid in one place, you can elect anybody”

Is This The Politics You Want?

From the VOMITORIUM

The 2010 mid terms are a wealth of crap!  There are candidates on both sides that if their IQ ever gets to a 100, I suggest they sell and start over….I have never in my 40+ years of political observations seen such a wide array of morons, idiots and perverts running for office…..

I mean we have had all sorts of attacks, personal ones especially, this candidate is a witch…that one is gay…that one is sexually active….this one is a rubber stamp…this one…..well you know on and on and on and……..all total CRAP!

But this one is my fav as far as stupidity goes…….

Vote for Him and He’ll Kill Your Dog http://pwire.at/cdK569

It just gets worse the closer we get to election day, Nov. 2, 2010……the sad part is that some of it is working on the voter….does that surprise you?  Really?  To me it makes perfect sense because the population is so concerned with gossip and mindless dribble…..a society that makes stupidity like Jackass..the movie a hit….or reality shows like Jersey Shore…a hit….or Dancing with the stars a must see TV program…..and a society that thinks poker is a sport……appeals to an electorate that has an IQ that matches their shoe size……WE ARE DOOMED!

The Games Politicians Play

I have been trying to point out as much of the pure manure that the politicians are spreading…..I do so with the hope that both sides will read it and start asking questions on why they are still in power……why they are so damn partisan…..and why they are ALL hypocrites…..

We all have heard the bitching by the Repubs and some Dems that the stim was a waste of time and money….that it has accomplished very little with the exception of driving up the deficit…..you know…the usual BS….

Thinkprogress.org has a great report:

ThinkProgress has investigated opponents of the Recovery Act, reporting throughout the year that many of the lawmakers who tried to kill the legislation have been returning to their home states to claim credit for popular stimulus programs. In a new research report, ThinkProgress finds that over half of the GOP caucus, 110 lawmakers — from the House and Senate — are guilty of stimulus hypocrisy. Among some of the key findings:

– Top Republican Senate Recruits Are Stimulus Hypocrites: As ThinkProgress reported, Rep. Mike Castle (R-DE), a candidate for Senate, touted over $5 million in stimulus programs he voted to kill. Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL), the GOP nominee for Senate in Illinois, signed a letter urging Gov. Pat Quinn to provide “Recovery Act (ARRA) funding to expand the Illinois Community College Sustainability Network.”

– GOP Leadership Leads The Way In Hypocrisy: Although he regularly slams the stimulus as a waste while in DC, McConnell has returned to Kentucky to take credit for stimulus programs, even taking time to request more funds. ThinkProgress attended two job fairs held by Cantor, where we found dozens of employers able to hire directly because of the stimulus. Indeed, even Boehner’s office released a statement boasting that the stimulus will create “much needed jobs.”

– The Audacity Of Hypocrisy Knows No Bounds: Many opponents of the stimulus have been quite brazen with their ability to try to claim credit for the program. For instance, Rep. Jack Kingston (R-GA) spent the morning of July 28th railing against the stimulus, yelling “Where’s the stimulus package? Where’s the jobs?” on the House floor. On the same day of his rant, Kingston’s office sent out multiple press releases bragging that he had secured hundreds of thousands in stimulus funds to hire additional police officers in his district. Other stimulus opponents, like Rep. Phil Gingrey (R-GA) — who has called the stimulus a “trillion dollar debt bill” — have printed out jumbo-sized ceremonial stimulus checks to present to local communities to try to garner positive press.

Individually, over half of the entire Republican caucus has hailed nearly every aspect of the stimulus as a success — from infrastructure funds, to food programs, to education grants. But politically, admitting its success might harm the GOP’s chances in November. So with Republicans fixated on winning politically, they have focused on deceiving the public by calling the stimulus a failure, while pretending successful programs aren’t stimulus funded.

Some of us bloggers have been yelling about the hypocrisy in the Congress and now we can see that we were right….too bad others will not see them for what they are….HYPOCRITES!

I wish I could say that was all the silliness that there is to report…but that would be an outright lie….Yes, Irene there is more stupidity!

Stealing a page from President Obama’s transparency book, House Republicans on Wednesday asked Democratic leaders to hold an on-camera meeting with them on the economy and how to create jobs.

“Despite our differences, we believe that it is imperative for us to begin discussions and work together toward a shared goal of putting Americans back to work,” the House’s top two Republicans wrote in a letter to the House’s top two Democrats.

House Republicans want another chance to air their opinions and policy suggestions on public television with their Democratic counterparts.

Does anyone else see the stupidity of this statement and proposal?…..(insert long pause for reflection here)…….waiting….waiting….oh crap that is enough time…..

I believe that the two house of Congress are there for debate and CSPAN is there for transparency……this is just yet another BS move to look like they are being froze out of the process……it is BULLSH*T!…..plain and simple……the crap they want is already at their disposal and they will NOT use it…….

Someone once said, “stupid is as stupid does”….pretty much says it all…..for those that are saying the stupid crap and those that believe the stupid crap……

Boehner Pulls A Boner

Daily Agitator

First, I do not know why but every time I use the word Boehner…the word Boner comes to mind……

And then there are reports or stories that make one shake their head and ask why……

In the recent past I have heard the name John Boehner being batted around as a possible speaker of the House if the GOP ever returns to power…he does get lots of face time on TV especially on FOX News, after all he is the minority leader and should be the spokesperson for the Party in the House.

Yesterday there was a “spontaneous” rally in Washington against the Health Reform Bill that is being considered…..there were the usual suspects….references to socialism, nazis, and just plain hate for the president and Pelosi……I watched some of it on TV and thought it was a “white power” protests….the GOP really needs to find someone with a different color face to be in the crowd.

I have written many times on these “spontaneous” out pouring of hate, but today I want to talk about the leader of the GOP in the House……John Boehner got up in front of the 4000 or so protesters to egg them on….he had the usual babble and then he pulled out a copy of the Constitution and said “this is my copy of the Constitution and I will read from it” (paraphrase)….

We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness…….

(I will give a long pause here for contemplation)……..I realize that to be a member of a certain party you need an IQ check but this is moronic…..Boehner was holding the Constitution and reading the Declaration of Independence….you would have thought one of his fellow GOPers would have told him he was screwing up…..they did not….maybe they do not know the difference either….ever think of that?

These are the LEADERS of American governance and they do NOT even know the difference between the two documents….this whole things reminds me of something Plato said:

The penalty good men pay for not being interested in politics is to be governed by men worse than themselves.

The part that should scare the people is…. these are the people that are defending the Constitution….they say so in their oath of office….and yet they have NO IDEA what it actually says….. Do they still teach Civics in school?……

If HE, Boehner,  is the future of the GOP….then members should worry or at least run for the nearest exit….
