I would have thought it would take at least until the Dems actually took power for them to completely fall apart, but they’re doing a spectacular job while President-Elect Obama is still trying to figure out how to put on his training wheels. First there’s the whole Blago mess. All the Democrats abandoned him for being caught on tape acting like a politician from Illinois, so of course he strikes back by going against their wishes and appointing some boob as Senator (the guy has an Obama-like resume but has built his own monument). Doddering old man Harry Reid is trying to stand up against it, and get’s charged as a racist for trying to block a black man. We just elected a black president; I thought we were all done with this “race” stuff.
These appointment things where one party gets to handpick a Senator are supposed to be a freebie; it’s the “Free Parking” of politics. You can’t screw it up. We can dismiss the Blago thing as being a freak one time occurrence, but how are the Dems also screwing up the appointment thing in New York? You have all of New York state to find one half-way competent Democrat, and they come up with a privileged nitwit who couldn’t find her ass with a flashlight and two helpful servants. Their excuse for picking Caroline Kennedy: Paris Hilton isn’t Constitutionally old enough.
Going for the hat trick in Senate disasters, it looks like Al Franken will be declared winner of the recount. So with about 41% of the vote, we have a Daily Kos level unhinged nut about to go to the Senate. The Democrat leadership’s view on Kos Kids has always been they should be seen (raising money) and not heard (except by other freaks on the internet), but now they’re reaping the whirlwind.
And finally, Bill Richardson has dropped out as Commerce Secretary because of a pay for play scandal. That’s one cabinet member down. If all this implosion is just a prelude to the new administration, I wonder what they’re saving for the main event? Accidentally burning down the White House?
Hillary is now answering questions on her own pay for play. The Obama Administration may set a record for the most inditements before he even gets a chance to take his seat.
Of course they’re going to burn down the White House. Can’t have a black president living in a white house! Oh, they’ll try to make it look like an accident, but we all know they will do it on purpose as part of their efforts to erase any person, place, thing, or symbol that can possibly be translated as racist – and by racist they mean Caucasian.
I was going to make a snide comment about burning down the White House too, but after reading Abigail’s I don’t have to.
I thought that I’d seen it all…but this takes the cake.
In broad daylight, with all eyes on the participants, a senate seat stolen by a blustering fool… to join the joyous and rioting ranks of the Democrat fools already there…and all to be lead over the cliff by that affirmative action triumph, (and far left sock puppet) President Zero.
Conservative may someday be spelled p-o-l-i-t-c-a-l r-e-f-u-g-e-e-
I’m enjoying the “show” but honeslty its about time this came to the surface so ordinary people could see how Chicago style works. Too bad the MSM wont cover it near enough!
Yeah – LOL! Hillary baby – you got what in return for not screaming for the Obama to pay your 20+million dollar debt for running?
The fireworks I’m really looking forward to is the conflict over Burris – since both sides of this are A) Democrats and B) people who think the Constitution is a suggestion box that can be ignored at will. Reid’s comment that the senate controls who sits on the senate and so on shows the fact that Democracy is dead, at least in his eyes.
Whatever happens, a democrat looses.
Granted, they could do the “house divided” unity thing again like all good demons, like they did with the superdelegate/Michigan/Florida mess, but we’ll see.
When King David was being hunted by Saul, at one point he prayed that God would turn Saul’s top advisor’s “council into foolishness”. I’m thinking if current evidence is any indication that many are praying that prayer these days concerning the democratic leadership.
” I wonder what they’re saving for the main event? Accidentally burning down the White House?”
First it gets exposed that Barry Soetoro is neither naturalized nor a natural born American, and then the White House gets burned down. … But by then we will just be glad to have the economic stimulus for more jobs for the firefighters and police instead of overweight UAW ‘workers’ and slippery auto executives.
“…and they come up with a privileged nitwit who couldn’t find her ass with a flashlight and two helpful servants.”
Fortunately, I wasn’t drinking anything at the time. You know. You know. You know. You know. You know. You know. You know. You know.
Great short, Frank.
The sheeple in minnesota, like nevada and new york, must be so proud.
What do you know, burris must be the only democrat that actually didn’t use federal tax money to build a monument to himself. He had to, no one else will.
sheeple in minnesota, like nevada
Hey now, I’m a Nevadan and I’m no sheeple. Problem here is so many new faces moving to the state that no one really knows who the polititians are. They just vote incumbant. Oh and the fact that half the population in Las Vegas is now from either Chicago or California.
Sadly we went from a red state to a blue state in one presidenial election cycle. A 60+% blue state at that. 🙁
Don’t blame Californians either. It was once a conservative state, with a handful of nutjobs in the Bay Area and Hollywood, but something happened. Something very evil. Liberals began to spawn out of thin air and fill the whole state, sending honest Californians running for their lives. They followed into other states ONLY AFTER WRECKING THE REST OF CALIFORNIA!
Regarding the thread, the frightening aspect of all this is that Chicago’s most notorious gangster, Al Capone, was finally arrested on tax evasion. Today the IRS is run by the gangsters and is preparing to enter the service of the Chicago Machine.
Absolute power corrupts; absolutely. And they aren’t even elected yet. Fasten your seat belts it’s going to be a bumpy ride.
One wonders just how long it will be before Joe 6 pack and his minority counterparts figure out their figurehead is made of air. Now that will be a day to remember.
Roland Burris said at a press conference today that “I’m the magic man!”.
The last time I saw someone call himself that, it was Ricky Bobby’s idiot sidekick in Talladega Nights.
When someone asked if this was “about his ego”, he said “I will not dignify that with a response!”
A monument yes, a response no.
You go Magic Man! Yessssss Sir! Just try not to slip in your fairy dust.
It’s a shame. If I ever did want to be a democrat politician, I couldn’t. Apparently, I’m way over-qualified. I’ve actually held a real job, created and run a successful business, paid taxes, etc. It appears that actually having a real resume would all keep me from ever being considered for a position in a democrat district, let alone a cabinet position.
O should escort Barris to his old Senate office to help him get settled in.
It would send a strong message to Reid.
The message would be less effective if O can’t remember where his office was;
after all, he wasn’t there very long or very often.
That’s actually a pretty funny thought, the White House set on fire by these clowns…
It might as well be burned down, after four years of p-ssing on the furniture, pawning the artwork for smokes and carving their names in the marble floors. “Barry Luvs Barry”… “No He Dos nott” “Yas, HE DOS!” “NO!” “YAS!!” “NOOOOOOO!”
Jack-asses.
