OSCAR WILDE, THE LARGE-PROBOSCISED PRIMITIVE
Original message
America has crashed through insanity into a new realm of mental madness.
President Donald Trump? President Sarah Palin? President Haley Barbour? President Newt Gingrich? President (man-on-dog) Rick Santorum? President Mike Huckabee? President Michele Bachmann? President Chris Christie (the bully Governor of New Jersey)?
That any of these people really believe they could be elected to the presidency is beyond insanity. But here’s the scariest thing of all. There are enough Americans (aided by stolen votes) to actually put one of these knuckle-dragging cretins into the Oval Office.
Is there anyone who doesn’t live in terror that any one of those people could actually end up in the White House?
Well, if you think my fears are unfounded, think about this. Who would have thought that an amiable imbecile like Ronald Reagan could have been elected – twice? Who would have thought that a mindless being like George W. could have stolen it – twice?
Someone is going to have to convince me that we shouldn’t be very afraid. I’d really like to hear your thoughts on this issue.

16. We could just skip it all and go straight to Orwell's Big Brother.
For anyone who hasn't read "1984", borrow it or buy it. Orwell's nightmare world is upon us and there's little to nothing we can do to change it.

13. Yes, the media played a large role in the destruction of the America we've known
But the immense ignorance of far too many of our citizens is what made the disaters of the past three decades possible. The media just helped push along the final demise of democracy. (Don't they ever wonder what will happen to them as individuals once a full-blown plutocracy is in charge?)

23. Yep. We are indeed living in a dark era.
Yet, I believe a new renaissance will eventually come about. So, while we are screwed, we can hold out hope for a new age of enlightenment that, unfortunately, most of us won't be here to see.

15. Turn your fear to a practical purpose.
Start campaigning for Democrats and against Republicans today. If you're fearful of something, doing something to prevent what you fear is the appropriate response.
Seems pretty simple to me.

17. There are many of us here who have spent much time, money, energy and worked our hearts out to get out the Democratic vote year after year. Yet we are being outspent, outmaneuvered, and we don't control the propaganda that the media feeds Americans 24/7.
And, perhaps most important of all, the Republicans own the voting machines. I forgot who it was that said, "What matters is who counts the votes."

18. Yes. Sometimes we succeed and sometimes we do not.
In a divided society like ours, that's what happens. You can either continue the battle or abandon it. That's your choice. I will not abandon the battle until I no longer breathe. See ya around.

20. The truth is that the Republican Party, their Tea Bag fringe nuts, and their corporate and wealthy owners are out to destroy us by any and all means. They're not playing by any "rules."
Yet, we imbeciles insist on playing by the "rules" as though we still lived in some sort of democracy.
What's wrong with this picture?

21. What's wrong with this picture is that you are presenting no alternative plan. Why is that? The Republicans have made their plan clear. They've given us all the ammunition we need to turn this around on them.
I'm not sure what you're talking about. What is your plan? How do you think you're going to stop them?
If you have no plan, then stand aside, please. There's an election to win in 435 congressional districts and 33 Senate seats. If you won't participate, then stand aside, please.
If you have a workable plan, then let's ****ing hear it. If you don't, what are you yammering about? It's boring. Say what you think will fix the problem, or quit whining, if you don't mind.

26. No MineralMan, I don't have a plan.
Let me know when you find a Democrat who does have one.
Further, like many here, I find the term "whining" to be offensive, juvenille and outright rude.
If you feel the need to get pissed off and throw a fit, throw it at the Republicans, not at me.

28. Whenever I see Chris Christie, Newt Gingrich and Haley Barbour,
I can only picture them with apples in their mouths, spits running through them, and slowly being rotated over an open charcoal fire.
As harsh as it may sound, these men are walking, living pigs whose cruelty knows has no limits.
Alas, poor whiny Oscar!

Well Obama and his gang did pass, The Affordable Health Care Act. An act that will make it so no one can afford healthcare, I'd say that Obama may have had a Big Brother moment or 2.

And what do all those Republicans have in common? Well, they are all far more qualified in terms of experience for the job of President than BHO was when he ran for the office. As far as we know, they all had higher GPAs in college, too.
:popcorn:

And they're eligible.

Yesterday Rush said if Elmer Fudd gets the GOP nomination he will be voting for Fudd.
I agree this time around. I doubt even a RINO could do the same damage that Barry has in store for us.

I'd vote for one of Frank's cats.
That hysterical hand-wringing of Cyrano's was hilarious. Oh Law! Miss Cyrano's jes goin to pieces!

19. Supposedly this
horrid Paradigm of Competition is to end and a new one of Cooperation is to begin.
Maybe Mother Earth does tilt on her axis...that's what my Prof of Physical Science told me in 1971: "Every 26,000 years, the Earth tilts on its axis." It was like someone hit me in the stomach....I knew I would witness it.
So I guess it really won't matter who is prez...we'll all be living locally and cooperatively so to survive.
And I hope all the Greedy ones fall off the planet as she tilts!
I just try to stay out their way...and Reduce, Reuse, Recycle as much as possible.
It's like that stupid congress rep who was worried about Granada, was it?, tipping over if too many people got on it. :lmao:

And feminists in her day were appalled that it was so tough for women scientists and engineers to get professional respect, when their male peers were dealing with wackdoodles like this...tsk, tsk...

You DUmmies have already done that....hopefully, not again.

That's why I had re-baptized Cyrano as "Oscar Wilde" some years ago.
Some years ago, Oscar Wilde shut his cat up in his bedroom, without access to sanitary facilities.
The poor cat eventually had to piss on Oscar in bed.
Which made Oscar wilde.
One got the "picture" of the ruffled curtains in the bedroom, the flowery canopy over the bed, the gaily-decorated bed-quilts, and in the midst of it, Oscar Wilde wringing his hands through his frilly lace cuffs, his head sticking out from the oversized collar.
It was quite a sight, considering Oscar Wilde is a Vietnam-era veteran (i.e., not young).

That's a quote worth of Sheila Jackson Lee, the stupidest person in the entire Western Hemisphere.

I know that Trump could do a WAY better job than the imposter in the white mosque.

It was Guam, IIRC, and it was a black congressman from California, I think.

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) is afraid that the U.S. Territory of Guam is going to "tip over and capsize" due to overpopulation.
Just to set the record straight. From The Hill.
He re-won his District, 4, with 74.6% of the vote. No comment.

You may recall this is the hero who defeated Cynthia McKinney, the second dumbest person in the Western Hemisphere. In comparison with his predecessor, Rep. Johnson is an intellectual.
Despite the best efforts of the Department of Education, the 4th Congressional District of Georgia was left behind.
