Must have been that last-minute support from Obama that did it It took three weeks of vote counting, but the extremely close congressional race between California congresscreep Darrell Issa (R-sonist) and Democratic challenger Doug Applegate has finally been
I'm grateful that Mr. Issa is not my Congressperson, but just the fact that we live in the same state sends me into a snit. He's one of the biggest assholes in Congress. Sorry, Mr. Applegate, you seem nice.
Issa is a asshole. You can choose your friends but you can't choose other people's congressional representatives. Give us Californian's a break, both our senators, most of our representatives our Governor and most of our state legislators are not idiots. And though we loved Bernie we went very strong for Hillary in the end. Issa and his ilk are unfortunate outliers. I love California.
I remember once after 9/11 Issa complained about being "randomly" searched at the airport because his last name is Arabic (I think? at any rate it means 'Jesus' in whatever language it's in, because of fucking course). He was very upset that he was late for his flight.
Which didn't stop him from, like, doing anything about security theater, so. Thanks, from a Middle Eastern woman whose Persian last name means she *always* gets randomly searched at the airport.
these are people who think there is no such thing as "enough" . . . and there is no difference between what they want and what they need.
if you gave somebody like t'Rump the entire world except for one square foot for each and every other person on the planet he would complain that everybody has too much and could easily give up 72 square inches so he could have more.
[ . . . but we both know what he really "needs" is that other half square foot too ]
Er, Darth Vader / Anakin Skywalker libelz? Because there was after all, redemption for him at the end of the trilogy...and that seems unlikely for President Elect Pussy Grabber & Company.
But didn't he tell the volk,.....oops, sorry about that.....the folks at his rallies that he was gonna help them be great again?
Didn't he Promise to make BIG MAGIC SPELL to make them have tingles in pants?
Didn't he insist he would make clothes cleaner and teeth brighter ( for white people)?
Yeah he did do all that. Well I'm going to gargle salt water, practice my singing and wait for my chance to sing the "I Told You So" aria.
I heard they like to hang out in toilets - so check.

Did you even try telling him to stop it? I understand that means something in trympanese.
His next investigation is into how Hillary Clinton managed to vote 3 million times.

sooo, the AP called it--is the AP the official vote counter?

Heard today on NPR that Tom Price's alternative to ACA is going to be awful for the very poor and the very sick. Sounds about right for this team.
low key?
[ thermonuclear low key maybe ]

Actually, Darrell Issa's next investigation is how to hot wire that car.
Fuck off.
That gets more and more hilarious as it goes on, and on, and on...
