Blanche has "shyster written all over him, from his toupee down to his Trump-gifted Florsheim shoes. He's a disgrace to the legal profession and an embarrassment to government workers. He should go out onto the street, fall on his knees and beg forgiveness for living.
yeah, I saw it on a poster. “ you can’t live life backwards. you have to live and let live by living forward. And go fuck yourself Bill Cassidy.” - by Jack Handy
Thanks for reminding me that I haven't peeked in on "Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey" in a while. I'm going go do that right now. I could sure use a laugh.
[peeks in]
Today's is short and...not sweet.
"One good thing about being buried alive is that you can catch up on your clawing."
Why don't they ever call them liars, when they know they are lying right to their faces? "You're a liar, Todd. Roll the clip." They are such fucking cowards.
Because they would lose their access memberships to the D.C. cocktail circuit and the invisible private country clubs that you and I couldn't afford in a thousand years of wage-slavery.
Who cares at this point? Who even wants these lying fools on their show? Remember in Assmouth's first term, when Kellyanne was banned from the Sunday shows for lying too much? They had a spine about it then. All Donny's fools do is lie, and the media is complicit in enabling them. And if they say they won't do the Sunday shows anymore? GOOD! They can book more Democrats and get the truth out.
Cassidy is doing a senior slide now that he's resigning. He made protest noises at Blanche for a little but then figured, "Fuck it. I'm out of here in January and on to my lucrative lobbying/consulting gig. I don't need the headache of opposing Trump. I'm voting yes." And now Blanche is doing exactly what everybody said he would.
Especially when you know Trump will put out word to lobbying groups they’ll get no time with the president if they hire those three, and bar current house/senate reps from taking their calls. They debased themselves for nothing.
Ta, MM. I want every cabinet member, member of Congress, and Senator who does Dictator Tot's bidding hauled before the ICC and known thereafter as The Prisoner in the Dock.
"CASSIDY: All I saw was that little snippet. I'm going to reserve comment because I was not aware of that before this. I will say Republicans are very strong on law enforcement"
Well, the Republicans are good at assaulting them and then trying to pay their goons with taxpayer money.
They should have promised to vote to Blanche and then not right at confirmation time. Should have stuck it to them. Cassidy looked like they actually threatened his life if he didn’t vote for him based on his speech.
There’s a song by REM called “The Great Beyond” the chorus of which begins “I’m pushing an elephant up the stairs…” which I always sing as “down the stairs…” for that very reason.
Would someone please remind the soon-to-be-departed Cassidy that, as a member of the U.S. Senate, it's his job to know such things? This dullard, Southern, I am a good-ol-boy nonsense is not wearing very well. But don't just take my word for it- speak with Senator John Kennedy, another politician with a great education but afraid to use it.
Spending time (and a lot of tuition money) at highly rated educational institutions, even receiving advanced degrees, does not necessarily imply being educated.
OT: After spending/pocketing how many millions of OUR tax-dollars?
"An investigation into Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's six-year crackdown on noncitizen voting found that he produced just one charge from a referral list of 53 suspects."
PLEASE FELLOW TEXANS: Let's vote this Faschy-Clown out of office. Given the sabotage of vote-by -mail, show up during early voting & let's elect Talarico.
If we don't, think of the torture of having BOTH Cruz & Paxton in office for the remainder of Trump time & beyond.
Leaving out the pedantic "a thumb is not a finger" trope, I see Bill Cassidy there with 6 fingers up. I wonder what the psychology is behind him holding up the thumb to signify "six". Most people I think would hold up the index finger.
Or maybe the question is what does the psychology say about me to even notice this and bring it up for discussion.
Good one. It is actually a big AI premise of what most people think given a circumstance.
97 out of 100 would do the index. 2 would do the thumb. And one somovbich would hold the middle finger. It is quite efficient if the group of people are a predefined audience.
For ex. all married, all own cats, all single women 14-25, old ass men 65+ and so on.
Actually, knowing what AI gets up to in image manipulation, the AI would simply give the relevant hand enough fingers to indicate anything possibly up to and including thirteen.
I give the 2016 voters a soft pass. He is a con man after all and even intelligent people get conned, both by him and the anti-Clinton mania of the press. After that, nope.
Some thought it was show biz stuff and shame on them. I work with people who changed their tune really quick after 2016 and they are on the right path at the moment.
"They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."
When pressed on the quote by journalists later that year, Trump stood by his language. He told CNN, "Well, somebody's doing the raping... Who's doing the raping?" to defend his choice of words.
Honestly. Who counts to 6 on their hands that way?
What is he Yugoslavian? It just looks really fucking strange to my America eyes..
Blanche has "shyster written all over him, from his toupee down to his Trump-gifted Florsheim shoes. He's a disgrace to the legal profession and an embarrassment to government workers. He should go out onto the street, fall on his knees and beg forgiveness for living.
So very disappointing, nothing they could do to push back.

They're paid not to do that very thing.
"false claims" is as close as NPR will ever get to calling out a lie. Those moral weaklings.
"In conflict with the truth."
Because they would lose their access memberships to the D.C. cocktail circuit and the invisible private country clubs that you and I couldn't afford in a thousand years of wage-slavery.

I'm convinced at this point that no one watches the Sunday shows who isn't paid to.

Fuck it. I'm out of here in January" is all the more reason to fuck over Donald Fucking Trump.
Especially when you know Trump will put out word to lobbying groups they’ll get no time with the president if they hire those three, and bar current house/senate reps from taking their calls. They debased themselves for nothing.
ETTD
And also 🤙🏽 yourself loser!
Ta, MM. I want every cabinet member, member of Congress, and Senator who does Dictator Tot's bidding hauled before the ICC and known thereafter as The Prisoner in the Dock.
you and me both, baby.
"CASSIDY: All I saw was that little snippet. I'm going to reserve comment because I was not aware of that before this. I will say Republicans are very strong on law enforcement"

Capitalism, I guess?
They should have promised to vote to Blanche and then not right at confirmation time. Should have stuck it to them. Cassidy looked like they actually threatened his life if he didn’t vote for him based on his speech.
That Cassidy feller is right limber to be as old as he is. I guess having a slinky for a spine helps with that.
Do you know what Slinkies and Republicans have in common?
They're both so much fun to push down the stairs.
There’s a song by REM called “The Great Beyond” the chorus of which begins “I’m pushing an elephant up the stairs…” which I always sing as “down the stairs…” for that very reason.
Any excuse to include that clip of the ICE agent slipping on ice will be accepted.

It's almost like noncitizens don't try to vote.
It's almost like Republicans are lying. Still.
Still a better win rate than Assface's election challenges.

Yes, that's right. I forgot I seen lots of fingers on people's hand.
One time an actor had 3 legs. An actress had 3 arms.
I've seen my Japanese friends start a count with their thumbs.
Its not simulating though, its simulating the results.
It's going to be fun when MAGA gets to fully appreciate the FO-phase of stigmatization and ostracization.
I give the 2016 voters a soft pass. He is a con man after all and even intelligent people get conned, both by him and the anti-Clinton mania of the press. After that, nope.
I'm not. He told everyone who he was, but people preferred not to listen.
Some thought it was show biz stuff and shame on them. I work with people who changed their tune really quick after 2016 and they are on the right path at the moment.

Ought to dig that tape up and splice in a sepulchral voice saying, "You. You're doing the raping. You, Trump."
I hope they are seeing what they have helped to bring about.
They're feeling it in red states where health care and food aid are disappearing while hospitals shut down.
Oh, it's absolutely catastrophic.
