bloodyminded Posted January 26, 2011 Report Posted January 26, 2011 (edited) A few fall a bit flat, but most are pretty funny. Some samples: 41) Christine O’Donnell Charges: Doesn't understand that separation of church and state is in the Constitution; doesn’t understand that you can’t pay rent with campaign contributions; doesn’t understand that lying to Nazis would’ve been moral; doesn’t understand that you can’t run for Senate and repeatedly lie about your education without being found out; doesn’t understand that being pro-life in cases of rape and incest makes one a monster; doesn’t understand climate change; doesn’t understand evolution; doesn’t understand that you can’t breed genetically altered mice with fully functional human brains; doesn’t understand that being a single, “chaste” thirty-something who obsessively evangelizes against masturbation and gay sex gives anyone with even a vague appreciation of human nature the likely correct impression that you’ve had your finger in more dykes than the Little Dutch Boy. Just doesn’t understand. Aggravating factor: “I’m not a witch; I’m you.” Sentence: Burned at the stake. 29) George W. Bush Charges: Worst. President. Ever. Should be in hiding for fear of prison or mob violence, but he was yukking it up on the talk shows, joking about his dad’s withered nutsack and promoting his ghost-plagiarized, revisionist memoir Decision Points, for which he was paid an obscene $7 million for the first printing alone. Told Matt Lauer on “Today” that “one of the most disgusting moments” of his presidency was when Kanye West said, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people,” which was the least offensive outburst of West’s outburst-plagued career. So a megalomaniac pop star’s unscripted slight was worse than 9/11, Abu Ghraib, the Haditha massacre, the Virginia Tech shootings and the roughly 2,000—mostly African American—Katrina casualties, which West was referring to and you were largely responsible for due to criminal levels of sloth, indifference and incompetence? Motherfucker. Aggravating factor: Remember when he went to Haiti after the earthquake, shook that guy’s hand and then wiped his hand on Bill Clinton’s sleeve? That. Sentence: Made to read Decision Points in jail. 14) Barack Obama Charges: Outside of his promise to never end the pointless war in Afghanistan, his word has the integrity of Halliburton cement. Whether it was a “robust” public option, real net neutrality, importing prescription drugs, barring lobbyists from serving in the White House, meaningful Wall Street reform or ending the Bush tax cuts for the disgustingly wealthy, our President caved like the Metrodome under the weight of a bloated oligarchy. Most irksome, he seemed dignified doing it. Aggravating factor: Authorized the assassination of Americans accused of terrorism. Sentence: Primary challenge from the Rent is 2 Damn High guy. 13) Mohamed Mohamud Charges: The would-be terrorist so nice they named him after a violent pedophile. Twice. Escalated the War on Christmas® to the explosively tangible, when he tried to blow up a tree lighting ceremony. So stupid he couldn’t spot a sting if it starred Robert Redford. Gives everyone of Somali descent a bad name—even the pirates—and justifies insane right-wing hate of brown Muslims. Lived in Portland. Aggravating factor: “It’s gonna be a fireworks show … a spectacular show … New York Times will give it two thumbs up.” Sentence: Married to Pamela Geller. 12) Pamela Geller Charges: The Woodward to Orly Taitz’s Bernstein, publisher of the mendacious blog Atlas Shrugs and co-founder of the hate group Stop Islamization of America. She was the bigoted fountainhead of hysteria over the “Ground Zero Mosque,” which is neither a mosque, nor located at Ground Zero, but rather a former, and totally sacred, Burlington Coat Factory. Her pathological falsehoods include, but are not limited to, the claims that the Bosnian Genocide was actually a clever Muslim mass-suicide/sympathy campaign, Obama—the undercover Muslim—is the love child of Malcolm X, his mom was a porno worker, and that Jewish Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan is a Nazi. This lunatic makes Ann Coulter seem the very model of civility, reason and grace. Aggravating factor: “I don’t know where it is in America that you can’t make jokes or make fun.” Sentence: Sharia Law in a five-foot radius around Pam Geller. 9) Tea Partiers Charges: Openly racist and lying about it, uber-religious, hyper-hypocritical, usually-tetched old codgers who wheel around in their Medicare-provided Hoverounds® and rage against fiscally irresponsible social programs, like Medicare, because they’re too dumb to realize that they’re co-opted, Machiavellian mouthpieces of greedy billionaires. Aggravating factor: They elected some 40 candidates to Congress. Sentence: The consequences of their actions. 1) You Charges: Your brain’s been cobbled together over millions of years of blind evolution and it shows. You’re clumsy, stupid, weak and motivated by the basest of urges. Your MO is both grotesquely selfish and unquestionably deferential to questionable authority. You’re not in control of your life. You wear your ignorance like a badge of honor and gleefully submit to oppression, malfeasance and kleptocracy. You will buy anything. You will believe anything. You believe that evolution is a matter of belief. You likely scrolled down to #1, without reading the rest, because you’re an impatient, semi-literate Philistine who’s either unable or unwilling to digest more than 140 characters at a time. You think Epic Beard Man is a national hero and that Bradley Manning might be Eli and Peyton’s brother. You believe in American exceptionalism despite the contrary, compelling and overwhelming evidence. You tacitly partake in all manner of atrocity without batting a lash. You’re actively participating in our species’ extinction and you’re either in denial or you just don’t give a shit. You escape into every sort of mind-numbing distraction and ridiculous, convoluted fantasy, so you don’t have to face the bitter, terrifying fact that your life is utterly meaningless. Aggravating factors: The careers of Rush Limbaugh, Oprah Winfrey, John Stossel and Justin Bieber; the success of The Secret, “Medium” and Atlas Shrugged; the election of Rand Paul; the existence of Kentucky, Texas and “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.” Sentence: Bad teeth, an affinity for afternoon tea and the guilt-plagued, nostalgic psyche of a fallen empire. http://www.buffalobeast.com/?p=4182 Edited January 26, 2011 by bloodyminded Quote As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand. --Josh Billings

WIP Posted January 27, 2011 Report Posted January 27, 2011 A few fall a bit flat, but most are pretty funny. Some samples: 41) Christine O’Donnell http://www.buffalobeast.com/?p=4182 I went to the source, and the only one I strongly disagreed with having on a loathsome list was Christine O'Donnell. Yes, she's clueless, and has no business running for public office, but I got the vibe that she's just a nice girl in way over her head. Of course that may have something to do with a comparison with the succubi that populate the top ranks of Republican women: Palin, Jan Brewer, Sharron Angle, Michele Bachman (now how the hell did they miss putting her on the list?)

GWiz Posted January 27, 2011 Report Posted January 27, 2011 Great, awesome, right on the mark, I totally agree, even if you've included the few of us that actually have an IQ above single digits... You did miss one however, that being those people who generalize everyone with single brush strokes... Sound familiar? Above and beyond what you state quite correctly the WORST and most offensive people to me are those that vote uninformed about why they vote the way they do and worse yet are the 40-50 % of people that don't vote at all and then complain about the government they put into power by not voting... You also gave a "pass" to the media, in particular the C(onservative)News Network, Faux News (at least we know where they stand), et al, who give idiotic nobodies like Sarah Palin a platform...

Other than that she's so dumb and makes so many stupid remarks, the latest regarding the Arizona shootings, that she became a "media darling" much like all the other dumbo female celebs the media loves to use to deflect attention from real political issues facing the United States... If you want a quick, elevator explanation for Sarah Palin's career, you are going to be forever flummoxed if you are just looking at politics. Palin's influence cannot be explained without considering that she is the first Pentacostal to appear on a WhiteHouse ticket, and claim to have an "anointing" of the holy spirit. Back during the 2008 Election, one of the most influential behind-the-scenes men in the Christian Right - J. Lee Grady - editor of Charisma Magazine, wrote this rapturous editorial about the addition of Palin by the McCain Campaign: Talk about a role model. Palin’s life is a prophecy to America. She doesn’t have to preach against abortion. She and her family, even with their flaws, are the embodiment of the compassionate pro-life values America desperately needs to adopt. When McCain announced that he had chosen Palin as his running mate, I was reminded of the biblical story of Deborah, the Old Testament prophet who rallied God’s people to victory at a time when ancient Israel was being terrorized by foreign invaders. Deborah’s gender didn’t stop her from amassing an army; she inspired the people in a way no man could. She and her defense minister, Barak, headed to the front lines and watched God do a miracle on the battlefield. In her song in Judges 5:7, Deborah declares: “The peasantry ceased, they ceased in Israel, until I, Deborah, arose, until I arose, a mother in Israel” (NASB). Sometimes it takes a true mother to rally the troops. I hope that Palin, a woman who believes in prayer and is filled with the Holy Ghost, will take her hockey stick and smash the glass ceiling in American politics once and for all. http://fireinmybones.com/index.php?col=091008~Sarah%20Palin%20and%20the%20Deborah%20Anointing Now, if you're a shrewd, poll-driven Republican with goals of achieving high political office, and you read something like this, which was one of the most forwarded emails of 2008, you are not going to criticize Sarah Palin, or try to run against her head on even if you think she's a total dumbass, and would take the Party down. If you're a rightwing media hack, it's the same thing! You have to pretend to take her rambling word-salad speeches seriously, or you get swamped with hatemail and demands that you be taken off the air. And the rest of the followers in the media see the crowds at her book-signings, and the red carpet treatment she gets from conservative circles, and they think that maybe she does actually have a thought in her head. But, the wolves are now circling and looking for the chance to steal her base because of the mess she made with her Tucson speech. If Pentacostals decide that she is not an anointed prophetess of God, her political and media career is over.

GWiz Posted January 27, 2011 Report Posted January 27, 2011 The same was said about Senator Barack Obama before the 2008 election cycle. Ahhh, true, somewhat, his speech at the Democratic Convention in '04 did put him in the limelight, but then again he remained a political figure throughout... Not so for Sarah Palin, she holds no Political office and in fact is not considered a pundit in any sense, therefore, as I said, no different than any average US citizen... BTW, the same is also true for the "Tea Party" which, to me, who has some direct historical knowledge of the time, sounds, pardon me for saying it, an awful lot like a NEW political movement in Germany in the early 1930s... The US is now run not by any Government (left or right) but almost entirely by special interests, which of course are non-elected, in particular the "right" funding Corporate structure which of course also includes the media (all facets) which is now primarily talking heads to spread propaganda than actual news... If it's words like dumb you wish to sling about, one would logically ask why some Canadians obsess on any Americans in such a manner. Americans are more interested in being entertained than governed. Now that statement I can totally agree with, to the US's own peril... While I'm more concerned than obsessed it's because, unfortunately, when the US sneezes, it's Canada that catches the cold... Canada will face all the same consequences that will befall the US, and that's not gonna be pretty for any of us...

No...you don't understand her political and media appeal. Instant ratings points. She is a former governor and major-party candidate for Vice President, cementing her political relevance in history. Remember, American television is produced for Americans....that it often happens to be more entertaining than CBC dreck is just a coincidence! BTW, the same is also true for the "Tea Party" which, to me, who has some direct historical knowledge of the time, sounds, pardon me for saying it, an awful lot like a NEW political movement in Germany in the early 1930s...

The US is now run not by any Government (left or right) but almost entirely by special interests, which of course are non-elected, in particular the "right" funding Corporate structure which of course also includes the media (all facets) which is now primarily talking heads to spread propaganda than actual news...

Canada will face all the same consequences that will befall the US, and that's not gonna be pretty for any of us...
