Dancing With The Idiots



It's time to vote House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Hot Flash) off this show. The hysterical Madame Speaker's tenure in office has been marked mostly by her feverish determination to keep congressional approval ratings lower than those of President Bush's anemic numbers. Brava, Nancy Pants, you've succeeded at something during your historic speakership!

Now she wants to get her Viet Nam on and start playing politics with the war. OK, she's always wanted to play politics with it but was too busy brainstorming with Harry Reid (D-Pyongyang) on different ways to say "We hate George W. Bush," which is the only item on the Democratic platform for 2008. Having summarily blamed President Bush for keeping all doctors away from the children (S-CHIP), the California wildfires and the cellulite on Britney Spears constantly displayed bare butt, Fancy Nancy finally has time to lose a war.

"This war is the biggest ethical issue we're facing in our country. ... This is not working. There is no light at the end of the tunnel. We must reverse it," quoth Madame Speaker. Actually, the biggest ethical issue we face in our country is what do with Democratic leaders who can't open their mouths without lying to the American people about the war and global warming.

We're back to the problem about whose assessment we believe about the progress. Grandma Nancy says it's not working. General Petraeus says it is. To him, it's a war; to her, it's a game she has to look good playing when visiting her Bay Area homegirls.

Rather than approve the $196 billion that President Bush asked for to fund the war, Nanny Boo-Boo has threatened to only give about a quarter of that, which would only last about four months. This is true to form. One thing Ms. Pelosi has proven is that she is completely incapable of long-term vision. Poll driven people can't be like that as it requires thoughtful consideration rather than maniacal overreaction.

I really don't have any problem with the fact that Nancy's a woman. I have a problem with John Edwards being a woman, not Nancy Pelosi. What bothers me is that she's a shrill, grandstanding pure politician who is more interested in a photo op than a realistic approach to dealing with a rapidly changing world. She's Harry Reid in a skirt. Or he's Nancy Pelosi with a prostate. Or they're both shape-shifters from the planet Soros.

All I know is that they've had their run on Dancing with the Idiots and it's time to vote them off the show and away from the sharp objects (i.e. the budget pens). Let's do it now.

For the children.

Deranged Bedfellows

The more that the brain-dead George Soros chimps and bottom-feeders at MoveOn.moron speak, the more I think we should bring back dueling as a gentlemanly way of resolving disputes. Until such time, my loose cannon of a mouth will have to do in lieu of a small caliber pistol. I don't really think any hardcore Lefties have the requisite male anatomy to step up to a face-to-face fight anyway. This is probably the real reason they're so anti-gun.

The Democrats, they of the screeching voices if the temperature goes up half a degree in a decade, are still mostly silent about MoveOn's idiotic ad in the New York Treachery the other day. A bunch of whiny little neo-commies, hiding behind the skirts of the First Amendment, slandered a commanding general during a time of war and faux leaders of the left have nothing to say? Finally, we have proof that the entire Democratic party has become George Soros' bitch.

Thus far, the strongest condemnation has come from Elizabeth "No Tangerines" Edwards, who said, “Someone who’s spent their life in the military doesn’t deserve ‘General Betray Us." Yes, I said that was the "strongest" response. This would have been a perfect time for her husband Fluffy to step up and show off the aforementioned male anatomy but, once again, he leaves the manly chores to Liz whilst he continues his relentless search for the perfect hair products.

I keep checking the news every few minutes as I write this to see if any prominent Dem has said anything against MoveOn yet. Yes, I'm hopelessly optimistic that the DNC will try and steer the party back to America one day. We can all dream, can't we? The silence is deafening. Perhaps they're all getting eco-friendly pedicures for their carbon footprints.

Don't get me wrong: I'm all for free speech. The problem, as I have said on stage for years, is that many people confuse the right to speak freely with an obligation to speak freely. I often wish that the Founding Fathers had included an "Amendment 1A" which said "Citizens may also choose to shut the hell up if they have nothing worthwhile to contribute to the debate."

If I weren't so gleefully partisan, I would almost feel some sympathy for the Democrats' inability to break away from the Soros financial tit at MoveOn. It really is pathetic. The reason for the fear is understandable when you cast a critical eye on the American Left though. They desperately need exorbitant sums of money to win political battles because they're fresh out of ideas. "We want everyone to have free health care and a good education" isn't a political philosophy, it's an Oprah sound byte meant to appeal to voters' emotions rather than their intellects. Why? Because an intellectual examination of the current Democrats' positions reveals the full-on socialism of it all. Like it or not, Barack & Co., we have too many real responsibilities in this world to indulge in Norway-esque socialist experiments. Unfortunately, the real world is hard to see when you have your head in the "Free Health Care For All" clouds.

Sadly, the Republicans have never been quite as adept at throw-down political fighting as the Democrats. Maybe it's time we learned. Have the RNC call me. They bug me for money all the time but what they could actually use are my mouth and the now thrice-mentioned male anatomy that I bring to debates. Sure, I come with a lot of baggage but some of that baggage can be used to hit people over the head during a fight.

There are a lot of hyphens in this blog but no equivocation. The Democratic leadership is spineless in the face of a bunch of treasonous web geeks. One shudders to imagine any of them dealing with a terrorist threat.

One last look at the news before I finish and it's all about OJ. He's in trouble with the police again. He should take out a full page ad in the New York Times proclaiming his innocence. All he has to do is say something bad about President Bush in the ad and he can get a reduced rate!

Everybody relax and enjoy the weekend. I'll stay angry for all of us.

The DNC-Democratic Nut Cases

I was sitting around today trying to figure out just how many head injuries one has to sustain to vote for someone like Harry Reid (D-Mars). Whenever he, Nancy Pelosi or any of the other Democratic brain trust speak, one thought runs through my mind: "They really need to start drug testing on Capitol Hill."

Reid flatly disputed the military assessment of Gen. David Petraeus with the political opinion that the "situation on the ground in Iraq has not changed at all." It would seem sensible to believe the man in the flak jacket over the man in the suit jacket when trying to get a grip on the war. The "Vietnamization" of the modern Democratic party is so thorough, however, that they actually believe wars are best fought by politicians. There's a lesson there in understanding the Democrats. You see, they think that the Vietnam War turned out well. Once you wrap your head around that you'll be able to see just how impossible it will be to get any support for the troops from them. Leaving early and watching a bunch of people get slaughtered is what's known as a "solution" over at the DNC.

Barack Obama flashed his lightweight credentials around after the Petraeus report as well. B.O. (his wife calls him "Stinky") says that the troop draw down isn't good enough and, if elected, he would bring all the troops home by the end of 2008. After all, when you're a Democrat nothing says "Commander-in-Chief" like telling the enemy exactly when it can begin killing without any interference. I swear I'm sober as I write this: every time Barack Obama opens his mouth Dennis Kucinich makes more sense to me.

Another little lesson that will help you understand the Dems: the only time they favor a reduction in government interference is when the government has a gun and is fighting for the United States. If they could tax al Qaeda to death they would be more than happy but fighting a lethal enemy with lethal force seems kind of goofy to the Democrats. If someone bombs you don't shoot at him, create an after school program for the guy already!

The easiest way to ignore any reports of progress is to get back to arguing about whether we should have gone in at all. If this group was fighting a forest fire they'd stand around debating the origin of the fire while it raged on. We're there and we need to deal with it. FYI-running away from a problem and hoping it will get better isn't dealing with it.

The flaw in what Gen. Petraeus reported was its optimism. Democrats hate optimism. If the message doesn't scare the crap out of the public they want no part of it. ("The Republicans want to take your Social Security!" "You're going to die because you can't get access to a doctor!" "The North Pole just melted-Santa's dead!" "Michael Moore is in your refrigerator!") Seriously, is Harry Reid's face one that even looks like it wants to smile? But if you show up to a congressional hearing wearing a t-shirt that says "America Sucks and It's All Our Fault" the Dems will be more thrilled than a school girl who grows boobs the night before prom.

It's up to the Republicans now to do everything we can to make Harry Reid's dream of permanent misery come true.

Just for him though.

The Toast Whisperers

Here's an easy way to know exactly when Gen. David Petraeus is giving his report: you'll see the Democratic leadership running around with their hands over their ears and saying "Blah, blah, blah," over and over again. You see kids, in the modern Democratic party the last thing anyone wants to hear is news of American military success, large or small.

When they were confident that Gen. Petraeus wouldn't have anything good to say about the surge, Democratic leaders were just fine with waiting until his report came out to make decisions about funding. Now that the news will probably be much better than expected they are falling all over themselves to discredit the whatever he says. Dick Durbin, Harry Reid and Madame Speaker have all referred to Petraeus' pending testimony as "The Bush Report" in an effort to discredit it. Clever, isn't it? "We'll just tell everyone that he's only going to say what the president wants him to say." I'm sure there was a lot of "tee-heeing" around the room after this genius approach was thought up. It's the political equivalent of saying "I know you are but what am I?" in a playground fight.

I'm not sure what it is that drives this pathological fear of American success amongst so many people sworn to uphold the Constitution. Maybe mere proximity to Teddy Kennedy has gotten them all too drunk to function. Maybe they think they're supposed to uphold the Cuban constitution. I don't get it.

The Nancy & Harry Circus of American Failure possesses the inability to understand that military personnel don't conduct themselves the same way politicians do. In fact, none of us conduct ourselves that way but they keep projecting their motives onto us. It's inconceivable to Granny Nancy the the General would be more worried about the lives of his troops than his reputation with the public because that's how she rolls.

There's also the chance that having a Speaker of the House from the Bay Area may have introduced psychedelic drugs into the legislative process. That's about the only thing I've come up with so far that explains Harry Reid's comments or Chuck Schumer's popularity with anyone who is awake. I'm not going to reveal any firsthand experience here but let's just say that there are drugs out there that can make you think you're saving the world when all you are really doing is forgetting to go to the bathroom.

Let them whisper and spin, it's about all they have going for them. Besides, the American people are now doing the one thing this group of Dems most fears: paying attention.
