News round-up nursery rhymes

January 19, 2013

Kick, kick, kick the can, always down the road. Never solve a single thing, just whine and blame and goad. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-34222_162-57564747-10391739/house-gop-to-seek-three-month-debt-limit-hike Old Fibber Cantor sat in a chair. While the country waited for answers all day. When the debt deal came calling and while Boehner was bawling, Fibber Cantor said “No budget, no pay.” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/18/eric-cantor-debt-ceiling_n_2505001.html […]

The Great Obama ‘All White Male Cabinet’ Conspiracy

January 10, 2013

3

SO … today’s outrage du jour among the screeching Republican bobblehead rank-and-file is that President Barack Obama is loading his cabinet with all white men, and violating his promises of diversity. They complaining that he isn’t appointing women. They’re complaining that he isn’t appointing minorities. They’re complaining that he isn’t appointing the disabled. And, of […]

The edge of the fiscal cliff; with nowhere to go but up

December 18, 2012

It fascinates me to watch (often reluctantly) the endless parroting of Republican sound bites, talking points and blanket statements about the “dangers” of the fiscal cliff. One should not that the same partisan pundits who are bashing the President for having a bad plan are the same malcontents who spent the last year dutifully passing […]

F.A.C.T.S.; The Republican Acronym

October 12, 2012

0

The Republican definition of “facts” is that it’s an acronym: GOP House of Representatives F.A.C.T.S. = Fictitious Allegations, Contrived Theories and Spin GOP Senate F.A.C.T.S. = Farcical Antics, Conspiratorial Theater, and Spin Romney F.A.C.T.S. = False Attempts to Convince TEAbaggers of Sincerity Ryan F.A.C.T.S. = Falsify Anything to Create a Theocratic System    

The reasons Mitt Romney is losing

September 29, 2012

  There are two major reasons for why Mitt Romney is trailing behind Barack Obama in virtually every poll, regardless of the political leanings of the polling entity, and regardless of the “unskewing” of polls that Fox News claims as proof-positive that Romney is actually crushing Obama in public opinion (on the Bizarro-Reverse world). The […]

GOP: Screw you, veterans! You have enough already!

September 19, 2012

Republicans continue to claim that they “seldom, if ever” use the filibuster to get their way. Well, today must be “seldom day,” because U.S. Senate Republicans blocked The Veterans Jobs Corps Act that would have created 20,000 jobs for military veterans that would have provided $1 billion over five years to help veterans find work […]

Republicans: “Abortion? Because of rape? That’s a lotta hooey.”

August 27, 2012

Occasionally, I’m accused by some commenters of “skewing things against Republicans,” or that I’m a “shill for Obama.” So, today, to underscore how wrong those assessments are, and to hopefully drive home the point that my “attacks” against Republicans are neither unwarranted nor untrue, I’m simply going to post some verbatim quotes by Republicans and […]

The Romney qualification fact list

August 25, 2012

0

Since Mitt Romney has flat-out refused to discuss or provide any details whatsoever about his Bain tenure and experience, his record as Governor of Massachusetts, or any of the professional and personal financial tactics that he claims are what make him the only ideal presidential candidate in the country, I thought I would provide a […]

Here are today’s offerings of word-for-word, in-context live quotes from Republicans around the country, brought to you by A Critical Aye’s Verbatim-o-Tron 9000 … Indiana GOP Senate candidate Richard Mourdock: “Employers should not have to cover cancer in their insurance plans if they don’t want to.
