Sunday Night Follies



UPDATE BELOW

A certain blog that promotes pornography, racism, and antisemitism also features an extraordinary number of shape-shifters.  One of them, known as "Sleezy Green" pretends to be a liberal commenter and is accused of cutting and pasting from another blog.  

Click on "Sleezy Green" and see who it really is.  












  • Sleezy GreenFebruary 12, 2015 at 11:36 AMWhy deal with facts when you can roll along with ignorance and myths? Imagine if Democratic politicians had to tell their voters that gravity is only a theory the "jury's still out on it." Who would respect them?
    1. Why is it different for the GOP? Why does the GOP pretend the evolution deniers and skeptics are even sane? Why does the GOP tolerate that level of ignorance?

    Another Day, Another Mass Shooting




    There have been 204 mass shootings — and 204 days — in 2015 so far

    These beautiful women were among the victims of the latest mass shooting in Lafayette, Louisiana -- victims of a white male, white supremacist who, according to reports, was a Tea Party follower: 









    Does that make all Tea Party followers or white males mass murderers?  Well for some right wingers, it does because those same people believe ALL Muslims are mass murderers when a Muslim shoots and kills people.  Some who believe that also believe all Muslims are potential terrorists and should be deported--even American Muslims (where do Americans get deported to?) 

    So should we apply the same logic to white males?  Just last month a white male slaughtered 9 people in a church. Should all white males be suspected as terrorists, because they are responsible for an awful lot of these mass shootings:  



    According to data compiled by Mother Jones magazine, which looked at mass shootings in the United States since 1982, white people -- almost exclusively white men -- committed some 64% of the shootings.



    Raw Story:



    "Police have identified the gunman who killed two women and wounded seven other people at a Louisiana movie theater before fatally shooting himself. Investigators said 59-year-old John Russell Houser opened fire Thursday night during a showing of the film, “Trainwreck,” in Lafayette — about 500 miles from his home in Phenix City, Alabama. 

     UPDATE: Louisiana gunman was a Confederate flag-flying Tea Party kook who hated Obama and admired Hitler Police said Houser, who they described as “kind of a drifter,” fired 13 rounds from a .40-caliber handgun into the theater crowd after watching the movie with them for about 20 minutes."


    The Mass Shooting Tracker: 

    The Mass Shooting Tracker is different from other shooting databases in that it uses a broader definition of mass shooting. "The old FBI definition of Mass Murder (not even the most recent one) is four or more people murdered in one event," the site's creators explain.

    "It is only logical that a Mass Shooting is four or more people shot in one event." These shootings have become so common that they typically don't even make national news. Do you remember the four people shot in Cincinnati earlier this month? How about the seven in Cleveland, or the nine in Fort Wayne? Unless you live in these areas, you probably didn't even hear about them.


    [skip]

    This year there were 18 mass shootings in April, 39 in May, 41 in June, and 34 so far in July -- and the month isn't over yet. The theater shooting was Louisiana's 8th this year. There have been 10 in Ohio, 14 in California and 16 in New York. Will anything change? Probably not.

    The Charleston shooting did produce a fruitful national conversation -- not on guns, but on the symbolism of the Confederate flag, which the shooter adopted as a banner of his racist beliefs. It took 150 years and a national tragedy for the country to reach something like a consensus on the meaning of a battle flag.

     "Those who live in America, or visit it, might do best to regard [mass shootings] the way one regards air pollution in China: an endemic local health hazard which, for deep-rooted cultural, social, economic and political reasons, the country is incapable of addressing," The Economist wrote in response to the Charleston massacre. "This may, however, be a bit unfair. China seems to be making progress on pollution."



    LAFAYETTE MOVIE THEATER SHOOTER WAS A RACIST, RIGHT-WING EXTREMIST TEA PARTIER (TWEETS, SCREENSHOTS)

    GOP Favorability Takes Nosedive






    Dear GOP,

    Please keep encouraging and taking Donald Trump seriously in his bid to be your presidential nominee.  Please.

    Sincerely,
    The Democratic Party




    GOP Favorability Takes A Nosedive Since January







    See that precipitous nose dive?

    Obviously it's Hitllery Klintoon's fault that a YOOOOGE majority of Americans think the GOP sucks.  The fact that the Goopers keep falling for charlatans like Sarah Palin, Herman Cain, Mike Huckabee, Michele Bachmann, and Donald Trump as serious presidential candidates has nothing to do with it.  Hitllery is obviously behind Trump's popularity with the GOP, just as she was behind Sarah Palin's meteoric rise and fall with the American people.  It's all the Klintoon Krime Family's Fault!

    This has nothing to do with it:


    As in 1999, Most Do Not See Trump as Serious Candidate


    To recap:

    68% of the American people have an unfavorable view of the GOP.

    75% of the American people think Donald Trump is a clown.

    Derps, Doofuses, and Unhinged Right Wingers



    Someone very dear to me is in the Navy, so this story interested me.

    The Navy, understands that a fit military is a good thing for America, and it is being pro-active in making sure that one way our service men and women achieve fitness is by eating well.


    "Navy Secretary Ray Mabus announced a host of sweeping changes in May that will affect everything from promotions and training to uniforms and fitness. As part of that, he has set his sights on a well-balanced diet, which he calls “the foundation of a healthy lifestyle” that will provide capable warfighters and lower medical costs. 

     Mabus touted the SEALs’ “Fuel to Fight” program as an example. It increases the availability of lean-proteins, vegetables, and complex carbohydrates to fuel, rather than feed, the warfighter."



    However, because somewhere during the reporting of this story, Michelle Obama's name came up, the hysterical low-information Derps, aka Goopers, immediately and without any facts, criticized the FLOTUS for interfering with how the Navy feeds its men and women.


    "Some current and former sailors took to the NavyTimes Facebook page saying it sounded like something that would be done by Michelle Obama. One conservative blog picked up on that, slapped on the sensationalist headline that Michelle was taking food away from sailors, with only one small disclaimer at the end of the article: 

    While Michelle may not have been directly involved in the decision, it’s clear that her over-zealous desire to force the entire country to be nutritious has created a culture among the federal bureaucracy that seeks to do just that — even at the expense of our troops."



    Michelle Obama had nothing to do with the Navy's decision to eliminate fried food for healthier fare, but in the fever swamp of their fact-free minds, that doesn't matter.  

    This poutrage from the right isn't new, they've been slandering the FLOTUS and the POTUS since January 20, 2009. But now, they're calling for the assassination of Mrs. Obama and her family over nothing more than a rumor they heard, which they immediately connected to Mrs. Obama.









    We'll always have these idiots among us.  

    And they'll even support a hare-brained doofus for preznit

    Trump Continues His Dickish Behavior



    UPDATE:   Go read Infidel753's blog on this subject.



    And the GOP loves him even moar!

    We follow what Trump does and says because he is leading in every GOP poll, and that means a lot of Republicans/conservatives love what he's offering up as political discourse, and they think he'd be a great leader and representative of the United States of America.  The more he indulges his childish impulses, the more they love him!

    He's what the present GOP admires most:

    He's rich, he's LOUD!, he's a bully, he speaks in meaningless fact-free sound-bites, he's boorish, pathetically immature, and the tRump end of a very bad joke of an American political party. How low the GOP has sunk that it swoons over a colossally  
    embarrassing baboon like him.


    Donald Trump Gives Out Lindsey Graham's Cell Phone Number During Speech 






     "Trump told the crowd that Graham had previously been "begging" for a mention on the Fox News show "Fox & Friends" when the real estate mogul still made regular weekly appearances. 

     "I wrote the number down! I don't know if it's the right number, but let's try it," Trump said, proceeding to read the 10-digit phone number. Trump said it was an old number so it might not be work. He then repeated the number. 

     Politico reported that it called Graham at that number after Trump gave it out and the senator picked up. “When it comes to the Donald, nothing surprises me anymore,” Graham told Politico on Tuesday. “It’s just too bad, really." 

     This isn't the first time Trump has doxxed someone who he believes wronged him. When Univision anchor Jorge Ramos sent a handwritten request for an interview, with his personal cell phone number, Trump published it on Instagram. It's since been deleted."

    Scott Walker...



    wants to be your WAR preznit!  He's prepared to launch military action against Iran right after he's sworn in as POTUS, even before lunch!  He's just itching for a big fat bloody war--looking forward to spending human treasure and capital to show the world that he, Scott "Koch" Walker, has you-know-whats made of steel.  Can you hear them clanging?


    From Digby:


    "At a press conference after his appearance at the Family Leader Summit here Saturday, Walker was asked if he thinks Bush is wrong. “He may have his opinion. I believe that a president shouldn’t wait to act until they put a cabinet together or an extended period of time,” Walker said. 


     “I believe they should be prepared to act on the very first day they take office. It’s very possible – God forbid, but it’s very possible – that the next president could be called to take aggressive actions, including military action, on the first day in office. And I don’t want a president who is not prepared to act on day one. So, as far as me, as far as my position, I’m going to be prepared to be president on day one.”


    So if you're dreaming of another war in the Middle East, this reckless Koch-a-doodle-do is your man.

    U.S. and Cuba Re-establish Diplomatic Relations














    Havana, Cuba (CNN)  One bitter holdover of the Cold War will slip into the history books at 12:01 a.m. Monday, when the United States and Cuba re-establish diplomatic relations. For the first time since severing ties in 1961, they'll reopen embassies in each other's capitals. 

     Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla will travel to the Cuban Embassy in Washington to raise his country's flag, an event that Cuban government officials said will be broadcast live on the island's state-run TV. 

     A Cuban delegation of diplomats, artists and veterans of the revolution will then commemorate the breakthrough with about 500 guests and more than likely down a few celebratory mojitos and shots of Havana Club rum.

    The TGOP Loves This Guy


    UPDATE BELOW

    "DEEP-FRIED YAHOO-ISM"








    Trump on Senator John McCain:

    “He’s not a war hero,” said Trump. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” 




    From Politicususa:


    Donald Trump, Who Deferred His Way out of Combat, Attacks John McCain’s War Hero Status


    "It is a fact that John McCain got shot down. It is a fact that he did not perform heroic deeds of daring-do in the air, like a Manfred von Richthofen, or an Eddy Rickenbacker, or Pappy Boyington. But he did survive five years of hellish conditions in a North Vietnamese prison camp, the “Hanoi Hilton.” He did serve his country. Unlike Donald Trump.

    While McCain was serving his country, risking his life in a war, Donald Trump was receiving deferments (in 1964, 1965, 1966, and 1968) to stay out of that war. Not, as Trump once claimed, because he had high lottery numbers.

     It does not matter how good a pilot McCain was, or how or why he was shot down. What matters is that he was there, and Trump was not.

     Think what you will of John McCain, or even of Rick Perry and Jeb Bush. If there is a man on the planet who does not have the right to question McCain’s war deeds, it is Donald Trump."




    A sampling from Tea Party blogs of their fawning over Trump who denigrated John McCain's military service:


    "Say what you will about Donald Trump,I respect him and he has taken something very dear and precious away from the MSM, the Narrative. And he's speaking for me right now..I must confess this: Unlike past elections where I have argued vociferously for casting a vote for ANY Republican over 3rd party, let me say that, if Trump rens[sic] as a 3rd party candidate, he has my vote."



    "PRESIDENT TRUMP 

     Get Used To It!"



    "As for what you said about The Donald, he sure maked[sic] a fool out of Anderson Cooper and with Katy Tur. as well, he made her look like the Idiot she sounded like.."


    UPDATE:

    Why continue to report on Trump?  Because right now he represents the Republican Party and who they admire.  The more outrageous he is, the more support he gains from the political party that wants to win the White House in the next presidential election.  

    Look carefully at who they're supporting for that job: A guy who bragged that he'd build a wall on our border and make Mexico pay for it, and who said he'd bomb the oil fields of Iraq as a way of defeating ISIS.   


    This article by Leonard Pitts, Jr.,   of the Miami Herald explains the GOP's fascination with Trump:



    "...don’t let anyone tell you it means nothing that Donald Trump has surged to the top of the Republican field, according to a new USA Today/Suffolk University poll. 


    Don’t let anybody say we ought not note with alarm the fact that 17 percent of Republicans think this loud-mouthed, attention-seeking self-aggrandizing carny barker is fit to be president. 

    Trump has climbed six percentage points since June, vaulting ahead of Jeb Bush, who remained steady at 14 percent. The billionaire developer and reality-show host did this because of, not despite, a portfolio of absurd promises, xenophobic rhetoric and preposterous assertions. He’s the guy who’s going to build a wall on the Mexican border to keep the “rapists” out — and somehow make Mexico pay for it. 

    He’s the guy who’s going to bomb the oil fields of Iraq as a way of defeating ISIS. He’s the guy who’s still not sure Barack Obama was born in the USA. He’s the guy who says our gross domestic product has fallen below zero (it hasn’t), and American nukes don’t work (they do). ... 

    Trump is No. 1? Sure. Why not? Didn’t he promise to build that wall and make Mexico pay for it? There you go, right? Immigration solved, right? 

     Well...no. But the very fact that so many of us apparently think so provides a vivid illustration of the anti-intellectualism and deep-fried yahoo-ism now holding the Republican Party hostage."


    Deep-fried yahoo-ism:  A perfect description of  today's Goopers and the T-GOP.

    Belly Flop Donald



    UPDATE BELOW:







    " 'Donald Trump has entered the fray of Republican Presidential candidates with all the grace of a bully doing cannonballs and belly flops at the local swimming pool,' said Barry Blitt about his cover for next week’s issue. 

    'I'll certainly be watching the first televised debate, just around the corner, on August 6th. Trump never fails to provide hours of slack-jawed amazement.' ”




    On another story about Belly Flop Donald, The Huffington Post has made the decision to cover Trump's Excellent Adventure in Presidential Politics in its Entertainment Section, not its Political Coverage Section.  

    Makes sense.  

    Who has given us more laughs over the last month than the Bloviating Billionaire Blatherer?

    This is YOOOOOOGE!


    UPDATE:


    From P.M Carpenter via INFIDEL753:


    Quote for the day -- gazing into the abyss: 


    "You're probably afflicted by the same despair: a painfully desperate but hopeless groping for rhetorical precision. How does one find words that convey the illimitable repugnance one feels each time modern conservatism makes itself known? I sense the presence of an abyss, a monstrous darkness, an almost occult vortex of immeasurable ignorance and unthinking malice. It's as though I see the GOP stalking and myself stalking behind, yet when I catch up to it, when I reach the predator, it is but a mist -- a disembodied, ungrippable haze of beastly malevolence and wanton stupidity; a kind of violent blankness."

    Four Marines, gunman dead in Tenn. attack






    CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — A gunman unleashed a barrage of fire at a recruiting center and another US military site a few miles apart in Chattanooga on Thursday, killing at least four Marines, officials said. The attacker was also killed. US Attorney Bill Killian said officials were investigating the possibility it was ‘‘domestic terrorism.’’ FBI agent Ed Reinhold said authorities were still trying to establish a motive.




    Springfield native was among four U.S. Marines killed in Tennessee 

    Thomas Sullivan had served two tours in Iraq and earned a Purple Heart.




    We have family members who are serving in the military.  Our hearts go out to the families of the Marines who lost their lives today in this horrible attack.

    Texas: We enforce only the laws we like!





    In addition to losing their minds over the Jade Helm military exercise, patriotic Texans are thumbing their collective noses at the US Constitution:

    (Wait.  Don't we read almost daily from the patriotic right wing noise machines that it's the libtards and their libtard president who disrespect the law?)




    Texas has refused to issue birth certificates to children born in America to undocumented immigrants over the last year, The Texas Observer reports, and several of parents have taken the state to court. 

    “I’ve never seen such a large number of women with this problem,” said a Texas RioGrande Legal Aide lawyer. “They are locking out a huge chunk of the undocumented immigrant community.” 

    Despite Texas law allowing parents to use foreign IDs for identification, hospitals run by the Texas Department of State Health Services have told parents that their foreign IDs—or passports without current U.S. visas—are no longer acceptable.


    Here's another bit of Texas numbskullery.  Is this what the right wing noise machine calls "liberal indoctrination?"   Oh, wait:



    New history books in Texas downplay slavery's role in Civil War, omit KKK and Jim Crow laws



    Texas:   We're going to teach only the history that we think happened, not what actually happened. So we'll keep our children dumb little conbots who learn fantasies, not facts. 


    Also, Evolution is a hoaxy lie.  The Earth is only 6,000 years old.  It's in the Bible! And everyone in the world knows we get our science facts and education from the Bible!


       Bill Nye: Debate Over Evolution In Texas Schools Is Jeopardizing Our Future

    So to recap:  

    Texas is breaking the law by not registering children who are born in this country;

    Texas is rewriting history books to reflect its skewed and inaccurate ideas about the Jim Crow era and the KKK;

    Texas tried to suppress the teaching of Evolution in public schools;

    Texas thinks President Obama is invading the state to round up and imprison patriotic Americans!


    Go to any of the right wing blogs or news sites and read their wailing and gnashing of teeth about how this country is finished, kaput, over because of what the blah in the White House has done to it.

    Meanwhile,  in conservative controlled Texas?  

    Move along, nothing to see there.
