    First fuckers! feels good after a week away.

  • http://broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    Mr. The Bob Cesca, I was in your neighborhood last week, or drove by it at any rate, when I took a 3 day trip to Gettysburg. Pretty awesome.Mike Redmond – I dropped of a rental car at the Harrisburg airport but I didn’t see you. ;)

    Been in the Gay-Mecca also known as Iowa, Carl?

  • http://broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    No, Ashby, that’s my next trip. They should change their state motto from “Fields of Opportunities” to “Fields for Feeling Up! The Mecca of Teh Gay! No Stance Too Wide”

    I want to cover the teabagger rally in Huntsville for HuffPo. I have submitted my email and am eagerly awaiting instructions from COMINTERN — erm, Arianna. This is the PERFECT city to cover the ‘baggers. Huntsville literally would not exist without federal spending. They even scheduled the event right in front of the Von Braun Civic Center, which is just a delicious irony. There’s a freakin’ Saturn V moon rocket on it, fer crissakes.Working on a script for some scene-setting shots…

    No Stance too Wide… wow, I think you crossed a line somewhere Carl.Osborne – A teabagger rally in front of a civic center named after an ex-Nazi scientist which we quickly carted away after WWII (before the soviets could) to build space rockets with taxpayer money. You couldn’t make that up.

    I’m still shocked it was Iowa. I mean, of all the states I would have guessed to allow gay marriage…Iowa? I’ve been in Iowa. It’s fucking boring. My mouth is still hanging open.But hey….right the fuck on to Iowa!And Carl…you’ve shocked me before. And that’s not easy to do.

    I would like to officialy trade climates with almost any other poster on this blog.It was 70 a couple days ago.Then we had tornados and it went back down to 30.Then we had 65.Then we had tornados and it went back down to 45Then we had 72.Then we had severe storms and it went back down to 40 today.Tomorow we have 70.Then we’re going to have tornados and 40 again.Sadly, this type of dramatic shift is barely limited to the spring anymore. Solid winter only lasts maybe 3 months here now when it used to be 4 to 5.Good thing climate change is just a myth! Oh wait..

    I haven’t had the pleasure of visiting The Gay Mecca Iowa Kat, thanks for the heads up. Ill stay clear.

  • GItheJOE

    Matthew 2:34,Please for the love of the FSM please show the world what wealth redistribution looks like. What is the median Huntsville income? $45,851 compared to a national average of $50,007 (US Census, 2007).Alabama is ranked 9th overall for tax dollars received. (US Census, 2005) So yes, please TEABAGGERS give ME my fucking money back. I don’t want to pay for the “LOSERS” welfare anymore.

  • GItheJOE

    Git,I was touched by the HIS noodly appendage today. I have faith again.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Broadway Carl – No line too sacred to cross.

    Wait. You mean we were supposed to pay attention to those lines? Wow. That explains some of the reactions I’ve gotten.I have never been to Iowa, but I refuse to believe that there is anywhere on this planet were the only people that suck cock are women. In Iowa the gay folks may be in the silo rather than the closet, but I am sure they are around somewhere. It’s not easy to be gay anywhere (San Francisco excepted), but it really must be tough in Iowa.J M Ashby -If you want to talk about weather see what teh Minx and ceu have to say. I don’t put on a jacket until the low forties. It’s not cold until 15. If it’s in the 20s I actually zip up my leather jacket. Anything above 75 is unbearable.

  • http://tarackian.deviantart.com J M Ashby

    GIJoe – I wonder what that national average income will look like in the next census. Nowhere near 50,000 I would guess, unless the top 10% earn so much as to bump the number up.Time to cook some dinner. Maybe I’ll grace you all with my classless readership later haha

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    JoeJosh -We have to rile up the pirates and the midgets to kick some Malkin, Beck, Limbaugh, O’Reilly ass.I also think the shootings in Binghamton today had something to do with Beck and his Doom Bunker Vagina Monologues™. If his issue was with IBM management, then how does that account for his targets. The IBM layoffs may have been the trigger, but the targets make no sense unless there was something else involved. I suspect Beck was the something else.

  • GItheJOE

    Ash,If you are writing on this blog, YOU READ. If you didn’t, your posts would look like the conservaTROLLS.More….How the fuck did conservatives get the name conservative if they want to use every fucking drop of oil on this planet and the next (Moon Landing)?

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Arrgghhhh. No Keith. I very much like Dave Shuster but I need my Olbermann fix.

  • Pecos BIll

    YIPPWWWWWWW Ki YAY, Bitches (relax, it’s a term of endearment!)Take a nite off.It’s TGIF for crissakes!I’m planning to go to my favorite nightspot (Zydeco) and let the good times roll! Cajon cuisine and jazz,mmmmmmmmmmmmm!Have a great wknd. EVERYONE!

  • AdyLeigh

    “I have never been to Iowa, but I…”SillyGit, that just made me think of Three Dog Night…”Well, I’ve never been to Spain, but I kinda like the music.”We could write a song about Iowa:”Well, I’ve never been to Iowa, but I kinda like the…”(finish the song here).

  • GItheJOE

    Git, did you look at my FB?I wrote about Beck earlier today.Yes, KO needs to come back and give me my fix unless he is on Bill Maher with Rachel tonight. If that is the case, I will have both a female and male orgasm in my pirate suit.Please don’t ask about both orgasms. The Army may have fed me hormones during my last tour.

  • GItheJOE

    Ash,I thought the same thing about the median income. Where the fuck is that thing going when 6 plus million Americans have NO INCOME? If the median income does go up than I want to see what happen to the $250,000 plus crowd. I know, it is the Markist in me that loves class warfare but it is so fun be the crowd without money and with pitchforks. Did you all see that Pres. Obama basically said he would feed the CEOs to the masses if they didn’t act right?

  • jane

    Mmmm, CEOreos.

  • jane

    Twist them open and lick the gooey white center. Then eat the cracker outsides.

  • http://broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    If his issue was with IBM management, then how does that account for his targets.

    From what I understand, IBM was laying of 5000 workers and hiring 5000 workers in India. I think I may have read that in a previous thread so I can’t confirm.Either way, my initial reaction was that it was some wingnut blaming immigrants and brown skinned people for his lot in life. And then the fucking coward took his own after killing innocent people who were taking their citizenship test, for fuck’s sake.So yeah, I’m blaming anyone who may have influenced this nutjob – Glenn Beck or Lou Dobbs or Pat Buchanan. Take your pick. There are plenty of racists and bigots out there in the mainstream spewing their hateful rhetoric.

  • nitesurfer

    Just listened to President Obama’s France speech, in which he told told Europenas to grow a pair and help fight terror. He sounds like Bush on Afghanistan. Uh-oh.

  • nitesurfer

    Europenas, Europenis, Europeons…ah whatever

  • GItheJOE

    Jane, I am not eating that.I am sure you are more familiar with the “creamy” center than most but Ken Lewis would have to be well done before I would eat his crusty ass.HA, crusty ass.

  • ElMystico

    >>SillyGit, that just made me think of Three Dog Night…”Well, I’ve never been to Spain, but I kinda like the music.”Ady, that just made me think of the New Pornographers. Sing Me Spanish Techno? Someone?

  • http://www.osborneink.com Matt Osborne

    GItheJoe, H’town is doing quite well for Alabama. I was hoping to get some shots of the towns between Florence and Huntsville…Ashby, no you can’t make the shit up. And the best part is I don’t have to.

  • GItheJOE

    Matt, GF is from Birmingham and I travel through H’town on the way down. For some reason I never get any political talk out of the Whiteys in Alabama. It is a scary silence of Klan like secrecy.

  • kansasdem

    Give a moment just to feel sad for me! From the editorial staff of one of the local rags:”I have an idea of how to save the Post Office. If everyone would send a tea bag to their congressmen in Washington every day for a month it would bring many millions of dollars into the system.”Just shoot me! Please!Link:http://www.hillsborofreepress.com/content/view/18089388/45/

  • jane

    I dunno, KD. The crazy fuck has a point. Our postal service *is* going to stop Saturday deliveries. This could be a nice infusion of cash into a *gasp* SOCIALIST system that is the US mail!

  • Kanuk

    Obama really wowed them in Europe

  • AdyLeigh

    ElMystico…here ya go (I’ve heard it before, but couldn’t recall the words; only the music):”Travelling at godspeedOver the hills and trailsI have refused my callPushing my lazy sailsInto the blue flameI want to crash here right nowThe hourglass spilt its sandIf only to punish youFor listening too long to one soundSing me Spanish technoGo to now, after wiring the thing to explodeWired for sound, wide awake here for days in a rowNow we see what the engine can doAnd I won’t let this happen to you”

  • kansasdem

    Jane,So we spend more on security in DC (remember the anthrax scare) and that stimulates the economy?To me it makes as much sense as shooting people in a church, or nursing home, or in Arkansas – it’s called “shit happens”! No motive – case closed!I’m still smoked over the Bill Gwatney assassination!Fucking douche bag cops in Arkansas all need to be laid off!

  • jane

    No, I agree, KD. I’m just sort of torn over stopping the madness (if it were possible) or letting them continue shooting themselves in the foot.

  • http://tarackian.deviantart.com J M Ashby

    Douche bag cops are not exclusive to any area.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Heh. CEOreos. I like that.However, I’m with Josh. I like my CEOs slow cooked over an open fire for 18 or more hours. Served with BBQ Media sauce and Cornbread. Yummy. Getting them out of those bulletproof Mercedes shells is the hard part.

  • TruthSerum

    I was strolling through the Blogosphere and thought that I would stop by and say Hello to everyone.Goodnight,TS

    Joe the Plumber is on Bill Maher tonight. I don’t even know how that happens.

  • jane

    Really, Red? Fuck me. I don’t get it either.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Joe the “Epic Fail in Pennsylvania because Union Workers there are not stupid fucks like the nonunion workers down south”® formerly know as Joe the Faux Plumber.

  • http://nadsofthor.wordpress.com Redmond

    Jane. Are you Kevin Nealon the Subliminal Man? That’s how I interpreted your response. And not just because I’m a narcissist.Okay maybe.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Sam “Butt Muncher” Wurzelbackstabber has exceeded his 15 minutes. Next!

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    If you don’t go for it Red, I will.

  • http://nadsofthor.wordpress.com Redmond

    Hmm. We should probably flip a coin, Git. Keep things romantic.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Maybe Maher wanted someone to ridicule. That’s sort of like the fish in a barrel scenario however.

    Beer: My #1 Export. Into my mouth.REDMOND

  • jane

    Wouldn’t that be importing, Red? Exporting beer would be the whole praying to the porcelain god thing.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Romance? I vaguely remember something about that.QT -The Obamas exceeded my expectations which is really saying something since I had high expectations. They are doing a fabulous job over there. I think this one trip erased the past eight years of hard feelings. What a change for the better.This IS Change I can believe in.

  • http://nadsofthor.wordpress.com Redmond

    I’m exporting it from the bottle into my belly. That’s how I look it and semantics be dammed! Or damned! I don’t care.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    I’d forgotten what it feels like to be proud that you voted for someone. It feels very good.

  • jane

    I just call it “repackaging.” I am repackaging this beer. And soon I will repackage it again!

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    When I ejaculate, I consider that exporting. YMMV

  • jane

    Git, sorry to be so goddamn glib (it is Friday, though). Yes, it is FUCKING great to be proud again.Carlos, finally started watching the DVD today! Got distracted by work gossip (see Reno 911 for similarities), so didn’t finish yet. But saw the dick. Awesome! You’re the best. xoxoxo

  • jane

    Okay, Git, I rescind my apology. But I concur on your usage of the word “export” in that sense.

  • GItheJOE

    *exports in the Git sense of the word*Look porn!

  • http://tarackian.deviantart.com J M Ashby

    I just saw a GM commerical selling something called the “total confidence” plan.Good luck with that

  • GItheJOE

    Rachel Maddow is PISSED over the delay of Tammy Duckworth.

  • emsique

    Did I just accidentally log onto a redneck blog? It’s all beer.

  • GItheJOE

    M-seekIt is still winter here and I am allowed to drink my beer. Wine is coming.

  • GItheJOE

    Excellent Fucking Argument Ms. Maddow!!

  • http://tarackian.deviantart.com J M Ashby

    Drinking beer is only allowed in the winter?I guess I’ve been doing it wrong all this time…

  • jane

    No, no, no, JM. Beer is acceptable ALL YEAR ROUND. Don’t let that wine-cooler-drinking fat pussy Joe tell you any different.

  • emsique

    Never winter here, but raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock. Being an expat can be exciting sometimes, like finding the liquor store just down the street that has foreign booze! Not just weird Chinese stuff. Jack Daniels!!!! Tequila!!! Since we are in a country that borders Russia they have GOOD CHEAP VODKA. Got a bottle in the freezer. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. And Chinese beer is good.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    jane -I couldn’t figure out what you were apologizing for. I prefer it when people just say what they mean and what they are thinking.emsique -But it’s really good beer. Chemay Rouge. Later some Duvel.

  • kansasdem

    It’s never too cold for beer, nor to hot for coffee, and exports are always cool given Git’s definition!

  • kansasdem

    Addendum! Even if no one’s in the mood for importing you can always dump your junk on the open market!Now I’m beginning to get the whole free market strategery!

  • jane

    Git, I was apologizing for talking about stupid shit while you were talking seriously about being proud (*sniff*) of our president for the first time in….eons, anyway. But then you made that ejaculating comment, so I took it back.And yay! Chimay!

  • jane

    Seriously, the free market is going to need a lot of towels. Or Sham-Wows.

  • kansasdem

    Definitely Sham-Wows!

  • jane

    Long as you wash them in between Don’t want to spread The Pregnant™.

    It’s the PTT. Serious doesn’t last very long. On Fridays I confuse easily.

  • jane

    >>It’s the PTT. Serious doesn’t last very long.Only reason I keep coming!

  • jane

    Or breathing hard.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Hopefully Bill Maher will SlapChop™ the faux plumber. Talk about Nuts.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    I last much longer than serious. Pleasure is my business. Or is it my business is a pleasure? I always get those confused.

  • emsique

    Bill Maher has the former employee of a plumbing company??????? That’s too fucked up. He looks like Jerry Springer with that kind of bullshit guest. I need a beer!

  • jane

    Emsique has indeed been gone too long.You *have* heard of Joe the not-Joe, not-a-tax-payer, not-a-plumber, right, Em?

  • emsique

    Today is the Festval of Qingming. My wife is off honoring her family from the past, my morning student canceled, and Bill Maher has become Jerry Springer. It’s 10:30 am. Time for a screwdriver!

  • jane

    Qingming. Sounds like a reason to drink. For those pussies who need one.

  • emsique

    I know who that ratfucker is. That he has become a spokesman for the Republicans is such a sorry joke. It pisses me off that Maher would give him a spot on his show. It only gives him attention when he should just be a dim memory of a stupid political campaign.

  • jane

    Oh goddamn Richard Burr. Please please bring more Embarrassment to North Cackalacky. Thank you. Fuckwad.

  • jane

    Dunno, Em, I’ll have to watch, but I’m hoping Bill will give Samuel enough rope to hang himself.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    I can’t figure out why Maher is having him. His 15 minutes ran out last October.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    I know I’ll be disappointed, but I’m still hoping that Bill SlapChops™ Sam’s nuts. I don’t think they make a SlapChop™ large enough to chop the nut Sam wears on his shoulders.

  • jane

    But Git, he’s been a featured speaker at a couple of events recently. I’m also looking forward to this little Esquire feature of the First Dude (whose half-sister has now had a little kerfuffle with the Law). Goddamn, who needs Jerry Springer with ammo like this??

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    His speaking engagements in PA to oppose the EFCA were best described as SamJoe the Butthole getting fornicated by unionized plumbers and other miscellaneous unionized blue collar workers for being a totally ignorant douchebag.You don’t go to Pennsylvania and try to tell people that unions are bad unless you have a deathwish. I conclude that “SamJoe the Republican Douchebag Tool”™ is tired of living. However, he did not appear at the engagement in Philly so he must have figured this out. He is also a coward.He knows nothing about the EFCA, he knows nothing about unions, so of course the Republicans picked him for this effort. Another Epic Fail.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Yeah. First Douche does Esquire. He doesn’t give a rat’s ass about clothes. I can hardly wait.

  • fedup

    “White House Office of Management and Budget Director Peter Orszag laid the groundwork in a conference call with reporters last week for the Obama Administration to drop one of its signature campaign promises from this year’s budget. President Obama repeatedly promised during the campaign to enact a “tax cut” for 95% of Americans as part of his economic rescue plans. But now, as Congressional leaders scale back the president’s $3.6 trillion budget proposal, the Administration appears unwilling to press for the tax relief the president campaigned on.”

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Where are you getting this information fedup?The tax cut Obama promised has already been signed into law as part of the Recovery and Reinvestment Act. People are already seeing it in the reduced withholding rates.You are spouting wrong wing lies. We don’t care much for propaganda here. Give us the citation to your source or shuffle back to Hot Air or Freeperland or whatever lowlife wrong wing rock you crawled out from.Liberals are not as stupid as the vermin you normally associate with.

    Obama’s Middle Class Tax Cut May Not Survive BudgetThe President’s Budget Chief Says Senate Dems May Scrap Tax CutBy JAKE TAPPER, KAREN TRAVERS and SUNLEN MILLERMarch 25, 2009529 commentshttp://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Economy/Story?id=7166810&page=1

    http://news.aol.com/political-machine/2009/03/28/obamas-middle-class-tax-cut-in-jeopardy/This is the first thing that comes up when searching for the first sentence.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Thank you fedup. I apologize for my harshness.I am reading it now.The budget being worked on is really next years budget. This years budget was passed shortly after the RRA.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    I’m sorry I mistook you for a wrong wing drive by troll, fedup. I remember you posting here now that I’ve thought about it, not often, but for a long time.This story is from over a week ago and I missed it at the time. I don’t know what the status is currently. Thank you for pointing this out.Here are the most important points in the story besides the quote you gave.

    Obama’s middle-class tax cut is locked in place for the next two years as part of the stimulus package he signed into law last month, but Orszag told reporters today that the White House will have to use those two years to figure out how to keep that tax cut in place for middle-class families beyond 2010.

    So we have the tax cut for two years regardless.

    Democratic leaders emerged from the 45-minute lunch expressing confidence that they will be able to work with the White House on provisions the president wants included in the budget.

    The Senate will “protect President Obama’s priorities — education, energy, health care, middle-class tax relief and cut the deficit in half,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.

    “We have attempted to preserve — and I think have preserved — the president’s key priorities,” said Kent Conrad, D-N.D., the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee “All those are possible to move forward in the budget resolution I’ve written.”

    Reid said the budget will be passed next week.

    It passed the House, when is the Senate vote?I haven’t heard anything about removing the middle class tax cut. If they can’t make the deficit targets, it certainly could happen for 2011+

  • Fedup

    No worries, it’s my fault really, I should have had the source in there right off the bat.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    On that ABC story, Tapper is a pretty good journalist. He does a good job of getting his facts correct. I haven’t caught him making any big factual inaccuracies.

  • SillyRatfacedGit

    Feed the bots.Alex Witt is a merkin.Ann Coulter is a faux merkin.Joe Scarborough is Mika’s merkin.Karl Rove is merkin Adhesive.Bill’O the Clown says that he’s not an ideologue, he’s a fact based opinion maker. I wonder what universe his ‘facts’ are based on. It’s certainly not ours.
