The Rant & Vent about the Right Wing thread

[mshray]

Posted on FB my Larry Grogan of "Funky 16 Corners":

"A public union employee, a tea party activist, and a CEO are sitting at a table with a plate of a dozen cookies in the middle of it. The CEO takes 11 of the cookies, turns to the tea partier and says, 'Watch out for that union guy. He wants a piece of your cookie'."

America in a nutshell.

Classic.  I'm using that one going forward.

Classic Faux News obfuscation: they're talking about alleged violent demonstrators in Wisconsin, but the clip they show has, er, palm trees in the background.

I've been following the WI supreme court race closely.  The results couldn't be any closer, and an automatic recall is assured.

I had an e-mail from MoveOn (or its successor) crowing about victory in Wisconsin, which I hope does come to pass. But yes, with a margin that small (barely 200 votes) I'd think a recount would be a foregone conclusion. Hoping the margin only widens. And Walker is sent packing, too, while we're at it.

Wow, they must have had election workers up half the night "casting" those ballots.

Jon Stewart last nite:

"The only real difference between Glenn Beck and Paul Revere is that when Paul Revere told you the British were coming, they were, in fact, coming."
