Liars and Fools
Liars and Fools
Paul Broun (reptile - Georgia) lies and says President Obama is trying to make himself a dictator
Nope, we deposed the dictator last November.
James Inholfe (retard - Oklahoma) lies and says "President Obama is obsessed with turning terrorists loose in America"
Actually the round ups are about to begin ... beginning with Inholfe and his ilk.
John McCain (Reject - Arizona) lies saying President Obama thinks senior citizens are "expendable"
Oh, really? So his expanding of retirement options (something repugicans would never contemplate - their idea of retirement is for a person not to let the door hit them in the ass as they are thrown out and don't you dare live too long because you'll have no health care) means he thinks seniors are expendable.
Faux's Brick lies saying Obama is a Marxist who is overseeing a "coup" in America
Nope, the 'coup' failed last November after seven years of trying.
Brick continues to lie saying Democrats have "boot heels on the necks of the poor black and Hispanic children" and "want old people to die sooner"
Wrong, it is the repugicans who had them under their boot heels until we threw them off and they don't like the fact we did so.
Brick is delusional (more so than usual) claiming his 9/12 rally "may be the only thing that stands between freedom and slavery"
The only 'rally' Brick will have is a "rally"big rug burn from grabbing hold of his ankles.

Typical NAZI ... Comparing and accusing others of their own selves.
Jim Quinn fear mongering with lies says "tyranny is in your future ... This is literally a Marxist takeover of the United States"
Just more fear mongering from a typical idiot wing nut.
Quinn continues lying saying progressives are "determined to murder freedom"
Wrong, it was the wing nuts who wanted and still want to 'murder freedom'.

Daily Horoscope
Today's horoscope says:
Whoa!
What the heck was that?
Did you just feel the earth move under your feet?
Lately it feels like foundations that you take for granted no matter what are being awfully shifty and unreliable.
It's important to remember that in this world, the only constant element is change.
So while it feels like everything is in a state of upheaval, hold on to a sense of perspective and you'll be just fine.
That I can do.
