Shaking Out The Dumb
Juanita watched the President’s State of the Union speech last night. You know, the one George Bush couldn’t remember the name of. Gosh, it’s nice to have someone who speaks English in the White House.
Anyway, she was perfectly dead solid proud of the President for calling out the five members of the Supreme Court for giving our country away to corporations, and foreign ones at that.
So, all over the electric computer machine this morning, they are showing Bobble Head Alito shaking his head. Juanita says he was shaking the dumb out, but I kinda doubt that. He also was mumbling something. We will give extra points to whoever can figure out what he was mumbling —-
And don’t even get me started on goofy Mitch McConnell sitting there giggling like a Kentucky polecat while this country is facing serious problems. Has he been drug tested lately? I’m serous, don’t get me started. And sure don’t get Juanita started because Mitch McConnell makes her skin crawl right out the backdoor.
So, if you know what Alito was mumbling, let us know!
Crap, we really screwed up?
(well, I can hope)
1He was muttering, “You lie!” He just said it like a high school graduate, i.e., “Not true!”
2“Not true.” In other words, he called the President a liar. The Supremes are not supposed to show any emotion or otherwise react to anything said when they attend a SOTU even if someone calls them sorry sonsofbitches. I think all these Republicans didn’t have mothers to knock some sense into them. Ole Slitlips McConnell always acts as if everyone is there to see him. Juanita is exactly right.
3Ol’ Alito was probably mumbling prayers to Satan….you know, the guy he evidently sold his soul to.
4I was so proud to watch the president last night. THAT was the man I supported and voted for last year! Masterful! And wasn’t it fun to watch the wingers’ faces just get redder and redder……
I think that Mr. Justice (sic) Alito was shaking his head because the ramifications of his dumb decision were beginning to sink in. It doesn’t take much to form a corporation. Just imagine — The Russian Business Network, Inc. wouldn’t need to hack our systems and steal credit card #’s anymore. They can now use the money they have stolen to buy their own Senaterats and Congressvarmints of all stripes to mold the rules to make it easier for them to steal just like Halliburton, Enron, WorldCom, AIG, CitiCorp, Comerica, etc.
5“Not true” That’s what Alito was saying…as you say, they, the SCOTUS majority have a way of getting me into a tizzy. I’m with you on old Mitch M. and that other guy, from SC who runs around with McCain and Joe L., the unholy triumvirates of the Senate.
6Perhaps he was cussin’ himself for forgetting to send Thank You cards to those seven Blue Dogs in the Gang of Fourteen who eschewed the filibuster and voted for him and Roberts and a bunch of other pernicious legislatin’ Federal judges. If they had stood up to Frist and Lott and and their thugs then we wouldn’t presently have Roberts and Alito on the court and even if the repugs had dropped the Nuclear Option eliminating the filibuster we would have a Medical Care Reform act signed into law now. I know you all remember them, but for the record they were: (drum roll, please) Byrd, Inouye, Landrieu, Lieberman, Ben Nelson, Pryor, and Salazar (now Interior Sec’y).
7Like William Requist, who wore granny panties underneath his meal sack mumu and plaid tuke, Alito is easily distracted by shiny things and imaginary parakeets.
In this case I think he was distracted by the bats flying around Kay Baily’s head and exclaimed, “what, again!”
On the other hand, it might have been, “ni–er, please!”
It’s hard to say.
8Alito said,” Not true,simply not true!”
What was funny was watching Schumer’s eyes go to Alito and then jump up and applaud the President.Dorgin did too!
