Damn You, Texas Democrats

October 21, 2016 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, okay, I’m a little upset this morning.  It seems that east Texas congressslug Brian Babbin went on the electric radio to announce that Donald Trump is right – Hillary Clinton is indeed a nasty woman.

screen-shot-2016-10-21-at-10-50-07-amBut, he explains, he only says that because he is, as he describes himself, “genteel Southerner.”

Who the holy crap uses language like that any more?  Hell, even Alan Colmes made him look like a prissy little woman-hater.

Now, why am I mad at my beloved Texas Democrats?  Because, dammit, there is no Democrat running against this guy.  If he had a Democratic opponent, I could point you there to give him a few dollars or do some phone calling for him.  No, we have ceded that seat.

That crapola has to stop.  Texas Democrats will not be taken seriously as long as we keep hiding under the table whimpering.  Get out from under that table and tell this hateful old man to shuddup.   This summer I am headed out to east Texas to find someone to run against him because I take this nasty woman crap very seriously.  Anybody want to join me?

Thanks to everybody and their Aunt Thelma for the heads up.

Be social and share!

  1. Just read that nonsense. And who the heck is he to be ‘correcting’ anyone. Wish I was close enough to slap him.

  2. Go JJ! You find someone – preferably a really bright, articulate FEMALE Democrat – and I’ll donate to her campaign.

    I’m not holding my breath, but maybe if the DNCC sees a little advance this year against the red wave they will pony up some money so that we can build a Democratic operation. Let’s face it, you don’t get any candidates, much less good candidates if there is no seed money.
    We must push to turn the statehouse BLUE and bring the individual districts back into their rightful alignment if we are going to achieve anything at all.
    Don’t waste the gas on the trip, instead wait until after Nov. 8th and call the DNCC every day ’til you get the $s we need.

    I remember him from elementary school playground. He was out of control, running into and pushing people to the ground. There was nothing genteel about him.

    Nonsense. If Brian Babbin were a “genteel Southerner,” he wouldn’t be calling the former First Lady (of Both the United States and Arkansas) a nasty woman. He’s a jumped-up good ol’ boy, and I hope he gets his behind kicked in the next election by whatever excellent Democrat JJ can find.

  6. What he means is, she is an uppity woman who has the nerve to speak up against a tax evading, woman-hating moron. That is exactly the ploy “genteel southerners” have used for decades against African Americans, women and anybody who didn’t buckle under their control. He needs to go.

  7. What maryelle said.

    And as for “genteel Southerners,” I took French from one of those. He once asked my friend to stop trying to read in French because “I am about to break out in large red welts all over my body.” Another time he said, “Miss Rhea… I haven’t taught you anything about pronouncing French, have I?” The temptation to say, “No, Mr. Tolbert, you’ve been a total loss in that department” was almost overwhelming, but I was about to apply to grad school and he would be giving me a grade.

    So boot this “genteel Southerner’s” behind out of office and get some good Democrats to run! It can’t be that hard for them!

    Nasty. The code word conservative men use when a woman, or a man for that matter, bites to the bone with the truth. File it away under “Caught you, liar!” The usual schoolyard retort is “Yeah? Well you stink!” Regressive politics… takes me back to my kindergarten years. Sigh.

  9. Mrs. Tarquin Biscuitbarrel says:

    Find someone to run against Babblin’ Babin, tell the DCCC and ActBlue, and nasty ladies and bad hombres alike will line up to run him out of Congress, if not out of East Texas!

    I’d never heard of him before today. Helluva introduction, dontcha think?

  10. Yeah, “nasty” is a code word for “uppity,” like “slut” and worse (mama’s watching) are code words for “I’m mad because I don’t control your sex life.”

  11. The GOP is hopeless

  12. Hillary Clinton is exactly as nasty as she wanna be.

    And as nasty as she has to be with guys like this and Trump around.

  13. Brian, us women folk have embraced the nasty! We know for sure that well behaved women never make history! Maybe you oughta listen to the Janet Jackson recording of Nasty Woman! Before you do, nail your socks to your feet.

    Signed:
    Another Nasty Woman!

    Count me in to help keep the new women’s movement rolling. We hold up half the sky. It’s time we held half the seats.

    I worked for the ERA once. I’ll do it again.

  15. JAKvirginia says:

    Sweet Crabby: If the statistics in America are correct, women hold up MORE than half the sky. It’s not “nasty” to demand what you deserve. I’m a man but I will have no problem helping women get there. It’s WAY overdue.

  16. Yeah, I think that was pretty coded language. “sometimes a lady needs to be told when she’s doing something nasty” is a threat from a “genteel southerner”. “Ladies” get treated differently than “non-ladies”. If a woman doesn’t behave like a “lady”, she will lose the “protection” that comes from being regarded as a lady. And, of course, they get to decide who qualifies as a lady, etc. so some people – gay, poc, trans don’t even automatically get the option of being regarded as a “lady” under this system (see bathroom bills, etc).

    I’m also a nasty woman for Hillary and every down ballot D brave enough to run. I’m with JJ on making sure we have a D in every slot. FWIW, my son plans on running for TX senator as soon as he’s old enough. If he wins, I think he’ll be the first openly Autistic person to be Senator.

  17. Never having heard of Brian Babin, and being suspicious immediately of someone who self-describes as a “genteel Southerner”, a code phrase which I have learned translates to “24×365 raving racist”, I decided to review Mr Babin on the interweb. Wikipedia had quite the little biography of this racist schmear of DNA.

    So Babin hates … well, just about everybody.

    I, for one, am with that Nasty Woman! I’m with HER all the way. After all, I am a Nasty Woman too 🙂

  19. Here in Angelina County in East Texas, most local positions have no Dem running. You can win if you don’t even field a candidate. Our county Dems have been mismanaged for too many years by the Chair and his wife who just didn’t really seem to care. But we have a new Chair and new blood and I am hopeful that we might start to see some change.

  21. SouDakota has a bunch of uncontested seats. No Democrats. They need lots of everything. epo, do you know how bad it is? 1/4 of legislative seats with no Democratic candidate? Sad, very sad,

    Some Congressmen need to be told they’re disgusting bigoted sexist a$$holes.

  23. I know I’ve mentioned this before, but the Texas Democratic Party Destroyed my Brothers Life. He was one of those Rural Texans that answered the call, he was a Democratic Baptist Preacher in the Clebourne area(Perfect Candidate, right?)…… the party called, he stepped up. In the course of the election process, the Party pulled all support 1/2 way in, Not being a quitter, my brother did manage to complete the process, pulling in 33% of a blood red district, but lost everything, and I do mean everything, in the process without as much as athank you from the party. He lost his job, his house, had to leave the county…….The stress of which caused a massive cerebral hemorrhage two years later……for all intents and purpose he gave his life to The Texas Dem Party….. and they abandoned him…. I want Texas to go blue more than you can imagine, my mother is still there, and every time I go to visit I fill like I have landed in a Hostile Foreign Banana Republic. With this kind of treatment from the party, why on earth would anyone chose to put their life on the line in small town East Texas? Clean house, Get some real Democrats to run the party instead of hand ringing ninny’s, and then Maybe ya’ll can entice someone else to step up and risk everything, and hopefully they will survive it better than my brother did.

    If THEY won’t step up, YOU step up. May I write in Susan’s name in those races that do not have a democrat listed?

    That’s sweet, Katherine, but you have to be a declared write-in in Texas. I ain’t.
