You know Texas education has fallen like spit off a tall building when this shows up on a Dallas teevee station —

You Have To See This

What kind of junior stinkin’ senator takes on Diane Feinstein?  The kind who wants to go home with his hiney whipped, that’s who.

You gotta see this.

¿Por Qué?

Rick Perry gave a helluva speech at CPAC, saying that some Republican governors have “folded in the face of federal bribery and the coercion of special interest groups”  about Medicaid expansion.  Take that Christi and Scott, you bunch of weenies!

No sireee, Rick Perry is willing to make the sacrifices he needs to make to be President – he’s perfectly willing to sacrifice other peoples’ lives.

But to show you how concerned Republicans are about the growing Hispanic population in America, they booed him when he mentioned “our party must shift appeal to the growing Hispanic demographic.”

Oh, that’s nice.  However, they stopped once he said that it needs to be “an economic message.”  Translated from the original Texan:  We won’t give you a seat at the table, but we will let you clean it.

CPAC – More PAC, less See.

It Ain’t Easy Being a Hooter Toter in Texas

Texas Governor Rick Perry is running for President.  Texas Senator Carnival Cruz (adrift, stinky, and mired in poop) is running for President, too.

So, both being from Texas, they have to decide who’s the meanest.

Rick Perry has a good start.

In the past two years, Texas legislators slashed funds for family planning and passed up $30 million a year in federal Medicaid money, largely to squeeze Planned Parenthood out of the state’s women’s health programs. Researchers say nearly 200,000 Texas women have lost or could lose access to contraception, cancer screenings, and basic preventive care, especially in low-income, rural parts of the state.

His first target is poor women.  They vote Democratic so their health is not important.

Women are suffering and dying because of these political cuts, meanwhile Rick Perry used $3 billion in taxpayer passed bonds for cancer research to reward his political cronies.

Look, I know he’s going to hell for this.  I know that.  But, I just want to make sure he doesn’t go to the White House with it beforehand.

So, call your congressman and ask them to pass a law that no Texan can be President for the next 20 years.  Every woman, child, and person with cancer in Texas will be better off.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Louie, Louie, Me Gotta Go

He’s at it again.  This time at CPAC.

While speaking on a panel entitled “Too Many American Wars? Should We Right Anywhere and Can We Afford It?” at CPAC, Rep. Louie Gohmert kicked off his remarks by railing against the handling of the Vietnam War, asserting that “Vietnam was winnable but people in Washington decided we would not win it!”

Gohmert went on a declare that if the US had made just one more week’s worth of bombing runs over Vietnam, the Viet Cong would have surrendered unconditionally.

If you’ve got the guts, you can click that link above and go see a You Tube of it.

It should be noted that while Louie did serve in the Army from 1978–1982, three years after Viet Nam.  He was in the Judge Advocate General’s Corps, which means the most dangerous place he saw was a courtroom.

Yeah, just a week.  That was all it would have taken.

Thanks to Warner and Tim for the heads up.

My Evenings Are Officially Booked

I just heard that Chris Hayes, the second smartest person on teevee is taking over for Ed Schultz.  He will be followed by Rachel Maddow, the first smartest person on teevee.

So now I have Sharpton, Hayes, and Maddow.  Sorry, Lawrence O’Donnell but I have to watch Duck Dynasty and Storage Wars sometimes.

I’m going out to buy me one of those recliner chairs today and start breaking that sucker in.  Oh, who am I kidding?  You know I already have one, right?
