Remember how hypocritical King Street Patriots woman Cathy Engelbretch who strutted her stuff and challenged me on voter fraud and then I found out she lives in my little 10,000 person hometown?

Well, the neighborhood is going to the dogs again.  There’s a genuine Fascist.

James Ives, a prominent Tea Party activist who has hosted statewide rallies and political debates and has been a regular contributor on conservative radio, was the AFP’s fourth in command, commenting about the party’s principles on a fascist message board. An image of Ives in what appears to be a black uniform with yellow shoulder patches can be seen in a 2006 promotional video for the party.

I did not even know there was a 4th in command of the Fascist Party.  Does it require a uniform?   Can we send a drone?

Now James, since he’s been corralled and tied to the fence, says he has a good explanation for his ties to the American Fascist Party.  He was just experimenting and didn’t inhale.

Seriously.  The reason he posted weird crap on a fascist message board?

He said he believed he’d uncovered an underground cabal — and decided to stick around to do research for a “political novel of intrigue.”

“I thought, ‘I can blow the lid off of this. … I can go inside and find out what’s going on,’” Ives said.

Ives never wrote a novel. He did write a range of posts on the party’s Yahoo message board, communicating with his fellow “blackshirts” and the party’s chief organizer, a man who identified himself as the “Glorious Leader.”

Dude, that ain’t “experimenting,” that’s full hog.

Now, I looked up this guy’s address and he lives in a local neighborhood called Tara, where the streets are named Jeb Stuart, Grant, Gettysburg, Stonewall, and Jeff Davis.  But I didn’t have to tell you that, did I?

Local Republican Tea Party politicians are acting all shocked and awed about uncovering one of their own.

State Rep. Rick Miller, R-Sugar Land, who spoke at an event for the Greater Fort Bend County Tea Party last week, said he first heard about Ives’ possible connections to fascism on Friday, in a meeting of concerned conservatives. “It does sound like something worth following up on,” he said.

Ya think, Big Rick, ya really think so?  Yeah, if I was following around a fascist I’d might look into it, but since you were also following around a man who bragged about committing voter fraud by voting in two states at the same time, I didn’t think you really gave a crap about the people you pal around with.

Now what was Ted Cruz saying about the faculty at Harvard Law?  Hellfire, Darlin’, we’ve got more admitted fascists in Richmond, Texas, than they have communists at Harvard Law.

Thanks to Michael for the heads up.

I have been informed that Bill O’Reilly is getting a divorce and that it’s getting nasty and he’s trying to destroy his ex-wife’s life and get her kicked out of heaven and take her kids away from her and he’s a vengeful rotten ole goat and no telling what nasty thing he’s going to do next.

I am shocked, shocked I tell you.

I cannot believe that Bill O’Reilly was married.

The rest of it, I believe.

Thanks to Rick for the heads up.

You know how the Republicans are always saying that we shouldn’t subsidize PBS?  They say, “Hey, if it’s so popular, it can make money in the marketplace.”

Let me explain how that works.  Take The Learning Channel, for example.

TLC is an American cable TV specialty channel owned by Discovery Communications. The channel was founded in 1972 by the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare and NASA. Initially focused on educational content, by 2001 the network began to primarily focus towards reality-style series involving lifestyles, family life, and personal stories.

Disney bought The Learning Channel and we went from NASA to Honey Boo Boo and exploiting midgets.  Way to freekin’ go, Disney. Yea free market!

And now comes The History Channel  – which features Pawn Stars, Ax Men, Ancient Aliens and The Bible and is owned by private enterprise A&E.

In case you’re wondering how The History Channel depicts the Devil in it’s series of The Bible, here ya go.

Look familiar?

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Kinda makes me want to get drunk and then go do the wild thing with another woman, steal her boots, lie to the police about  it, donate her boots and a voodoo doll to an abortion clinic raffle, and bow down and worship Hillary Clinton.

How ’bout you?

Thanks to Vickie for the cool picture.

You know how Republicans in Washington DeeCee are appalled, just appalled I tell you, that our nation has debt and that we should live within our means.

Oh lookie over there!  It’s the Hypocrisy Fairy!

… many of the same lawmakers who are urging the nation to balance its books are themselves in debt and have taken out personal and/or business loans.

Really?  Well, 14 of them have more debt than the average American working family.

The Texans are my favorites.

House Budget Committee Member Roger Williams (R-TX): Said Wednesday: “We have to have a balanced budget. I have to balance my budget. Everybody in America has to balance their family’s budget or their business’ budget, not every ten years, not even every single year, but every single day.” Reported more than $2.5 million in business debts

And —

House Budget Committee Member Bill Flores (R-TX): Wrote: “It’s time Washington was forced to finally live within its means and cut up the credit cards. Every American family and 49 out of 50 states currently abide by some form of a balanced-budget requirement. If they can make the hard choices to pay their bills and live within their means, then Washington should too,” and “American families and businesses must live by this principle every day, and they want Congress to abide by the same rule.” Reported two mortgages on residences totaling over $1.5 million.

You can go check to see if one of them is your congressvarmint. 

Ah… the sweet smell of hypocrisy.

Thanks to Sharon for the heads up.

New York Republican Assemblyman Steve Katz is vehemently against marijuana, even medical marijuana.  He  apparently drew this position while stoned.

Last week, Katz was ticketed for doing 80mph in a 65mph zone.  He also possessed marijuana in his car.

Katz, who is on the state’s mental health committee,was ready with an answer:

“This should not overshadow the work I have done over the years for the public and my constituency. I am confident that once the facts are presented that this will quickly be put to rest.”

Questioned by a reporter about whether voters might draw conclusions from the traffic stop, Katz said, “That’s exactly what I want them to do.”

He then added that he has voters right where he wants them – fetching him a large bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos at the gas station grocery section.
