George Dubya Bush says that he’s like to see his brother Jeb run for President.

Now I know you’re thinking, “I would, too, Bro!  Hillary 2016!”

But, ponder for a moment about a third Bush presidency.  Liz Cheney as Vice President, two or three unemployed Bush children as cabinet members, and a war in Costa Rica to get even for the Boston bombing.  That’s something to look forward to.

Let me tell you things I’d rather see than another Bush presidency.

1.  John Boehner nakkid

2.  My brain ooze out my ears

3.  One of those Hoarder people move in next door

4.  Catwoman, the movie

5.  An evening with your neighbor’s kid’s hard rock garage band

6.  Being forced to hear the details of an Ann Coulter / Franklin Graham love affair

7.  A Pawn Stars marathon

8.  Sean Hannity anywhere anytime anyhow

9. Being forced on a Ted Cruz Holiday Cruise

10.  The Louie Gohmert Louiepalooza Concert featuring Ted Nugent and enough firepower to level Vermont

Thanks to Frank for the heads up.

North Carolina State Senator Tommy Tucker (the name alone ought to give you pause before you read more) was on a roll last week.

The very white and the very male Tommy Tucker was singing for his supper last week and the main course turned out to be a steaming bowl of government secrecy. That’s how you know that Republicans are involved – secrecy.

State Governments have to publish notifications in newspapers of certain meetings where screwing the public is being discussed.  That way we can know who the screwers are.  Tommy Tucker is one of them.

Tommy Tucker wants to take the public notices out of newspapers and print them only on governmental websites.  You know, under the control of the very people to want to screw us. Tommy Tucker says it’ll save us money.  Yeah, well, so would not paying Tommy Tucker a salary.

So, a newspaper publisher came to speak against the bill.  Because the publisher was using unfair tactics like logic and facts, Tommy Tucker needed a response.  He had a great one.

“I am the senator. You are the citizen. You need to be quiet.”

Well, there ya go.  King George the Third must be prancing all over heaven, screaming, “I was right!  I was right!”

Thanks to Norma for the heads up.

Well, Arkansas State Representative Nate Bell has let us know who the cowards are …

Dude, they trusted law enforcement to do the job.

But, hey, thanks for making it clear that all idiots do not live in Texas.

Thanks to Bosco for the heads up.

What a disappointment this must be to Louie Gohmert (who thought it was Islamic terrorists trying to act like Mexicans) and Ted Cruz (who thought it must be space aliens or liberals).

Rick Perry, who is perfectly willing to let working families go without health care rather than take money from Washington, DeeCee, and who threatens to secede from the union about once a week because the federal government is evil, evil I tell you, is shuffling around with his hat in his hands.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) on Thursday declared a disaster area and said he planned to request federal funds in response to an explosion at a fertilizer plant in Waco that may have killed as many as 15 people.

At a press conference, the governor thanked President Barack Obama for calling for offer quick action after Wednesday night’s explosion.

Oh yeah, this is the same sumbitch who said that Washington DeeCee is spending our grandchildren into poverty.

I just cannot wait to hear what Ted Cruz has to say about this after he voted against relief for hurricane Sandy victims, pompously proclaiming ….

“This bill is symptomatic of a larger problem in Washington — an addiction to spending money we do not have. The United States Senate should not be in the business of exploiting victims of natural disasters to fund pork projects that further expand our debt.”

Let’s watch these two make political hay out of the victims in West, Texas.  I can promise you that few rungs are gonna get knocked out from under their ladder.

I think this is akin to Senator Rob Portman.  When it’s you ox that’s being gored, it’s a different ballgame.

Perry and Cruz both can kiss my big blue butt.
