Darlin’, I Need Me Some Of Those Cool Kim Jung Un Sunglasses
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who is a mentally disturbed Tea Party damfool, has made a proclamation.
Democrats are more dangerous to Texas than unstable short Korean dictators with bad haircuts and, oh yeah, nukes.
I do think I’ll be wearing my ta-tas a little higher and prouder for the next few days.
“One thing that requires ongoing vigilance is the reality that the state of Texas is coming under a new assault, an assault far more dangerous than what the leader of North Korea threatened when he said he was going to add Austin, Texas, as one of the recipients of his nuclear weapons,” Abbott said. “The threat that we’re getting is the threat from the Obama administration and his political machine.”
Y’all, I had no idea that I am a cog in a dangerous threat more powerful that a speeding bullet or, oh yeah, a nuke.
I’m proud as a dog with two tails, Honey. I can’t wait to walk up to Greg Abbott and start doing a backwards countdown from 10. Or, we can shake up a coke can and then open it behind his back and watch him have to wade home.
See, there he is in front of his cement bunker.
Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
Finally! We’ve All Been Waiting!
Today is the day.
Debbie Riddle, the meanest craziest woman in the Texas Lege has decided on her cause this year.
Immodest breastfeeding.
I’m not sure what that is, but it could not be good.
Two years ago the Republican men of the Texas Legislature embarrassed themselves by circulating a picture of a nursing woman to make a “joke” about a “nanny state.” Democratic State Representative Senfronia Thompson took to the floor and gave an impassioned speech that to this day still echos in the halls of that chamber, shaming them.
At that time Debbie Riddle stood with the women of the Texas House, although she couldn’t help but patronize Rep. Thompson, who is a lawyer and the longest serving Democrat in the House.
But now Debbie has changed her tune and wants to outlaw ‘immodest nursing.”
Now, I am all in favor of breast feeding – however it is important for women to be modest while feeding their baby – and most women are modest and respectful. But, a bill that would allow for law suits if one “interfered” with a woman breast feeding is really going a bit far. If a business owner objects to a woman who is not being modest then be fearful of a law suit is government out of control.
We already have laws again indecency in this state. But Riddle wants the standard for proper breastfeeding to be left to men. You know, the same men who think breasts are funny and should be joked about.
Let me tell you what is government out of control – government that allows men to make decisions about women’s bodies.
Stuff it, Debbie. Everybody knows you’re held together with hairspray and cobwebs anyway.
Thanks to Warner for the heads up.

Because They Have Trademarked That Word
Texas Republican Congressvarmint Steve Stockman, who is neck and neck with Louie Gohmert for the Crazziest Guy in Congress, is bellerin’ and pawing at the dirt over one of Wolf Blitzer’s comments on the teevee yesterday.
On CNN, Blitzer noted that the explosions occurred on April 15, saying, “It is a state holiday in Massachusetts today called Patriots’ Day, and who knows if that had anything at all to do with these explosions.”
Well, that’s just not allowed. Stockman tweeted ….
“Wolf Blitzer should immediately apologize. The mainstream media once again exploit killings to attack political opponents.”
Uh, Steve, Patriot’s Day is the third Monday in April and it celebrates the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775.
Uh, Steve, you don’t get to own the rights to the word patriot, man, American, day, or even Christmas. However, if Wolf ever refers to ignorant exhibitionist, that would be you. You own that one.
Boy Howdy, I’m wondering if he’s going to pitch a fit over the New England Patriots losing a football game.
Thanks to Brian C for the heads up.
Today
“It is no longer a choice, my friends, between violence and nonviolence. It is either nonviolence or nonexistence.” -MLK
For those asking, Fenway Fran’s people are all okay.
Sweet Georgia
Georgia has themselves a proud white man Governor by the name of Nathan Deal.
Nathan pretty much thinks anything at all that might mean leaving the 1950s is some sort of communist plot to bring socialism to Georgia.
I’d like to think he’s right.
Governor Deal’s latest issue is a movement to have an integrated prom at Wilcox County High School. Most southerners remember when schools integrated, some districts stopped having proms. The white kids’ parents gave them a private prom and that left black parents planning their own, too.
Well, 50 years later, the only thing they’ve changed in Wilcox County is the light bulbs.
Now the kids want an integrated prom, as do the parents and most politicians, including some Republican ones.
But Nathan knows the real thing going on.
Gov. Nathan Deal won’t take sides in the controversy over some Wilcox County teens’ efforts to integrate their prom.
By email, his spokesman, Brian Robinson, said Deal would have no response to a liberal group’s call for state officials, including the governor to speak out.
He wrote, “This is a leftist front group for the state Democratic party and we’re not going to lend a hand to their silly publicity stunt.”
Yeah, and Rosa Parks was just a publicity stunt.
Integration is still controversial in Georgia? Gotta love ole Nathan. Poor man left his brain at an LSD party in 1963.
Thanks to Rick for the heads up.
