Heads Up

August 10, 2013 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Tomorrow morning, 9:00 a.m. my time on This Week with George Stephanopoulos …  (I lied.  It’s 10:00 my time)

Plus, as potential 2016 candidates start trekking to Iowa, we go one-on-one with Donald Trump on his weekend visit to the Hawkeye State. And the powerhouse roundtable debates all the week’s politics, with Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, and ABC News’ George Will and Donna Brazile.

Louie Gohmert with Joaquin Castro!

I wonder if Louie is going to challenge Joaguin to prove he’s not an Islamic terrorist in disguise.

And they just throw in Donald Trump for some extra stoopid on top!

I might stay up all night waiting!

Thanks to Cynthia for the heads up.

Meanwhile, in Vermont …

The only thing more scarce than a liberal Democrat in Texas is a Republican in Vermont – especially a Tea Party Republican.

But they have one far rightwing one named KrisAnne Hall and her group has 12 LIKES on Facebook.  A dozen.  Total.

So when the local Vermont Republican Party invited her to speak, they seem to be culling the herd down to less than a dozen votes.

Well, she used to be an assistant state’s attorney in Florida. She was fired in 2010 for giving political speeches at Tea Party rallies “educating ‘citizen groups’ about the Constitution,” and defying her boss’ order that she stop doing so.  She used her firing as a springboard into a new career as a public speaker and living martyr for the Cause.

Her website goes wild all over the GOP.  They are far too liberal for her.

So, if the Vermont GOP is turning right, ain’t they sending the breeding stock over to the Democrats?

And can’t Vermont send some to Texas?

Why not?

Thanks to Carol in Vermont for the heads up.

Damn Democrats

Just when you began to think that there were no Democrats in Texas, along comes our Attorney General Greg Abbott to explain why we keep some around.

In answer to US Attorney General Eric Holder’s charge that Texas redistricting discriminates against minorities, Abbott’s office explains

DOJ’s accusations of racial discrimination are baseless. In 2011, both houses of the Texas Legislature were controlled by large Republican majorities, and their redistricting decisions were designed to increase the Republican Party’s electoral prospects at the expense of the Democrats. It is perfectly constitutional for a Republican-controlled legislature to make partisan districting decisions, even if there are incidental effects on minority voters who support Democratic candidates.

So, the redistricting discriminates against Democrats and, by gawd, it is not Greg Abbott’s fault that minority voters vote Democratic.

Nobody know what Greg Abbott did with the money his momma gave him to go to law school.

Thanks to Kathleen for the heads up.

¿Cómo esta Usted al Qaeda?

Oh, damn.

Louie Gohmert truly did kill two birds with one stone.

Louie has figured out that Islamic terrorists are learning to speak Spanish so they can pass as Mexicans.

Prepare your soul for this.

“The FBI director has confirmed more than once that we know that there are radical Islamists that change their names to Hispanic-sounding last names, they come to Mexico and get and ID, and some of them even learn a little bit of Spanish so that they can try to act as if they’re Hispanic,” Gohmert said (video below). “Why? Because we don’t have any fear of Hispanics coming into the country, but we’ve got concerns about radical Islamists.”

So how do you make people hate Muslims and Hispanics in one fatal blow?  Call Louie.

I have heard that there are East Texans posing as Americans and they even learn to speak a little redneck before they advocate secession and the violent overthrow of the United States of America.

Holy crap, Louie, are you in for a shock when you meet your maker because Sky King also made everybody else.

Thanks to all for the heads up.  I would like to add that this is my first post on the MacBook so that’s one down.

Fun with Guns: Groin Edition

August 09, 2013 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

So, here’s the story.  A man in Norfolk, Virginia, in full daylight, was speeding down the street in a residential neighborhood where kids were playing in and around the street.

A couple of residents waved at him to slow down because – obviously – there were kids out playing.  Man does a U-Turn and comes back waving a pistol and hollering.  He wanted everybody to know that he has Second  Amendment rights which also give him neighborhood speeding rights.

In the process of scaring crap out of everybody, especially the little kids close by, the pistol goes accidentally goes off.

He shot himself, thank God.  In the groin, oh yes thank you very much God.

They say that God works in mysterious ways.  Nope.  God knows exactly what he’s doing.

Thanks to Hilary for the heads up.
