You know all the hollerin’, fussin’, and snot slingin’ the Texas Republicans have been doing over Obamacare and how if you sign up for it, your biscuits will always burn, your baby will have colic, and your daughter will marry a guy with nine facial tattoos?

Well, come to find out, that’s not exactly true.  A very nice man who is a small business owner and whose wife has a pre-existing condition, and also has a daughter in college, was paying about the same fair price as picture show popcorn for health insurance.  He just now got his letter from the Great State of Texas about his insurance with the Affordable Health Care Act.  Come to find out, it’s a blessing.

Ain’t that amazing?  Obamacare is saving this small businessman a truck load of money.

Thanks to Kathleen and Bananas for the heads up.

Sarah Palin is back pointing her finger again.  She says that Republicans are “gutless” for not shutting down the government over Obamacare.

The political class in Washington, she writes, is “nothing if not gutless and rudderless.” She also suggests the effects of a government shutdown would not be too harmful if the fight over Obamacare funding leads to that.

Well, of course, it would be … to her.  She gutlessly quit her government job.

The last government shutdown was the end of Newt Gingrich.  Don’t forget that.

Ted Cruz.  Because he eats bullets for breakfast and then shoots off his mouth all day, that’s why.

Ted Cruz is now threatening to shut down the military unless we defund Obamacare.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Sunday warned Senate Republicans that refusing to filibuster a bill that defunds President Barack Obama’s health care reform law “is a vote for Obamacare,” and he also advised House Republicans to “shut down the military” if they had to.

He appears to be serious.  But then you never know because he obviously wasn’t being serious when he ran on the platform that he’d be a good Senator.

I suspect he has a PLAN B.  As you know, Texas has many well-reguated militias, some of them having only member and others intent on shooting each other … but well regulated by some magical force that makes them stockpile ammo and Lone Star beer.

Billy Bob and Bubba Hank can take on them Russian and then them A-rabs, too.

They’ve got themselves a bunker right outside of El Campo and they have enough beer and missile launchers to protect South Korea.  With the help of the Teds – Nugent and Cruz – they got this thing under control.

Did you ever think that the Vatican would join the real world faster than the Republican Party? But in all honesty, the Vatican did not have to deal with Cardinal Ted Cruz.

Remember how the folks on food stamps cost our country trillions by selling bets on bad mortgages to suckers?

No, that wasn’t them?

Okay, remember how poor folks got us into a war we didn’t pay for and ran up the debt?

No?

Okay, okay, remember how hungry children paid themselves $175,000 a year plus perks and health care on the taxpayers’ dime?

Well, crap, if you can’t remember that, you you have a bad case of Boehnerphobia or Itchycruz.

But thanks to Ted Cruz and John Boehner, all those hungry children are going to stop ripping off this country, dammit.

Cruz and Boehner have only one demand: reverse the results of the 2012 election or you get a great depression wrapped up with a bow on top.

Thanks to all you pissed-off people sending me emails this morning!
