  1. I haven’t seen the video as the bandwidth where I am is just above dialup but here’s the link.

    From what I read he talks big until someone confronts him and then runs away to his yacht.

    How the GOTP claims it happened:

    October 1, 2013, 12:01 AM – Mr. President, your plan has worked. Ted Cruz has done exactly what you programmed him to do and activated all our sleeper cells in Congress to reject the Senate CR.

    President Obama (as Montgomery Burns) Exxxcellent. Activate plan Barry-cade. I want those railings moved from the big railing closet in the Situation Room, via stealth helicopter, those three blocks to the WWII Memorial. That is where the first strike will come and we must be ready for it. Don’t bolt them down, or anything, just put up a sign. And then…we wait. Oh, and Smithers?

    It’s McDonough, sir.

    Whatever! Send Ted Cruz a box of Canadian cigars. He’s our boy!

    Neugebauer, born on Dec 24,1949 isn’t even a veteran!
    While his friends (if he had any) were fighting and dying in Vietnam, Randi was studying Business Administration at Texas Tech!
    Randi is a typical Texan Republican, a card-carrying, A-1, full-blooded American Chickenhawk! His backbone is made up of feces-colored jello!

    Boehner ready to be bypartisan on debt limit. My bet is that he’ll up it a nickel at a time so he can continue to blame the Democrats who go along with him. Or he’ll tie it to defunding ACA so he can claim the Democrats forced default.

  12. How much do these idiots expect ordinary people (those of us who aren’t millionaires) will tolerate?

    Why am I not surprised that somebody is shooting up the place?

    People are being pushed to the brink. The total indifference of those who brought us to this point, is beyond belief.

  16. It was a woman who fired the shots. She first tried to ram her vehicle through the White House gate and when that failed she took off for the Capitol Building, exchanging fire with the police in pursuit. She bailed from the car on the Capitol grounds, was wounded and then apprehended. The crazy woman had her child in the car!

  17. I am on beautiful Cape Cod.
    Stopped by the National Sea Shore Visitor and Interpretative Center which of course is closed because of the republicans.

    You can walk on the beaches and grounds but no life guards, park rangers and most importantly no bathrooms.

    There were several people who were visiting from Europe and Australia. They could not believe that people who shut down the government were not in jail. And they were absolutely appalled that these same people were getting paid by the same government that they shut down. One man asked me, why do you put up with this?

    Saying that this is the way a true democracy works seems silly and pointless.
    At what point does freedom become anarchy and at what point is Ted Cruz a traitor?
    (a person who betrays a friend, country, principle, etc.:)
    Because I don’t see him as a friend to this country. I see him and his cronies destroying my way of life, the America I know and love.

    And why, in God’s name are we still paying them to do it?

  20. Mr. Ducky Pajama’s who parties with underage girls has the nerve to ask that innocent ranger if SHE is ashamed? Gawd a mighty, if I had been there, I’d now be in jail for assault. How much of this insanity can we take????????????????

  21. Aggieland liz says:

    Dear Diane, this may be what it takes for America to wake the he!! up and see what is going on; to realize that “da gubmint” IS national parks, museums, loan offices, help desks, presidential libraries, service academies, IRS, HHS, FHA, USDA, NASA, NIH, CDC, EPA, Head Start, Meals on Wheels and a whole bunch of other stuff that we take for granted on a daily basis. If even a few people who didn’t know start seeing this crap for what it is it will help some; if a lot get it through their skulls, maybe things will finally change!

    That’s a different crazy congresscritter (Farenthold). Neugebauer is the one on the high plains (landlocked) around Lubbock who keeps a yacht.
    Here’s the Daily Kos account of the kerfuffle.

    Maryelle, it was Mr Yacthing Randy Neugebauer, not Mr Pedophile in pajamas Blake Farenthold. What IS it with the GOP and pajamas and bathrobes, anyway?

  24. @Aggieland liz,

    It is a matter of taste. They just don’t got none, which is ironic as they are so more likely to be class conscious.

  25. Tim Griffin, congressman from Arkansas, tweeted about the shooting in DC from a closet in the House. He went on to blame Obama for the shooting (since deleted):
    http://gawker.com/ignorant-congressman-hiding-in-cloakroom-already-blam-1440774765

    That pretty much sums up the situation for me. A guy, cowering in a closet, who has not even seen the shooter, insists on explaining the situation to all of us. And feels confident that he is right. Just like his votes in the House. Or maybe he votes in a closet, to be safe.

    26
  26. Sorry about the confusion. Mr. dry-dock still has some nerve trying to shame that ranger.

  28. Marcia in CO says:

    MSNBC has reported that the woman was not the shooter at all and that all the gunfire was from the police. The policeman that was injured, was actually injured in the car wreck … he wasn’t shot. And, the woman … according to what I heard and have seen on-line … was shot and killed. The child in the car was taken to a nearby hospital.

    Just another whack-a-doodle day in DC and this country!!

  29. Glen Beck is trying to convince Louie Gohmert to run for Senate against Cornyn http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/glenn-beck-tries-convince-louie-gohmert-god-wants-him-run-senate

    For several days now, Glenn Beck has been leading a campaign to convince Rep. Louie Gohmert to launch a primary challenge against Republican Senator John Cornyn in Texas. Today, Gohmert called into Beck’s radio program where Beck told Gohmert that he had been praying on the question and the answer that he heard from God is that Gohmert should run.

    Ghomert demurred, saying that he’d need to raise millions of dollars to launch such a challenge, which prompted Beck to tell him that he should not worry about that since God will provide all the funding he would need because “we live in a time of miracles.”

    “You are the guy,” Beck assured him. “As long as we’re on God’s side, who could stand against us?”

    And it was just on Facebook that Wendy has announced she is running for Governor … woohoo!

  33. SteveTheReturned says:

    Neugebauer is an utter piece of filth. Louie Gohmert, at his clownish worst, has never given a performance that approaches Neugebauer’s abusive treatment of that proud Park Ranger, who was doing her best under trying circumstances. God bless the gentleman who came to her defense. I tried to send Neugebauer a suitable email, but the little worm isn’t accepting emails from outside his district. That’s alright, I’ll call his office tomorrow. You west Texas folks who have the misfortune to be represented by this trashy excuse for a man, please do likewise.

    34
  34. Update on the Park Ranger story – she got a call from Joe Biden saying he was proud of her.

    35

  37. Kyle, that means Louie should run. As I recall, “God” has a pretty rotten track record in elections– all the GOP presidential candidates who said he told them to run burned out. (Even Romney, if he said it, which I don’t recall.)

  38. TexasEllen says:

    Prayer works. Gohmert vs. Cornyn cage match should be a fun time. With luck, the Texas economy will be boosted by the out of state billionaires and they will both so grievously offend Texans that a very lucky Democrat ends up in the Senate.

  39. Miss Prissybritches says:

    I passed around a petition tonite at the Wendy Watch Party in Abilene for the Democratic candidate who wants to run against Neugabooga. Neal Marchbanks isn’t necessarily a “candidate on fire”… he needs some amphetamines, or something…. but you look at that fool Neugabauer . . .. OMG.

    You need 500 signatures, or $3500 bucks to become a candidate. Allegedly the $3500 goes to the Texas Democratic Party???? Whatever. Guess it is an interesting show of support?

    Annie’s List is doing what it can to recruit, train, and help fund candidates. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Annie’s List… they are the Texas version of Emily’s list. They have been conducting workshops across the state to encourage women to run for office. They were strongly in support of Wendy’s first race for her Senate seat. Remain so for the Governor’s race.

    Support Annie’s List. They do good work.

    Neugebauer, who is the recipient of many rants of mine… needs to GO. Watch that damned video. Noogabooga is the idiot with the US flag stuck in his suit pocket… because he is such a proud American, veteran, and problem solver in the US Congress. PUKE.

  40. UmptyDump says:

    From the comments by Neugebauer’s constituents in the Lubbock and Abilene newspapers, his blatant bullying of an NPS employee trying to do her assigned job has not gone over well with them either. Hardly any of the rapid teabaggers in his district have stepped up to support him. Look for Neugebauer’s continued arrogance to be suitably rewarded in the next election. And if he thinks he’ll linger in DC afterwards in a cushy lobbying job, he better be reexamining his expectations. The deep pockets that pay for lobbyists don’t hire buffoons, or give them rides on their boats while they’re still in office. Maybe that’s why Neugebauer had to buy his own.

    —————————-
    I corrected the spelling of Randy because Fred’s spelling “Randi” is far too girlish for that ugly dog. So, according to what Fred posted, this jerkoff isn’t even close to being a Veteran … he’s a phony and a fake through and through!!
