As Usual, It Takes a Democrat to Find a Solution

Republicans can’t find a Speaker of the House?

We have a fix for that.

Mark Takano, a Democrat from California, has taken out a Craig’s List ad to help Republicans find a Speaker. Click the little one to see the big one.

  1. A different version printed in The Guardian, including “Gluttony for punishment and lackluster organizational skills a must” and “Box seats for pope”:

    Good one,Rhea. This is great and shows how a liberal arts education can reap benefits for wingnuts. Liberals deserve accolades for truth in advertising,too.

  3. I’m beginning to understand why Boehner drank, and cried a lot.

    OMG … I love it … gotta share this one on Facebook!!

  5. I still think Mike Rowe is the only one who might want the job.

    LynnN, Mike Rowe’s mother wouldn’t let him take that job.

    JJ and Rhea, I love both ads.

    Who’s Mike Rowe?

  8. I nominate Aretha Franklin. When those baggers get out of line she can shout ’em down with a rousing chorus of “RESPECT”.

    I may screw this up, but isn’t there a saying that goes something like “history is prelude”? So you think LaTrump et all Republicans can govern? Just watch kids. Maybe it’s time to redefine these people. Klown Kar and Circus just won’t cut it anymore. Maybe Psycho Ward?

    Marion –

    Rowe is the former host of “Dirty Jobs”. I doubt he’d want this job, though. Except for one brief, regretable lapse when he appeared with Mitt Romney in ’12, Mike has steered clear of the cesspool of politics.

  11. Mike Rowe is on TV on a show called something like The Dirtiest Jobs In The World. Its an odd way to make a buck, but he is a pleasant sort of guy who doesn’t take things too hard. He also sometimes does commercials.

    And y’know what’s really hilarious about this? Apparently no Republican in the House wants to lead the Republicans in the House. It’s turning into a game of tag! Or finding Waldo! Bwaahahaha…

    JAKvirginia,the saying is the past is prologue,whatever that means. You might be close enough

    I nominate Colin Powell. The House needs adult supervision and someone who actually knows how to speak proper English, has foreign and domestic experience and has raised children.

  15. e platypus onion says:

    Chloe Bear-is Powell a real Black person or not?

  16. Polite Kool Marxist says:

    Chloe Bear, General Powell would be an excellent choice! But we must allow him to use corporal punishment, even if the brats enjoy their spankings. Time outs at GITMO are a must, too. For good measure, allow the good general to select a couple of dozen ‘hall monitors’ from Delta Force. And, by all means water board any whiners. Almost forgot; any liars will have their mouths scrubbed out with soap.

    I’ll begin the overdue punishment list:
    1. Paul Ryan for whining
    2. Jason Chaffetz for lying

    Never mind. The shorter list would be who among the 247 doesn’t deserve a time out at GITMO.

    Has anyone figured out how President Obama created this mess? It must be his fault.

  18. Mike Rowe has taken on the dirtiest jobs in the world as part of his series “Dirty Jobs.” He has crawled around in sewers and cesspools. He has sorted trash. He has worked in rendering plants. He has gone into dangerous mines and cleaned up oil spills.

    He might be the only one who could stomach House Republicans.

  19. Marge Wood says:

    I second Colin Powell. And Rowe might prefer crawling around in sewers. Nobody there will backtalk him.
