A Bad Day for Hooter Toters
You know what I love best about Republicans? When something doesn’t work but it’s mean, cruel, and hurtful to a specific group of people, even in the face of failure they just can’t pass up the chance to be mean, cruel and hateful to a specific group of people.
This time it’s hooter toters.
First there is Republican Man of God Jesse Lee Peterson, who went on Fox News to announce ….
He mourns the social change that has brought women into positions of “so-called power” and he explains that a woman’s nature is contrary to responsibility.
“You walk up to them with a issue, they freak out right away. They go nuts. They get mad. They get upset, just like that. They have no patience because it’s not in their nature. They don’t have love. They don’t have love,” Peterson preached.
He also reflects on women’s suffrage: “I think that one of the greatest mistakes America made was to allow women the opportunity to vote,” said Peterson.
Okay, Jesse, fess up. We want the name of the woman who told you to stick it in your ear when you tried to sexually harass her. We want to give her a big box of chocolates, some really cool strappy sandals, and The World’s Most Dangerous Beauty Salon’s Gal of the Hour Award.
And then – holy, holy crap – Rush Limbaugh wants to become the Hugh Hefner of Fat, Drug Addled, Gross Jerks. He has invented “Rush Babes for America.”
On his program today, Limbaugh announced a new National Organizaion for Rush Babes “dedicated to the millions of conservative women who know what they believe in: family, American Values, and not being told by Faux Feminist Groups how to think.”
Apparently, he got a logo that’s a cross between trucker flaps and Siegfried and Roy’s marquee.
Rush —
And trucker flaps —
I don’t like to think about it often, but can you even imagine what size Rush’s weenus must be? And does it take special farm equipment to locate it?
And under the category of, “Oh Isn’t That Sweet – They’re Going To Live With Their Money,” Michelle Bachman just became a Swiss citizen.
Bachmann (R-Minn.) recently became a citizen of Switzerland, making her eligible to run for office in the tiny European nation, according to a Swiss TV report Tuesday.
Arthur Honegger, a reporter for public broadcaster Schweizer Fernsehen, told POLITICO the Swiss consulate in Chicago has confirmed that the former Republican presidential candidate became a citizen March 19.
Swiss, huh? Well, maybe she finally figured out that her political ideas have more holes than their cheese.
Thanks to Sandy, Iris, David, Claudia, Mike, and TexasEllen for the heads-up.
Rather than farm equipment, I’m thinking you’d need a scanning electron microscope…
1Forget mean, cruel, and hateful, bizarre is the most fun measure of Republican tomfoolery. Michelle Bachmen has become a Swiss citizen, that is bizarre. Where are the Bachmans going to reside, as the Swiss have compusory health insurance for all residents? Supposedly the Bachmans began the process of obtaining Swiss citizenship in February, but Michelle continues to vote as a member of the House, truly bizarre.
Two questions: 1. Can she maintain dual citizenship? 2. To avoid US taxes must she live outside this country?
2I don’t the Swiss are READY for Michelle………..but marcus may enjoy himself……
3Well, isn’t that sweet. Maybe she needs a place to hide her money.
My sister and I think it would be a hoot to meet you. Course, we are from one of those foreign states. However, I lived in Beaumont for nearly 40 years, does that count for something?
4Answering my own questions, my sources say she can be a dual citizen, but to avoid taxes she would have to renounce her US citizenship and surrender her passport. There was a recent report that seventeen hundred plus former citizens did that, last year.
5Between Jesse Lee– (who needs to get a set of dentures that fit his mouth and stop buck dancing for Fox News). Rush– who just needs to get it over with and wear a four sizes too small t-shirt over some sagging cutoffs that says- No Fat Chicks while poppin’ off rounds at the brown people down the street and hollerin’ at teen-age girls who walk by. And Michelle B who can now make sure the Swiss don’t become un-patriotic and start giving their money away on socialists things like healthcare (they do) . . .
I need to go down the street and sign up to canvas for the President, donate some more money to Planned Parenthood
and make sure I am not giving my business to anyone still doing
business with Rush and put in a few more volunteer hours at our local women’s shelter.
The GOP . . . .making better, more involved liberals.
6I keep waiting with bated breath for the Republican proposal to repeal the 19th Amendment. Apparently the warning shot across the bow was fired by this idjet pastor. Once again a misogynistic would-be holy-man, make that hole-in-the-head-man, spouts off to disempower women and tries to portray it as God’s message. As a devotee of Bast, I respond: Meh, hiss, hiss, and two scratches of feet.
As for the Rush Babes…”who know what they believe in: family, American Values, and not being told by Faux Feminist Groups how to think.” No, they are just being told by Fox anti-feminist pundits how to think and accepting it! That ain’t thinking!
And last but not least, Bachman is Swiss now. I say, “Good riddance to bad rubbish.” I suppose this is her back up plan in case, shudder, Obama’s liberal socialist evil plan to become the American dictator she’s been warning people about happens. I hope she likes paying the European tax base.
7Uh, does this make Michelle Bachmann an illegal alien? Should Sherriff Joe be notified?
8What does this say about her running for President and then changing citizenship?
I’m still a bit confused on how she was able to claim Swiss citizenship, after all she was born in the same town as John Wayne Gacey in Iowa? no?
so many questions, I was sure that article was from the Onion.
Let us pause for a moment and contemplate with awful awe the sheer bulk of Mt. Rush-bore’s ego. It’s so massive, it has collapsed under its own gravity and become an omnivorous black hole where his soul was supposed to have been. Already the voracious void inside of him has consumed any goodness, emotion, talent, hair, hearing and self-control he ever had.
All he has left in life is to swim ceaselessly in a swirl of his own sadistic sputum, like a shark that must swim and feed, swim and feed, or die. A constant diet of hillbilly heroin and Viagra is necessary to pump up his confidence and his piddly pud. Vile logic-free rhetoric feeds his false sense of superiority. Sexist loveless sexaholism feeds his false sense of adequacy.
Like any shark, Rush needs remoras. Any woman who so lacks self-respect as to sign up to be one of this sicko’s “babes” seriously needs to seek counseling immediately. (There’s probably a pipe, flask or pill bottle that needs to be put down, there, too.)
Serial kidnapper John Jemelske would recognize both Rush and this so-called “preacher” as spirit brothers. It’s 6 to 5 and pick ‘em whether Rush has dug bunkers in his backyard to accommodate his “Rush Babes.” No woman with an IQ bigger than her bra size would risk those odds.
Look out, Michele!
9Does she realize that she cannot get a farm subsidy welfare payment from the Swiss?
Does she also realize that the Swiss have evil socialist health care and higher education?
10What does this do to the Obama-isn’t-a-citizen nutters?
11The “natural born” legal question came up at least five times in Presidential elections prior to Obama’s run. All the previously questionable candidates were white Republicans (Chester A. Arthur, Barry Goldwater, George Romney, Lowell Wiecker and John McCain) the issue flew under the radar until then-Senator Obama’s campaign.
That’s a different angle from “natural born” and acquiring dual citizenship later, of course. Anyone know whether a person with dual citizenship has run for a federal position and if so, what happened?
They just keep topping themselves in idiocy and hypocrisy. I swear they are going to make my head explode!
12If Peterson walked up to me I would definitely freak out right away. Then go nuts. Then get mad. Then get upset, just like that. Then kick him hard right in the Peterson.
13So Rush says he admires women who value ”not being told by Faux Feminist Groups how to think.”
When conservatives say they don’t like anyone telling them what to think, I am glad that there really are no such things as irony meters or cluelessness detectors. If there were, my house would have caught fire a looooong time ago. They seem to love to tell people what to think.
And if he really did not want people telling him what to do, he would not have put that group on Facebook. When will conservatives learn that the private sector can be just as oppressive as the government?
14Amazingly, there will be women who have so little self-esteem they will go along with Limbaugh’s gimmick. I just love that the defacto spokesman (using the word man loosely) of the GOP is the poster child for bigotry.
Gay marriage is legal in Switzerland, might have been one of the reasons Marcus told Michelle they had to have dual citizenship.
15BTW, ‘Reverend’ Peterson is African-American. Unreal
16The Swiss are welcome….. to the Bachmans.
17Yes she can have dual citizenship, in this case through her husband’s claim to it.
I would think there are now issues with security clearances for her membership on the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, as a foreign national and possibly conflicts for the Finance Committee.
18If Jesse Lee Petersen is married, it was probably his wife that “freaked out” and it was caused by the mere fact that she had to talk to him .
God, is there a chance that Bachman will move to Switzerland? I mean that really isn’t far enough away ( a moon colony would be better) but imagine if we didn’t have to listen to the verbal diarrhea coming out of that nasty mouth anymore…just lovely.
19I think it takes a high powered electron microscope to find Rush’s ‘family jewels’.
20I wonder if Bachmann thinks that she’s trashed this country as far as Americans are going to allow and now she wants to see how much damage she can do to Switzerland. Plus, she probably wants to get as close as possible to the money she & her husband stashed in a swiss bank to avoid taxes.
21Though I like LynnN’s response, I feel there is one obvious response to the cretinous Jesse Lee Peterson: point and laugh.
Though the thought of it makes me nauseated, same response to Rush’s pride and joy.
Some years ago there was a prominent and plus-size British politician whose ex-wife said that sex with him was “like having a large wardrobe fall on you with a very small key in the lock.”
22Follow-up from the Master (Twain, not Satan):
For your race in its poverty, has unquestionably one really effective weapon– laughter. Power, money, persuasion, supplication, persecution– these can lift at a colossal humbug– push it a little– weaken it a little, century by century, but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand. — Mark Twain (speaking for Satan)
