No, Ann, MY Mental Well-Being.

September 30, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Ann Romney, bless her heart, made another slip of the tongue gaffe yesterday.

Ann Romney told a Nevada television station her biggest concern if her husband, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, becomes president was his “mental well-being.”

In an interview Thursday with television station KTVN, Mrs. Romney was asked what her biggest worry was should Mitt Romney be elected to serve in the White House.

“I think my biggest concern obviously would just be for his mental well-being,” she said.

What she meant to say, of course, was “I think my biggest concern obviously would just be for Juanita’s mental well-being.”

But seriously, if she’s worried about his mental well-being, shouldn’t we all be?  I mean, what does she think he’s going to?  Go nuts and run around the Truman Balcony in his magic underwear singing Ave Marie in his soprano voice?  Crack up and declare war on Canada because that “eh?” thing is really getting on our nerves?  French kiss President of Brazil?

Ann, Honey, I’ve seen who he picked for Vice President.  I think you need to worry about his mental health NOW.

Thanks to Bernard for the heads up.

Ladylike? You Want Ladylike, Jim Bob? Well, Watch Right Here While I Hike Up My Leg and Wizz on Your Boot. But, Real Ladylike.

Todd Akin is just a shiver lookin’ for a spine to run up.

He found mine.

Good Golly Miss Molly, if there is an ounce of justice in this world, when Todd Akins loses this election, women all over the world will knock on his front door and point and giggle at him.  Or, write on bathroom walls, “For a really bad time, call Todd Akin at 1-800-GOT-DUMB.”

He’s now complaining that Clare McCaskill was not “ladylike” in the debate. He compared her to a wildcat, you know, like that’s a bad thing.  A day later, he up and decided to use the “L” word.

On Thursday, Akin suggested McCaskill had acted more “ladylike” when she first ran for the Senate six years ago, according to the Kansas City Star.

Ladylike, that’s testosterone-speak for “shuddup and get me some more coffee.”

Now, since Mitt Romney and the GOP are embracing Todd Akin, their silence on this matter tells me one thing — they agree with the whole ladylike standard for women.  After all …

A lady would never want equal pay for equal work.

A lady would never want birth control on her health insurance.

So, either Clare should put her apron on and act like a lady or the GOP needs to let Todd Akin drown in his own spit.

And, dammit, I mean it.

Thanks to Cheryl for the heads up.

A lady would not want bother the men folks by getting health care at Planned Parenthood.

A lady would never want to frighten a rapist with the pesky problem of getting pregnant.

A lady would never publicly disagree with a man.

Oh Debbie, Thanks For Keeping Louie-Crazy Local

Most of you have met Republican State House member Debbie Riddle around here at one time or another.

She’s a damn crazy woman.

Debbie Riddle: Not Smarter than Cattle

Every place she looks, she sees terrorists, illegal aliens, outer space aliens, feminists, Kenyans and oh dear God it’s a black person in my town.

She is also well known as being opposed to “free” public education and once said, “Where did this idea come from that everybody deserves free education, free medical care, free whatever? It comes from Moscow, from Russia. It comes straight out of the pit of hell.”

And nobody knows the pits of hell as well as Miss Debbie.

Today, she takes on a law school student.  It should be noted here that Miss Debbie has a Master’s Degree in Slaughtering the English Language.  The law school student had the audacity to suggest that American soldiers in Afghanistan be given some sensitivity training about the Afghan people.  You know, since we’re in their country and all.  The law school student’s name is Abdul Pasha, an American citizen.

“Our soldiers do NOT need to be taught how to be sensitive to radical Muslims. They do not need to be worried about blowing their nose wrong or using their left hand and offending someone. . . . They should not be bothered with being sensitive to people who want us all dead! We need a true leader in the White House — a vote for Obama is a vote to destroy our country.”

“Abdul, if you are so offended by our soldiers then you don’t need us or our money in Afghanistan. As an American I am greatly offended that we have had American soldiers killed by the very ones we were attempting to train and help — Afghanistan soldiers. Get a grip fellow — if you want to be an American act like one and be proud of our country and stand up for our military. If you can’t do that then go where people are sensative [sic] enough for you – I guess that would be Afghanistan – where they still live like they are in the Stone Age – but still very sensative.”

In Texas, that is what is known as a walleyed snot nosed hissy fit.  By a freekin’ crazy woman with more snot than hissy.

Thanks to all of you who sent the heads up.

I Couldn’t Make This Up. I’m Not That Clever.

I love George Bush.

He’s the turtle that keeps on snapping.

Former President George W. Bush will deliver a keynote address at the Cayman Alternative Investment Summit in early November. Sir Richard Branson, the British billionaire entrepreneur, will also deliver a keynote address.

That is way cool.

Five days before the election, he’s going to visit Mitt Romney’s money.   And if the airplane gets delayed coming home, Mitt Romney’s entire base will stuck in the Caymens.

Barack Obama is the luckiest man in the world.

Thanks to Ellen and Bubba for the heads up.

Well Play, Doug, Well Played

September 28, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Most of y’all know TexasEllen.  She was the first customer at the beauty salon and kept us up and going for several years.

Her son Doug made major headlines in Texas yesterday.  He did a good thing.  Doug caught a thieving Obama sign taker.

I’ll let Ellen tell it.

It all happened before Doug could install the infrared game camera. After several rounds of sign stealing, son Doug and his neighbors had had enough. Doug parked himself behind a bush with a camera, a camcorder, and an iPhone. In about twenty minutes along came a guy, a lady and a dog. Camcorder turned on. The guy pulled up the sign and Doug dialed 911, then confronted him. The neighbor whose yard had housed the sign also appeared. It took a little while for the Sheriff’s deputies to arrive but the complete conversation was recorded on both the camcorder and the 911 tape. Still photos also taken of perp with damaged signs in hand. Ticket issued for Class 3 misdemeanor which means Jason Koble gets to go to court and fight this or pay $50.

This became a big story in Texas.  Click here, here, here for video, and here.

And if you want your own good looking yardsign like that, here ya go.

Thank you Doug (who looks like his Daddy John) and Ellen.

If It Wasn’t For Bad Taste, They Wouldn’t Have Any Taste At All

September 27, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, so it’s sad when you have to tell your fellow Republicans what is in good taste.  According to Ann Romney, they are the party of classy people.

Virginia Republican Party officials on Tuesday ordered their Mecklenburg County affiliate to remove photos portraying President Obama as a witch doctor, a caveman and a thug from its Facebook page.

The altered photos have been on the Mecklenburg County Republican Committee’s page for months but drew attention outside the rural southwestern enclave after a luncheon event this week with Republican Senate candidate George Allen.

But, they are very nice people, you know.  Real nice.

By the way, this is also the group who thought that the Onion story about Barack Obama’s illegitimate son was true.  Probably because the picture looks so real to them.

Every morning when my feet hit the floor I say, “Thank you God for another day that I’m not a Republican, and especially one of those damfools at the Mecklenburg County Republican Party.”

Thanks to Brian for the heads up.
