Walk It Off

January 24, 2020 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Remember when Trump said there were no injuries when Iran attacked a US base in Iraq?

That’s the truth, well, except for 34 of them who have been diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury.

But this is a new form of TBI that isn’t actually physical and certainly isn’t serious, said Dr. Trump

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, President Donald Trump on Wednesday downplayed the injuries as “headaches.”

“I heard that they had headaches, and a couple of other things,” he said during a press conference. “But I would say, and I can report, that it is not very serious.”

According to the DOD, brain injury was “about 22% of all combat casualties from Iraq and Afghanistan.”

So, ya know, it can kill you, but hey, walk it off.  After all, what’s important?  Your brain or Trump’s perfect war?

Tell me again how much he loves the troops.

 

Susan Collins Is Playing Maine

Okay, get a load of this.

Susan Collins sent a handwritten note to Chief Justice Roberts at the end of Jerry Nadler’s speech on Tuesday night.  Minutes later, Roberts chastised both sides.

Now, imagine for a moment that a Democrat sent a secret handwritten message to the Chief Justice.  Sean Hannity would bust a vein in his neck and Moscow Mitch would start babbling hate speech in Russian.

Collins was reluctant to acknowledge any contribution to the remarkable rebuke of the parties arguing the impeachment trial. When she came off the floor about 2 a.m. ET Wednesday, a reporter told her that she was seen handing a note up to the dais, to the parliamentarian, she replied coyly: “Who me? I did that?”

She said that? She did? And she expects me not to be outraged by it?

By the way, I am delighted that Adam Schiff’s remarkable speech last night was aimed at the American people and not the Republican senators because (1) the American people understood it and (2) Collins ain’t gonna do crap and I seriously doubt that Romney will either.

 

Just Bang Me, You Hunka Hunka Burnin’ Love

Okay, y’all, Ted Cruz, that master of communication and Harvard debater, is talking about something usually left in locker rooms.  And you’d think that Sean Hannity would know that.  Not that Cruz or Hannity have ever been in a locker room, but …

 

 

No, guys, it’s pound the facts, not bang the facts. Bang means something else entirely.  You know, like mattress wrestling or getting frisky.  It means that.

However, it’ll be lots of fun to see a bunch of old white guys talk about banging facts and law.  In truth, it’s probably a confession because that’s exactly what they they are doing.

I can’t believe he said that.  He’s a lawyer, for goodness sake.

 

Yeah, Real Sorry

Tarrant County (think Fort Worth) Republicans decided it would be a fun thing to march in the MLK parade. So, they all got together, somebody picked up the sign, most of them found something red to wear, and off they went to … be real cute and flash the OK sign for a group picture. On MLK day. On film. On Facebook. In the newspaper.

 

 

The GOP group apologized and acknowledged it was an inappropriate gesture for the setting.

“For the setting?”  But, yeah, it’s real okay any other time.

Okay, here’s the Republican rules: the white power sign must be holstered on MLK Day.

 

Moscow Mitch Is The First to Blink

January 21, 2020 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, so remember that 24 hours of opening arguments had to take place over two days?

McConnell amended his organizing resolution for President Trump’s impeachment trial by giving each side three days to make their opening arguments, which can last for up to 24 hours, the same amount of time given to the prosecution and defense during the 1999 impeachment trial of President Clinton.

But, in exchange for blinking, he ordered that …

 

 

What about the kool-aid?

 

Call The Salvation Army To Pick This Crap Up Because We Sure Don’t Need It

January 21, 2020 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Here’s the Republicans handing us a scam impeachment “trial” of a president seeking to be Dear Leader and Premier rolled into one, and what do we do?  We screw it up by starting a family feud.

A four-hour docuseries about Hillary Clinton will premiere in its entirety March 6 on Hulu, the Hollywood Reporter reports.

In it, Clinton slams Sen. Bernie Sanders: “He was in Congress for years. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. It’s all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.”

She refused to say whether she would endorse him if he won the Democratic nomination.

Shut the hell up.

Obviously, someone likes him or you wouldn’t be so damn bitter. He has friends. Some people like him. Just shut up.

Even suggesting that you might not vote for him if he’s the Democratic nominee belittles you and the entire damn country. But mostly it belittles you. Shut up about it.

This just makes me want to sit down and cry. Please don’t patronize Democrats who support Sanders. I know some Sanders supporters who can give you a dozen rational reasons for supporting him. They were not sucked into it, they thought their way there.  Don’t tsk-tsk them.

I have stayed out of the Hillary fight because I support anybody who will run against Trump.  I would even support Hillary, again.  If she’ll just shut the hell up about petty crap like this.

Yeah, I’m rolling my eyes.
