For Pete’s Sake

June 29, 2017 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Pete Olson is my own personal congressvarmint.  I don’t talk about him much because he’s furniture. No, seriously, he does nothing in Congress and can only rarely be identified from his desk.

But, he’s gotten a little feisty lately.  He took his little anti-choice self and went on the electric radio to announce that he shouldn’t have to pay for pre-natal care health insurance because he can’t get pregnant.  In fact ….

Olson laughed about it and said, “We have what’s called an X chromosome . . . which means we can’t have a baby. Why do we have to pay for that coverage we can’t use?”

Well, wait a minute.  Didn’t you use it as a fetus?

And secondly, an X chromosome doesn’t make you a man, and apparently a suit and a seat in congress doesn’t either.  Honey, it’s the Y chromosome, but I’m perfectly okay with whatever he wants it to be.  Maybe he marches in the Chromosome Pride Parade and there’s nothing wrong with that.

 

The REXon Valdez

It appears that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson had himself a snot nosed walleyed his fit at the White House in front of a crowd that included Reince Priebus, Jared Kuchner, Tillerson’s Chief of Staff Margaret Peterlin.

Tillerson exploded over issues that had been building for months.  The straw that broke the camel’s back was Johnny DeStefano, a political operative for Trump, telling Tillerson who he could and could not hire at the State Department.

Tillerson also complained that the White House was leaking damaging information about him to the news media, according to a person familiar with the meeting. Above all, he made clear that he did not want DeStefano’s office to “have any role in staffing” and “expressed frustration that anybody would know better” than he about who should work in his department — particularly after the president had promised him autonomy to make his own decisions and hires, according to a senior White House aide familiar with the conversation.

Yeah, well, we all know that the president’s promises are biodegradable.

Tillerson, who I imagine is pretty much used to getting his way, decided that maybe the president’s young and inexperienced crew might respond to hollering and promises to get a switch off the willow tree in the backyard.

They didn’t.

Kushner, who has cornered the market on gall, reportedly told Tillerson’s chief of staff that his “outburst was completely unprofessional.”

Oh, I imagine that Tillerson is going to have something to say about that, don’t you?

Screw Mika and Trump – this is the fight I want to watch.

A Signing of the Times

Donald Trump cannot get diddle squat done.

For some reason, he doesn’t want his supporters to know that.  So, in what might go down as Olympic qualifying goofiness, he has taken to signing memos ceremoniously.

This is an honest to gosh picture of Trump signing a damn memo saying he supports privitazation of air traffic control.  Everybody else writes that stuff on a sticky note, but not Glitter Donald.

 

Look at Ted Cruz standing there like Trump just named him Man of the Damn Decade.

The more I watch Trump, the more I know Marco Rubio was right about the small hands.

 

Oh the Horror

I have talked to you before about the small Texas town of Victoria, close to the Gulf Coast and as red as a radish. Victoria has three Baptist churches within a three mile area because they can’t get along with each other.

Much to my delight, Victoria is large enough to have a newspaper, but small enough to print the the weekly crime report, my favorite reading.     I have Democratic friends in Victoria who send me the crime report when it’s especially good in their oh so Republican town.

You are going to love this one.  Under “Stolen” near the bottom are Hidden Pleasures.

And whoever did $200 worth of damage to front yard religious statues is going straight to hell.

Ya know what, Victoria could surely use some family counseling.

Oh, those great red Texas cities.

 

Sorry

I wanted to make some snide remarks about Syria and how Trump doesn’t talk to his generals, but I have granny duties today.

Y’all chat away!
