Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
So often they’re too true to be funny, but the one about 2,106 GOP candidates made me literally laugh out loud. And another one just today!
1Boy, math class was a long time ago. Only 2,016 so far.
JJ, I hope the flooding missed you and Bubba! Please give us an update.
2I posted #2 and #3 on FB last night. Bernie Sanders for President.
3how long can you tread water Noah?
4OT-Nebraska finally repeals death penalty thanks to Ernie Chambers and his successful 38th attempt to get it repealed. Only 10 souls on nebraska’s death row.
5I don’t believe that cartoon about the number of Republican candidates at all. No Republican politician can count as high as 2016. The correct headline would just say “a lot.”
6Noah treading water is prolly what created the Grand Canyon all those bil…six thousand years ago.
7Some good ones there JJ!
EPO, a Creationist in WA state found some much older fossils while doing some construction work recently and was at least smart enough to call in the scientists. While he on one hand understands that these fossils are well over 6,000 years old, he still holds strong to this Creationist views! How does one hold to such contrasting views without going crazy? Wait…..
8Tenuously would be my best guess,1smartamerican. Old Noah would have to tread water for much longer than 6ooo years to cut through that much rock with a rock saw.
9Yeah canerican, it’s pretty funny isn’t it? His God smacks him in the face with a 60 million year old fish and he STILL DOESN’T GET IT!! smh!
And closer to home, how out Mr Sen. No-Federal-Aid-for-Sandy-cuz-we-cain’t-afford-it Raffy @$$ Cruz demanding and insisting on help for Texas?! What a buffoon; we swing from not in my backyard, to ONLY in my backyard in an eyeblink! Anybody else got whiplash?
10Give him a Botany Bay dozen with a cat’o’nine tails. He’ll gey whip’s lash(es).
11My humblest apologies for goofing up your handle,1smartcanerican. I forfeit my life to you. 🙂
122016?! The Republicans have recovered from 2008? I for one am not ready for 8 years of Obama Derangement Syndrome followed by 4 years of Clinton Derangement Syndrome. Add it up with 8 years of Slick Willie and that’s 20 years of whining by the butt hurt Republicans who never recovered from the Nixon Administration.
Enough of the whining! Bernie 2016 – I want to hear those MoFos cry.
13I think God is punishing Texas for electing assholes.
14Little OT.. Arizona govarnmint (through Mr. McCain, Mr. Flake and others) just sold off Native Indian holy lands. For mining and thus destruction.
15Imagine Europe selling Vatican or Jerusalem like that?
This is so sad.

Unfortunately, that line of thinking always rubbed me the wrong way. I passed by a church near home after Katrina and the sign said, “Why Katrina hit New Orleans.” Unless they were bringing in a weather expert that line of thinking is repugnant. It’s no less repugnant when it comes from our side. The God I believe in doesn’t send storms or natural disasters to punish people.
16Republicans (esp. in Tx) remind me of the silly college kids who move into the rent house across from me and don’t possess a snow shovel; they think they can just gun the engine and conquer the plow berm–until the body of the car ends up teetering on the ice ridge, wheels spinning, and they have to call for a tow.
17Scott, please don’t add to the “both sides do it” meme. There is a major difference between humor/cartoons/satire and ‘get your religion here’ electronic billboards. Is mockery unkind? Perhaps. But given the degree to which some thunder thumpers use religion to bash anyone outside their narrow comfort zone, if there is a God, He or She would certainly forgive us a little schadenfreude. Who knows? Maybe humor is the best gift She ever gave us.
18I just didn’t like comments in the Huffington Post about how we deserve this. There is a difference between pure hatred and snark. I just don’t like snark when human suffering is going on. I don’t know if that makes me uptight or whatever, but we should be coming together in times like these. I grant you that there are many more black hearts on the other side. I say kill them with kindness in times like this. Eventually people will remember that and vote accordingly.
19Scott, no worries, cowboy! Not much can be done about comments at HuffPo or elsewhere. “Kill them with kindness,” that’s something we can all agree as being very effective.
As for “turn the other cheek” ? Some of us are just a little more inclined to deliver a kick to the appropriate cheek to help them out. 😉
