Mitch Has It Figured Out
Good Ole Mitch McConnell. He’s decided that the last thing Republicans should talk about is Republicans.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is urging Republican delegates to focus on a single politician: Barack Obama.
McConnell focused nearly all of his speech during Saturday’s Kentucky Republican Convention on opposing the outgoing Democratic president. Not mentioned were any of the potential Republican alternatives, who are embroiled in a nasty fight over delegates heading into a possible chaotic national convention this summer.
Well, the way I see it, there’s a loophole in that reasoning. Can you figure it out?
Look, I can’t blame McConnell. In fact, Republicans are the last thing I wanna talk about, too.
KY. best known for fast horses and slow senators.
1Bless his heart.
The sight of old Mitch out on a tree limb so early in the morning brings out the team spirit and urge to offer him a chain saw. Obviously, President Obama isn’t running for a third term. However, for Mitch to highlight the Obama successes that are ‘destroying’ the country is an admission that the snacilbupeR failed in their many promises to “stop Obama.”
1) problem #1, you failed Mitch.
2) Merrick Garland now or lose the Senate, Mitch
3) down ballot candidates cannot acknowledge the nacilbupeR presidential choice
There’s a song in all of this: ‘Running in a Bubble’
2Au contraire there Senator McTurtle. I want to talk nacilbupeR candidates. All day long. In fact I want to confront my nacilbupeR brothers and sisters with these candidates of theirs and beat them f’ing bloody with ’em. How the he&& do you expect me to maybe vote nacilbupeR if your want send me human beings to begin with???
3@PKM
You sure that nacilbupeR theme song iddint “Running on Empty”?
4Sen. McConnell: What are your plans to serve the needs of the citizens of these United States?
Answer: Hate Obama!
Well, that will do lots…
5PKM-Bundy’s cattle are wandering around,lost in the desert and starving. Go pick yerself up a bunch of cows and calves for free.
6Micr, “empty” works. But like the Slinky, think of the fun to be had with snacilbupeR in bubbles. Pop a bubble. Stomp a bubble. Roll them like a hamster on an exercise wheel. Or, simply watch them float away …..

7e platypus onion, thanks but in this case I don’t think “free” means what you think it does. We need to be air dropping food to those critters, but don’t think it will make them kinder and gentler.
8The old magician’s trick: Wave right hand wildly. Shriek “Lookee over here!” Madly stuff pigeon in your left-hand pocket.
Except Mitch has never, ever done anything so honest as a magician’s trick.
9I agree with PKM.
As alone as Bundy the welfare queen and his followers left their cattle, the cattle are likely for all practical purposes feral now. Tom Lasater is probably rolling in his grave to know men such as Bundy calling themselves “cattlemen” treated the bovine with such disregard.
10@PKM
11I see your point.
Hey, PKM —
Another thing Mitchy Boy failed at: Remember when, in the midst of the largest recession since the Great Depression, Mitch declared that his number one priority was to ensure that Barack Obama would be a one-term president?
I do. And he didn’t. Just another failure in a long line of em.
12Mitch is still determined to make sure that President Obama does not win another term.
And he will succeed! He has picked a fight he can actually win.
13Stick the fork in, the RKlan Party is done. For years the rethugs have had no positive ideas, just fight the black President. It was all they could think of and now, on the cusp of finally seeing him ride off into the sunset, they realize they have nothing else but to turn that hate onto themselves.
14The party of hate is now the party of nothing. Nice job, McTurtle!
Nothing old,nothing new nothing ventured
Nothing gained, nothing still born or lost
Pack the artillery and sally forth to do battle with the beasties.
15McTurtle the LOSER!
16two crows, who can forget the ignoble Mitch and the cabal that gathered to “make Obama a one term president” and plot to obstruct anything and everything that would be proposed by the yet not inaugurated President?
Would it be hyperbolic to suggest they should be tried for sedition and strung up with traitor Tom Cotton and his merry band of 47?
Barring that, every voter needs to be reminded every day until the 2016 general election of what they have done or mostly not done for almost 8 years. Boot the moochers out of office by ballot or recall them in the case of Mitch and any not up for election this year.
They wanted to play Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar.” I say we greet them with a resounding Lady Macbeth “out damn spot.”
17Right you are, PKM, but not only have they not accomplished a thing and set us back decades during these 8 years, their wonderful Bush party sent us into the Recession, with 2 wars and unbridled greed allowed by ridding themselves of the dreaded banking and Wall Street regulations. That’s something else we must keep reminding the voters.
18Thanks God President Obama and his administration brought back our economy and passed the Affordable Care Act, nuclear disarmament with Iran, improved nonproliferation with Russia, environmental treaties with our allies and tried to stop the deportation of hard working immigrants so necessary to the growth of our nation. It’s amazing he was able to do so much given the obstruction of the RKlan.
maryelle, remember the snacilbupeR 2008 refrains? and They’re still playing that cricket refrain as if those 8 years never happened. Just the other day Loathsome Teddie was bemoaning the national debt which in his fairy tale world is of course all Obama’s fault. Wars? What wars? Forget all mention of a heap of s’nacilbupeR off budget deficit spending for those wars that miraculously came due during a Democratic administration.
They still think SOFA is an item of furniture, thus not the status of forces agreement the Bush war criminals struck with Iraq as to an expiration date for our welcome in Iraq. Damn that Obama for pulling out the troops as negotiated by the Bush team.

19Evil Cousin Mitch. Thank Goodness Grandma’s side of the family was good looking!
20maryelle, I wish we could stick the fork in ’em, but I’m afraid we still have a long way to go. They’re the ones who have gerrymandered the dickens out of every state in the nation, and they have resources keeping their scaredy-cat little followers hollering for more. Some of the voters have figured out that they’ve got a mess on their hands (one of my siblings said recently that “we don’t have any good candidates” running for President), but they didn’t get the memo on the definition of stupidity.
21Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote. Help your family members, neighbors, fellow congregants, colleagues, if they need your help. Lend them your high speed internet if they need help finding documents. Give/lend them money to obtain said documents. Drive them to and from the DMV and the polls. Vote.
22Amen. Someone I’ve known all my life was bragging the otherday about a teenage boy wearing a cross. Now I don’t care if people wear crosses although I was told as a child of Christians not to wear a cross. The boy went to the checkout counter where he was shopping. The Muslim wearing a hijab told him to take off the cross; it offended her. He refused. The manager said look, just take off the cross…. but the kid wouldn’t. Instead, he left his cart at the counter and walked out of the store, as did others in line. My old friend said may we have courage to stand up for our religious freedom in the future. Of course I had to say that love is the most important thing we can do in those situations. It’s gonna take a lot of chutzpah to love those who are different. Oh, and that happened in Louie Gohmert’s district. We have lots of juggling ahead. and voting.
