My Damn Congressvarmint
Pete Olsen, my personal congressman, is a dolt. Seriously. A complete dolt. He’s Louie Gohmert crazy but just smart enough to know to keep his mouth shut. He took Tom DeLay’s place and saw the folly of foolishness.
But that’s all the smart he is. He’s not even one IQ point above shuddup.
But sometimes he forgets.
One of his little minions in my county goes around saying, “Democrats put up the confederate flag and Republicans took it down.”
I don’t even know where to start.
Thanks to Austin Hat Lady for the heads up.
Sometimes crazy deserves a crazy response inasmuch as it is useless to go factual with them. As for the minion with the bassackward history on the battle flag, would this work? “Did you enjoy all the applesauce from the last big rain?”
1I’ll see your Pete Olsen and raise you our John Shimkus who boasted to a local university Political Science class that not only did he not believe in climate change, he also did not believe in climate. Does the brain rot set in before the congressional run, or is there a seriously contagious stupid virus running amok in the halls of Congress?
2Interesting how any progressive success becomes a Republican victory. After all the work is done, of course.
3Yeah – so why did republicans keep it up on that flag pole for the last 60 years? why were the only people fighting to keep it up there ALL REPUBLICANS? do they ever listen to the crud they say?
4@Hollyanna: he doesn’t believe in climate.
I got nothin’.
Does he believe in air? Because if not, we can get rid of him pretty quick.
The stupid virus isn’t confined to the halls of Congress, because a lot of voters (and non-voters) suffer from it.
Yes, the Democrats were once the party of segregation. And Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, was a strong supporter of conservation and National Parks. How’s that trending with the GOP these days?
5there should be a law against stupid.
6As a Proud Philadelphia Born Yankee, I volunteer to explain to Pete ‘I Have Never Taken A History Class’ Olsen what UNION flag looks like.
Here’s a tip: It looked very much like the same AMERICAN flag that flies today. It only shifted the placement of the stars as more states entered the UNION.
Time to require all candidates, for any elected or appointed office, to take, pass, and post grades publicly, a US History and Civics test.
Good Grief these people are stoopid. How do they find their way out of bed in the morning?
7Yellowdoggranny: We don’t need more laws. We need science to come up with a way to make stupid really hurt!
8Scratching my head….
