Yes, Mitch, I Am in Fact Rolling My Eyes
Mitch McConnell is a pitiful excuse for a human being.
First he and his grubby little buddies meet up and giggle themselves silly about a woman’s tale of overcoming depression. They think it’s hysterical that she looks deeply into her life and makes decision based on thought. They point and they laugh and they berate a woman – which, by the way, passes for foreplay in Republican circles – and hold themselves out as being the paragon of Christian virtue.
And who is the victim here?
Why, the bullies, of course.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) on Tuesday accused “the political left in America” of engaging in “Nixonian” political tactics, reacting to the publication of an audio tape of a McConnell re-election strategy session.
Mother Jones magazine published an article Tuesday based on the tape, in which campaign aides discussed how to attack potential rival Ashley Judd.
I don’t know if McConnell should be stirring up the ghost of Richard Nixon, Honey. I guess his next statement will be, “I am not a jerk.”
Okay, everybody!, stand up wherever you are and point at the above picture of Mitch McConnell and laugh at his silly butt. He’s earned it.
Mother Jones strikes again! Mitch is using this as leverage to boost his fundraising efforts and as an end run around attacks from the even crazier far right members of his own party, (I know this begs the question how is it possible to be crazier than Mitch – see Cruze, Ted). He can now crusade amongst his own saying, “Look, I’m one of you! The liberal media hates me.” You must remember that in Mitch’s world this is not just a badge of honor, it is a fund raiser.
He is crazy like a fox (network reference intended), and my bet is that, righteous indignation aside, a member of his own staff leaked this for him. Nixonian indeed!
1I saw one comment – I think on the Maddow Blog – that 2 of his staffers that rolled out the information on Ashley Judd are full time government employees. So the question is – Did they do this research on the tax payers dime?
2Just looking at his ugly face is quite enough to make me laugh! I have a good imagination, but don’t even want to even think about how ugly his silly butt is.
It was funny he brought up Nixon, the person he most reminds me of. Did you notice how he wouldn’t answer the reporter’s question? He just kept repeating his canned comment about how his wife was attacked.
3June, this begs the question, doe Mitch’s wife have a cloth coat?
4Does not doe. I’m getting coffee now and staying away from keyboards!
5Republicans dishing dirt on Republicans….. it just isn’t done…
Except if it puts money in somebody’s war chest.
Can anybody say “Hatch Act”?
6Oh June! No thanks for That image!
7I hope Momma gives you a smack for bringing it up!
So the gist of McConnell’s complaint is those darn liberals have now fallen to the level of Republicans?
Actually, as soon as I read this, I thought of Karl Rove in the 1986 Texas Governor’s race working for Clements, when he claimed his office was bugged by Democrats, but the battery was so small that it hard to be recharged every couple of hours (kind of like Karl’s self-esteem) and so the FBI chuckled, patted him on the back, and left.
Mitch, the calls are coming from INSIDE THE HOUSE!
8Ya’d think the idiot would have learned to be careful what he says – especially behind closed doors – after the Mitt Romney recording.
Attention greedy manipulative politicians: It is 2013. We are the 47%. We have the technology and we know how to use it.
Good Grief.
9Maybe a Tea Party activist looking at a twofer? Eliminate Ashley Judd and hurt Mitch McConnell? (Assuming that Mitch’s own staff didn’t leak this on his personal orders, as noted above. Being condemned by (gasp) LIBERALS is probably worth a few percentage points, as is frightening off potential opponents with a vision of just how low Mitch (LimboMaster) McConnell is willing to go.
10If the tape really was supplied to Mother Jones by Itchy’s campaign staff then it is probably a disinformation campaign — you know where they tell the truth and then find a way to discredit the source which makes people think that it’s a lie.
11@Deb – Mitch’s wife may not have a cloth coat but I’ll bet she has a cloth bag to throw over his head when they have sex.
12I did a web search (ok, googled), using the search terms “b@@tard mcconnell” and he came right up. The search engine bypassed any dictionary references for the word b@@tard, and went straight to mitch mcconnell. Even the google knows.
13It shames me to admit that this ugly sapsucker is my elected Senator. (Rand Paul is the other one, God help us all) You can take my word for it when I tell you that ole Mitch isn’t exactly well thought of in these parts. The only thing that saves him is having an R next to his name…this is a red state after all. I had high hopes for Ashley Judd giving him a good thumpin’, but that’s not gonna happen. Let’s hope our team can come up with a good candidate to run against him. They probably won’t win, but at least he/she could scare the ugly old fart. (sorry Momma)
14If Mitch McConnell had a secret meeting to help orphans and homeless people, and Mother Jones revealed details of his plan, he wouldn’t be complaining. It’s not the messenger Mitch, it’s your message that’s the problem.
15Ol’ Mitch is P.O.ed because now he doesn’t get to use all the dirt he thinks he had on Ashley Judd: depression and religion. Republican gold, pure gold.
16How that ol’ ugly specimen ever got into the position he is in, is just beyond me. Whatever is worse than pathetic, would be appropriate.
17@Deb, I don’t know about the cloth coat, but I think one would be safe assuming that she does not see well.
18Joy, oh endless joy! Haven’t these R’s ever heard of a “butt call”? Thats when a guy puts his cell phone in his back pocket and then forgetfully sits down on just enough of it to send a message! (Awright, now! Get that odoriferous image out of your head right now! Not that kind of a butt call!) It never ceases to amaze me how many people do not know that a cell phone can forward calls and even record stuff, especially if you do not really know how to use all the apps. Think of it this way: cell phone records, message is accidentally sent to someone who should never receive it, message is then forwarded to Mother Jones. Talk about a party line! Party line! Get it???
