The violent rightwing nutters have to be stopped..curbstomping women is never justified

Timmy 'the thug' Profitt with his man Rand

After MoveOn's Lauren Valle's head was stomped into a curb by a member of Rand Pauls' team..I mean, thug, things have gotten to the end of the line as far as I am concerned. A rightwinger named Silverfiddle likes to comment on my blog when I post something negative about the batshit crazies known to us as Teabaggers.

He had the nads to post this quote on the post below this one...I quote him:

Thuggery begets thuggery... 

He gives nothing to support his comment, but as far as his rightwing nutter-ass is concerned, this type of behavior is evidently justified..in any situation.

It's not...not by any group or individual. It's disgusting, it's ignorant and as far as I am concerned, its against the law as it's an attack without provocation, because the individual, Tim Profitt, who stomped Lauren's head and neck, is a truck load of pond scum who has zero credibility as an intelligent, thinking, rational human being.

Rand Paul originally loved this jackhole,as he listed his dumb ass as a wonderful, magnanimous supporter, ole Timmy had given him roughly 1500 bucks, per Lawrence O'Donnells show....before he moved far far away from this bag of batshit and dumped his disgusting ass after he curbstomped a small, unarmed female exercising her right to free speech. From the FDL piece linked above:

The Paul campaign has disassociated with Profitt, who was the campaign’s Bourbon County coordinator. But before they did, in today’s Lexington Herald-Leader, the Paul campaign ran a full-page ad touting Profitt’s support:Profitt’s name appears at the bottom of the ad.

If this doesn't show the voters of KY wtf they will get if they elect Rand Paul...then they are so far gone over the edge, it is fucking hopeless. They are nothing more than ignorant, uneducated assholes who care nothing about the constitution or the bill of rights....merely getting a white male-led government again...ala George W. Bush.

I am happy to report this bag of sheep shit has been ordered to appear in court after Lauren was released from the hospital with a concussion. The sumbitch actually is defending his actions by blaming the 'camera angle', that he was concerned for Rand Paul's safety and (I love this one) the cops should of intervened. From the Chron  link above:

Lexington Division of Police spokeswoman Sherelle Roberts said Tuesday that officers will deliver a summons to Profitt to appear in court. A judge will determine whether to proceed with an assault case.

Profitt said the fight never would have occurred if police officers had intervened earlier.

"A friend of mine went up to three policeman before Rand got there, and told them about the girl who was standing there with that wig on and that she was getting ready to do something," Profitt said. "The policemen looked at him and said that's not our job."

 Oh yeah...a small female holding nothing but a cardboard sign was going to harm Rand Paul. Give me an effin break you American Terrorist. You fucking bully. You are a disgusting piece of human excrement Tim Profitt and I hope to hell you have charges to face in court...although considering the venue, I highly doubt it. The fight? You stupid fuck, there was no fight, she simply tried to protect herself from you stupid bastards..nothing more.

UPDATE: Lisa Graas, a KY blogger has Id'd the second asshole that went after Lauren.  His name is Mike Pezzano. Another douche nozzle who hopefully gets a summons to appear in court on this attack as well.

Bachmann pushes the corporate line to voters.

I know..this isn't news, but for the love of Buddha..wtf is this bitch pushing? Watch the video below and then tell me what you think she is selling.

Watch the video here on my video page.

Courtesy of The Ed Show. Michelle evidently loves the shit out of the corporatocracy. She tries to spin it, but she is such a lousy speaker, she hurts her cause.

Which makes me smile. Bachmann the batshit crazy neocon. Do they cringe whenever she grabs a microphone? I would hope so..

What do you mean it's not monday?

It's Tuesday, I know..but it feels like a Monday.

The Big O indoctrinates the kiddies today! Oh goodie! Whilst all the ringwing nutters in the country are screaming that our socialist Pres is trying to recruit for his Hitler Youth group, the Christian Science Monitor calls his speech..

Bland.

That's right, its fucking bland. The CSM says this:

To succeed in school and in life, you should:

a. work hard

b. set goals for yourself

c. take responsibility for your own actions

d. all of the above

The correct answer is "d," of course. But every American kid knows that already.

And that's the real problem with the president's message, which will be broadcast live on the White House website and on C-SPAN: It's bland, neutral, and mind-numbingly obvious. You can't even imagine a cogent objection to it.

Of course, that hasn't stopped GOP firebrands from trying. In the blogosphere, especially, Republicans have charged that Mr. Obama's speech will indoctrinate students with his supposedly "socialist" views. Across the country, parents have demanded that schools obtain their permission before showing Obama's speech to their children; others have announced that they will simply keep their kids home today.

But there's nothing socialist – or even partisan – about Obama's speech. If you think otherwise, go online and read the text of the speech or the White House's suggested classroom activities to accompany it. One exercise asks children to make a poster of their goals; another instructs each student to "brainstorm" about what qualities promote personal success. Not a word about Obama's positions on healthcare, taxes, or anything else.

Shit, no socialism? No partisanship? WTF Obama???? You are missing a grand opportunity Mr. President. sigh...

Yet the nutters are foaming at the mouth. Thank the fucking media for all that publicity you freaks. If it wasn't for the media..you assholes would be relegated to the circular file on this topic.

Which is where all you fuckwits belong. The speech will be on Cspan at high noon.

In other news..of the nutter variety..Alternet has a good read up. The title?

10 of the Most Obscenely Stupid Right-Wing Conspiracy Theories and Attacks Against the President.

Great title, piqued my interest don't ya know? The following one really set me howling:

Obama's Nefarious Plan for the Nation's Genitals

When news leaked of a CDC report recommending that boys be circumcised as a preventative measure against HIV infection, right-winger conspiracy theorists began to fret that the federal government would mandate circumcision.

Since Patrick Henry isn’t around, it was up to Rush Limbaugh to sound the rallying cry against tyranny: "Leave our penises alone, too, Obama!" roared Limbaugh in a July 24 radio broadcast.

The next day, while discussing an unrelated dispute with Jay-Z, the talk show host said, "I would remind the rapper Jay Z; Mr. Z, it is President Obama who wants mandated circumcision. We had that yesterday. That means if we need to save our penises from anybody, it's Obama."

Needless to say, Obama had nothing to do with the CDC report, and doesn't appear to have ever publicly uttered the word "circumcision." Nor did he recommend the CDC promote circumcision.

None of this, of course, discouraged Limbaugh from running with the best metaphor for white male anxiety about a loss of power and masculinity in the age of Obama, ever.

Good lord, help those that can't keep themselves from being idiots of the highest order..please. They are embarassing us around the world. They are making us all look like loonies. Please lord get these assholes to a shrink..or just take them 'home' with you ok?

Thanks! ;)

Nutter punches 65 year old healthcare reform supporter.

If this doesn't tell you what ignorant bags of batshit are on the anti-healthcare reform bandwagon...I don't know what the hell will. From the RawStory link:

A 65-year-old man cheering healthcare reform in Miami was punched in the face and knocked to the ground by an opponent of a public health plan, according to a reporter at the scene. The rally took place outside a Great Miami Chamber of Commerce event where Florida Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL - below right) was speaking.

"Luis Perrero of Coral Gables was standing among about 40 Democratic activists and union workers when a man in a Ford pick-up truck pulled up to the rally at Jungle Island and began arguing with the crowd," the Herald's Tolouse Oloronippa blogged Wednesday. "The man, who only gave his first name as Raul, said Perrero called him a Spanish curse word. He punched Perrero in the face. Perrero fell to the ground and lay motionless for a few minutes."

Sweet-friggin-Jaysus-in-a-speedo..wtf? Punching out an old man for crying out loud? Way to go, you worthless asshole!

The extreme nutters are coming out of the woodwork over the healthcare debate. We can blame Chuck the fuck Grassley and just about every other Rethug or Blue Dog for this violent bullshit.

They are feeding it, and the 'rightwing terrorists' are doing their part evidently. The 65 yo victim had this to say:

"I'm amazed the way this has become such a politicized issue,'' Perrero said, while still sitting on the ground but sitting up. "It shows that people who are against the public option will resort to anything, including battery on a senior citizen to prevent healthcare reform.''

Sadly, I am not amazed. I expect it to get much worse. The Big O however will speak to the idiots in Congress Sept 9th. Can't wait for this newest bullshit session. What do you want to bet he drops the Public Option? Any takers on that bet?

WAIT!!!! There is more. From C&L this video of the nutters shouting down a woman in a wheelchair at another townhall. Disgusting morons really take the cake.

Can there be any room for a centrist at a health care reform town hall meeting

They are marginalized, therefore they are bitter.

Reading MSNBC’s First Read this morning, I was struck right between the eyes by one section regarding the rightwing nutters coming out of the woodwork and why:

They were irritated with the direction of the country after the 2008 election, with a man as president they didn’t vote for, and with a Congress ruled by Democrats. They were angry with being out of power and having — because of being in the minority — what they felt was no say.

That, m’dear reader, is the crux of the problem. They are just pissed the fuck off that they LOST control of the government.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..fuck all you rightwing nutters..twice even. Suck it up and deal with it, like we had to do for eight-long-fucking-years under the Bush cartel.

Perhaps they all aren’t astroturfer’s after all. They are just highly pissed off that they are marginalized and have no real say anymore. All their representatives were either voted out or hanging onto districts thick with rightwing nutters when the majority of the state voted blue in 2006 and ‘08. So, like spoiled children all they can do is make a scene and scream at the top of their lungs. Again, from First Read:

But there was no indication that these folks were so-called “Astroturf” grassroots supporters. There were many who were affiliated with the tea parties and even LaRouchies likening Obama to Hitler. One LaRouche organizer said he was there to “cause some trouble.”

*snip*

They are the true believers. They were also big-time Fox News viewers and Glenn Beck disciples, hammering home the perception that this is where these people get their news, er, information. One mother-daughter combo — unprompted — enthusiastically boasted, “Fox rules!” “It’s all we ever watch!”

These fuckwits will not go away quietly, they are going to raise holy hell every chance they get. Because, that is all they have…acting like a 3 year old in the grocery store that didn’t get his way. They will be constantly whipped up by the likes of Limbaugh, Dick Armey and their ilk.

So we need to fight fire with a gigantic money-laden firehose. From Politico:

A new coalition on Thursday launched $12 million in television ads to support President Barack Obama’s health reform plan, in the opening wave of a planned tens of millions of dollars this fall.

The new group, funded largely by the pharmaceutical industry, is called Americans for Stable Quality Care. It includes some odd bedfellows: the American Medical Association, FamiliesUSA, the Federation of American Hospitals, PhRMA and SEIU, the service employees’ union.

The decision of labor and progressive groups to join with industry groups could draw new heat about the president’s package from the left.

The ads began airing at about 11 a.m. ET Thursday.

At this point..I don’t give a shit who does it, I just want the nutters exposed and then marginalized once again. They lost, they are now the minority and as such get nothing but a lump of coal in their stockings. From Politico again:

The official provides a little more back story: “These groups were part of a looser coalition that started back in January that focused on the links between health reform and the economy. Now that the debate is turning on what health reform means for the individual, they felt the need to launch a new front that addresses some of those particulars while debunking some of the myths that are floating around. Plus, these groups recognize that their collective voice packs more punch than if they were to just speak out individually.”

As long as they have money and connections..go for it..slap the shit out of the reichwing jackasses..you have my permission.

The militia nutters are back in force.

At least according to Alternet they are:

A couple of months ago, a newly formed militia reared its head in a familiar place -- the Panhandle of Northern Idaho. Sisyphus at 43rd State Blues had a full description:

Sporting a photoshopped image of the Statue of Liberty with the torch replaced by an assault rifle, as well as displaying the flag from the "Republic of Idaho", another newly formed Idaho militia crawls out from the wilderness to register their displeasure with the status quo yet offering no solutions other than vague grade school platitudes and a thinly veiled threat of revolution. As is their wont they invoke the civil war cry of state sovereignty. ...

The General applied to be a sniper with them, and got a positive response. Kewl!

But it's not just northern Idaho.

It's occurring across a broad swath of the Northwest, mostly in rural precincts, as a Missoulian story recently explored:

“It's the old Freemen days,” Anderson said. “That's what we're seeing here again. And it's not just Lincoln County.”

Lincoln County Detective Capt. Jim Sweet agrees that “there's an uprising of anti-government groups that's definitely connected to the election of the Obama administration.”

Law enforcement agencies throughout the multi-state region, Sweet said, are “talking about the patterns. It's obviously bigger than Lincoln County.”

People are afraid of losing gun rights, he said, and they're stockpiling weapons and ammunition, and they want a sheriff who will stand up to federal agents.

“It's a power thing,” Anderson said. “They want the power to buck the fed and federal gun laws.”

Anderson said he traveled recently to Kalispell for an “intelligence meeting” with several federal, state and local jurisdictions - including the FBI, county sheriffs and city police - to discuss “this radical response to Obama's election, and to make sure we all know what's going on.”

Obama never said anything about taking guns from lawful citizens..never! These fucking nutters are just pissed that a black man leads our nation.

Why is this ok? Its criminal for the love of christ.

This was sent to me by Betmo this afternoon. I damn near choked on my water whilst reading it and watching the accompanying video. I will put the video up on my own server later so as not to worry about YouTube taking it down again under pressure from Reagan and his goons. The syndicator Radio America states they have no intention of holding Micheal Reagan responsible for calling for his listeners to hunt down Mark Dice, shoot him and Mr. Reagan would personally pay for the bullets. The money quote from Michael Reagan's show is this:

"We ought to find the people who are doing this, take them out and shoot them. Really. You take them out, they are traitors to this country, and shoot them. You have a problem with that? Deal with it. You shoot them. You call them traitors, that’s what they are, and you shoot them dead. I’ll pay for the bullets.” - Michael Reagan, 6-10-08 on his radio show.

He says it more than once btw..It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that this behavior is pure terrorism in nature and criminal by our current legal standards. Profmarcus hits the nail on the violent head when he states:

death threats are death threats, right...? RIGHT...?

You might not believe the 9/11 conspiracy exists, but you have to believe this is criminal behavior by the son of a former President. He is truely one sick sumbitch.

Here is the video and transcript of Reagans show via a wmv file. It also includes, after the Reagan show, Alex Jones who is a wingnut in his own right and who doesn't endear himself to me either most of the time.

This mornings sermon...

On this fine Sunday morning, I present to you a most excellent post at Sirens Chronicles. Its about the hypocrites on the religious extreme right. The Title:

CHEAP GRACE:
THE HYPOCRITICAL AND DESTRUCTIVE NATURE OF THE PSEUDO-CHRISTIAN RIGHT

Its a well-written and researched post. Please check it out.

Nothing more uplifting than an Angry Black Bitch

I get FireDogLake's email of their daily roundup of posts each night. Its a group blog and they post plenty. This one post caught my attention so much..I had to post about their post. Let me start off by saying this issue no longer affects me. But I availed myself of the right to have such a medical procedure once in my life and I thank GOD I was able to get it.

Angry Black Bitch is a wonder to behold. She has reclaimed the word "bitch" for starters...I have done that as well, its a badge of honor for moi, but I digress, this is about Her. Her post is about the governor of her state, Missouri. Its about the bill he signed IN A CHURCH. Seems he was trying to kiss some extremist ass, doing a mea culpa of sorts. He laid out a set of "new rules" for clinics that provide abortions. To put it bluntly my dear reader...

It's turning into a police state in Missouri. That ain't right. That people would support this bill is some scary shit indeed. Its about control over what clinics can do and how they do it. The new bill will cost clinics millions to remodel and hire staff to meet the criteria.

It will also cause some clinics to quit offering a perfectly legal medical procedure..an abortion.

I just hope to hell that there is a decent judge on the bench in Missouri to hear this case. It has to be taken into a court of law because evidently the state of Missouri is being run by Theocratic, bigoted, narrow-minded, assholes who think it's their right to be up in everyone's business when it comes to receiving what is STILL a legal medical procedure. From a Kansas City writeup on the new law; The new law, which will take effect Aug. 28, also bars people affiliated with abortion providers from teaching or supplying materials for sex education courses in public schools, and it allows schools to offer abstinence-only programs. It cements into state statute an existing grant program for centers that encourage women to deliver babies instead of having abortions.--WTF?? It will pay clinics a bonus to talk women out of a legal medical procedure??? I hope Planned Parenthood has the ACLU on speed dial my dear reader..because old Mitch actually brags about screwing with a womans right to Reproductive choice. Look Mitch, you friggin blowhard ass-kissing sumbitch, Roe v Wade doesn't say EVERYONE has to get an abortion...it says women have the right to have one if circumstances in their lives dictate such a procedure.

Stop by ABB's blog and show her some support. Not that she needs it, she is a one woman wrecking crew..and I heart her for that. Do it because she deserves to hear voices of support, not the trolling fuckwits that have been hanging around with nothing better to do that call her out for speaking her well-educated mind and showing the world what a bunch of assholes can do when they get the power to control our lives.

The Gonzo-gone pool starts NOW!

Seems Uncle Al is in some deep caca..he is getting hit from all sides now. First it was the firing of the ‘great 8′ USA’s..then it was the FBI lying about their numbers. Now..we hear that BushCo shut down an investigation by the Justice Departments Office of Professional Responsibility into Bush’s domestic wiretapping without warrants. Uncle Al was going to be investigated during this process and what did the Shrub do to save Uncle Al’s ass?

He denied the investigators security clearances that they needed in order to conduct the investigation. Once he did that..he killed the investigation, thereby saving Uncle Al the embarrassment of being investigated.

Wotta guy!

The link above goes to a National Journal article on the subject of the OPR investigation. After the NJ article broke..there was a letter sent to Uncle Al about his role in this newest of “fresh hells” for the Bush White House by John Conyers.

The National Journal raises the question..did the Shrub know that Uncle Al was going to most likely be investigated when he killed the investigation? Another point is, did Uncle Al know it and thereby advise the Shrub to kill the investigation. A couple of short blurbs from the NJ piece:

Sources familiar with the halted inquiry said that if the probe had been allowed to continue, it would have examined Gonzales’s role in authorizing the eavesdropping program while he was White House counsel, as well as his subsequent oversight of the program as attorney general.

*snip*

Current and former Justice Department officials, as well as experts in legal ethics, question the propriety of Gonzales’s continuing to advise Bush about the investigation after learning that it might examine his own actions. The attorney general, they say, was remiss if he did not disclose that information to the president. But if Gonzales did inform Bush about the possibility and the president responded by stymieing the probe, that would raise even more-serious questions as to whether Bush acted to protect Gonzales, they said.

Oh, my dear reader..it gets curiouser and curiouser doesn’t it?

I say Uncle Al will be gone before the end of the month..place your bets now! But, before you do..make sure to read the National Journal article and the Dear Al letter ok?

Al Gore and the rights smear campaign

Bright and early monday morning, A rightwing think tank in TN, TCPR.. issued a press release that stated Al Gore is a hypocrite, among other things. They put out what is supposed to be his annual energy bill for his house in TN. They did NOT get anything right other than the dollar value of his energy bill.

ThinkProgress released Gore's reponse to this bs here. Let me save you the trouble of clicking the link:

1) Gore’s family has taken numerous steps to reduce the carbon footprint of their private residence, including signing up for 100 percent green power through Green Power Switch, installing solar panels, and using compact fluorescent bulbs and other energy saving technology.

2) Gore has had a consistent position of purchasing carbon offsets to offset the family’s carbon footprint — a concept the right-wing fails to understand. Gore’s office explains:

What Mr. Gore has asked is that every family calculate their carbon footprint and try to reduce it as much as possible. Once they have done so, he then advocates that they purchase offsets, as the Gore’s do, to bring their footprint down to zero.

At least the man reduces his ‘footprint’. I am sure most people do not go to the extreme of purchasing ‘offsets’ to negate their energy usage.

Someone needs to hold the rightwing nutjobs accountable for how many offsets THEY purchase to reduce their energy footprint. I would bet the number is barely above a drop in the proverbial bucket my dear reader. Then we will see who the hypocrites really are.

Big Dick Cheney still delusional and trying to start another war.

On his current "Rehab the American image" tour, Cheney, true to form, has uttered the following at various stops along the way:

At a news conference Saturday, Cheney warned that "all options" are on the table if Iran continues to defy United Nations-led efforts to end Tehran's nuclear ambitions, leaving the door open to military action.

He took a similarly uncompromising stand on Iran, criticizing its defiance of a U.N. deadline for freezing its uranium-enrichment programs. While the White House seeks a peaceful resolution to the problem, he said, he did not rule out military action. Mr. Cheney was more diplomatic, but no less direct, on Friday when he discussed North Korea's pursuit of nuclear weapons and China's rapid modernization of its 2.3 million-strong military forces.

He better be careful when bitching about China..they are funding the war in Iraq..do not bite the hand that feeds your war fix Dicky.

Amanda Marcotte resigns from Edwards campaign

You can read her announcement on her blog, Pandagon here.

"Regardless, it was creating a situation where I felt that every time I coughed, I was risking the Edwards campaign. No matter what you think about the campaign, I signed on to be a supporter and a tireless employee for them, and if I can’t do the job I was hired to do because Bill Donohue doesn’t have anything better to do with his time than harass me, then I won’t do it. I resigned my position today and they accepted. "

Somehow I knew this wasn't over. Fucking rightwing nutjobs are partying tonight.

The rightwing nutjobs are going after Amanda Marcotte and Melissa McEwan

Sumo brought this to my attention this morning. Seems the nutjob Bill Donohue is making a mountain out of a molehill here..and the MSM has picked up on it. Donohue is demanding the Edwards camp fire both the liberal bloggers they hired recently for past posts that bitch-slapped the Catholic rightwingers. The NYT has a nasty hitpiece up about the ladies here..and WaPo evidently is running with the story as well.

Glenn Greenwald has nicely dealt with these smarmy assholes by bringing up the rights skeletons with regard to bloggers they have hired as well. Take for instance John 'flipflop' McCains boy Patrick Hynes. Pat is a real piece of work my dear reader. The word fuckwit comes to mind when I think of Patty-boy.

Mahablog also takes exception to the rightwing nutjobs attacks on our liberal ladies by posting some YouTube videos of that idiot extraordinaire Michelle Malkin and her daddy Bill O'reilly. She also sounds off about this latest smear crusade on Shakes Sister and Pandragon's lady here.

Media Matters has pulled some of Donohues skeletons out of his closet as well.

The right can never do no wrong..and the left never does anything right..if you listen to the rightwing nutjobs..hopefully Edwards campaign won't. Only time will tell.

I will say this..if Edwards fires either of those ladies..I won't be voting for that thin skinned sumbitch.
