On the Health Care Debate in the Senate and Facebook and New Moon and Sam Brownback's Mom

Coburn Douchebag

It's Saturday, and Honey took the baby on an adventure (grandparents), and I'm all alone. So many great things I've been waiting to do. So yea... I'm watching C-Span on the computer. Every once in a while I even yell, "YOU LIE," now that it's the Republicans' turn to speak. I don't want to generalize here, but Republicans have great hair! Maybe when the GOP becomes completely irrelevant, they can become extras on The Love Boat remake.

This guy, John Cornyn from Texas, just said health care reform would create Gulags. I love Republicans. Such drama queens.

Earlier, Sam Brownback said the abortion provisions in the Senate Bill don't meet the moral criteria. So I used my other-other-other Twitter account to say, "Brownback, your mama doesn't meet the moral criteria." See? Sometimes 140 characters are more than enough.

I started a Facebook page for the other-other blog. Come and say Hi.

I wish Facebook didn't use words like Friends and Fans. These are big words. For you to join my Facebook page, you have to become Fans. That's silly. Couldn't they just use "Members"?

So I'm writing these words even though I know you're not there. You're either standing in line to get an autographed Going Rogue, or in line for New Moon.

I talked to this writer-guy on Thursday, and I asked him for his informed opinion: Am I allowed to make fun of Twilight fans even though I haven't read the books and while enjoying True Blood? He said Twilight was a horribly written romance novel with vampires. In other words, YES!

My wife, a otherwise sane woman with excellent taste, has become addicted to twilight.

Like you I have decided to judge it without reading it. I think It's safer that way (what if I like it too?)

SJ said...

You want more members?

Jeaux said...

The GOP vampires aren't as good looking... except for the hair.

My computer hated it when I tried to click on the facebook picture! Our school librarian said the twilight stuff wasn't well written, so that's good enough judgment for me.

"Brownback, your mama doesn't meet the moral criteria." <---- Bwa-HAHAHAHA!!!!! ohmygod I love that!

And yeah, I read the first Twilight book and stopped. How many people can say THAT?

A Free Man said...

Twilight fans are bored Republican housewives, so you absolutely can make fun of them. And Sam Brownback and Sarah Palin. All in one sentence if you're good.

Dan, actually, your wife counts on you to save her. Tonight, when she sleeps, cover her in garlic. When she wakes up, tell her the power of Christ compels her. She might complain a bit, but that's simply the demons leaving her body. She'll thank you in the end.

SJ, hmmm... I mean... sure, why not? But only if you're interested.

Jeaux, the hair won't help them in the Lake of Fire.

Jill, try again! Actually, I don't know what's going on with the link. It works for me... Sorry... Try again! Now!

NGIP, it's funny because it's true! Mrs. Brownback is a floozy! Actually she might be dead (or a living decent human being), so I might take it back. I'll sleep on it. (<== That's what Mrs. Brownback said)

Freeman, to be fair, the Twilighters can't be worse than Harry Potter nerds.

Actually I want to see Precious but it won't be showing here in my redneck part of Cali. Fuckers..


As for the liars known as the Republican Party..they can all get on a slow boat to hell as far as I am concerned. I watched the House and the Senate bullshittery and hoped to hell I wouldn't stroke out when those jackasses got up and lied their ever-lovin asses off.

Hope you had a great turkey day. ;)

I wish Sarah Palin were stopping by Phoenix. I would totally wait 10 hours in line to get her autographed book.

As far as I'm concerned, all politicians are liars, in this screwed up system they need to promise their constituencies millions in bacon and pork projects regardless of the worthiness of the projects. If the politician doesn't play ball like this and deliver, he will get replaced by a politician who does. The system needs to be fixed in my opinion.

fun palin link for you:

Dusty, wait, Precious? Is that some kind of Twilight lingo? And as for the Republicans, my dad asked me, "Do you really think all Republican politicians take bribes from insurance companies?" The answer is No. Some of them realized the voters got duped by insurance company lies, so now to get reelected they feel they have to vote against their voters' interests.

And I hope you had a good turkey day too. I had a good one, but in my case it's all about my Honey's veggie stuffing.

Sebastien, it must be fun to stand in a Palin line, mainly because of the good conversation you can have with other people about FREEDOM and the CONSTITUTION and about CZARS. And true, all politicians lie, but it'll take more than Obama finding a middle ground for me to forget how horrible Bush and his Republican Yes Men had been.

And I didn't realize the book was unreadable too... Isn't she supposed to be the great populist? Who is she trying to be, Henry Thoreau?

Sebastien said...

She is, like, so much better than Thoreau yo. Because she has a sniper rifle. Thoreau didn't. Therefore he sucks.

People in the Sun said...

In her defense, I think Thoreau had the same ghost-writer.
