GOVERNOR BIMBO

South Carolina Governor, Nikki Haley, the hyprocritcal shrew who unfairly attacked President Obama in her slimy State of the Union rebuttal has proven just what an ignorant bitch she is. First of all she was offended by Trump's comments about George Bush not keeping us safe. She feels it is not appropriate to criticize a president unless she's doing the criticizing. Actually is very appropriate if that ex-president is also a liar and war criminal responsible for the deaths of thousands. Then to prove how truly clueless she is, she endorsed Marco Rubio a pissant of a senator who has accomplished nothing but being charged with plagiarism, lying about his parents' arrival in Miami, and a highly suspicious late night arrest in a Miami park.

It's already begun.

One can assume that the death of Justice Scalia will have some conspiracy theorists assuming it had to be murder. I mean why would a 79 year old man  who ate like a pig and was incredibly overweight die of natural causes?  It doesn't make sense. As soon as Donald Trump heard there was a pillow near Scalia's head,  he had visions of the killer suffocating the jumbo justice. Others quick to imply foul play
the always-suspicious Michael Savage and radio show host Alex Jones (the nut shown above) whose only role in life is to create conspiracy theories.  Jones has suggested that it's possible that somebody put something in Scalia's drink to trigger a heart attack (Bill Cosby?) and that this huge Obama-inspired plot could result in the deaths of other victims like Donald Trump and Clarence Thomas. Hmm. Kind of makes you wish there were some truth in these ridiculous theories.

A likely story.

I don't know who Stephen Harrison is but an article I read by him today seems incredibly unlikely. He claims that when he was a junior at Washington University in St. Louis, he had the opportunity to be a member of a private dinner (for 13) with Justice Antonin Scalia. During that dinner, which took place just before the end of George's reign of terror, he claims he asked Scalia what he thought of the Bushes. Scalia allegedly said he had the greatest respect for the family, but that many of his associates felt that the wrong Bush was elected president, bringing up again the myth that Jeb is the smarter brother. As much as I detest Scalia, I think it's highly unlikely—his being so opinionated—that he would repeat the opinions of others. And I think it's even more unlikely that he would suggest that a ninny like Jeb Bush would have been any more effective as president than his clueless brother. One wonders if Mr. Harrison has a faulty memory or is trying to get a plug in for the struggling Jeb Bush with a flattering quote by a dead man who can't deny he said it. Also he referred to Scalia's comment as a secret. I don't see how it could be a secret if there were 12 other students around the table.

Do religions really give a damn?

Pushing the nonexistent.

As an atheist, I can't consider any of these Republicans fit for office. Not when they proclaim that their allegiance is to Jesus Christ, a mortal who died centuries ago. Or worse to a god no more real than Santa Claus. How could I put my trust in any person who put his trust in an unproven, fanciful, magical creature based on an ancient book in which the authors didn't even know basic science or geography. How could I trust a man to work with world leaders when he can't even reason out that religions were created in the distant past when people were ignorant of almost everything and needed something to keep them in line and make their keepers wealthy. Christians can't even reason out that Christ told them to be kind, generous, and share their wealth and their bread with less fortunate people. So they go to huge, costly churches where the preachers live like kings, or Catholic churches where there is an obscene display of wealth. They can't even understand the tenets of their own religions.  Religion is an outdated product but most people refuse to accept its obsolescence. Most obviously these wacko Republican candidates who are total fools or complete liars when they proclaim their unfounded piety.

GIVE IT A REST.

There's too much unnecessary apologizing in the world today. Or maybe it's just in super-sensitive, politically correct America. The latest forced apology is from Madeleine Albright who, while campaigning for Hillary Clinton said, "There's a special place in hell for women who don't help each other." A perfectly acceptable statement and sentiment. Who is actually offended by this amusing comment? Do the offended parties feel they have been condemned to the fires of hell by Ms. Albright? Or was anybody offended at all, or is this another media trick to fill space and create a nonexistent problem?  Whatever happened to free speech?

Donald Trump, shame on you.

Talk about overreaction! This outrage about Trump calling Cruz a pussy is much ado about nothing. Yes, the word pussy is often used in a vulgar way. It is and has also always been used to mean weak and wimpy as well as to describe a pet cat.  But the news apparently never heard of any other definitions. On NBC they just expressed their disdain for this terrible, horrible word that they said they can't even say on TV. That's odd because every Saturday on PBS Mrs. Slocombe on Are You Being Served makes hilarious double-entendres about her pussy, and that joke has been going on since 1972.  But then England and most of Europe are not as uptight as Americans are with anything sexual. (Why can't we be uptight about scatology, America's favorite subject?).
