There Are Sore Losers, And Then There’s The GOP
The brain trust that is the Republican Party is suing…that’s right, the Republican Party.
You’re kidding me, right?
Apparently the GOP is so butt hurt over John McCain getting beaten like a rented mule last Tuesday that they’re suing to change the campaign finance laws he wrote with Russ Feingold six years ago.
“Under that law, the national parties can only raise money under federal fundraising restrictions. The law banned the national parties from raising so-called soft-money _ that is, unlimited amounts of money from corporations, unions or individuals. If the national parties can raise money for state parties or for state candidates, they would adjust that fundraising to state limits, some of which are far more lenient than federal law.”
So, lemme get this straight, Barack Obama, through 3.2 million donors raised a metric ass ton of money, so the logical step is to punish John McCain for losing and sue to raise more money for the RNC. Make sense? It’s a last ditch effort on the GOP’s behalf to take advantage of the Bush-friendly Supreme Court Justices before the incoming Obama Administration.
Now, I told you that story just to set the tone for this one. You may have heard that Obama wants a civilian army to carry out his Marxist demands, you know, like the Browshirts did in Nazi Germany. Of course that makes sense, because a handful of Republican fruit bats are screaming it, and Conservative Politics Today reports it, so it must be true.
I don’t know if your familiar with AmeriCorps or not, but you should check them out if you want some background. They currently offer 75,000 opportunities to help with local and national non-profits throughout the country. Back in July, Barack Obama said he wanted to expand AmeriCorps to 250,000, and expand the Peace Corps as well. Through this voluntary, that’s right, voluntary program, you could get discounted tuition after the completion of your public service. That’s it. No civilian army marching in the streets, no one coming to your home and taking your wife to “spread the milf around”, your beloved 1997 Saturn will not be annexed for the Proletariat.
The scare tactics the Right is implementing are laughable, but we know all too well that there are people (read: fucking stupid people) who believe this crap, and get more worked up than an underage band geek at an all nude strip club. Should you encounter one of these crazies, either here on Today.com or elsewhere, the best thing you can do is laugh in their faces. I mean it, let it come from your belly: Bwahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Over and over until they feel as marginalized as their damn party has become.
Great post. Although, being from Canada, I have to admit, I’ve never heard of an “ass ton” of money, and we use the metric system

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!
The problem with the Repubs is that they were a party of rich people, until the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Then Democratic President Lyndon B. Johnson said when he signed it “I just gave away the south”, and he was right.
The Repubs didn’t now what to do with a bunch of redneck racists. They still don’t. They went from being the greedy bastard party to the family values party to keep their base. Of course, being rich bastards, they didn’t have a clue how to do that.
They just keep screwing things up, because they not only don’t understand their base, they don’t give a shit about them except how they can use them to make themselves richer.
Ha! “Spread the milf around.” You’re bad. In a good way.
What? Conservatives using politics of fear to enrage ignorant people with misinformation?
I don’t believe it, its just not like them.
