Fuck you, "shocked" Repuke spokesvomiters

Last edited Mon Nov 13, 2017, 10:37 PM - Edit history (1)

The news networks, including MSNBC, keep putting on Repuke spokespeople like Schmidt and Steele, and they treat them like they're "reborn" and are finally seeing the light.

Fucking bullshit. These worthless fucks helped to give us the Repuke party hell we're living in now. Just because they bridle at garbage like Donny Dump and Roy Moore doesn't exonerate them. They're still fucking snakes and they're still soulless scumbags. Fuck them all the way to hell.

Couldn’t have said it nearly as well myself.

Of COURSE these pigs created the soulless monster that is the KGOP

Pretty much started a long time ago

Just ask Smedley Butler

Or Joe McGinnis

Or read the Powell memo

They are controlled by corporate evil at the highest levels

Course, both parties are run by corporate bribery, which is why the only way toward political/economic soverignty is to take corporate $ out of the system.

Don’t hold your breath

Steve Schmidt was against dump from the beginning. Both of them and Nicole Wallace are Bushies. All seem to realize the mistake dump is.

I don't mind them at all. I don't agree with them a lot. But I don't mind them.

This is fucking war for our country. I don't give a fuck if it's Susan Collins or Bob Corker, or ROY "EFFING" MOORE!

They need to be defeated.

There are no reasonable Retrumplicans!

Flake, and all the rest, need to be beaten into the ground, and then that ground needs to be salted and covered with sulfur.

Keep this in mind when you start having thoughts about "mythical reasonable Retrumplicans"

They just voted in lock-step on the Judiciary Committee to appoint a blogger, one-time ghosthunter, who has NEVER TRIED A CASE, has been out of Law School for 3 years...and lied on his disclosure form about his wife working in the White House, to a lifetime appointment on the Federal Bench

"Reasonable" people don't do that!

If they have an "R" after their name...they need to be crushed.

And shills for the party that are about to make the single largest transfer of wealth from the poor and middle class to the too 1% in our nations history.

Wake up!!!!

"Reasonable Retrumplicans" are as mythical as Unicorns that crap Rainbow Sherbet. They're as mythical as the Tooth Fairy.

They only exist in our imagination. We imagine that Jeff Flake is "reasonable", but he voted right along with the rest of his Retrumplicans to put that unqualified asshat on the Federal bench for a lifetime.

Here is what should be our mantra and SINGULAR goal until Mitch and Paul are out of power...IF THEY HAVE AN R AFTER THEIR NAME THEY NEED TO BE DESTROYED.

From Senator to Dogcatcher... they need to be DEFEATED

We have one job!!!

Do more than talk about it.

I said it below in another post, but if you are buying their crap, you're basically saying that the only thing wrong with the Retrumplican party is Donnie Short Fingers.

As far as I know, they're still in favor of raising taxes on the middle class to give massive cuts to the 1%

They're still in favor of throwing millions off of their Healthcare.

They're still in favor of gutting our social safety net and Social Security.

They're still in favor of gerrymandering.

Did I miss something, or am I supposed to give them credit for being embarrassed that they have an orange shitgibbon as the leader of their party.

Sorry, that's not enough.

They can grimly condemn Dumpie all they want, but Steele blamed Obama for the Iraq War and Schmidt almost brought us VP Palin.

Schmidt particularly is angry that his party has become so foul, but it started with Nixon and increased exponentially with Ray-gun, Shrub, and finally the anal wart Trump. Is this just dawning on him?

And still he's not stripping the "R" from his name and seems to hope that the Pukes will eventually rehabilitate themselves.

Uh....no.

You know who says The enemy of my enemy is my friend? People who lose elections and have no power to stop a God damned thing.

I'm sick and tired of the Retrumplican "good cop-bad cop" routine. Especially since what they play is "bad cop-worse cop".

We can worry about whether any of them are salvageable AFTER we kick their asses.

My God! Look at what the fuck they are doing to our fucking country!!

I'm all for giving folks the benefit of the doubt if they've fucked up, or fucked me over, BUT a large factor is if there is true remorse

Call me when they've left their party, apologized for what they've fucking done, and start making amends to those they've hurt. They can start with that little wink and nod they gave to the racist birther shit and then move on to apologizing for Benghazi.

There is a shit-ton of stuff they need to address.

I'm not buying the Death Bed conversion, because all it is, is words.

If you buy their shit, you're basically saying that the only thing wrong with the Retrumplican party is Donnie Short Fingers. I ain't buying that.

But really when you get right down to it, these self proclaimed "good old boys" are really just a bunch of uber wealthy, senile, chauvinistic pigs who refuse to change with the times. And they hide behind a fire and brimstone religion which gives them an excuse to be senile, chauvinistic pigs. And that's no way to live a life.

A guy was complaining that Roy Moore was being railroaded by the "libs." I politely told him that he was a pedophile enabler, one who would support someone having sex with kids. He puffed up and got mad, and left the store without his purchase. The cashier thanked me, and I said, you're welcome but it's a sad fact that anyone who supports a pedophile should not have a right to walk in public.
