- “Screw you, poor children!” – Wilson Lucom’s widow Hilda Lucom, after suing to get Lucom’s will and it’s donation of millions of dollars to Panama charities declared void.
- Remember during one of the many marches in DC some teabagger sent out a memo telling people not to go on certain subway routes because of black people? Now an actual black person got killed by one of those routes, and the teabagger is a perfect storm of cheering and smugness.
- In case you missed it, “Not a witch” witch Christine O’Donnell has super-maxi-ultra-secret-supreme top secret access to how China is gonna take over the US.
- The US Chamber of Commerce gets lots of money from overseas entities and is blowing the cash on attack ads against Democratic candidates, meaning Christine O’Donnell might be right…except she’s on the side of the foreign takeoverers!
vSharron Angle tried to get one of her opponents to drop out of the race, even trying to offer him future favors with her DC insider mojo….but remember, she’s an outsiders candidate! CrooksandLiars cleared up the audio.
- National Republican Senatorial Committee wanted “a ‘Hicky’ Blue Collar look” for its ad for the West Virginia senate bashing Governor Joe Manchin. They don’t seem to think too highly of their constituents.
“We are going for a ‘Hicky’ Blue Collar look,” read the casting call for the ad, being aired by the National Republican Senatorial Committee. “These characters are from West Virginia so think coal miner/trucker looks.”
“Clothing Suggestions” included jeans, work boots, flannel shirt, denim shirt, “Dickie’s type jacket with t-shirt underneath,” down-filled vest, “John Deer [sic] hats (not brand new, preferably beat up),” “trucker hats (not brand new, preferably beat up).”
- Banks are breaking into homes, changing the locks, stealing stuff, and you can’t do a damn thing about it. USA! USA! USA!! At least Obama is gonna veto the awful awful bill that somehow got passed in the Senate while the unemployment extensions, public option, tax cuts, climate change legislation, and don’t ask all can’t seem to get voted on.
- Lou Dobbs hates the illegals…unless they’re painting his house!

Drain Clogs – 08-04-2010
If you’ve read The Wrecking Crew by Thomas Frank you will be familiar with the vast direct mail fundraising apparatus the Right has. Now, the modern Web 2.0 version has been operation for years, and Salon has exposed that like before most of the money goes to the firms and not the candidates.
Thousands of grassroots conservative donors around the country who believe they are contributing to the fight to reclaim Congress in the fall have actually poured millions of dollars into a group of political action committees whose primary function appears to be enriching a notorious Washington direct mail fundraising firm, Salon’s review of the groups’ FEC filings shows.
The PACs — Freedom’s Defense Fund, the Black Republican PAC, Veterans for Victory, and the Republican Member Senate Fund — are all based out of post office boxes in Washington and all have a treasurer in common: Scott Mackenzie, a campaign finance consultant at Base Connect, the direct mail firm. Formerly known as BMW Direct, Base Connect has long been controversial for its practice of raising large sums of money for long-shot conservative candidates, who in turn pay Base Connect as much as 80 or 90 percent of the money raised for its services.
This is just the Free Market in action, baby! Also the new Politisink Concerned Americans for an American America Patriot Freedom Eagle PAC is now seeking donations, we promise that we may eventually get around to giving money to a candidate.
Speaking of Right Wing nuts, the Washington Post has a neat article up about how Colonial Williamsburg has become sort of a Mecca for Wingnuts wanting to hear the founding fathers give rousing speeches. The Founding Fathers are played by actors, many of which aren’t into the crazy wingnut beat and are shooting down Glenn Beck talking points while in character. It rules.
Women are all about porn, and only church groups can save them!
The Iowa GOP wants to join the ranks of the other crazy state GOP groups, so they’ve decided to support the “original” 13th Amendment solely because they want to try to use it to strip Obama’s citizenship. At least they think Obama is a citizen…
In other citizenship news, Republicans love the Constitution except for every part of it that isn’t the 2nd Amendment. And now they want to toss the 14th Amendment because too many brown babies are being born. Oh, wait, it’s to “fight illegal immigration” aka too many brown babies are being born. The following Senators hate babies: Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Jon Kyl of Arizona, John McCain of Arizona, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, and Chuck Grassley of Iowa.
This stuff is so nuts even Lou Dobbs and Alan Keyes want out.
Prop 8 got overturned! Until the appeal…
but that means we got awesome Right Wing comments!
Please don’t forget the people of Lut who were engagad in the same indecent acts as these gays/lesbian doing in this modern era.
God punished them with 5 sentences :
1) Rain of stones fell on them
2) Upside down the place where this thing had been going
3) Their faces were burnt
4) There was a big voice which torn them down.
5) Gabreil again upside down their place .No nation in the past was given that stern punishment as nation of Lut..
May God give us the righteous path, the path of success in this life & hereafter. Amen.
PEACE TO ALL.
We’re gonna get upside down the place here twice! Oddly enough, this person hid their profile…
Glenn Beck loves the white power…at least his Twitter did until caught!
Glenn Beck’s band of merry morons got a book pulled from a New Jersey library. Please call your local library and get Beck’s books banned. Or not, because we’re better than that.
Did you hear about the prison guard who killed a dude to steal his gun to use to overthrow the US government in the name of Right Wing Freedom? Well, now you have. Raymond Peake and fellow guard Thomas Tuso are in some trouble now, entirely because of the Federal Government is out to get them. And the murder. But mostly that the Federal Government is out to get them.
Apparently this happened when I wasn’t paying attention:
Despite the right saying it was a plant, it turns out it is a right wing dude who claims he didn’t know it was racist. Right.
Cats for Gold is the best site since the last best site!
