Obama, Boehner Keep Fighting Over How Badly Boehner Will Beat Him
Here is what Congress is getting done these days: If Barack Obama wants to use the bathroom, he has to give House Republicans a spending cut they want. If Barack Obama wants to eat dinner with his family, he has to give House Republicans a spending cut they want. If Barack Obama wants to stop them passing a bill declaring white the official skin color of the United States, he has to give House Republicans a spending cut they want. Barack Obama can deliver great speeches about the debt, and he can kill all the Osama bin Ladens he wants, but it doesn't matter. John Boehner will deliver inferior speeches based on glaring, elementary mistruths about the economy and still basically win. So how much is this debt ceiling thing going to cost Obama? [ NYT ]
Osama bin Laden's glamorous head-shot head-shots will be shown to Congress' intelligence and armed services committees. But every member of Congress is still planning on bragging that they've seen them, of course. "We can confirm that we are also the popular kids," members who are not on those committees said. [ CNN ]
Osama bin Laden's kids disagree with the murder of their father. Ugh, aren't the families of murder victims the worst? Pound a beer with us, you pussies! [ NYT ]
Personally, I am going into the Hobo Bean <i>Processing</i> business.
That is, eating them and turning them into poop behind bus stops and convenience store dumpsters.
Profit???
But giving free taxpayer money to subsidize the oil companies is the <i>good</i> kind of welfare! Mostly because it is <i>completely invisible</i> to your average FOX fan and teabagger!
Besides, The Coloreds and The Poors have such a huge head start on being scapegoats. Changing the narrative now is just going to confuse people.
No, stick to the script, buddy. All the problems we have aren&#039;t the piles of free taxpayer money being dumped on top of the oil companies&#039; gigantic money mountains, it&#039;s really entirely all due to the handfuls of dollars that go to the peasanty beggars, trying to get them to simply stop doing those offensive things they always do, like starving to death, or expecting their children to be taught things.
