Was Flaming Bag Of Poo Responsible For Burning Of Texas Governor’s Mansion?

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

This is not good for Democracy.This weekend, two very exciting things happened in Austin, Texas. Pinko communist Democrats held their state convention, and the governor’s mansion burned into a tragic, crispy crust. Could the two events be related? Let’s examine the “evidence” behind one possible explanation for the calamity: a drunken visiting Democrat left a burning bag of human feces on the (Republican) governor’s doorstep, never guessing the historic building was one vast, uninhabited fire hazard in search of a flame.

Texas Governor Endorses 9/11-Fucker

Wednesday, October 17th, 2007

he means rick perry or somethingTexas Gov. Rick Perry has thrown his massive geopolitical heft behind Rudy Giuliani for the upcoming student council elections. He did so in spite of strong, Jesusy reservations about Giuliani’s eternal penchant for killing babies. He used this metaphor, however, to prove to himself that abortion isn’t the only issue in the campaign: “When I go to buy a pickup truck, if it has one option on it that I’m not fond of, it doesn’t mean I disregard that pickup truck.” Oh, I get it! The Democrats and maybe Ron Paul would disregard that pickup truck and/or leave dead babies stuffed in the engine.

Miers as Yellow Dog Democrat (Emphasis on Yellow)

Monday, October 3rd, 2005

Harriet Miers may have contributed to Democratic campaigns, but that’s hardly something to be ashamed of. Some of our best Republicans are former Democrats, Texas Governor Rick Perry, who happened to be Texas state chair Gore’s 1998 presidential campaign when Miers gave it $1000 back in 1988. Perry said he became a Republican “because I learned that the Democratic Party could not be trusted to run the state of Texas, much less the United States.” We can respect someone changing his mind, but in explaining Miers’s flirtation with Democrats, her allies aren’t arguing she changed her mind; they’re saying she didn’t have one. At today’s WH briefing, Scott McClellan explained that everyone in Texas was a Democrat back in the 80s. To which we reply: Good thing they weren’t jumping off bridges! And Miers’s ex, Nathan Hecht, says that “If she did it, it was because the [law] firm made her do it.” Good thing they weren’t laundering money for the mob! MORE »
