Looking Good in Bad Times

Post by Knun »

Here's a story about a ASShat (He's only half an ASSHAT) that can't help himself. He's the Gov of NY and they are in the hole for 38.2 BILLION dollars over the next four years.

So what to do when the State your the head of is undoubtedly going down the hole?

Well PARTY of course! You've gotta been seen when your all that...now don't ya!

knun, come on get a life. if we are gonna talk about party boys no one beats the republicans. montana, nevada, florida, south carolina, c street, jim baker, jim swaggert, jim jones and the list goes on and on. the republicans are full of men who cannot accept themself for what they are. its quite pathetic really. in a way i feel bad for the whole lot. i cant imagine how devestating it must feel to hate the core of one owns being. or is it a feeling of superiorty like the c street gang - we are above the morality of mere men - we are the chosen ones and answer to no one! what do you think knun?

No that was obviously not the point. But your getting close.

This is the first time you've been able to use democrat and turkeys in the same sentence. Very good. That's a start.

Yes I agree about Republican turkeys, there's a flock of them out there as well.

But try and figure out the point on your own. HINT: 38.2 billion.

knun, 38 billion is a small figure nowdays, especially when it comes to executive bonuses of failing companies.

it doesn't exite me when either a democrat or republican politicians squanders the public purse. its become the american way. lobbyist control both parties. what dismays me is when the right wing nuts cry about democratic spending and sexual affairs but keep quiet when the republicans do it on an even grander scale. it was bush who drove the country into the ground and i didn't notice any outrage about that from you, so ya a mere 38 billion deficit and a mere multimillion dollar party is peanuts. my main bitch is that i wasn't invited.

Strange viewpoint.

Well LBJ if we bitch enough maybe all of us can make a difference! But you've got to step away from your handlers to be effective.

LBJ,
38 billion dollars is one hell of alot of money. Please don't loose sight of that.

They all do it. Power is something to watch and control. The republicians are much better at culling the ranks than the dems. If you want to get into some type of back and forth on this I've already posted on this. I will not again. You need to pull your head out of the sand and look for yourself.
it was bush who drove the country into the ground and i didn't notice any outrage about that from you
You didn't read my posts then. Bush and the republicans told us they were against growth of government. Yet they spent more on less than anyone previous. That's the only reason they are out. I posted about that on multiple times. You, however, are not capable of saying anything against your handlers. Too bad, if you wake up we can make this Country even better than it is right now.

i know you are not blind or at least you can read braille or have a text reader so you must be a bit on the slow side. i am pissed at obama. his health care plan is too conservative, we need a one payer socialist health care system run by the government like the va and medicare. the troops should be out or iraq and afghanistan but they are still there. quantanamo should have been shut down. dont ask dont tell should have been history. same sex marriage should be the law of the land. obama is way too far to the right for me. dont worry though, over the next 8 years we are gonna move him to the far left where we want him.

And I bet some of you rational folks out there thought I was over the top calling this idiot a asshat who is incapable of rational thought and is being directed by others!

I rest my case.

The Ant & the Grasshopper:

This one is a little different... . Two Different Versions.... ........
... Two Different Morals

OLD VERSION

The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away..

Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself!
__________________________________________

MODERN VERSION

The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving.

CBS, NBC , PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering
Grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.

America is stunned by the sharp contrast.
How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?

Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green.'

ACORN stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, We shall overcome. Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake.

President Obama condemns the ant and blames President Bush, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper's plight.

Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant
Has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.

Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.
The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having
Nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ants food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around them because the grasshoper doesn't maintain it.

The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again.

The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous and once peaceful, neighborhood.

The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it.

MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2010.

I've sent this to you because I believe that you are an ant not a grasshopper! Make sure that you pass this on to other ants. Don't bother sending it on to any grasshoppers because they wouldn't understand it, anyway.

Well I called this ASSHAT out last August.

It took until last month for the annointed ones to cast him to the wind.

I guess you tools here are now ready to admit he is what all us rational folks thought from day one.

He's an typical idiot.
