Petulant Republican weirdos and Corporate media toadies are really upset Vice President Walz made a couch joke yesterday

Alanis Morissette should sue for Ironic! 

To the Fainting Couches!!!

For fucking years, Republicans have hurled the most vile, despicable, scurrilous, bigoted lies, smears and false accusations at liberals, elected Democratic officials, and anyone who pushes back against the rightwing agenda of intolerance, oppression, and the destruction of the United States.

The insults have ranged from micro aggressions of insulting Transpeople by calling them the wrong name to claiming Barack Obama, the duly elected President of the United States, was illegitimate and not really an American.

And now that liberals and Democratic officials are punching back, with absolutely true allegations, the Corporate Media and Reactionary journalists are mad and pouting about how unfair and nasty this is.

It's the bully and the toady dynamic.  Republicans are bullies who have and their Corporate Media toadies to tell the victims that you can't defend yourself or *gasp* fight back against their bullying.

David French says you can't punch back

It's really shameless.  Disgusting.  And demonstrates how captured and subservient the so-called Liberal Media is to Republicans.  For fucking years that treasonous criminal toad has insulted, slandered, and threatened anyone who opposes him.  Including members of the Justice Department, Judges, and officers of the court while he loses actual court cases.  And the Mainstream Media not only accepts it as Trump being Trump, they help spread his attacks.

Just. Last. Week.  Trump revived the Birther slur and declared soon-to-be President Kamala Harris isn't black according to his mind.  And the New York Times didn't immediately call for his resignation.  No, the FTFNYT, NPR, Washington Post and numerous other journalists declared Trump's Racist Attack raises questions for the Kamala Harris campaign.  Bullies and Toadies, a symbiotic relationship.

In fact, in response ABC News invited Byron Donalds of Florida, a black man married to a white women, who proceeded to defend DonOld Traitor Trump's charges of Miscegenation and racism, as he's done for years. And last week "J.D. Vance" proudly told a MAGA crowd while his wife isn't white, she's a good mother but, don't worry Vance is a shithead to his "mixed race" children as he posted a video of himself telling his son to shut the hell up about Pikachu for 30 seconds because he's on the phone with a DonOld Traitor Trump.  I can not believe these poor kids are going to have to grow up knowing the people whom their father idolizes think they are garbage.  What a weird mean thing to do to your son, especially for the King of the Weirdos.

Mary Katherine Ham says lay back and take it

Now, here is the unfortunate truth;  J.D. Vance did, in fact, fuck a couch despite what Republicans and the Corporate Media would have you believe, but did you also know his name isn't even "Vance"?  And his initials aren't "J.D."?  These were not the names assigned to him at his birth but, ones he adopted along the way?  And he expects other people to honor his later life choices, while he and his despicable Party of thugs and bullies treat people who are different like garbage and repeatedly threaten to murder them.  And Vance and several high-profile Republicans are repeatedly lying and claiming the Democratic Party was behind the shooting at Donald Trump, stoking the MAGA mob into taking the matter into their own hands with violence.

Always remember these calls for "be better" are
demands by Corporate Media journalists for
Democrats to not fight back

These fucking creepy criminals are the people the Corporate Media and Republican journalists demand you not make fun of or call them weird.  Because for 30 plus years, ever since that bloated fucking turd Newt Gingrich slandered and smeared Democrats as a political strategy, Republicans have gotten away with attacks over and over and over while Democrats crouched in a defensive stance like punching bags.

Well, that fucking time is over.  Soon-to-be President Kamala Harris and Vice President have signaled they are going to be Joyful Warriors pummeling the dour criminal duo of Traitor Trump and Couch Fucker Vance.  When we fight (back), we win.

Bathroom predators are predominantly white Republican and conservative men

Transgendered persons are, by far, the targets of insults, assaults, and victimization in bathrooms. Bullies have always recognized terrain suited to their vicious antics. Bathrooms have historically been one of their favored terrains for terrorizing their victims.

Republicans are bullies. Their entire governing style is to victimize those weaker than them. Their Bathroom Bigotry and Religious Restoration Laws are just the latest efforts to use the awesome power of the government to cement into law right-wing bigotry and advance the conservative values of Oppression, Intolerance, and Adulation of the Rich.

Conservatives demand a government which afflicts the afflicted and comforts the comfortable but, they also want free reign and legal cover to harm and oppress people themselves.

All of the Take Back the Country and Make America Great Again rhetoric thinly covers their anger that over the last 50 years the Federal Government has been aiding the poor, minorities, and marginalized segments of society. Aid which was meant exclusively for them!

Like most "Culture War" problems this is an issue which comes directly out of the sick and twisted minds of White Male Republican psyche. Once Republican take up an Oppressive Cause they will fight with every means at their disposal to ensure they make injustice legal and allow their right-wing drones the power to harass and torment those outside mainstream society.

White Male Republicans are forever terrorizing, tormenting, torturing, or sexually abusing people so they have concluded the rest of Society has the same perverted outlook as themselves.

As Republican Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert's recliner proved, "Bathroom Predators" are most often right-wing white males.

Back in his prep school days, just prior to being a Vietnam War Chickenhawk, 2012 Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney beat up fellow students at his fancy prep school, whom he concluded were gay, "He can't look like that. That's wrong. Just look at him!" and decided to enforce right-wing law,

They came upon Lauber, tackled him and pinned him to the ground. As Lauber, his eyes filling with tears, screamed for help, Romney repeatedly clipped his hair with a pair of scissors.

White male conservative have been streaming into Target restrooms to prove that what's happening in their sick and twisted minds is happening in real life. Of course, since these white male conservative terrorists only find each other in the women's restrooms, I'm not sure what conclusion they reach?

But, it's not just white male conservatives who enforce Republican Oppression, listen to this duped and battered "christian" woman march around Target,

"It’s time to stand up and have a voice, instead of bowing to the homosexual, perverted agenda that’s taken over this nation!"

With this woman's manner of dress, diction, hair style and admission she has 12 kids it's obvious she's a member of the fanatically reactionary right-wing Quiverfull community and during her screed, she inadvertently lists whom she really hates; LGBTQ persons not so-called "bathroom predators".

A woman, who had cut her hair short and donated it to Locks for Love, a company which makes wigs for children cancer patients was confronted by a white male conservative in a Connecticut Walmart bathroom, "You're disgusting! You don't belong here!" The man screamed in erudite terms he culled from Donald Trump's magnificent press conference speeches, after concluding she must be a transgender person.

In Kentucky, another conservative man saw a woman with a short haircut, put on his Morality Enforcement Badge and beat her up for looking too masculine. The beaten up woman reported the man yelled at her he was going to 'beat her like the man she wants to be' and 'people like her make him hate the world'.

In Chicago a white man with a solid republican hair cut and proper masculine conservative clothing hid in a Jason's Deli restroom and choked an 8 year old girl unconscious until the girls mother and other customers tried to stop him. The white man then attacked officers after being arrested. Conservatives immediately began to lie about the incident because they have to, none of the bathroom predators are transgendered instead they are predominantly white conservative males.

These incidents are going to increase because the Republican Party is giving legal cover and tacit approval for their conservative bully-boys to form their own Vice Squads to keep the LGBTQ society in check. And they are gleefully rubbing their hands together at the fervent hope this will whip up their right-wing drones into a voting frenzy for the upcoming elections. The peevish, flabby jowled never-missed-a-meal, coke-nostril Republican Lt. Governor of Texas Dan Patrick adamantly believes Hillary Clinton will lose the 2016 Presidential Election by trying to stop Republicans from empowering white conservative male bathroom predators.

Because that is what's going on here. The people stalking and attacking people in bathrooms are all white conservative men and Republican Voters.

Chris Christie's criminal abuse of power and the GW Bridge Scandal

"The good news for all of you and for me is that the governorship in New Jersey is the most powerful constitutional governorship in America.  

We know the answers. They're painful answers. We're going to have to reduce Medicare benefits. We're going to have to reduce Medicaid benefits. We're going to have to raise the Social Security age. We're going to have to do these things. We're going to have to cut all types of other government programs that some people in this room might like.  

We need to take on the teachers' union once and for all, and we need to decide who is determining our children's future, who is running this place. Them or us? I say it's us." 

- Chris Christie told David Koch in June 2011, as Governor Bully planned all sorts of shenanigans to steal billions first from New Jersey citizens, then from the rest of America and transfer it to the Koch Brothers and other Plutocrats.

Governor Chris Christie is not finished. The GW Bridge of Size Scandal will not lead to Impeachment and Christie sure as hell isn't going to resign.

The Sunday MSM shows are going to be disgusting. Chris Christie is going to be gushed over more than he was after he won the NJ Governor race. Christie was being touted by the MSM as the clear Front Runner for 2016 and now the MSM is going to put on a solemn face and talk about his seasoning and resolve in the face of this current "crisis".

Chris Christie's press conference has already being lauded by the Usual Media Suspects (Morning Joe), despite being a rambling incoherent mess in which Christie proclaimed himself the victim, blubbered about having no knowledge, and said "I" more time than an optometrist.

Chris Christie is nothing more than a petty bully but, with frighteningly Big Aspirations. I have no doubt that he knew and was very pleased with Bridget Anne Kelly, his deputy chief of staff, who sent an August 13 email to former Port Authority Director of Interstate Capital Projects David Wildstein, a longtime Christie friend and ally; "Time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee."

From inside the Governor's office, Bridget Anne Kelly and David Wildstein deliberately caused the GW Bridge closure with the "traffic study" as political payback for Fort Lee Mayor Sokolich and as punishment for an area which the Christie's people believed were Buono voters.

Kelly and Wildstein are in serious criminal trouble and now comes the waiting game to see what level of cooperation they will provide against the Criminal Christie. Because, despite Christie's claim 'I just found out I was lied too!', Christie had called NY Governor Andrew Cuomo in December to push him to drop any investigation of the Bridge closure.

Mr. Christie, a Republican, complained in a private phone call to Mr. Cuomo, a Democrat, that Patrick Foye, the executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, was pressing too hard to get to the bottom of why the number of toll lanes onto the bridge from Fort Lee, N.J. was cut from three to one in early September, according to this person. The lane closures occurred without notice to local authorities, officials have said, and snarled traffic for a week in the small borough on the Hudson River bluffs.

Additionally, Port Authority officers were advised by Christie's office to blame the traffic back-ups on Fort Lee Mayor Sokolich.

So, Christie's lies have already flopped, but back in December Big Bully Christie had all sorts of fun during interviews where he tried the shtick of 'Hey yo, didntca see me? Yea I waz out on the bridge with a vest and cones blocking traffic! Whatca gonna do about it! Ooooh!'

Huh. However, I'll take a direct quote from Christie and play it off as conservatives as do,

"I worked the cones. Unbeknownst to anyone, I was working the cones."

Chris Christie directly admitted to closing down the GW Bridge. Case fucking closed.

Christie thought he could get away with sarcastic denials about the scandal but once he could no longer play the Shtick, the Right-Wing Noise Machine leapt to his defense.

Dana Loesch, Erick Erickson, Michelle Malkin, Dan Riehl and all the wing-nut-o-sphere immediately leapt to their twitter accounts, But but but OBAMA!?! and Eric Holder won't investigate and Hillary Benghazi so that conservatives will make sure that talk of Chris Christie's criminal abuse of power will be deflected back into the Blame Barack Game.

But but but but OBAMA!?! is a conservative cry we are going to hear for decades to come.

Now, the thing is if Christie manages to avoid liability but slyly acknowledge he was getting some political payback out of this his stature will rise amongst the Tea Party crowd and the ultra-reactionary right-wing pundits.

And that's where Christie becomes really dangerous because right now he is the Koch Brothers chosen candidate;

"Five months ago we met in my New York City office and spoke, just the two of us, for about two hours on his objectives and successes in correcting many of the most serious problems of the New Jersey state government," David Koch said. "At the end of our conversation, I said to myself, 'I'm really impressed and inspired by this man. He is my kind of guy.'"

In 2011, the Koch Brothers flew Christie out to their Billionaires Strategic Planning Convention (a.k.a. The Legion of Doom) in order for him to give the keynote address.

TheBradBlog acquired audio recordings of Christie's keynote speeches to the Plutocrats in which the assembled Billionaires entreated Christie to run in 2012. Christie declined, probably because he knew it was foolish to go up against President Obama, but set the stage for a 2016 candidacy.

"Please, if you leave with just one message from me, if only one message sticks: This is a huge moment of crisis and opportunity for our country. All of you are the people who are going to lead us back to American greatness. If you care enough to do it."

Forged in Political Fire of his making, but quenched by the tongue baths of fawning media fans, and swaddled in the money of Plutocrats, Christie may be able to emerge from this Criminal Scandal as the Presidential Front Runner of 2016.

Ever wonder what happened to that High School Bully? Well he turned into Mitt Romney.

Picking on those "weaker" than themselves is a time-honored conservative tradition. So it
should come as no surprise that Mitt Romney was a High School bully.

According to Jason Horowitz of the Washington Post, Mitt Romney physically assaulted at least one student at Cranbrook School in 1965.

"He can’t look like that. That’s wrong. Just look at him!” an incensed Romney told Matthew Friedemann, his close friend in the Stevens Hall dorm, according to Friedemann’s recollection. Mitt, the teenage son of Michigan Gov. George Romney, kept complaining about Lauber’s look, Friedemann recalled.

A few days later, Friedemann entered Stevens Hall off the school’s collegiate quad to find Romney marching out of his own room ahead of a prep school posse shouting about their plan to cut Lauber’s hair.

When asked about the incident by Faux News, Romney laughed off the incidents. Laughed... Laughed...

It's no surprise Mitt Romney was an evil vicious bully as a teenager, he was the same when he conducted a protest of Vietnam anti-war protesters while his dandified ass wasn't going to go anywhere near southeast Asia. [See My Post: So What Kind of Foul is Mitt Romney? Chicken Hawk or Vulture Capitalist?]

Now, looking back at Mitt's record as a job-destroying Vulture Capitalist, it can probably be seen in light of his bullying nature as out-right Sadism. Romney enjoyed making money while ruining Americans' lives.

Contrary to what became the standard accepted theory of Bullies, they aren't lacking in self-esteem they possess far too much belief in their inherent betterness than everyone else.

Listen and read any right-winger. In their opinion they are the "Real Americans". Only they understand the constitution. Only they understand the true meaning of liberty and freedom. Only they are pro-military. Only they have the proper values and traditions. And it is up to Conservatives to force those truths upon the non-conformists.

And that's exactly what Mitt Romney the vicious homophobic bully did to that student who "Can't Look like that!"

Update:
Eric Boehlert highlighted the insane anger and violent stupidity of Right-Wing bloggers, when the truth about Mitt Romney's disgusting, vicious bullying nature was revealed. “No one questions the accuracy of this story,” he remarked to Current TV host Jennifer Granholm. “They went bonkers. They said it was a hit job because the Washington Post did a very detailed report on Mitt Romney’s youth.”

Eat less Chick-fil-A Corporate Bully

Being stationed in CLNC (that's Camp Lejeune, North Carolina) for 4 years, one of the off-base fast food joints we had was Chick-fil-A. Their chicken sandwiches were decent, nothing to write home about, which is why I never wrote home about them.

However, before going into the specifics, let me ask you; When was the last time you mistook a quick fried chicken breast for a leaf of kale? Chick-fil-A is attempting to stop Vermont artist Bo Muller-Moore from using the phrase "Eat More Kale" because according to their bevy of Corporate criminal lawyers it violates their phrase "Eat Mor Chikin".

If Corproations are people, then Chick-fil-A is an ignorant, authoritarian, homophobic, self-righteous, chicken-shit bully with a cow udder fetish...

Now, to be completely fair the original founder of Chick-fil-A, S. Truett Cathy, appears to be an incredibly generous, hard-working and giving man (the opposite of the Ayn Randian Superman) as he spends time and gives vast amounts of money to charity.

But, just as Polybius described in the cycle of political revolution, once the goodly beloved king passes away or loses control of the realm (or in this case the Corporation) the small elite cadre which eventually takes over doesn't have the same benevolent aspects and descends into tyranny.

Of course, when the Mythical Age of Corporate Self-Regulation occurs we need not worry what a business like Chick-fil-A is doing because every cease-and-desist order or whatever they may be doing, it'll be with our best interests at heart.

The Democratic Party needs to Stop Whining and Start Fighting

"We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant." ~ Karl Popper

Republicans are obstructionists, Republicans are not helping us, Republicans just say no to everything, Republicans this, Republicans that; every Democrat in DC laments. Yes. Yes. Yes we know. 80% of the American people know. What the American people also want to know is; what are the Democrats going to do about it? When will Democrats stop tolerating the intolerant Republican menace?

Yes, we know that John Kyl and the Republicans are holding up the START treaty with Russia, endangering every American life, for the sole purpose of making President Obama look bad.

Yes, we know that Mitch McConnell, Jim Bunning, Richard Shelby and every Republican will block all legislation and nominations by the Obama's Executive branch, no matter what, for the sole purpose of making President Obama look bad.

Yes, we know that Republicans will never accept homosexuals as people let alone in the military no matter how many polls show the current military members don't give a damn, no matter if a hundred retired Generals and Admirals say it's time to let people serve openly, and no matter how many times Bush appointed Secretary of Defense Gates says it's time to change the policy.

Yes, we know that conservative Justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito have diligently done their duty to their Moneyed Masters in the Citizens United SCOTUS ruling and are now busy collecting their kickbacks and payoffs.

Yes, we know that Republicans use their position in Federal Government to funnel Billions of Taxpayer dollars to corporations, which then, give them consulting jobs and speaking engagements as bribes and kickbacks.

Yes, we know that Republicans would eliminate all regulations on Business allowing Brown & Williamson (now Reynold's American), BP, Halliburton, Massey Energy to sell deadly products to Americans and work employees in dangerous or deadly conditions.

Yes, we know that Republicans champion the continuation of the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan just as staunchly as they refuse to serve in them.

Yes, we know that Republicans are immune to reason when their blatant partisan hypocrisy is highlighted by Rachel Maddow or Jon Stewart.

Yes, we know that the vast majority of Republicans, like Tom DeLay, are convicted criminals who brazenly use campaign money to buy influence and steal elections.

But, what we progressives and liberals want to know is when are you going to stop trying to make friends with the Republican bullies who keep making you look foolish in your outreach efforts? We want to know when you are going to stop turning the other cheek and start meeting Republican lies and intolerance with truth and strength? When are the Democrats going to Fight Back against the Republican Menace?
