The stupid people are winning.
Despite my very best efforts, the dumbing down of America might officially be complete.
Making matters worse, I am forced to stick up for a couple of Democrats. I do not like defending Democrats.
Yet credibility trumps ideology, and a pair of incidents are forcing me to step in and restore sanity.
The first incident involves the inappropriate use of the term “Las Vegas.”
For those who do not know, Las Vegas is the gambling and screwing capital of the world. Yes, I know, there is more to sin city. Let it go. People go to Vegas for the decadence. Such trips are enjoyable luxuries, not necessities.
Speaking of something that has nothing to do with necessity, Barack Obama spoke again.
While much of what he says is insincere and irrelevant blather, he said something sensible this time. He said that people should not go and blow their money in Las Vegas if they have a mortgage to pay off.
This was a completely harmless comment that was about preaching fiscal responsibility.
If one wants to criticize Obama for hypocrisy on fiscal matters, that is fine. Yet the comment itself was an intelligent comment.
The people of Las Vegas were not amused. They treated the remarks as if their city was under nuclear attack.
Are we at that point in society where telling people not to gamble with the rent money is a crime?
Harry Reid criticized the remarks. Harry Reid could use the moral high ground, given that his last dustup with Obama involved a racial epithet.
I defended Reid then because I felt people needed to chill out. Now Reid and everyone else in Vegas should do the same.
Vegas is a great city. I love Vegas. I don’t gamble much, but the lights are gorgeous, and the women jiggling in their pasties are very pleasant. The buffets are better. Combine eating buffet food off a stripper’s belly, and the night is perfect.
What was my point again?
Oh yeah. Much ado about nonsense.
This is the second time Obama was accused of “attacking” Vegas. Nevada politicians have bigger things to worry about.
The only thing Obama was guilty of was violating political correctness.
Yet if Vegas was an ant, another retarded matter was an elephant, and not a Republican one.
It kills me, but in a dispute involving Sarah Palin and Rahm Emanuel, I am siding with Rahmbo.
Sarah Palin is one of the best human beings in politics. Rahm Emanuel is one of the worst. Yet in a retarded issue that should never be stupid enough to become an issue at all, I have to defend Rahm.
In a private meeting, Emanuel referred to liberals as “f*cking retarded.”
He was 100% right. They are retarded. They need to hear that every single day.
Rahm Emanuel has few redeeming qualities, but at least he is politically incorrect. In 2006 he dragged the Democratic Party kicking and screaming into normalcy. Normal means non-liberal.
Like an intelligent strategist, Rahm does not want ideological purity. He wants winning. Liberals are threatening to go after moderate Democrats. This is nuts. It is insane. It is retarded.
Retarded is an insult because it refers to people of low intelligence. What else would one call liberals who cut off their noses to spite their leftist faces?
Now we are told that retarded is the sacred r-word, similar to the n-word.
Absolutely not. Black people were 3/5 of a human being. They had fire hoses turned on them. Nobody is taking special needs children and dousing them with water or gasoline.
The Black Eyed Peas are black skinned human beings. Their song “Let’s get retarded” was sung at the Democratic Convention in 2004. True they altered the lyrics in some venues to make it “Let’s get it started,” but the song is “Let’s get retarded.” Should the entire party apologizing for wanting to get “ign’nt,” which is is the same as getting ignorant, except with more slang? (Apparently getting ign’nt is like getting stupid, which in the world of hip hop dancing, is a positive thing, in the same way Michael Jackson meant “bad” to be good.) Will we burn Black Eyed Peas music like we did with the Beatles?
An episode of South Park dealt with 9/11 conspiracies. Cartman stated that 25% of people believed in them, and asked if that made 25% of Americans retards. Kyle responded to Cartman that “There are 4 of us. You’re a retard. So, yes.”
Liberals have wrecked society with political correctness, and conservatives should not join the fray. I totally sided with Sarah Palin when Letterman attacked her kids. Yet nothing Emanuel said was a slap at special needs children.
The Democrats are an entire political party of special needs children. When they turn on themselves, it is quite the spectacle.
I am sick of terms like “special needs” children and “handicapable” people. They are not handicapable. They are handicapped. They have limitations. This is not in any way a slight. It is a statement of fact. Ask any kid with a limitation of they would rather be like other kids, and they would say yes. Calling a kid “special” may make them feel good, but kids are not stupid. They know it is a euphemism that masks the fact that they have to work harder to do tasks other kids do with ease.
I once played in a basketball game where we all played so badly that one of the guys said we were playing like the “Special Olympics of Basketball.”
Fine, we are insensitive b@stards.
Should Rahm Emanuel called the liberals a bunch of p*ssies? Or would that have affected the feline lobby? How about morons? Or would dyslexic Mormons think he meant them? How about stupid idiots? Would that have been better? What about dumbos? Would flying elephants complain?
I am so tired of mentally ill people being called special. I have dealt with many of them. They are not all special. Some of them are just f*cking crazy wack jobs.
Yes I take a small amount of glee in watching Barack Obama and Rahm Emanuel get cannibalized by their own. Oh wait, I have to be careful not to offend Hannibal Lecter supporters.
The madness has to stop.
Rahm Emanuel’s job is to take liberals and beat the sh*t out of them until they stop acting like liberals so that normal Democrats can maintain their seats. If that takes ruffling feathers, he gets paid to do that.
Sarah Palin is beautiful inside. Rahm Emanuel is ugly inside. That does not change the fact that Rahm Emanuel was insulting people who deserved it, and not in any way attacking innocent little children.
Oh, and the next time the National Organization for Women complains because a football coach tells his boys to stop playing like girls, they can shut up and join the NHL (National Harpie League).
I don’t like defending Democrats.
I just love defending freedom of speech more.
The political correctness must stop.
Those who don’t grasp this are more retarded than the congressional leftists Emanuel was b*tchslapping.
eric
Well said my friend, well said!
I thought you might bring in Emanuel’s fish story or the fact that he is also
an accomplished dancer who cusses a lot and that combination would make anybody look retarded.
Just imagine… A guy carry a dead fish around while dancing on his tippy toes toward that constituent he wants to throw it at all the while cussing profanities…
Is today Thursday? …already !
grammer correction “carrying” instead of “carry”
Yeah, what Obama said was common sense but you’d think after the first time he used Vegas in this manner and Reid went off the deep end he’d have brains enough to use another example of a way to waste money.
Oh well, alls well that ends well I guess, the more Reid and everyone in Vegas that gets pi$$ed with Obama the better.
Besides that, what f*%#ng business does the most economically irresponsible president in history have telling anyone how to spend money ?
I mean really ?
Its like Clinton telling everyone how to maintain a marriage
To say that Obama is “the most economically irresponsible president in history” is retarded.
JMJ
To not realize it is brain dead
Wow. I’ve tried to post a bunch of comments on this post and have had only one go through. It’s getting beyond hopelessly frustrating.
JMJ
And of course the majority of the people that are running from him and his failed economic policies, including the dems who have some serious questions are all retarded too I suppose ?
But what else are we to expect from Jersey Mcjones ?
Please tell me why the country has begun to reject the policies we see attempting to be placed ? And why states that have historically voted democratic now voting republican ?
Because they are retards and just cant fathom the ever endowing wisdom and knoweledge that is that of Jersey McJones
I wonder sometimes, had Rahm not been so successful in making people
believe in the unreal, vs the real, ( Obama the messiah, vs McCain, the
prisoner of war), and McCain/Palin won the election, how different things would have been?
How would the health plan fared? What about cap and trade? Would unemployment be at 20% and rising? Would we be borrowing trillions from
abroad and still dependent on foreign oil?
Would there have been a Hasan? Would Mohammads be tried for terrorism
in lower Manhattan? Would Gitmo be a source of controversy in the Arab-Muslim and third worlds? Would they like US any differently?
I read that a Pakistani women, employed in the US, was found guilty
by a US court, of attemting to murder our boys in Afghanistan and planning
to bomb attractions in New York (including the famous statue).
She screamed at her attorneys, the jurors and others during the trial, accusing we Jews of the entire arrest, detention and trial.
She claimed she could bring an end to the M.E. crisis.
Sure!
It is believed she is an Al Qaeda supporter.
To my original point, it is about winning, then policy.
Obama had the charm to win but has no policy, and it’s been
showing for 1 year.
Is Mike pence “Reatarded”?
WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Congressman Mike Pence:
“The budget brought by the majority to this floor in this debate spends too much, taxes too much and borrows too much-and the American people know it.
“The Democrat budget will double the national debt in five years, triple it in ten-and the numbers tell the tale. 2010 spending: $3 trillion, 25 percent of GDP, more than a trillion dollars in tax increases. 2010 deficit: a trillion dollars and estimates suggest deficits of nearly a trillion dollars for the next ten years.
“The truth is, the Democrat majority has brought to this floor the most fiscally irresponsible budget in American history.
=============
Is Bobby jindal “Retarded”?
“”The way to lead is not to raise taxes and put more money and power in hands of Washington politicians,” said Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, who gave the Republican Party’s official response. The massive economic stimulus bill recently enacted by Obama and congressional Democrats, Jindal said, will expand the government, “increase our taxes down the line, and saddle future generations with debt.”
“It’s irresponsible,” said Jindal…”
==============================
Are all these guys “Retarded”?
House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va,), Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), and Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) presented the broad outline of the Republican budget counter-proposal, stating that details would be forthcoming next week.
Boehner said the President’s proposal “spends, taxes, and borrows too much,” adding “I think it’s completely irresponsible.”
“Is Mike pence “Reatarded”?”
I don’t think so. But he’s most definitely a liar.
“Is Bobby jindal “Retarded”?”
To look at him, you’d think so, but I doubt it. He’s more of a goofball.
“Are all these guys “Retarded”?
House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio)” – No. Crook.
“Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va,)” – No. Just malevolent.
“Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.)” – No. He’s just a younger liar.
“Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) presented the broad outline of the Republican budget counter-proposal” – Broad outline??? IT HAD NO NUMBERS!
The GOP has no realistic proposal for anything. Just retarded talking points for the consumption of retards.
JMJ
The point is that you yourself cant call them retards yet they all feel obamas policies are irresponsible.
When you say stupid sht like “the gop having no proposals ‘ you make yourself sound seriously retarded because anyone with half a brain and sense of adult decorum knows they can view our propsals at any GOP website.
here, its easy
What Americans want are common-sense, responsible solutions that address the rising cost of health care and other major problems. In the national Republican address on Saturday, October 31, 2009, House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) discussed Republicans’ plan for common-sense health care reform our nation can afford. Boehner’s address emphasized four common-sense reforms that will lower health care costs and expand access to quality care without a government takeover of our nation’s health care system that kills jobs, raises taxes on small businesses, or cuts Medicare for seniors:
■Number one: let families and businesses buy health insurance across state lines.
■Number two: allow individuals, small businesses, and trade associations to pool together and acquire health insurance at lower prices, the same way large corporations and labor unions do.
■Number three: give states the tools to create their own innovative reforms that lower health care costs.
■Number four: end junk lawsuits that contribute to higher health care costs by increasing the number of tests and procedures that physicians sometimes order not because they think it’s good medicine, but because they are afraid of being sued.

Democrats have proposed the establishment of a public-option government-run health plan. Some of the consequences of this government take over of health care include higher costs, lower quality and fewer choices.
Government Control:
Government programs constitute nearly half of all health care spending, and further increasing government’s clout may well limit patient care as a way to contain costs. The federal government already imposes price controls on doctors, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies. Controls on patient procedures are likely to follow.
Spending and Tax Increases:
Democrats proposed more than $850 billion in tax increases on small businesses and middle class families to pay for their health care reform plan. Health spending will jump from 16.6% to 17.6% of GDP this year alone. House Democrats are calling for an additional $1.6 trillion in new health spending – on top of the more than $150 billion in health spending in the “stimulus” bill.
Massive, Forced Dislocation of Currently Insured Individuals:
Analysis by actuaries at the independent Lewin Group found that nearly 114 million individuals could involuntarily lose their private coverage due to a government-run plan, and be forced into the public plan.
Reduced Revenue for Providers:
Other analysis by the Lewin Group found that a government-run plan reimbursing at Medicare rates would cause hospitals’ total revenue to drop by nearly 5% ($36.5 billion), and physicians’ total revenue to decline by nearly 7% ($36.4 billion).
Poorer Coverage and Access:
CBO Director Doug Elmendorf recently testified that traditional Medicare provides a benefit package 15% lower than the standard employer-sponsored plan which is one reason why more than four in five Medicare beneficiaries rely on supplemental health coverage. In Medicaid, low provider participation rates often lead to long waits for care, such that low-income Americans would prefer private insurance coverage to Medicaid by a more than two-to-one margin.
Fraud:
Reports by the Government Accountability Office and other watchdog groups have highlighted persistent problems with fraud in government-run Medicare – estimating tens of billions per year, at taxpayer expense.

so let me guess, you’re next lame asinine remark will be that thy’re not ‘realistic’ and so then the great Jersey Mcjones is going to define reality for us all… how my doin so far ?
pathetic, you never can argue a point without trying to defeat it by going to ones intellect. just makes you look stupid really
I got up this morning and turned on the news. My God, Obama was on t.v. again. There he was looking down his nose and smirking at me and preaching as arrogantly as possible and telling me that I am an ideological moron because I disagree with everything, and I mean everything, he stands for. I flipped him off and changed to the weather channel. I like some of the tunes they play during “local on the 8s”
Don’t be sucked in by the Dems and their slamming Obama they are not sincere. They are just afraid for their jobs. The Dems will jump ship, run like rats, scatter like quail, scurry like cockroaches in the light, lie and stab any body in the back to maintain their positions. There is no honor among thieves.
It will take a miracle to clean up this mess, and removing a few Dems from their ivory towers will not get the job done. I remember something Hillary said during the great 2008 compaign refering to the economic down turn, “We need to take some things away from some people”. She is right and I recommend starting with the EPA. Unfund and dismantle the EPA.
This bloated bureaucracy has done more harm to families, communities, businesses and local governments over the years than we will ever be able to repair. All in the name of protecting whatever or whomever they want to protect at the moment. I made an observation years ago that the EPA was eat up with PhDs all trying to write papers and not plagarize each other. That still stands.
I wonder how much tax money we would save?
Oh yeah, what about the 10s of thousands of government employees without jobs? I don’t care.
Toma
Micky, is it supposed to come as a surprise to me that a bunch of Repulicans – many of whom were complicit in the wrecking the nation during the GOP years – say Obama’s economic policies are “irresponsible?” Really? Now, if you could show me some economists – not partisan shill economists, but real economists – who think Obama and the Dems are being “irresponsible” then I could take that seriously. Otherwise, it’s just retarded.
As for their “solutions,” they are retarded. As for their critiques of what refoprms have been offered, they are retarded as well. If you think tort reform will fix anything, you’re retarded. If think the federal government can force the states to allow interstate insurance sales, you’re retarded. If you think insurance co-ops work, after they’ve been pretty much proven a complete failure in most caes, you’re retarded. These “proposals” are nothing but phony political talking points. Retarded.
If what “Americans want are common-sense, responsible solutions that address the rising cost of health care” then they should stop being retarded and do what every other developed nation on Earth does – install a universal system.
But as long as retardedly concern ourselves with stupid nonsense like “dismatling the EPA” or fussing over “political correctness,” we’ll never get anything substantial done.
JMJ
No American is Hitler, and no American is worse than the terrorists.
I am ashamed of all of you for using the word retarded. I don’t know where you got the idea that was ok.
Oh wait…never mind.
eric :)
A dismantled EPA is just a start. Jers, you sound just like Obama.
Reap the whirlwind the retards have risen.
Toma
Its 11:40am central. Obama is on t v again. hurry y’all you might miss it.
He is preaching to small business owners. A learning moment to be sure.

“, is it supposed to come as a surprise to me that a bunch of Repulicans – many of whom were complicit in the wrecking the nation during the GOP years – say Obama’s economic policies are “irresponsible?” Really ?”
The point was that you said only a retard would think that. So far you have not beenable to call those that concure with me “retards”.
You can call me and the GOPs solutiond retarded all you want. Thec fact vis that many on the left are beggining to see just how irresponsible Obamas policies are.
As faras giving you any data or opiniond from any reputable econoist to do such a thing on my part would be retarded because as I’ve learned from dealing with you its only partisan liberal opinions that matter to you.
Your brand is taking a beating because its retarded to do whats failed so many times in the past. The people are getting hip to your sht.
The beating will continue to get worse for your party as everyone incrementally by demographics is coming to see just what a disasterous pic this president was.
Economst ? HAH!!
My 14 year old has done the math and can see what a bunch of bs this all is.
The basic layman on the street who can balance a checkbook knows its all bs.
Stop spending, start cutting, give the people some money and stop making every freeking thing under the sun an emergency that requires fear mongering salesmanship to get thru.
Stop the lies. Stop saying you’ll do one thing and in less than 24 hrs turn around and do the opposite. Stop treating people like they’re idiots who dont know whats best for them and they’re country and most off all knock of the crap that you’re smarter than everyone else. Otherwise you guys wouldnt be runing like lemmings with their hair on fire right now if that were true.
Change is coming bro, and its not the change you all votedfor

The only guy thats done more bending over and showing his a$$ than me is Obama…just gotta check in every few months now.
