A Whole Lotta Craziness....
From my local paper....

I want to write a rebuttal, but this is just too freakin' insane:

"Not a nomination, but an ‘obamanation’
To the Editor:

This is not a nomination, but an obamanation. To think we would ever want to have a justice of the Supreme Court so arrogant and racist in her beliefs is beyond me. What is President Obama thinking? She’s a bully in the courtroom, she thinks her job is to make policy (it is not!) and she also thinks that Latina women can make better decisions than a white man. What about when there’s a white man in front of her in court. We’ll she step aside and let a white male justice take that one? I hardly think so.

Obama is ruining this country — what’s left of it after his first 100 days of pillaging and plunder. He is doing everything to grab power, make people dependent on government and dictate what we can do, say, etc.

Mein Furher Obama? Herr Obama? I want to Ovomit!

I am so disgusted with all these people in power. It will be only a matter of time before we all rise up and take back our country, as we did in the Revolutionary War.
Obama needs to be taken out of office and replaced with someone who cares about our security and economic well-being and is not just out for himself. Obama stinks!

Carolyn Troiano"

If this is her she's a Creative Inventor at CAT Toys, a Creative Poet at Rhymes with Love and a Creative Writer at CATNip Books.

A very creative woman.

If McAuliffe is allowed to govern this state, or any state, we’re doomed!

Anyone following the Democratic agenda is just destroying the fabric of our country. We used to be “Americans”, and I wish people would think back to 9/12/2001 and remember what that meant on that day.

Here’s what America is becoming, as this administration continues to plant more roots…

One Brother Against My America.

You’ve been looking for change, my friend? Why, you’re “American”, aren’t you? Then you already know all about change, and that’s your greatest strength. You anticipate it, prepare for it, deal with it. Hard. Straight. You know just how to use that change to make this great land of ours even greater. Ingenuity. That’s it, Mac. Ingenuity. Be a “Maverick”! You can’t get any more “American” than that, can you? You can’t buy it, you can’t elect it. You have to BE it. Yes, Sir-ree, just “Be American”!

But like it or not, times may be a-changin’. For the first time in my adult life, I’m not proud of what this country might become.

Let me tell you a little story. Fast-forward to 2009. The Obama Administration is in full-swing. What about your father, brothers, sons, and friends, who sacrificed life and limb to preserve and protect the freedom and democracy that we, as “Americans”, used to hold so dear to our hearts? What happened to their memory, you ask? Well, that’s all changed, now. Yes, my friend, you can find their names on the “Wall of Mistakes”, erected by the new OBAMA Administration. Right there on the Capitol Mall, towering over all those gardens that used to be one or another “War Memorial”. Those Memorials, you ask? They’re long gone, replaced by beautiful trees and flowers, shaded by the great, great new “Wall”. After all, no sense in remembering what was so wrong about our country, is there? No, after admitting our mistakes to the rest of the world, the only thing left to do was to plaster them on that great big “Wall of Mistakes”, for everyone to see, so that we never forget that we are not the greatest country in the world. How did we ever come to think we were so “special” anyway?

What about all those countries we liberated, and all those other, evil ones still posing a national risk, you ask? Shhhh!! Don’t let anyone hear you talk such nonsense. We have no “Enemies”. We don’t need any military power. We’re just like everyone else in the world. No better, no worse. We don’t need to lose our blood fighting for the freedom of other people in the world. Democracy is overrated, anyway. No, we just need to stop being so proud-foolish! Now if that ain’t change, I don’t know what is!

You ask about hard work? No, that notion is long gone! No one is supposed to out-do their neighbor. At best, that might be considered “impolite”. At worst, they’ll call you a “racist”. Don’t go there! Just do what everyone else does, no more, no less. Don’t try to be a hero, or a soldier, or, oh, my goodness gracious, a “Maverick”! No, Sir-ree, there’s no room for any “Mavericks” in this land. In fact, I don’t know if we even are a country anymore. After all, our leader, Mr. OBAMA, sits on the board of the “Foundation for the Redistribution of All Unused Deeds”. We want to make sure the goodness of every deed is shared by all the people of this world, not just those we used to call “Americans”. No, Sir-ree, we don’t want to be gluttons when it comes to all the fruits of our labor. Gosh! What a bunch of Capitalistic Pigs we used to be! No, not in this Administration of Change. Just do the minimum required, and make sure there is no excess to fight over. What a senseless waste that would be!

No, we’ve got it right now. No wars, no greed, no enemies. You ask about “Pride”? Funny, I don’t recall that one. Is it something we used to know about? Something we used to feel? Oh, heck, I just can’t place it! Pride! Huh! It must have cost a lot, because we don’t have any room for anything like that in this new land. It’s not in our budget. OBAMA has made damn sure of that!

So, sleep well, good Buddy! Oh, and sleep is much easier now, because you don’t even have to dream! Boy, was that a weight off of my shoulders, not having to dream anymore. My dreams kept bothering me. They kept making me think I wasn’t doing something right. They kept telling me to do something different. Now I know. I don’t need to dream. The government is doing all the dreaming for us, now. Leaving us alone to sleep. And, man-oh-man, am I tired. I might as well roll off to sleep now. There’s nothing else for me to do anyway. Just sleep, and get my three government squares a day. I don’t even have to be bothered looking forward to anything anymore. Is this “Easy Street” or what? Sleep well, my friend. Sleep well!

3. state of our MSM
These are the beliefs people hold when they consume corporate main stream media.

Our public discourse is overflowing with COMPLETE BULLSHIT!!!!

We better come up with something to grow a truly informed populous soon, or we are truly condemned to corporate serfdom.

4. Not only stupid and racist, but completely unaware of how
SCOTUS functions:

'What about when there’s a white man in front of her in court. Will she step aside and let a white male justice take that one?'
