Makes Perfect Sense To Me

After this story, I'm pretty embarrassed by the state in which I was born.

Perry Beam, who was among the spectators and has called attention to the act, told the Associated Press that "everybody screamed" and "just went wild” over the rodeo show. "It was at that point I began to feel a sense of fear. It was that level of enthusiasm," said Beam, a Higginsville resident.

Ah, the dark heart of American populism. My buddy Reverend Jim remarked this was "just as bad as when the bloody Bushitler posters went up." Really? I don't recall clowns play hitting the big lips of W as they did with the Obama mask at this rodeo.

Of course, it all makes perfect sense considering that now that it's town hall season (see: old white people yellin' and all afeared of blackie!) the birth certificate had to come up again.

Farenthold’s declaration came after a woman, who cannot be seen on the video, presents a folder to Farenthold that she says contains proof that Obama’s birth certificate was faked. “I’ll take a look at it,” Farenthold said. “I’ll tell you on the whole birth certificate issue … I think unfortunately the horse is already out of the barn on this.The original Congress when his eligibility came up should have looked into this and it didn’t. I’m not sure how we fix it.” The unidentified woman continued to press, saying “do we allow a president, if he has committed a felony, do we allow him to go unpunished?” 

I wonder if any of these creeps are going to question the fact that Ted Cruz was born in Canada. Nah, he's got an R next to his name so he's alright!

Thou shalt not mock O, right?


Oh, and it's only the lip playing part that makes it bad? Which one of the clowns got banned? The lip player or the mask wearer.


You should pay more attention to Rev. Jim and a bit less to the sound of your own voice lecturing.....

Once again M obsesses about the frivolous over the substantive.

Like Obama's pre-vacation speech.

Alas, Obama-as-daddy-figure isn't even wise and measured with his heavy-handedness, like Cliff Huxtable. Instead, America is stuck with one of those control-freak dads.

Or the big announcement on the War on Drugs, in which the AG doesn't merely stake out a position for reform, but declares that the Administration will ignore the law.

No, no, these are not worthwhile topics for discussion - but some rodeo clown in Missouri is reflective of the nation as a whole.

I don't know about childish - that damn sure is dishonest.

I'll have a post coming soon about mandatory minimum sentences. Strange, though. I thought you would be in favor of loosening harsh government penalties for prohibition that doesn't work.

Who says anyone is in favor of it?????

You can't have the rule of law without respecting the law. There should be NO fucking penalty for possessing any "controlled substance". But we have to get there by de-scheduling (something the Administration can do at ANY time), and repealing the CSA (and that will take an act of Congress).
