Shame on me for indulging my more banal impulses- in a way.
Have I mentioned that I’m no paragon of virtue?
I should be more worried about any number of more important things, including various and sundry deadly contagious diseases. I’ve never had any respect, love, admiration or anything but animosity toward the current Squatter-in-Chief aka: Obama the Ebola King, (all Hail to the Thief, heh-heh) but now I’m convinced that Obama really does have nothing but malice toward the American people. Why in the flying hell have we been allowing flights to come in from Ebola-harboring locales? Why in the flying hell haven’t our borders been secured a LONG time ago? If B.O. thinks he can executive-order his way through governance, one would think that creating a no-fly list would be a no brainer. Then again, B.O. doesn’t have much of a brain- or his aim is to destroy this country.
If his aim is to trash this country, he’s doing a damned fine job of it. The sad thing is that he’s not alone in his efforts.
The more I stew and steam about Obama’s extreme ineptitude (malice?!) and those in collaboration with him the more I realize that there’s not a damned thing I can do about it. I can wish in one hand and shit in the other and we all know which one will fill up first. All I can do is vote the right way and hope that the lame-ass Secretary of State and Attorney General of Ohio (both supposedly Republicans) have done something to prevent the rampant voter fraud (that I witnessed with my own two eyeballs, but that they both swear up and down didn’t happen in 2012) from happening again.
Now that rant’s over, so I can start on the trivialities.
Such as my current favorite cartoon, Brickleberry. This is classic.
It’s probably not a good thing that I find the concept of farts that smell like Christmas funny, but it could be worse.
ELYSIANHUNTER, ALWAYS INCITEFUL: 
This was particularly well-written. Perhaps your Obama animus (Obanimus?) brought out your very best.
Although I am liberal by nature (and there is a huge difference between liberal and progressive; I am not progressive), I’ve been pretty disgusted by the current administration. I don’t agree with you that Obama is deliberately sabotaging the country (I think it’s ineptitude compounded by arrogance and a distorted and misaligned worldview), but I do agree that his administration has been so bad as to give serious fuel to that argument.
I appreciate that. I must have been on a roll that day.
“Liberal” in the old school sense is more like today’s libertarian- and even though I am a Republican and am conservative by nature- I do have a pretty wide libertarian streak. “Conservative” in the true sense is being more of a traditionalist vs. just blindly embracing the latest fads. It doesn’t mean having a closed mind or being intolerant of others. Unless others’ actions are stupid or destructive, or wrongfully paid for on the taxpayers’ dime, I generally don’t get too fired up about what other people do.
That must be why Obama pisses me off so much. Even if he would claim to have beneficent motives for what he does (then again, only Obama and God know what’s up in his heart and mind,) the trail of devastation he’s leaving behind speaks otherwise. Either he’s downright evil- or too arrogant and stupid to realize that sometimes you have to suck it up and admit when you’re wrong. And sometimes (and this is interesting to say coming from the loner chick with Asperger’s) you have to get along and play nice with others.
The great philosopher Mick Jagger said it best: “You can’t always get what you want/ you can try sometimes/ you just might find/ you get what you need.” Most mature adults realize that if you are going to attempt to get things done and unite people toward a common goal, you can’t always get your own way. At best, he has the mentality of a petulant toddler who doesn’t get the meaning of the word “no.” At the very worst, he’s actively seeking to do as much damage to this country as he possibly can.
The next two years are going to be very interesting.
