I usually atribute my extreme bouts of coprolalia inspired by the current administration to Tourette Syndrome. I guess the GOP will start searching the Racial Pool to try to find a candidate to appeal to broader cross-sections of the electorate rather than looking for the best candidate to articulate a strong, conservative, limited-government message. Meanwhile, the teleprompter-reader in chief will get away with singing some BS Coal Oil Rap about how green energy subsidies are good for the economy. But hey, you can stand there and blow BS up the collective asses of the voters; as long as you are a Cool Liar, PA voters will continue to support you if you have the (D) behind your name. Given the election results, the determination of democrats to view obama's reelection as a mandate for socialism, and the GOP's propensity to Fail, crap looms ahead on almost every imaginable front.

Will Republicans Bargain Away Entitlement Reform in the Fiscal Cliff Deal?

Reid: 'Fiscal cliff' deal must raise debt ceiling (Senate budget not mentioned)

Not “swarthy” as much as “weather-beaten.” ;-)

Oh, s***, is that ever a good word to describe the way I react...

Obama and his idiot staff
Are the worst to be seen-
I indulge in coprolalia as
I shout at the TV screen

Dropping F-bombs as I reach
For the remote to press “mute”
I’m having deja vu of Nixon-
Just darker, in a newer suit

I’m sure my manners will return
When they’re out, like Nixon’s bunch-
My tolerance improves by having
The money for a decent lunch...

I am reading “The Caine Mutiny” right now. Captain Queeg is a perfect match except that Queeg probably loved American in spite of his pusillanimous cowardice.
