Abandon Hope (and Change)


It is likely that we are doomed to spending the rest of our lives listening to the idiots that we’ve elected prattle on about how the opposition party is bad and wrong, bereft of ideas, comprised of dunces, is un-American, and out of touch.

Some asshat politician from Indiana said ObamaCare is a worse act of terrorism than the 9-11 attacks.

Russ Limbo said if ObamaCare is upheld, he’ll move to Costa Rica.  (Enjoy the trip, Rush, and by the way, Costa Rica has completely socialized medicine.)

Scooter Walker says he won’t implement ObamaCare, because just though something is lawful doesn’t make it right.  (Oh, BTW, Scoot – thanks for screwing the state’s taxpayers by refusing the federal money to set up Insurance Exchanges; when the Feds come in and do that for us, we’ll have to pay for it all ourselves.)

Tea Party Tommy Thompson decries the Supreme’s ruling, and blathers on about his “Common-sense Market-Based Solution” to health care woes, and how he’ll singlehandedly repeal Obamacare.

Mitt Romney says on the first day he takes office, he’ll repeal ObamaCare.  (Wait – I thought Tea Party Tommy was going to do that……)

Several Dane County Democrats, who are apparently constantly in war mode, gleefully post taunting status updates on their social media feeds.

Those selfsame local pols posting the taunting rants are the same ones who said the opposite thing about the Supremes for striking down Montana’s attempt at clean government.

There is no hope.  None of these dweebs gets it.  We’re TIRED of the constant push-pull, the constant recriminations, the inability to work together toward solutions to problems we all face.

H. L. Mencken said it best: “Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin to slit throats.”

That’s about where I’m at these days.

  3. Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The text in your post seem to be running off the screen
    in Internet explorer. I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.
    The design look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon.

    Many thanks

  13. My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to
    .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
    But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on a number of websites for about a year and
    am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard
    fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I
    can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any kind of
    help would be really appreciated!

  15. First of all I would like to say terrific blog!
    I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing. I have had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out there. I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or tips? Thank you!

    to help fix this issue?

  24. I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your site?

    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for
    only having one or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
