Yesterday I caught up on blogging, at last. I’m current with replies. Tomorrow I may be late getting everything out, because I have a fantasy football draft in the morning. Thoughts and prayers, please, for the New York City shooting victims and their families.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 4:48 (average 5:14). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From MoveOn: Willy Wonka Has An Important Question About Paul Ryan
That is a subject Willard wants us to forget!
From MSNBC: Rewriting the battle for the craziest Republican
Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
They all need a time out, and lets not forget Batshit B and Drill Baby Dingbat!
From Politicus USA: One may be inclined to excuse talk of rebellion as angry rhetoric from a fringe element in the tea party, but a Virginia Republican Committee newsletter [Republican extremists delinked] has called for armed revolution if President Obama is re-elected in November.
This is the kind of vile rhetoric that inspires crazies with guns to commit hate crimes.
Cartoon:
Now Republicans are doing so.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
5:04 TomCat, I think we both will be left with an empty scoop of puzzle prize today.
4:45 Damn, that was a toughie, especially one particular piece that I thought belonged in a number of different places. Those aren't sweet candies. They are super sour! I thought I spots before my eyes!
4:34 My sweet tooth carried the day!
:-p Tough one!
Puzzle — 4:45 Nothing sweet here!
MoveOn — I heard 2 years but if Rmoney thinks that will make his own tax return debacle dissipate into thin air, he'd better think again! Where there is smoke, there is usually fire! My bet is on a raging forest fire! Donkey's are stubborn — they won't forget!
MSNBC — I love these videos because I always end up watching a bunch of them and they are so interesting. I have always thought that Alan West was at least 3 fries short of a happy meal ever since I ran into him about a year ago! Guano Girl, the Dingbat etc are equally at least 3 fries short of a happy meal. Mike Huckabee, Ryan and Rmoney are plain sick!
Politicus USA — I heard about this one the other day. I know I said that if the Republican/Teabaggers were to win, there would be a revolution, another civil war. But I didn't see it as armed insurrection at first. These nitwits are talking about armed insurrection! These guys aren't patriots! They are no better than playground bullies that will kick the dirt and pout because they didn't get their own way. I just don't see how logically, these self righteous bastards can call themselves patriots!
Cartoon — Exactly what the Republican/Teabaggers are trying to do today!
Beat me. 🙁
We need to keep that alive.
3 fries hell! He's a potato farm and a cattle ranch short of a Happy Meal!
They use the Orwellian method.
Thanks!
I read the Republican news letter, just one more example of how far they are willing to go to keep Pres. Obama from a second term.
Indeedie, Edie! 🙂
You silly girl are you stupid as well. Heart are my specialty, said the hookah smoking caterpillar.
And that caterpillar never saw a Republican!
Tax returns? What tax returns? Isn't that only for the rabble to worry about?
Ingenious commercial! Murphy is brilliant!
Thanks, Patty, I agree!
My comment refers to your comment to me.
FYI….ITC That remark was void of any Political subject. It was a quote from the famed "Alice in Wonderland" novel spoken by Epsilon. Your lack to read in between the lines urges me to respond with exasperation and ponder what insidious thoughts do you think run through my mind, to be insulted and scolded as by some inferiority complected superior.
Pat, I see no comment to you in this thread, so I have no idea what comment you are referring to. I thought you were humorously talking about the fantasy world of Republicans, and I humorously played along. There was absolutely no insult, scolding or superiority in what I replied.
WHAT !!!!!!
My remark was void of any political content.
What insidious thoughts do you think run through my mind,? That I should be insulted and scolded by some inferiority complected superior…huh?
Again?
