What A Week!

Wow, what a week!  Too bad David Frost isn’t still doing that 60’s Friday Evening program, “That Was The Week That Was!”  If they did, they would have 2 problems, they wouldn’t know where to begin and they wouldn’t know where to end.  Plus, what would be the story of the week?  I do have that one figured out, but as for the rest, we are drowning in a sundry of false statements and misdirection tactics and I’m not sure how long I am able to tread water.  The Republican Party has hit new highs, or lows, in verbiage this past week in whatever garbage they were slinging at us that fact checkers have to be very ecstatic to be wallowing in job security.  There are 2 Republicans though that are off the hook, Representatives Liz Cheney ® Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger ® Illinois.  These 2 are the only voice of reason in their Party and it is nothing short of a miracle that they have survived at all.   So, you ready?  Let’s pick apart these “Pubs” that are in this week’s spotlight of elephant sized lies.

First up are a couple of Burger King sized Whoppers that are actually polar opposites that affect the same results: Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy claimed that, “I don’t think that anybody is questioning the legitimacy of the presidential election.  I think that is all over with.  We’re sitting here with the President today.”  Unfortunately for him, he is wrong on so many different levels.  I guess he didn’t get the Monday memo from his golfing buddy as to how we have gone through, “The Greatest Election Fraud In The History Of Our Country” and today when he sent out a message to the general public about it being, “The Crime Of The Century.”  Sounds like these 2 won’t be able play well together.  There has to be a few million folks out there that have replayed McCarthy’s statement over and over trying to figure out just, where the hell did that come from?  And to make it even more mind boggling, his statement was in answer to Elise Stefanik’s statement of “election irregularities, unconstitutional overreach and a lack of ballot security.”  Stefanik ® New York is taking over for which Liz Cheney got kicked out of.

Next up are 3 clowns that were probably separated at birth.  One that I have already raked through the coals and the others who are relative newbies to Sullie Sarcasm.  The subject of 2 articles ago titled, “Morons Will Be Morons” is back.  Yep, Georgia’s Andrew Clyde.  He has company now as fellow Representative conspirators Ralph Norman ® South Carolina and Louie Gohmert ® Texas both share in Representative Clyde’s lack of memory as to the Jan. 6th insurrection.  As far as those 3 are concerned, it was just another tourist walk in the park.  Sad fact about this is that most of the Republican Party have a memory loss of that diabolical day.

Finally, TWTWTW’s story of the week.  It wasn’t so much as what was said, since it was a one sided rush of bullied words, spewed forth whilst running after her prey.  Marjorie Taylor Greene (ho-hum) ran out of the House to chase down Alexandria Ocasia-Cortez screaming her name and yelling at her about not caring for the American people and supporting terrorist groups like Antifa and Black Lives Matter.  Nope, I’m not going down that path at this time, tempting as it is.  You had to admire AOC’s reply: a simple gesture of turning on her, throwing her arms and hands up with an expression on her face as if saying, “What?”  What a great way to end a potential confrontation.  Naturally, there were plenty of media to witness this and they certainly  jumped on it.  Later on during an interview, AOC was quoted, “I was a bartender at one time and MTG is the type of disorderly drunk I used to throw out all the time.”  Well, better her than me, however, it would be real prime if I just had one day at ‘em!  Stay tuned…..!

The McGrinch That Stole Your Stimulus

I disagreed with my wife just now, something that I never do, since the repercussions are quite disturbing.  Here’s what went down.  She stated that Mitch McConnell can’t stoop any lower into the depravity he wallows in.  I stood tall, took a deep breath, looked her right in the eye and spewed out “Yes he can!”  It was a moment frozen in time and then she smiled.   No systematic repercussions followed.  Whew!  Now, as a politician, he has a certain inalienable right to say one thing and mean another, or to talk out of two sides of his mouth, but Mitcheroo, has the extraneous ability to talk out of two faces.  Unfortunately, those two faces resemble both Scrooge and The Grinch.  Isn’t it easy for someone with a net worth of $22,200,000 to stand at a podium in the hallowed halls of Congress and object to raising the stimulus check amount from $600.00 to $2,000.00?  Then there’s Pat Toomey, R-Pennsylvania, who said there are too many citize...

Uncommon Failure

Okay, I’ll let you all be the judge and jury of the following statement that I came across that was buried in the dark corners of the internet where I usually find my strange and highly unusual articles of confoundation.  This is a Los Angeles Times letter to the editor ( https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2021-04-12/huntington-beach-ku-klux-klan ) about the “burb” of Huntington Beach.  Headline: “Common ground with the Ku Klux Klan?  Huntington Beach has a problem.”  The letter starts off with, “As Huntington Beach was preparing for a Ku Klux Klan rally and, in response, a Black Lives Matter counter protest, police department spokesman Lt. Brian Smith said,” now here’s the kicker, “We hope that they can utilize events like this as a means to find the common ground and work together for the common goal.”  ???  I thought I would substitute the usual WTF that usually follows an incredulous statement like that with question marks.  I never pass up the ...

The New Cult

Past cult leaders the likes of Sun Myung Moon, David Koresh and Jim Jones, exemplary role models for “Moonies”, “Davidians” and “Peoples Templers” are said to have had a charismatic  gift of gab and were able to ensnarl a whole slew of followers into their realm.  They, of course, have since passed into the great beyond.  Moon was 92 when he died of pneumonia, Korish was 33 when he and his zealots died with guns blazing and Jones 47, died with his lemmings from a bad dose of kool-aid.  There was a rumor going around that his last words were, “Hey, did someone spike this stuff!”   Like Stalin, Hitler and Atilla the Hun, these folks had the innate ability to sway the masses.  To this day, I still can’t figure out how.  I was more enamored with garden slugs than those “coots.”  Nowadays, we have a new malady in our midst, an anomaly if you will, who not only doesn’t have a gift of gab, but cannot even enunciate words correctly, uses alternative facts...
