Ron Paul Rumble at Republican Convention

August 30, 2012

Ron Paul Rumble at Republican Convention

Delegates pledged to Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul rode their blimp through Tampa’s storm-scoured skies only to be dissed by GOP Convention rule-making manipulations. Congressman Paul was barred from speaking at the convention just because he doesn’t back the party’s billionaire-anointed candidate, financier Mitt Romney. Oh, also because he sounds like a crazy old coot, even compared to delusional loons like Rick Santorum and Paul Ryan.

Bachmann Sees the Light

January 4, 2012

Bachmann Sees the Light
Rep. Michele “Crazy Eyes” Bachmann (R, MN-6) has seen the light in Iowa, a red stoplight. She is halting her quest for the Republican presidential nomination. Mrs. Bachmann won the Iowa Straw Poll in August by an overwhelming 152 votes, and that’s about how many people voted for her yesterday in the Iowa Caucus.

Mrs. Bachmann’s Straw Poll triumph, together with her outstanding record as a taxpayer-hounding IRS attorney, education radical, submissive wife, Tea Party loon, fundamentalist zealot, and prima diva drama queen should have given her a lock on the GOP nomination, but Iowa can be fickle.

Iowa Matters. For a Day. Every 4 Years

Tonight in Iowa, citizens will huddle in 800 little groups to determine which Republican Presidential candidate they would prefer as a dinner partner.
