Yesterday from the mouth of the heartless insane — via UPI:
U.S. Rep. John Boehner, the incoming House speaker, described a Democratic move Thursday to limit the extension of the Bush tax cuts as “chicken crap.”
…
“I’m trying to catch my breath so I don’t refer to this maneuver going on today as chicken crap, all right, but this is nonsense! We’re 23 months from the next election and the political games have already started trying to set up the next election,” Boehner said.
The Boner — not to be confused with The Dick — was talking shit through the hen-house hole.
Only the day before, The Boner had really stepped out to instigated some strong-armed procedures for allowing easier access for going literally into the toilet.
Speaker-to-be John Boehner announced Wednesday night that he’s ordered the Architect of the Capitol to transform space currently occupied by the Office of the Parliamentarian into a women’s restroom.
Until now, only congressmen have had a bathroom break convenient to the House floor; female members have had to trek across Statuary Hall to their loo in the Congressional Women’s Reading Room.
US peoples are in for a shit-room time the next two years as Republicans have already started their bowel-obstruction stance to bring the country down to the floor on its belly — America is already on its knees.
And beyond the tax for the super rich, but also a tax on just staying alive for the entire, whole human race: Republicans will eliminate a House panel designed to explore issues related to climate change, incoming House Speaker John Boehner announced on Wednesday, arguing that the committee is unnecessary and that its eradication would cut government waste.
“The global warming committee doesn’t need to be a separate committee,” Boehner told reporters. “We believe the Science Committee is more than capable of handling this issue, and in the process we’ll save several million dollars.”
The GOP is in reality full of chicken crap.
Never in my lifetime has it become so apparent one party in the US two-party system has vanished into a smoke-screen of total bullshit with any regard to how the country is doing, or feeling, or anything.
There is no agenda except chicken crap.
The Boner has no ethics (as witnessed by his 1995 distributing tobacco-lobby checks on the House floor) although one of his biggest concerns this coming year is the Congressional ethics apparatus itself: Yet, despite the ethics office’s strong track record, Boehner has suggested he may dismantle the office. This is not a new position for him. The GOP leadership fought vehemently against the OCE’s creation, and both Boehner and his deputy, Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), voted against it.
Twisted, ironic chicken shit.
Andrew Sullivan at The Daily Dish spelled it out real-eloquently in a post on Wednesday.
Although Sullivan was discussing the GOP in reference to gay rights, the words could be taken to mean any-freakin’-thing to do with the Republican party.
The big nugget:
What we’ve observed these past two years is a political party that knows nothing but scorched earth tactics, cannot begin to see any merits in the other party’s arguments, refuses to compromise one inch on anything, and has sought from the very beginning to do nothing but destroy the Obama presidency.
I see no other coherent message or strategy since 2008.
Just opposition to everything, zero support for a president grappling with a recession their own party did much to precipitate, and facing a fiscal crisis the GOP alone made far worse with their spending in the Bush-Cheney years.
There is not a scintilla of responsibility for their past; not a sliver of good will for a duly elected president. Worse, figures like Cantor and McCain actively seek to back foreign governments against the duly elected president of their own country, and seek to repeal the signature policy achievement of Obama’s first two years, universal healthcare.
I like ‘not a scintilla‘ and ‘not a sliver of good will‘ — nails the bastards.
And that ain’t chicken shit.
