Shouldn’t the GOP Change Their Mascot to a Hippo?
Evenin’ folks!
I’ve been away from the saloon for a bit. The ol’ bones let me know that I ain’t a spring chicken anymore. I come back and see where Sen. John Ensign (R, NV) has done been caught storin’ his sausage in somebody else’s icebox, Sen. Norm Coleman (R, MN) still ain’t admitted defeat and Bill O’Reilly (R, ASSHOLE) is callin’ other folks unbending and hardheaded.
I guess them right wing pundits were right, Obama ain’t brought change we can believe in. The Republican hypocrites ain’t changed a lick. I first remember catchin’ on to their double talkin’ ways when Ronnie Ray-Gun said “We don’t negotiate with terrorists”. What he really was sayin’ was just let Ollie North handle that stuff ’cause he’s a team player.
Let me show ya’ll just a few of the examples.
Read my Lips, No new taxes! (Bush 41)
- Bush eventually agreed to a compromise with Congressional Democrats to raise several taxes as part of a 1990 budget agreement. This reversal caused great controversy, especially in the more conservative wing of the Republican Party.[1]
A little toe tappin’ in Minnesota (Larry Craig)
- “The American people already know that Bill Clinton is a bad boy - a naughty boy. I’m going to speak out for the citizens of my state, who in the majority think that Bill Clinton is probably even a nasty, bad, naughty boy.” Hmm, Pot and kettle anyone?[1]
Newt’s Laws of Hypocrisy (Newt Gingrich)
- Shortly after his divorce from his second wife Gingrich married Callista Bisek, with whom he was conducting an extra-marital affair at approximately the same time he was leading the Congressional investigation into allegations that Bill Clinton lied under oath about his affair with Monica Lewinsky.[1]
Weapons of Mass Distraction (935 Lies)
The list is almost endless and is just beggin’ me to ask, Why the elephant? Because they supposedly never forget? I suggest the hippo. It looks like to this simple barkeep that the big mouth and all the wallowing in the mud seems more appropriate. Now that I think of it, don’t they already use Rush Limbaugh?
