Totally Not Terrorists

The Republicans aren’t terrorists. They’re just kidnappers and hostage takers.

Mitch McConnell:

“I think some of our members may have thought the default issue was a hostage you might take a chance at shooting,” he said. “Most of us didn’t think that. What we did learn is this — it’s a hostage that’s worth ransoming. And it focuses the Congress on something that must be done.”

I know! They’re terrorists in the classic 1980s Die Hard “Hans” way.

    If the Democrats have one thing going for them, it’s that their ad writers won’t run short of material.

    Rep. Pete Sessions:

    “Insurgency, we understand perhaps a little bit more because of the Taliban,” Sessions said during a meeting yesterday with Hotline editors. “And that is that they went about systematically understanding how to disrupt and change a person’s entire processes. And these Taliban — I’m not trying to say the Republican Party is the Taliban. No, that’s not what we’re saying. I’m saying an example of how you go about [sic] is to change a person from their messaging to their operations to their frontline message. And we need to understand that insurgency may be required when the other side, the House leadership, does not follow the same commands, which we entered the game with.” [...]

    If it walks like a terrorist and talks like a…

    “If this Congress keeps going the way it is, people are going to start looking for second amendment remedies…”

    “Lock and Load!!!”

    What were we thinking?

    Totally not terrorists.

    There’s our meme. Right there. Corporate Terrorists.

    If tea baggers can run around like raging retards and win by screaming and holding a gun to our heads…

    …then why the hell aren’t we holding Wall Street hostage? Remember how fuckin’ pissed off people were about the AIG bonuses? Remember how students in England were protesting for rising intuition fees?

    They took their anger out on the streets, wrecking shit up (or the threat of wrecking it) for everyone to see their message since it seems that’s the ONLY WAY those above us will listen to: the sound of crushing PROPERTY is more audible to their ears than the suffering of people.

    The lost of monetary values has proven to be more of an issue than human lives.

    It’s time to show it. Scream this shit out all the way to the elections. Keep repeating that they’ve promised us jobs and Rep. Judy Biggert (R-Il) told us to shut the hell up about jobs. Bring her into every conversation about jobs.

    Keep repeating every single shit they championed themselves on and compare what they’ve done now. Tear down their lionized self-images.

    He’s proud of himself (themselves).

    Who should be on the voted out of office next year list first?

    McConnell, Boehner, or Cantor?

    How many times do I have to stress the fact that the GOP are VILLAINS?

    I know I’ve must have posted it at least 50 times since 2008.

    Think of every “bad guy” from whichever storybook, movie, cartoon, bad dream etc. Think about how they conduct themselves, and what motivates them.

    Now apply it to Republicons for the last thirty-to-forty years.

    THEY ARE VILLAINS!

    Make no mistake, I am very serious.

    It’s our system that allows them to play innocent every once and a while, but overall, they’re proud of looking to get ahead in any way, shape, or form no matter who it hurts.

    That’s is the root of villainy.

    Truly, the only reason why this political party still exists is to protect those who seek to undermine the country’s underlying principles in some insidious way, while taking advantage of those that simply mean to live a comfortable life.

    It is in every act they commit.

    It can no longer be denied.

    They’re cheaters and scoundrels. Plain and simple.

    This is not a message spurred by frustration. It is a reasonable assessment of the predicament we find ourselves in.

    With that said, McConnell’s a weasel that hid behind Reid for going on two weeks after he proposed shirking his duties thinking it would make the President look irresponsible for being responsible. To even try to wrap your head around the stupidity running rampant in the GOP is a waste of time and energy. It take natural skill to be that craven, yet malicious.

    Never mind any of the shit Cons talk. They showed anyone that cares where their loyalties lie, and it is not with the American people. The scum they answer to may, in fact, be American citizens, but they have no love for America, just like, say, Galactus has no love for the planets he eats.

    Villains!
