This Is Coonin and We Shall Call It So Comment of the Week

Artur Davis continues his “I’m gonna git y’all back” tour, this time going so far as to share a stage with James O’Keefe. His poor Mama must stay at the altar praying for her wayward child.

What is is that these people get for cooning? Clean rags? A fresh bowl of porridge? A cot made out of feathers instead of pine needles? What is it? I know you can make some good money being a black repug. But the money can’t be good enough to justify acting like massa’s overseer.

“Jones: Well, that means we’re not going to just vote and hope like we did last time.”

I just have to add. Did this clown think or even assume that PBO said to hope and vote for him and everything will fall into place? Did not PBO insist that change is/was always hard, and that he needed us to work with him? Jones has been smelling himself a bit long, and right now he should feel the need for a bath. Preferably with Lysol. And to end, “YES WE ARE” in love with PBO. Still!!

You And Your Dancing Horses Can Have A Seat Comments of the Week

People whose hobby is paying tens of thousands for horses to learn how to do a two step jig for competition, smoosh up their nose and insult 7-Eleven and a small bakery over cookies being served to them by their host, and whose idea of a tight budget means “not entertaining” – really shouldn’t be telling the rest of us “its our turn.”

lamh, I saw your link to the ABC interview with Diane Sawyer and the Romneys and all I have to say is that God doesn’t like ugly.

And I’ll leave it at that.

ETA: No, I couldn’t leave it at that because Ann Romney’s parting words are ringing in my ears. “It’s our time now.” Why is it your time, Anne? What will you do that hasn’t been done? Because were I’m sitting, Barack Obama kept this country from a depression, saved the midwest and the auto industry, brought back manufacturing for the first time in a generation, revived America’s prestige in the world, and killed Bin Laden!

And no, you can’t say because we’re white. Through we know, it’s what you meant.

I actually hate the Romneys. There is no redeeming quality to them, worse than Palin.

They embody every stereotype of snotty, entitled rich person. Just brats.

They are so entitled they think its their turn. How fucking amazing is that shit… wow the privilege that smells from that.

And Ann Romney thinks she cute… she is exactly like Miss Ann as so many here have stated. She is that lady who would like on any person to get ahead. She is already imagining herself has the next first lady. They really believe, this is their best chance to win since they are running against the black guy.

No CLASS…..EEEEEEEEWWWW

The Romney’s are too impressed with themselves. They must be eating the love from the beltway insiders. Jeez… ASSHOLES the two of them. Bottomfeeders.

He offers NO POLICY, JUST ATTACKS!!! THAT’S IT…

I will do everything in my power to make sure they lose. They must really be convinced that the combination of voter suppression laws, rove pacs and tons of pacs out there, MSM [ALL OF THEM ARE FOX — NO EXCEPTION], Newspapers and Huffington Post — they will pull it off.

Digusting assholes

rant off.

GOVCHRIS1988, Wednesday Evening Thread

HO-LY SHIT!!!!!! Ok, fuck the polls, newsmedia pundits, everyone etc. Look at Mitt. This reminds me of the debate between Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush and H. Ross Perot. I mean, my God if he checked his watch, I wouldn’t be surprised. He is bad at voter outreach. He never really did this in Massachusetts, and you can tell. Which is why I am so happy that Barack Obama has rallies and town hall meetings with throngs of people. He really is in tune with people and has a sense of knowing a persons problems. Mitt Romney doesn’t have that and judging by his past campaigns, Mitt Romney CANNOT learn that.

This is why polls and bullshit media punditry be damned, Mitt Romney is not going to get elected President of the United States. I just don’t see it. I saw it a little with John McCain……up until he chose Moosewoman as his VP. I saw it with GW Bush even. He played dumb hick you could relate to really well, rich lifestyle be damned. Reagan possessed it with his acting chops, Clinton possessed it well and when his ego is tempered, still can utilize it. Come on, can any of you name one President in the last thirty years that had that personality as witnessed above? Can you name a President that was either defeated or a presidential challenger defeated that was as compassionate, attentive, and dynamic as Barack Obama? Me neither.

I just don’t see Mitt Romney winning. I’m saying this not as a partisan voter, but as a viewer of sorts. There is no story about him which makes people say, “He’s my choice.” He grew up in a rich, political family. He never lived really on his own without any aid from his parents. He never had to worry about unpaid bills or whether his kids would be able to go to the best schools or whether he would have a job. He never worried about whether or not the next paycheck would be in or whether or not he could feed his family. None of that. The one signature accomplishment from his years as governor of Massachusetts he can’t use because his opponent has already passed an almost carbon copy of it nationally while his own party wants to get rid of it. His only job has been at Bain, where he decimated the lives of many while fattening the pockets of his shareholders as well as himself. There is just no story.

He has no purpose or rallying cry aside from, “You guys hate him, so do I so vote for me.” There is absolutely NOTHING! No one can tell us why he should be President. No damn one. Really, I don’t even think he knows. I don’t want people to think that I am being cocky, complacent or unknowing of the challenges and obstacles set upon us that lie ahead, but just look at that video above and tell me, Why is he their nominee and why would we want him as President of the United States? Because right now, I really don’t see it.

– – -In Pittsburgh, they’re calling it “CookieGate,” but fair warning, it’s not exactly a serious political scandal.
————————-

Actually it is, or should be.

This is part of a pattern of Mitt Romney not being able to care about or relate to regular people.

You don’t insult somebody’s cooking. Dems fighting words.

I don’t care if the cookies looked and tasted like dog poo, you say “These are tasty” and keep it moving.

Whether she baked them or bought them at 7-11, she took the time to make them or spent her hard earned money buying them for YOU. The LEAST you could do is be appreciative.

Can you imagine President Obama dismissing somebody’s cookies or cake? I can’t.

I can’t even imagine George W. Bush straight dissing somebody’s cookies to their face. He might be caught on camera spitting the cookie out but I don’t even he would tell somebody to their face “Aw you ain’t make these cookies, you know they look like some crappy 7-11 cookies.”

And that shows how much Mitt Romney is in the “real world” anyway, because 7-11 cookies are pretty tasty. But I guess if you have personal pastry chefs baking your cookies 7-11 cookies just aren’t up to your standards.

Camille, Wednesday Evening Thread

And as long as Mitt Romney insists on mimicking and ripping off every single one of President Obama’s natural and authentic moves and expired and tossed out playbook from 2008, Romney will continue to flail and look exactly like the silly, empty narcissistic fool he actually is.

This person Mitt Romney, with his substantial wealth, who has been doing absolutely nothing else but run for president since 2006, has still not been able to come up with a focused, cohesive plan, structure and style that is uniquely his—-and has to embarrassingly wing it and rely solely on President Obama not just for cues, but his entire strategy — that should give every American pause.

The man has no clue and no plan besides being motivated by envy and greed. He begrudges President Obama the perks of the job.

Romney is petty, envious, sad sack and only further showed his titled clenched, desperate for a colonic butt when he bitched and whined about President Obama” flying about in Air Force One, surrounded by admiring believers..”

What a small, small, anal retentive asshole Romney is.

So desperate to fly on Air force one, be the first Mormon president and wipe out the middle class while sweetening the pot for his sponsors and benefactors.

I won’t be surprised if Romney has signed a promise to the Republican establishment that he’ll do just one term, if they’ll get him elected.

The man is that desperate and that hollow—it’s all about him and his shallow desires that have absolutely nothing to do with the American people or the hard work of being President —

Pathetic!

The election comes down to “Do you want a white dude in the White House badly enough to risk economic downfall, reversal of women’s rights and open season on minorities?”

Kerry Pickett got up early to fix her lunch. Two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches an apple and a pop tart. She didn’t get to eat any of it. Because at about the three minute mark the gentleman on the other side of the table eyed her lunch box and then claimed it for his own.
