Obama in a Bubble
My Tweet of the Day on a day when it is revealed that Barack Obama spies on more people than any president, ever, in the history of the United States:
Who is this guy?
Says It All
Greg Sargent is the Washington Post‘s politics blogger. He’s privy to pretty much all the inside dirt that goes on in D.C.
He just sent my Tweet of the Day. I think he needs a good, long vacation:
Cows on the Loose!
Here are my Tweets of the Day. No politics or screamers this time, just a little something about cows and cowboys.
Poor things!
Democrats Go Wingnut
My Tweet of the Day:
Democrats actually took this wingnut conspiracy theory seriously last night and voted for it. They should have stormed out of the Capitol en masse* and held a press conference to denounce this insanity. But no, they’re sheeple…
More here: Democrats control the Senate right? Senate votes 53-46 to stop US from joining UN Arms Trade Treaty.
Republican Mindset
My Tweet of the Day from House Republican Steve Stockman:
Really? How about flowers? Clouds? Trees? Birds? Mountains? Oceans..?
Sarah Palin Gives Advice to Barack Obama
My Tweet of the Day a day late: Sarah Palin yesterday at the CPAC conference:
Republicans. They’re a laugh a minute.
Awaiting the Naming of a New Pope, From the Perspective of a Gay Man
Here’s my Tweet of the Day from my favorite gay blogger, John Aravosis of Americablog:
Not something we straight people think about.
Red Meat
Even though it’s early, here’s my Tweet of the Day.
The operative word here is “fantasy.” Obamacare isn’t going to be repealed and Paul Ryan knows. But in order to maintain his street cred with the Tea Partiers, he’s got to play this game and throw them some red meat, even though he’s wasting everyone’s time doing it.
Good Point of the Day
Ah, yeah. Who takes a vet with PTSD to a shooting range? Military guys steeped in the gun and killing culture I guess:
What a tragic case all around.
What Are You Thinking Obama?
Obama puts earned benefits “entitlements” on the table and guess what happens:
For the life of me I can’t understand why Obama isn’t protecting the big three — Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — programs which Americans love and hold dear.
Republicans Who Kiss Up to the Kochs
Republicans have never been short on hypocrisy.
My Tweet of the Day:
Will Democrats Walk Into This Republican Trap?
Check out this tweet (my Tweet of the Day) from Greg Sargent over at the Washington Post:
He’s exactly right. On March 29, 2012, Republicans passed “the Ryan Plan” which included cuts to Medicare. Then, during the summer and fall, especially after Romney picked Ryan as his VP, they ran as far away from the Ryan Plan as they could. Now they want Democrats to do their dirty work for them and propose cuts to Medicare so they can get what they want (Medicare cuts) but blame the Democrats when We the People go nuts.
Hopefully (and that’s a big hopefully) the Democrats aren’t stupid enough to fall for it. They own Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security and people love those things. If they propose serious cuts, Republicans will use it against them for decades.
Here’s Hoping the Israelis and Palestinians Enjoy Their Thanksgiving Dinner
I’m thinking my readers get the exquisite sarcasm here in my Tweet of the Day:
My Tweet of the Day
My Tweet of the Day from NBC’s Richard Engel:
Gee. I wonder where those drones came from. (Hint: USA! USA! USA!)
Think about it: Israel has nuclear bombs yet they claim the Palestinians who they’ve corralled in Gaza are a threat.
Ugh. I can’t stand it.
Donald Trump Trashes Karl Rove
More shots fired inside the Republican tent.
They don’t usually do this kind of thing in public. They’re furious.
My Tweet of the Day:
More on That Republican Bubble
This tweet is a perfect illustration of what I meant when I put this post up this morning:
