Do Democrats Have a Brain????

36 Comments

In a Word -- No!

No, Sheila! They don`t have a brain. But no one cares! As long as they have lights and running water, no one gives a flipping rats patooty. We could go on, but for what purpose. Infrastructure! Toilets that flush! Lights and heat! How far we have fallen ....

Amazing isn't it, dawndawn...

The elites get to avoid taxes, while the rest of us are held to a higher standard...Daschel tried to sound so sincere, and "repentant"...it didn't wash. I didn't believe one word of his boohoo, I'm so embarrassed garbage.

Daschel, sorry pal, your face betrayed you. You aren't sorry, you were putting us on...and I for one don't believe you for a minute.

Sheila

Hey now, it is just another honest mistake, mishap, hiccup (thank you Harry Reid), bump in the road, honest mistake, etc....

And just like Geithner, Daschle is the ONLY person for the job. There is no one else.

By the way Congressman John Carter of Texas has the rocking idea with the Rangel Rule. Of course it should be called Rangel/Daschle/Geithner and whoever else is out there!

Democrats and Brain together is an Oxymoron!!!!.... Only two weeks and we have two nominees with tax probs, a Dem gov trying to sell Obama's Senate seat, 17 waivers to no lobbiests in BO's Administration, Holder at AG who aproved shady pardons for Slick Willy...talk about CULTURE OF CORRUPTION!! WOW!

Sue...right on!

Yes I saw John Carter on Fox and Friends this morning. LOOOOVE it!

Perfect idea!I vote YES! Rangel is a total loser, but then so are the latest cabinet picks...

Hey Kev...you said it!

Isn't this all dejavu? This was the Clinton/Pelosi mode of aperendi..."we will have the most ethical govenment on the face of the planet"...riiight.

This is the best the desocialists can do? It is a disgrace. Funny thing...the lovely and charming (yaaawn) Ms Maddow is mad at the One!!!Now there's an oxymoron!...:)

Sheila

YES! and the stage is set for even more comedy, BTW did ya see wwhere Joey The Ckown Bided flubbed the swearing in of Hillary??? LOLOL and HE criticized Judge Roberts!!! Now we even got the NY Times calling for Dashing Tom to withdraw!!!!

Sheila....

So, when guys like Daschle and the others say. "I'm sorry....It was a dumb mistake." How come no one asks, "Sorry you got caught ? Dumb because you didn't cover your tracks better ?"

Not to worry about jail for these guys though....Look who is heading up the Justice Dept.

Kev! LOL!

A Satuday Night Live gold mine of material! This admin is funnier than the Bush Admin ever was! It's a total joke!

Urban Ghost

No jail for these jokers, for sure...it's so nice to see such a sqweeky clean new admin, isn't it? So, is anybody really surprised? It's the dems as usual, nothing new, no change, only "hope" the we the peeps are dumb enough to swallow the fake apologies...

We're in for a long four years...and let's "hope" it's only four.

I'm ready for "change" and we're not even into the third month of this circus. Wonder who the next clown will be that's appointed?

Hurraaayyy!!!!

Daschel is OUT! He had the brains I didn't think he had! He probably didn't want his name associated with Rangel on that bill proposed by Rep John Carter!

I love it! You can't say paying taxes is critical and then not pay them...

Hope this admin gets the message citizens don't want anymore tax dodgers in the cabinet.

There is a tape of Daschel

saying tax dodgers should pay to the full extent of the law, while standing at his podium in the Senate before the peeps booted him out...me thinks he realized this didn't bode well for him not paying any fines on his delinquent taxes.

Wow...Gibbs is gettiing some surprise

questions about his boss's responsibilities in standing behind Daschel, and should he answer to the press on that...ooops is the honey moon over????

Slip slidding away from the ol' pedestal it seems...wonder if the waters are still going to recede...hmmm...;)

Sheila

I heard that while Gibbs was doing the press conference, the pres ran off to an undisclosed appointment! WTH?

Gibbs needs to get it together. The questions (hopefully) will get tougher and I think he was a little suprised by this!

Sheila

Just got this off politico - check out answers.

ANOTHER DODGE: Gibbs wouldn't directly answer whether Daschle patron Leo Hindery was ever considered for Commerce job. (1:53 p.m.)

BLAME: "We all take responsibility. The President takes responsibility," Gibbs says. (1:51 p.m.)

DOUBLE STANDARD?: Ed Henry asks why Geithner made it through but Daschle and Killefer did not. Gibbs replies that there was a process that put Geithner in his current post. (1:49 p.m.)

DODGE!: Asked if there are other nominees with tax problems, Gibbs replies: "The President's quite confident of the people he's chosen to serve in government." (1:47 p.m.)

Sue...LOL

Yeah after they get confirmed and sworn in the new cabinet members will suddenly change their ways and be sqweeeeky clean...if you believe that I have a bridge I'd like to sell you...

These people think they can cheat and steal and get away with it like their predecessor Slick Willie did ...ooops.

DC isn't Chicago it seems...the press is going to be a little tougher there? Maybe? Golly! That was unexpected!

Sue...the bad news

is we are in a time of war with an admin that is learning on the job...to use Hillary the candidate's words...we are in a dangerous position.

And Sue...

"Changing the culture in Washington" for these guys means, changing from the routine of putting cheating Republicans behind bars (where they should be, btw) to putting the cheaters in the cabinet of the new admin...that's the change, unless the nominee withdraws like Dachel did...

Sheila - Part II

GRILLED: Gibbs keeps getting quizzed about vetting - "These are valid questions Robert" - but says the admin didn't move too fast and doesn't see need to slow down.
He said there will be news soon on CEO compensation. (2:15 p.m.)

HEY, LOOK OVER HERE: Gibbs says Obama is heading to a local classroom today. (2:06 p.m.)

ONE MORE TIME: Gibbs touts "the strongest ethics and accountability rules of any administration in the history of this country." (2:03 p.m.)

Too funny!

Sheila

I will be back to respond. I am off to stimulat the economy and go shopping!

Daschel is protecting his own patuti

not the president's...he realized he was looking like a total dolt...

he thought he had it made back home, under the radar while cheating...but now the light is shining on his actions...oooh...Mr elitist is looking bad...and he didn't like it...

Sue! Way to shop!

Sounds like a Macy's add...good for you for stimulating the economy!!!!Cool!

Oh No...Daschel's old TV add got dug up!

He was touted for driving his old pontiac to the capitol inhis campaign add...oh goodness...he should have stayed home,while he was ahead...he is now SNL material for posterity...;)

Have fun shopping, Sue! See ya later!

You don't need a brain

If you're a democrat, you don't need a brain, you just need to do the bidding of your "Betters" in office, and pay proper obeisance to Dear Leader Obama who will lead us all to the land of milk and honey.

Seig Hei.... er I mean Yes We Can!

See/ it's not so hard. :op

Sheila

I saw the commercial. Too funny!

I missed some of Hannity, so I am waiting for the rerun!

JPS...

Someone once said it's easy being a democrat...maybe they've fooled everyone once too many times...this could be interesting, actually. We could be seeing the DNC swan song...;)

Sue...it's rather pitiful

poor Daschel...to be made a fool for the whole world to see...

Sheila

That car was really smoking! Al Gore is probably so upset!

Sue...good ol' Al...

is going to make millions off of his global warming hoax...

yeah, bet he wasn't happy with Daschel's old jalopy...however the jets that Al flits around in polute more than that old clunker...:)

Sheila

I am sure Al did "gasp" and emit some emissions when seeing that commercial! :)

I still find it so hard that Al Gore has a following and people fall all over this guy. He is not even a scientist. Ugh!

Sadly Sue...

Seems people are so gullible they will believe anything...

Some democrats actually do have brains

most decide not to use them.

Others do and are converted to conservatism. God bless them.

Eric...

The smartest dems become conservatives...;) actually Michael Medved is a good example of that!

Good one Eric!

Brains???

They don't need no stinkin brains!

They care!!!

Sandra...LOL

Feelings...nothing more than feelings...

Oh, it is sooooo...

...hard to resist commenting on this question...and my will power just broke down!

Remember the Scarecrow from Oz?
Scarecrow played by Democrats.
Wizard played by The One.

Wizard of Oz: They have one thing you haven't got: a diploma. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitartus Committiartum E Pluribus Unum, I hereby confer upon you the honorary degree of ThD.
Scarecrow: ThD?
Wizard of Oz: That's... Doctor of Thinkology.

Now please, Sheila, don't ask such obvious questions in the future...my diaphragm can't stand the strain of laughing so hard! (I'm getting too old...!)
