blogs.seattletimes.com/politicsnorthwest/2012/09/19/senate-republicans-block-murrays-1-billion-veterans-jobs-bill/I happened to be in DC yesterday and was in the Senate Gallery when Patty made her speech for this. We didn't stick around for the cloture vote because it was a foregone conclusion how it would end, but for my Irish compatriot (no, not her) it was an object lesson in just what a colossal pack of assholes the Republicans are. The saddest part is that most of these returning vets look at Patty Murray and instead of saying "This woman has done more for veterans and veterans issues than any Senator in the last three decades, and I'm damn glad she's around" they say "LIBERALZZZZZZ DERRRRP!!!!" And that pisses me off.

Meanwhile, the GOP dipshits continue to wrap themselves in the flag and beat the war drums over Iran...
It's genuinely insane.

Logic is not a four letter word, dumb, however, is.
That about all I have to say about our elected officials.

Call it controversial enough and maybe somebody will listen. After all, evolution is controversial if you say so often enough. Orwell would be laughing/cringing at GOP rhetoric these days.
