The APOLLO astronauts. Either Ms Less is privy to some really well kept secrets about our missions to Mars, or she's most single biggest idiot in all of Congress.

Quote:Like many of his Republican colleagues, California Congressman Devin Nunes does not support the Affordable Care Act, so-called Obamacare. Unlike many Republicans, Nunes is publicly criticizing some of his colleagues, calling them "lemmings with suicide vests" earlier this week. When Nunes first started hearing of the strategy to shutdown the government in order to defund Obamacare, he did the math, and thought it couldn't be done. Republicans didn't have the 67 Senate votes needed to override a veto from the White House. "It's just a matter of math. It was a silly strategy from the beginning," said Nunes. The resulting government shutdown, said Nunes, is bad for the Republican party. "It's crazy. I don't understand the whole point, the whole strategy. Most Americans don't understand it," said Nunes. The California Republican said a small group of lawmakers, what he calls "the lemming caucus," have been blocking GOP House leadership for three years. "It's guys who meet privately. They're always conspiring. It's mostly just about power. And it's just gotten us nowhere," said Nunes. If that is the case, then why hasn't Nunes, or the 200 fellow Republicans he said agrees with him, been more aggressive? "You have to vote on what's in front of you," said Nunes. If Republican lawmakers want to vote against bills GOP leadership bring to the House floor, "and start bringing down rules ... you're talking about doing the same thing that got us in this mess in the first place." gop-congressman-on-shutdown-crazy-house-gop-pushed-a-silly-strategy-from-the-beginning

Quote:Rep. Reid Ribble (R-Wis.) took a shot at a Republican colleague during an interview with MSNBC's Chris Hayes on Monday. Hayes brought Ribble on to discuss the continuing resolution to fund the government, the looming debt ceiling deadline and the mounting discord among Republican members of Congress since the government shutdown. "Your colleague, Congressman Yoho, said that actually breaching the debt ceiling would 'bring stability to financial markets,'" Hayes said. "Do you agree with him?" "No, not at all," Ribble responded. "I think that is just crazy talk." Hayes was referring to an Oct. 4 Washington Post interview, in which Yoho said he had no plans to vote for raising the debt limit. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/08/reid-ribble-ted-yoho_n_4061226.html

In the end, you have only a mirror to blame, shitheel - and you just can't face that, can you ? That you have been USED, rooked, played for a bitch by people who despise you and care nothing for you, cause admitting that would be admitting that some large percentage of your entire pathetic EXISTENCE is based on nothing more than your own gullibility and the cheap transparent lies used to obtain your supposed loyalty to a "cause" that benefits you not a whit, sunk cost fallacy to its eternal extreme... I'd pity you, hell, might even hate you, but in order to do that, I'd have to give a fuck ABOUT you, and I don't - you don't hate a pile of dogshit on your driveway, but you do still have to shovel it away.

And viola, here we are - because of ignorant, gullible, tyranny enabling milquetoast quislings like you, Shadenfreude is prettymuch all I got right now, and damned if I don't intend to enjoy watching you and yours get hoisted on the very pike you sharpened for others, it's no more than you fucking deserve. As for historic use of Martial Law, did you forget I was originally from BALTIMORE, asshole, a city within a State which codifies it's hatred for that scumbag monster Lincoln and his utter and complete disrespect for the Constitution into it's freaking state Anthem ? A state which planned to knock his monstrous ass off because they saw him as a greater threat than anything the Confederacy could ever provide, requiring him to bitch out, cower and crossdress while creeping through in the dead of night, only to later PROVE what a total bitch and tyrant he was by locking up our goddamn legislature for not kowtowing to his bullshit ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltimore_Plot http://www.abrahamlincolnsclassroom.org/Library/newsletter.asp?ID=108&CRLI=156 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryland,_My_Maryland And it sure didn't help that them damn scumbag Pinkertons, also hated by my ancestors for being Corporate tools, spies and strikebreakers pissing on the common at every chance, were in his court entire, which shows you what a sleaze he was - not to mention the moral dissonance of thinking it so horrible for folks to force others to pick cotton at gunpoint, but all A-OK to force folks to fight their own countrymen at gunpoint, yeah, real good logic there. See Also: NY Draft Riots, Conscription. Which is of course why the Union didn't give a shit about casualties and buried the south in bodies, side be damned, cause no one THEY cared about was taking a dirt nap. And from that poisonous fruit of empire which did not save the nation, but destroyed it, never freed a slave but made us all slaves, thralls to a Federal Empire which has all but destroyed us, came the GOP you know and love, born of a monster, birthed in the blood of martyrs, and shitting on everything good and noble in mankind since 1861 if not before. Qui Pro Quo would be sending the army to slaughter their way through every Red State a'la Sherman, raping, burning and murdering all they see. And maybe you should just shut up now, cause every time you open your mouth, dancing to my tune, you make yourself look stupider (a feat in and of itself, but not a worthy one) and harm your own cause by allowing me to beat you like a rented mule at my pleasure.
