Coming next, since the Benghazi circus went so well....

Mister Pierce's observations on the latest ass-backwards Repig ratfuck:

Things went so well for the Republicans in Thursday's Benghazi, Benghazi!, BENGHAZI! snipe hunt that departing Speaker John Boehner, who may just be pranking the bastards at this point, on Friday announced the members of the next Special Committee For Expanded Ratfcking. This one will look into the fictitious sale of baby parts by Planned Parenthood. Here are your dogged GOP inquisitors tasked with "investigating" "evidence" produced by phony videotapes:

Marsha Blackburn, Chairman (R-TN); Joe Pitts (R-PA); Diane Black (R-TN); Larry Bucshon (R-IN); Sean Duffy (R-WI); Andy Harris (R-MD); Vicki Hartzler (-MO); Mia Love (R-UT).

A real pack o'pips, this one. Blackburn is a thoroughgoing nut. Her Tennessee colleague, Diane Black, is no fan of the 14th Amendment, and hires people with interesting views about our African American president. Duffy's the former Real World contestant who complained that he can't make it on the nearly 200-large he gets for being a congresscritter, and who also put words in the Pope's mouth and is therefore going to hell. Bucshon has visited the shebeen before; here's another science-denying wingnut physician. He is joined on Grand Rounds in the nervous ward by Harris, another doctor who doesn't know fck-all about his day job. Mia Love is the perpetually rising Republican star from Utah, and Vicki Hartzler is just flat-out freaking amazing. She's standing tall against the Chinese, who are spying on her through her toasters. Put this bunch on TV, too, primetime. Yeah, this oughta work.

The teabagging public won't have their feeble minds changed, but there's a great middle out there that just doesn't get how bad these assholes are.

Andy Harris the jerk who had the hissy fit about not getting the Govt. insurance coverage immediately. He has now voted 61 times to repeal Obama Care. JERK. I'm sure this committee made up of women haters will be great.

We had Batshitt Bachmann up here in the northeast suburbs of the Twin Cities. Not so much a gerrymandered district - Minnesotans don't roll like that -- but one jam-packed with idjit exurban snowbillies and fundies.

I thank Princess Celestia and the FSM that for the last 55 years my district has been represented by three great liberals, Don Fraser, then Marty Sabo and now Keith Ellison.

maybe, just maybe, enough halfway normal people will finally see what an idjit she is.

Enough to finally get her out of there. A real conservative, not a batshit crazy one, might actually serve the district reasonably well.
