The Bungered Brigade.
Bungered, to be taken in by an arrogant, greedy, manipulative self-serving individual, who preys on the mentally ill for their own personal monetary gain.
The rank and file repubs have been totally Bungered by a nit wit!

(37,726 posts)The GOP wants to plant a bigger idiot in the white house than George W Bush and I think they are sooo counting on Mitt to be their new Moran In Chief? I look for Mitt to pick David Addington to be his VP running mate if he doesn't give Karl Rove or Dick Armey the nod. Another Idiot rich man's son must have an alternate brain to function as the puppet in chief and I don't think Dick Cheney has a chance at VP this time, but I could be wrong?

(37,726 posts)Willard's told those old lies of his for so long that he believes them himself. The same deer in the headlights look that George W made famous is written all over Willard's "Herman Munster" like mug. Mittens would take us right on down into the shit-hole that W tried to drown us in for 8 years. Wall to wall unemployment, war and harder times for the 98%, tax breaks for the 2%. Same neocon shit, different puppet!
Edit...I don't want to see my country bungfungled again by these con men!(con, neoCon...same difference.

The Heritage Foundation has announced that David Addington, Dick Cheneys former counsel and chief of staff, has become the think tanks senior vice president and deputy chief operating officer.
snip...
Addington, who joined Heritage as vice president for domestic and economic policy studies in August 2010, will be responsible for the marketing, communications, government studies and external relations departments. He will also manage Heritages strategic operations directors.
Before his time in Cheneys office, Addington held senior positions at the CIA, the Department of Defense and the White House, as well as in the legislative branch.
Heritage has grown tremendously over our first 40 years, and has developed a reputation for both innovative policy development and innovative marketing, Feulner said in a statement. With these new organizational arrangements and the people filling these positions we have every confidence that Heritage will continue providing effective conservative leadership on public policy issues for decades ahead.

The Hidden Power
Snip
n December 18th, Colin Powell, the former Secretary of State, joined other prominent Washington figures at FedEx Field, the Redskins stadium, in a skybox belonging to the teams owner. During the game, between the Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys, Powell spoke of a recent report in the Times which revealed that President Bush, in his pursuit of terrorists, had secretly authorized the National Security Agency to eavesdrop on American citizens without first obtaining a warrant from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, as required by federal law. This requirement, which was instituted by Congress in 1978, after the Watergate scandal, was designed to protect civil liberties and curb abuses of executive power, such as Nixons secret monitoring of political opponents and the F.B.I.s eavesdropping on Martin Luther King, Jr. Nixon had claimed that as President he had the inherent authority to spy on people his Administration deemed enemies, such as the anti-Vietnam War activist Daniel Ellsberg. Both Nixon and the institution of the Presidency had paid a high price for this assumption. But, according to the Times, since 2002 the legal checks that Congress constructed to insure that no President would repeat Nixons actions had been secretly ignored.
According to someone who knows Powell, his comment about the article was terse. Its Addington, he said. He doesnt care about the Constitution. Powell was referring to David S. Addington, Vice-President Cheneys chief of staff and his longtime principal legal adviser. Powells office says that he does not recall making the statement. But his former top aide, Lawrence Wilkerson, confirms that he and Powell shared this opinion of Addington.

(37,726 posts)Since the democrats failed to bring the neocon criminals to justice, the neocon criminals will be back in power the next time a republican flunky like Mitt brings them all back from the cracks and crevices where all these inhuman cockroaches lay in wait to demolish what's left of our country.

(55,745 posts)Sen. Mike Gravel quoted H.G. Wells when reading the Pentagon Papers into the Congressional Record:
The true strength of rulers and empires lies not in armies or emotions, but in the belief of men that they are inflexibly open and truthful and legal. As soon as a government departs from that standard, it ceases to be anything more than "the gang in possession" and its days are numbered.

(37,726 posts)And so is America's days numbered if the people don't stop letting themselves be fooled by the likes of Mitt and the people who pull the unseen strings that animate these shit talking puppets, like these Bungers in waiting like, Willard and GW Bush. These two bungers get their instructions and blessings, from "a higher power alright!" like the man behind the curtain in the wizard of oz.) The Koch brothers, Dick Armey and the reich wing think tank puppeteers like Cheney and his crew of torturers, murderers and rip off artists. They're not really the "Neocons" they're the mega-CONS. And the foolish voter is their key to the kingdom.

How can so many (presumed) voters buy into this Repuke scam - and after 30 years of Reaganomics that threw their lives into the crapper?
That the Rs get even close enough to steal elections is sickening. I need a drink.

(37,726 posts)Stay away from the Kool-Aid! But the repub "Faithful" drink that all up anyway, so there shouldn't be much lying around.(no pun intended)
If the pubs don't lie, cheat and steal, then they didn't do everything that they could do to, "WIN". The means justifies the end Abu Ghraib style, in the neoCON's upside down, made up as they slither along "reality."
Where Mitt leads them they will follow, what he feeds them they will swallow. After all Mitt is a "Compassionate Man Of Gawd"...I'd like to see his marriage certificates.

(10,419 posts)4 years of Poppy Bush, 8 years of Reagan, Dog-knows how many years of Nixon/Ford, and I don't know how I've managed to avoid the rubber room.
I have voted every election since 1972 (age hint) and feel I have the right to complain my butt off (which I do to my representatives).
But I am just sick and tired of morans like Robme even being seriously considered for the White House. Agree or not with Obama, he has never once embarrassed us on the world stage like the above-mentioned idiots.
Every time Robme opens his trap I just cringe. And cringe again that there are sufficient numbers of Stupid to get him even near the White House.
(Needs another drink - not Kool-Aid - and it's before noon here!)
