What a smelly truckload of diseased dickbags...

The New Yorker has been on a roll lately.

I've been visiting DU for quite a while and I really enjoy this site. I work with a lot of RWNs (Tx you know) and I like having facts to dispute their stupid talking points.

lying. Remember the polls and fox news telling everyone Obama was going to lose big. See how that went. I found you just can't reason with stupid.

Pointless exercise.

moved to the sidelines then things turn blue your lovely state might have a chance.

Although I have noticed my rethug coworkers have toned down their rhetoric a bit. The two worst have very sick husbands who no longer work, but still need health insurance. Both are cancer survivors (one is a triple cancer survivor) and they've recently stopped complaining about the ACA.

Has the New Yorker stolen some writers from the Onion?

At the bottom, the column is humor, but I really had to look for it. The article was too close to being totally credible.

to detect sarcasm during the Bush era.

Same thing.

"we became rethugs to shut down government"? and then, assholes, you STILL expect to get paid your unearned salaries and perks, yes? because THAT, after all, living off the govt teat, is why you REALLLLY became ignorant, hate-filled, reichwing thugs.

okay, I get that it was humour, but, sadly, that is probably exactly the mindset of some of those chowder brains who got elected. it is sad that it is hard to tell an Onion or other article from the actual commentary anymore.

But don't worry.
They've got 2 years to bring the United States to it's knees.

I can just image the joy when the value of everyone's savings value drops through the floor and people start dying of starvation in the street.
What more could an elected representative of the people want!

You had me going there for awhile.

that most of the Republicans whom are SERIOUSLY advocating for the government to stop functioning are really talking about putting themselves out of a job. I mean, who do they think "GOVERNMENT" is?


I'm serious. If they manage to shutdown the government, I want everybody whom caused it to happen to be stripped of their paychecks and benefits for as long as it's shut down and they won't be allowed to get it back later. In the real world, if you don't do your job and your business goes under, you're SOL. And we the people need to stop giving them the keys to the car that they keep purposely driving into a ditch. These a**holes need to get a serious dose of reality and I really do hope they get it.........soon.

satire alert

I live in Kentucky, and it is pretty discouraging to have to put up with this guy and my Rep, who's first bill was to repeal the law making schools a no gun zone. Way to go KY.

Who needs the Onion when you have Republicans.

You don't get it. Learn how to read.

I guess you are better than me. Good for you.

Just askin' .

Borowitz! Yes! I love that man!

Typical behavior from the tea-publican party. Complain that govt. doesn't work and that govt. is the problem and then do their best to make sure that they are right. What a bunch of freaking A-holes, I can't believe we have a group of people in this country so brain washed by Faux news they can't figure this out.
