"Jean Schmidt DEMANDS APOLOGY For Cake Incident"
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 01:30 AM by Bluebear
(Background: Each year, the group names one lawmaker for its annual Marie Antoinette "Let Them Eat Cake" award, a dubious honor intended to poke fun at the politician who "displays the most blithe ignorance of the plight of innocent taxpayers.)

====

Congresswoman Jean Schmidt is upset with some of her political opponents for slicing up a cake made to look like her.

State Representative Tom Brinkman cut the head off the Schmidt-cake at a meeting of COAST, an anti-tax group he founded.

Bob McEwen, Schmidt's opponent in the Second District Republican congressional primary was also in attendance.

Both say they will not apologize for their actions.

9. Well, just look at her picture there.
The answer in her case is a resounding "YES!" She's having a tantrum and she's obviously had countless others over the years. They've left grooves all over her face, she does it so often.

I laughed, but thought in the back of my head, nothing would surprise with these bunch of assholes. We've come to a sad and sorry juncture in our history and we'd better wake up real fucking fast or else our entire way of life will be gone and we'll have nobody to blame but ourselves!

27. Well, still gotta laugh...
... that brings attention to the problem, too.

Maybe it's time to suggest that Jean Schmidt introduce a pastry-based initiative in Congress, making it illegal to eat effigies of Congress critters. :)

Who knows, she might be crazy enough to do just that.

42. This Needs to be the Dems Mantra
We need to stress over and over again that the Repukes are nothing but a bunch of "whining, spoiled little pu$$ies"!

They are not "tough on defense"

They are not "tough on terrorism" (The most devastating terror attack in our nation's history happened on THEIR watch.

They are not "tough on spending"

They are not "tough on accountability in government"

They are not "tough on crime"

They are not "tough on protecting American interests"

They are not "tough on protecting our environment"

They are not "tough on energy conservation"

The ONLY thing they happen to be good at is runing their mouths!!

They are nothing but the school-yard bully that cowers when you stand up to them.

T-H-E-Y

A-R-E

C-O-W-A-R-D-S!!!!!

33. Hey, it's damned funny, but Tom Brinkman is worse than Jean.
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 04:50 AM by VolcanoJen
As hard as it may seem, there is someone out there even creepier than Jean.

Tom "I Like Donuts" Brinkman wants Ohio to lead the charge to overturn Roe v. Wade. Not that Jean doesn't, mind you. It's just kind of what we're stuck with down here in the OH-2.

Bill seeks abortion's end in Ohio

Still, I think it's festive when Republicans make fun of each other. :D

40. Apologize to Jean? How about an apology to the baker?
After making a cake that looked like Mean Jean a person would need psychotherapy and drugs.

43. Right-Wing Cannibalism


I'd like to congradulate Ohio Republicans for discovering the Circular Firing Squad, something us folks to the left of Ghengis Khan are well acquainted with.

COAST held it's 2006 Membership drive fundraiser featuring Congressman Steve Chabot on Monday February 13, 2006 at the Watson Brothers Brewhouse. Many politicians and concernced citizens came out to support COAST.

Chris Finney announced the winner of the 2005 "Marie Antionette Let 'Em Eat Cake" Award, given to the elected official who most blatantly demonstrated his or her lack of empathy for the plight of beleaguered over-taxed payers of Cincinnati and Hamilton County.

http://www.gocoast.org/News/news2006_0213.html

Look over this COAST thing... another RW "tax cuts (for us) uber alles" group.

And poor Jeannie isn't toeing the line enough for them. Oh, boo hoo :nopity:

But yes they are edible. You take in a photo to the baker and they make some kind of laser frosting duplicate of the photo. :)
