Whenever William Rivers Pitt makes one of his many prognostications, you can bet it will be sure to be wrong. This first came to my attention post-election 2004 when Pitt frequently dispensed with his "insider" information that a certain legal paper was about to be filed in the courthouse of some obscure Ohio county that was sure to overturn the election results. And of course, there was that world famous statement about Karl Rove having already been indicted on May 12, 2006. And if you're wondering what happened to that prediction, then just wait 24 business hours. Most recently, Pitt was in a state of jubilation over Judd Gregg leaving the Senate to become Obama's Commerce secretary because it would mean another Democrat senator. It didn't happen for two reasons. One, the governor of New Hampshire agreed to name a Republican to the senate if Gregg left and, two, because as we learned today, Judd Gregg has decided to remain in the senate. Pitt continues to maintain his track record for perfect error as you can see in his jubilant DUmmie THREAD of January 30 titled, "JUDD GREGG FOR COMMERCE SECRETARY!!!!" So let us now join Pied Piper Pitt as he celebrates the departure of Judd Gregg from the Senate in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, recommending that Bukowski's brew its own Pied Piper beer, is in the [brackets]:
JUDD GREGG FOR COMMERCE SECRETARY!!!!
[Freudenschade, baby!]
If selected and confirmed, Gregg would be the second Republican in Obama's cabinet. Governor John Lynch, a Democrat, would pick Gregg's replacement.
...and the Senate Democratic majority would reach 60. Filibuster done
Gregg for Commerce, yo.
[Yo! Yo! Yo! ...Oh No!!!]
Not such good news if Lynch appoints a seat-warmer Repub.
[Stated Pitt's mumsy, Raven, who has a getaway cabin in New Hampshire for the Pittster to hide out from rightwingers who want to send him to a Walmart detention center.]
You're there. You think he will?
[Asks her little Sonny Boy.]
I honestly don't know. It is hard to read Lynch, he's a strange guy...I think Obama will be calling the shots on this one. Lynch will do what he's told...maybe!
[Maybe you should have spent your time trying to read Judd Gregg, mumsy.]
Who do you have there that would be considered? I know nothing about your state's politics. Any powerful progressive democrats?
[Progressive democrats meaning socialists of course.]
Paul Hodes or Carol Shea Porter. Both dem congresspeople. I think Hodes was thinking about running against Gregg in 2010. Not sure about Porter.
[Plus you weren't even sure about Judd, mumsy dearest.]
Will the Commerce Dept be marginalized in the new administration? As compared to what the Repugs did with the department.
[Asked a DUmmie just before the Obamites announce the removal of the census folks from Commerce to the White House.]
I remember Obama saying it was important for international trade, but not hyping it on the domestic scene, which is why I think he chose Richardson for his international background.
[Huevos Rancheros!]
Damned near a checkmate move, if you look at it closely.
[Pitt's check just got mated.]
Would Charlie Brown rather have Lucy hold the football or not??
[This was a case of Charlie Brown walking home and leaving Lucy to hold that football all night.]
Surely Obama has already calculated & dealt with this scenario.
[All carefully planned in advance. Pied Piper Pitt has assured us this is a perfect plan which can't fail.]
It's not really flying off the shelves here, like other parts of the country.
Time was when you could cut government spending with a pairing knife. Now, we need one of those big-ass cleavers, or a Sawzall.
Or, a RINO Senator exposing a novice President playing the fiddle like an opossom...
In any event, it gives the Obama administration another black eye for its cabinet selection process (not to mention its politicizing an essential government function). Opossums being nocturnal marsupials, they're a fitting metaphor for Obama's continually being in the dark...
Not only creepy, but surreal. What, these two online political animals never talk local politics together? He doesn't know who in NH may be a pick to replace Gregg? It's as if they have no life together outside DU. Kinda weird...
Boy, now we know who dozed thru a class or two... yo This is Standard Chick-car-go speak. Ask any Democrat/Socialist alderman.
I suspect it is the only way they communicate. I know that at times she has called him out for excessive profanity and public drunkenness.
Our resident Jungian analyst, franksolich, of course can offer more insight into the relationship between the Pied Piper and the carpetbagging maternal ancestress as he did in a recent DUmmie Alert than PJ, Charles or I could ever do.
DUnno why not. Yuengling is great beer. Oldest brewery in the country.
That really is strange being that PA is next door to you.
Is this Mtner77 person a troll?
Older, bud weiser?
Their Black and Tan was the only one I cared for, but I''m an ale kind of guy.
Try a Sam Adams Triple Bock if you ever get the chance. Pricy, but well worth it. It goes VERY well with a free prime rib dinner !!!
WILL PITT FOR COMEDY SECRETARY!!!!
And the second one who pays his taxes.
There, fixed it.
Admit it, you read the DUmmie FUnnies, don't you?
There's some bad blood going on there. That's all I can figure. We have relatives that bring us Yuengling and we go to the drugstore and buy them this vile stuff called Arbor Mist, which as near as I can figure is a mix of Kool-Aide and cheap Zinfandel.
I do happen to be enjoying a Yuengling at the moment. Very tasty. But those Reading pretzels just complete the meal. I need to find a source for those Reading pretzels.
About as well as he's handled every other scenario so far, which is to say, NOT VERY!
LOL
I try to live my life that way. Helps keep the blood pressure down. LOL
