Well I’m home and ready to start contributin’.

Goodness, what a weekend. Daughter, soninlaw, grandkid...all went home. Drove off in...what? Yep, Billy’s car.

What a pain in the butt, the man was my husband for 25 years, he died, I want to give my car titled in his name, to my daughter.

Now I understand there’s rules and there’s rules for a reason.

But folks they had me jumping through so many hoops that I finally lost it, there on the Georgetown circle, as I parked the Jeep and walked round and round to this building to that building to this building and back.

The right hand had no idea what the left hand was doing and, as is my wont, at some point I lost it.

It involved 31 days instead of 30, nasty New Jersey types messing with my land and enough bureaucrats to fill a cruise ship and WHAT SHOULD BE GOSH DARN SIMPLE IS A BIG FREAKING ORDEal!

Ending by, heh, a big hug from my choir mate who showed up out of the air and pulled me into her arms. I looked around at the shocked faces who no doubt wondered why would anyone get near, much less hug, this crazy woman?

I did, I looked around smug as choir mate continued to hug, I told her of nasty New Jersey people, County plat people don’t know what the hell they’re doing, discrimination due to my Tea Party rank, how I was major in getting the Delaware GOP chair elected from the heathens of Sussex county....I rocked the Circle.

And I’m not even proud of it but if ever bureaucrats and bureaucracies become alive to drive us insane it’s my simple procedures to handle my husband’s affairs and how every bureaucracy has new rules, coming from where, who knows....did any of the people I ELECTED have input into these new rules?

Aw let me shut up.

God is messing with me sometimes, He’s got plans for me and who knows, it might be Rocking the Circle....it’s better than an Angelina Jolie movie.

Okay....living rent free in my head....on to actual current events and y’all shall be proud that I have, as is also my wont, kept up to date on all things scandal.

Let me catch my breath.

Anyway, if you chance to read my rant to which this is a comment for, I did not really “do” all those things I claimed to do, such as getting the Delaware GOP vice chair elected. But I took credit for it. Plus there may be some literary license.

ahem.

I just don’t know what to make of all these scandals, guys, my head is spinning.

It’s like....all that I’d been praying for suddenly came to be and I’m suspicious.

Rush Limbaugh, well you know I love Rush, but he’s just been all over the place and did you know Rush Limbaugh reads this thread?

Not that his theories are wrong but I’m not buying his theorum that the IRS intentionally “outed” itself, that this was all planned.

This IRS thing is pretty big and there’s just nothing about messing with the IRS for political gain will ever get you anywhere.

There’s a bureaucracy that needs a low profile.

Even though I’m sadly in agreement with Rush that this will not, under all circumstances, end with the media and lo-fo voters saying....”ayup....our bad, we was wrong. We thank y’all for finally waking us up.”

To that effect....you get the point.

But I know a lot about it all and watching this while messing with Sussex county I oughta get a prize.

But any damage to this administration will be minimal and I’m talking to myself as much as you might perceive I am lecturing yon reader.

she whose name called be uttered or covered in media.

She ran off Robert “Baghdad Bob” Gibbs, Rahm and Axe. No telling how many more.

But the one who suckles at her bosom is sold on her (or sold to her?)

Why are we or the GOP waiting on Fox News? Nothing is going to come of any of this unless the GOP engages the kenyan directly. Obama personally told the American people over 8 months ago that he would investigate, hold responsible, etc. He has not done that. We still don’t have the basic facts. Call him on that. Why is it so difficult for the GOP to personalize this?

We are getting tip toe loser strategy version 2.0. They are still absolutely terrified of engaging the kenyan and are relying on these flank attacks. Outside of Cruz they are a bunch of cowards.

It offends me , and I absolutely cannot believe that Fox has now signed on Dennis ( the pinhead) Kucinich as a contributing guest. He represents all that is the worst about America and he is an unapologetic anti-military pissant .
The man deserves to be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail , not put on TV as an authority talking head & Bush blamer . I was so happy to see him get voted out of politics and now he is regurgitated upon us by Fox News . Shame shame shame

Pfeiffer on ABC’s "This Week": "now that they’ve seen the emails, the Republicans owe Ambassador Rice an apology for the things they’ve said about her in the wake of the attack".

On "Face the Nation": What would be an actual real scandal in Washington would be if the president had been involved or had interfered in an IRS investigation.

Here's the new(est) strategy. Double down on Rice and IRS: Rice was accurate, and Obama intentionally is avoiding "interference" with the IRS investigation. The actual truth is: Rice is a bald faced liar, and Obama is not only incompetent, the IRS was following his wishes.

Kookcinch equating Benghazi to Bush “lying” about WMD should have him fired. There is no comparison and a liberal lie to destroy Bush. Send him to his occupier fans and not people who know the difference.

Pray for America to Wake Up

Does anyone bother hassling Fox News to get rid of that little creep?

Take a number and join the line.

I’ve been writing them about Whorealdo ever since he drew lines in the sand on live TV giving away our positions. Oh Hell, I was writing before THAT! He was one big Clinton lover back in the 1990s!

I usually watch Fox and Friends in the morning when I’m getting ready for work (S, S, & S), but when Whorealdo comes on on Friday, I turn it off!

I know that this point has probably been made somewhere but there is ONE COMMON THREAD in all of these scandals - Obama's re-election:

1) Benghazi - could not taint the story that Al Qaida was "on the run" and things were going swimmingly there...

2) IRS - attempting to dilute the teaparty's influence on the election, leaking information about Romney's contributions, harassing anyone conservative to keep their businesses and finances tied up until after the election.

3) AP - Once again, they wanted Obama to be able to "crow" about some thwarted terror attempt just before the election.... and the AP broke the story first - so it was pay-back time....

Everything - every decision, every action was within the framework of we MUST re-elect Obama.

Momto2....

....you are absolutely correct and it took your concise listing to jolt me to the truth.

It WAS all about getting Obama re-elected, wasn’t it?

Let the citizens realize this, even the lo-fo voters.

It’s the same old story ain’t it...”they came for her and I did nothing; they came for him and I did nothing; they came for me and no one was left to do anything.”

Please let American “get” this, Amen.

So 199 comments and nothing about Rumsfeld? Did he say anything of substance? With the lineup today I had expected it to be 500 or so plus the scandals...kinda counter-intuitive.
