Bad News with a silver lining
November 5, 2014 at 12:35 am
Well, it's official. The GOP has taken the Senate.
The one silver lining is now the Teabagger base will roar and be harder to contain. Cruz may even be the new House Speaker in short order. They're going to run amok and fuck everything up like they always do. After the Republicans have fucked things up for two years, it should improve Democrat chances in 2016.
Fasten your seat belts, everyone. It's going to be a bumpy ride for the next two years.

I've lost hope that there is any degree of fuck up which would be recognized as such by tea baggers or repub's.

Democrat this and Republican that. Seriously, I stay out of politics. It makes no sense and I see no results.
Where is the free government Playstations and public libraries. All I care about.
Also who is that cute black guy who is president now? I hope he is single and not married to that grinning ape anymore.

All I know, from my depressing vantage point here in Kentucky, is that we're not a post-racial country if a deeply-unpopular turtle like Mitch McConnell can comfortably defeat their opponent basically by constantly reminding everyone that Alison Grimes is basically a marxist muslim nigger herself. And, unquestionably, that's how most of the other races have gone.
It's kind of sad that the people who care most about voting in the midterms are the stupid and the wicked.

The teabaggers are incapable of accomplishing anything but kicking and screaming about nothing. Which is perfect.

Permanent gridlock.
Obama will veto everything they try.
In 2 years we get to see how much the upper 1% is willing to spend for the White House.

I only hope they don't do the whole "let's default" dance they did a year ago. That was really scary.
Other than that, I'm predicting an impeachment that will go nowhere, just like with Clinton.
Too bad low information voters couldn't remember that a whole year later.
