Shut Down

A few things for the viewing/reading pleasure of the GOP, Tea Partiers, and their supporters:

A quick reminder of how a bill becomes a law:



Jon Stewart's Rockin' Shutdown Eve:



Just watch it. Because you need to.

And Elizabeth Warren, reprimanding those who shut down the government:



A choice quote: "Hostage tactics are the last resort for those who can't win their fights through elections, can't with their fights in Congress, can't win their fights for the presidency, and can't win their fights in the courts. For this right wing minority, hostage taking is all this right wing minority has left, a last gasp for those who cannot cope with the realities of our democracy. The time has come for those legislators who cannot cope with the realities of our democracy to get out of the way..."

While I adore Senator Warren and want her to run for president, she's nicer than me. I blame the entire GOP not just the Tea Party fucks who have taken over. Because if the party had a backbone, the rest of the GOP would not let this happen. Silence means approval, motherfuckers.

...And from Esquire: The Reign of Morons is Here. "This entire article is quotable, but this is a good one: "We have elected an ungovernable collection of snake-handlers, Bible-bangers, ignorami, bagmen and outright frauds, a collection so ungovernable that it insists the nation be ungovernable, too. We have elected people to govern us who do not believe in government."

So to the fuckwads in Congress who seem to think they are fighting the good fight, who think that this is what democracy looks like, and who don't understand the checks and balances put forth by the founders of this country that they claim to so admire (but obviously know nothing about): Fuck you. Seriously, Fuck you. And to those who support them? You're fucking morons.

That is all.
