They Stole the Election

Good ole fat boy Alex Jones.  He never lets me down.  He's easier to predict than the sun rising in the morning.

Jones during a phone interview with Gun-boy Lovers of America:
"They stole the election. That’s what I’m worried about, Larry,” Jones told Pratt. “There’s so much election fraud now. They’re about to legalize the 30 million illegals. But they know this is their last shot, because America is starting to wake up.”
Stole the election? Of course the Dems stole the election. That's the only way we can win. Obama did it by sending the IRS after right wing Tea Bagger groups and by skewing the polls, and by dispatching his Black Panthers to guard the polls, and by intimidating the media to not report anything negative.  Thank you Alex Jones for being so right all the time.

Presumably, the Dems wanting to legalize 30 million illegals is so we can guarantee our future dictatorship for years to come.  It's our only shot, like Alex says.  Because we all know the only people who vote Demcoratic are non-Americans.  Wheeee!!

Rand Paul Knows There's a Memo Somewhere

Rand Paul claims he knows there's a written memo somewhere containing policy to go after "conservative groups" by the IRS.

Sure the IRS applied extra scrutiny to conservative political groups seeking 501 status.  But they applied the same extra attention to liberal groups too.  They should to all political groups.

When asked how he knew of such a memo, Randy responded:  "I don't know if that comes from a policy, but that's what's being reported in the press and reported orally. I haven't seen a policy statement, but I think we need to see that."

By "press" he means Fox News, Drudge, and Alex Jones.  And by "orally" he means within Republican circles.  Let's face it, everything else is pure liberal bias under orders by Obama to not report anything negative.  There's a village full of idiots and Randy Paul is their leader.

Congressional GOP Has Known About IRS Tea Bagger Scrutiny Since Last July

"Republicans in Congress have known that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) asked additional questions of some tea party groups seeking tax exempt status since last July, only recently raising the issue as a matter of controversy according to documents released by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform."

It's also important to mention that many liberal leaning political groups were also targeted for extra scrutiny by the IRS.  But that's okay because liberal groups hate America.

Also, one huge item that is getting over looked in this whole mess is why and how can political groups be considered "social welfare" organizations by the IRS????  They can't.  A Tea Bagger group is in no way a "social welfare" organization that should receive 501 status by the IRS.  And neither is any liberal group either.  Their sole purpose for existence is political action.  None of them should ever get a charity classification by the government, ever.

The Polls Were Skewed But It Wasn't the Dems'

Another good place to pick up my writing is at the exact same place I left off: Republicans Creating an Alternative Reality So They Can Sleep at Night.

It's the same tired story, no matter the topic.  Reality tells us one thing and Republicans completely invent a fantasy to tone it out.  There may be no greater or better example of such Republican anti-reality dwelling than the 2012 election. For years Republicans told us there was no way Obama could get re-elected. When every poll ever conducted showed Obama winning easily, Republicans invented the "skewed poll theory" to escape reality.  Fox News led the way in reporting the skewed stories.  Republicans cheered it on as they completely believed that the polls were tilted in favor of Obama and that they had exposed it to the world and had the election in the bag.

As the world knows, Obama coasted to victory.  The polls weren't skewed.  They were nearly exact.  Those who were wrong, so wrong that they looked like complete idiots, were the Republicans and their media organization for trumping such biased, unrealistic stories in the first place.  But remember, when you live in an alternate reality totally consumed with the belief you are superior to everyone else, and that everyone else hates America, you can pretty much be wrong constantly and it never really matters.  Thus we have the all new and improved GOP 2014 Polling Guidelines.  Good luck with that.

It's Called Lying

One contemplation I've noticed about stoppages in writing is where do you pick back up again?  Currently there's no shortage of political topics with all the GOP craziness trying to create a scandal for one of the most non-scandalous administrations of all time.  But where do you delve into it?  GOP staffers portraying edited email conversations as direct quotes trying to frame the administration is a perfectly good spot:
CBS NEWS: "...Republicans have claimed that the State Department under Hillary Clinton was trying to protect itself from criticism. The White House released the real e-mails late yesterday and here’s what we found when we compared them to the quotes that had been provided by Republicans.
One e-mail was written by Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes. On Friday, Republicans leaked what they said was a quote from Rhodes. “We must make sure that the talking points reflect all agency equities, including those of the State Department, and we don’t want to undermine the FBI investigation.” But it turns out, in the actual e-mail Rhodes did not mention the State Department. It read “We need to resolve this in a way that respects all the relevant equities, particularly the investigation.” Republicans also provided what they said was a quote from an e-mail written by State Department Spokesman Victoria Nuland. The Republican version notes Nuland discussing: “The penultimate point is a paragraph talking about all the previous warnings provided by the Agency (CIA) about al-Qaeda’s presence and activities of al-Qaeda.” The actual e-mail from Nuland says: the “…penultimate point could be abused by Members to beat the State Department for not paying attention to Agency warnings…” The C.I.A. agreed with the concerns raised by the State Department and revised the talking points to make them less specific than the C.I.A.’s original version, eliminating references to al-Qaeda and affiliates and earlier security warnings. There is no evidence, Scott, the White House orchestrated these changes.
Holy cow! Could it be any more blunt?

Of course, Republicans that actually this report will only chalk it up to the Liberal Media.  Most won't even see it because Fox News will never ever let such reality enter into the Fantasy World they have created.

Great Taste, Less Filling

As you can see, we have a new look.  We're not finished with it just yet.  Still have some things to add and we're not too sure if the comments are working properly.  Also, the label/category thing doesn't appear to be working either.  For the most part, though, it's taking shape just fine.

There's still a lot of work to finish so I won't bore you too much with the details.  Just expect some more changes to take shape really soon.  Thanks for reading.
