I just saw this list and noticed that Mr. Stacking Bill’s 600 miles high made the Omnibus Hypocrites list;

Thune (6 earmarks, $4.3 million)

Funny, how John stomped his feet and voted against the bill yet still found time to put in his own earmarks as if he knew the thing would pass anyway. Then why did you fight it John? To put on a good showing as usual. Oh, but John’s earmarks are nothing when compared to the biggest crybaby about this bill;

McConnell (36 earmarks, $51 million)

Oh, Mitch, if it wasn’t totally obvious that you are lying sack of shit, it would surprise me. But you go on Meet the Press and say things similiar to this;

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) called the spending bill a “missed opportunity” and urged President Obama to veto it. “The bill costs far too much for a government that should be watching every dime,” he said. 

Then turn around and find your hands in the cookie jar. So if you stacked $51 million dollars worth of dimes on top of each other, how many miles would that be?

The Republicans wonder why nobody trusts them anymore. Gee, that’s a tough one.

  1. It’s almost like some of these clowns forget that the internets can find out about their shenanigans and broadcast them to the world.
    At least most of the dems (especially the prez) understand the importance of being internet savvy. The republican party seems to ignor its existance.

  2. Internet?! Try cable television! I truly think that Thune thinks that no one watches cable TV in SD only KELO.

  3. During the whole stimulus package debate I never saw Herseth or Johnson on KELO, only Mr. No, John Thune. Then he pulls this shit. Think KELO will do a story about it? Doubtful. I’m hoping at least the RCJ or the SD AP does a story about it and makes him own up to it.

  4. Oh PULEEZ. They at least voted against it, even though they had earmarks. Unlike some other GOP senators who railed against the bailouts but voted for the budget.

    The real hypocrite (and BIG FAT LIAR) is The Messiah, who said he was gonna put a stop to this stuff. But he uses the excuse that this thing originated in the Bush Administration…when that would have been a GREAT reason for vetoing it. Or at least it would have been a great opportunity to make all the ex-lawmakers in his cabinet delete their earmarks.

    And not only is The Messiah a big fat liar, but he is a WIMP — both at home and office. Everybody knows that Michelle wears the pants (when not wearing sleeveless dresses) in that household, and Nancy Pelosi is running the government. He doesn’t have the balls to stand up to either of them.

  5. Gee interloper, you’re right. And it totally absolves Thune of any blame for the bill. It’s a win-win for him.

    Toeing that party line must be getting harder and harder these days.

  6. And a lose-lose for Obama. It will come back to haunt him, in the same way that “read my lips” did with George I. The guy is a liar, and you Kool-Aid drinkers will defend him, no matter what.

  7. Yup, Interloper, I’m a Kool-aid drinking Messiah lover. Now pull your dick out of Thune’s ass and face reality.

  8. I stopped reading when I saw the term “Messiah”. If your so brain dead you can’t get beyond petty insults you heard from the mouth of Rush, then you aren’t capable of forming a thought worthy of my time.

    People like you give conservatives a bad name and I’m tired of it. We need to get beyond the childish games and actually debate the issues instead of continually attacking someone’s character. That seems to be the difference between modern Democrats and modern Republicans.

    Democrats argue about issues – and frankly I don’t agree with them quite often, but at least they don’t start hurling grade school labels at those that disagree with them.

    Republicans try to argue issues, but instead fall into a pattern of ad hominem attacks, childish insults, and name calling. They would gladly impeach a President not because of what he did, but because of the party he belongs to and they could care less about the impact to the nation.

    They use terms like “Messiah”, “Obamanation”, “Obamessiah”, “B. Hussein” and whatever other insults they can develop and they are quick to label those who oppose them as socialist, obstructionist, communist, or any other “ist” that makes them feel superior.

    I consider myself a conservative in ideals, but it will be a cold day before I would ever consider joining the GOP. They are clueless, and this is yet another example of how out of touch they really are.

  9. I said it all along, I didn’t agree with everything Obama said during the campaign, I’m a recovering Deaniac, so Obama was hard to swallow for me, but I will say this, Obama got the media coverage he did because his message was positive and the RNC’s was negative. You are right Costner, they need to start appealing to moderate conservatives with a positive message or they will die a quick death.

  10. Hey, wait a minute. The Republicans put up a candidate for President who played nice, “reached out” ‘way too much to Dems and pandered to Hispanics…just the type of guy that you guys say Republicans should morph into.

    Guess what. He lost.

  11. And Costner..how do you like the language your lib friends just used about my posts?

  12. Yeah, to prove a point, because accusing you of having gay sex with a senator is about as mature as calling our president Christ and liberals kool-aid drinkers, isn’t it?!

    As for McCain, pandering to the middle? Give me a break.

  13. I’m not the one who called Obama Christ. His own fawning supporters did that (“Jesus was a community organizer”).

    And I guess the Amnesty Act, campaign finance “reform” and a whole list of other things aren’t pandering to people other than conservatives?

    And…so you and your lib friends stoop to lowlife language to “make a point” because of what I said? Wow. You sound like Obama when he says that Bush did things worse, it’s Bush’s budget bill, so why can’t I do it too?

    Guess you are no better than you say I am.

  14. Making a comparison between you and some other delusional asshole and actually calling you a delusional asshole are different things. I can see where you might confuse the two since both make you look like an asshole in one way or another, but they are different.

  15. Huh? Sounds like Clinton trying to define the word “the.”

    Guys like you, Angry, don’t do much for your cause.

  16. And besides, my comment was directed at Costner, who decried Republican “name-calling,” etc.

  17. I’m not sure what Anrgy’s cause is – so he probably isn’t harming it.

    You on the otherhand… very transparent. All democrats are evil and Obama is the worst human on the planet right?

    Move along now – nothing to see here.

  18. I was speaking of this silly labeling of Democrats. Queen Bee Pelosi, Obamanation, B. Hussein, Messiah, etc, etc.

    I’m not talking about you calling someone else on this board a moron or them doing the same to you….that isn’t exactly the big picture.

    I’m just curious why so many GOP followers seem to act like sheep and repeat these clever catch phrases and insults. I don’t recall anyone having nicknames for Bush other than “Dubya” and that is a name he referred to himself as – it wasn’t an insult.

    Is that really the best you can do? Repeat such silly childish names as “Messiah”? I know it gets hard to not repeat what you hear on talk radio, but do yourself a favor and try to think for yourself.

  19. I’m not the one who called Obama Christ. His own fawning supporters did that (”Jesus was a community organizer”).

    No they were just calling it as they saw it.
    Personally, I think Jesus was a hippie. If he was going around today from town to town in SD, he’d be laughed out of town nearly everywhere in SD by “Christian” people.
    Think about it: long hair, beard, sandals, no money of his own, preaching about peace and loving your neighbor…
    Hippy.

  20. Hey, wait a minute. The Republicans put up a candidate for President who played nice, “reached out” ‘way too much to Dems and pandered to Hispanics…just the type of guy that you guys say Republicans should morph into.

    That was the guy he was before he won the nomination. Had he stayed that way, he’d have gotten my vote in November. Unfortunately, he decided he needed to move to the right and pander to the “Obama is the antichrist” wing of the republican party, who I think actually scared him towards the end.
    What the republicans need to morph into is something they’ve never really been, but have always claimed to be – small-government conservatives. Keep the government out of my pocket, my home (especially the bedroom), and out of my way, and you get my vote.

  21. Yeah Interloper, good reasoning on the ‘Messiah’ thing. I guess if I wear a toga and sandals people might start comparing me to Jesus.

    McCain was right about ‘Amnesty’ it has nothing to do with right or left philosophy. Wanna stop illegals from coming here and working? Stop hiring them. That means forming more unions and putting CEO’s in Federal prison for hiring them. If there is no jobs for them, they will stop coming.

    As for my language – Fuck you. This is my site and if you don’t like me calling you an assrammer, go away.

    Costner – “I’m just curious why so many GOP followers seem to act like sheep and repeat these clever catch phrases and insults.”

    Because most of them are sheep. Just think about it, what was the last original idea the GOP had that made progress for our country? The only one I can think of was Reagan ending the cold war (which never really ended). They are selfish, unoriginal, thoughtless fools. When you are constantly trying to find ways to improve your own life and wealth instead of others you will always end up with the same result; alone, miserable and in last place. Karma.

    Dude- I agree with you. When McCain first won the nomination, I said to myself, “I would never vote for a Republican president, but if McCain wins, it won’t be so bad. Boy did my mind change when November rolled around, especially when he chose Governor Moose Drool (yes, I’m name calling, blah, blah, blah.)

  22. If there is no jobs for them, they will stop coming.

    Apparently one of them was responsible for teaching you English.

    (If there ARE no jobs for them…)

    Zing! 😉

  23. I think we can all agree on that. Small government, fiscal responsibility, and common sense.

    Unfortuantely those who represent us in Washington don’t really understand the concept. I’ve had this desire to send our Senators and Congresswoman a copy of Dave Ramsey’s book. Clearly they need a refresher course.

  24. It’s easy to be loose with money when you can just print more.
    I think we should set up the national debt clock within easy sight of the Capitol building, right above a sign that says “we’re watching you”.
