America loses another Hero

[tvashtarkatena]

Michele Bachmann, Founder of the Tea Party Caucus, HPV vaccine whistleblower, standard bearer in the war for closeted gay marriage, truth to power teller - all the more difficult because truth so often abandoned you in that quest, I thank you for all the memories. You are without equal.

She was going to lose reelection. Pretty obvious what is going on.

If only you libturds could use prose like the Onion does, you'd be not only funny but likable. ;-)

is there a right leaning equivalent to The Onion? Fox news is ridiculous but not funny. And creativity in news is not a good thing.

"but our antics are cheeky and funny - your's are cruel and tragic"

[olyclimber]

There is a whole cottage industry around librul "entertainment news humor":

 

Colbert

The Daily Show

The Onion

 

It seems like the only worthwhile reaction to Fox News and the radio shock jock thing (Limbaugh, O'Reilly, etc).

That was some good morning entertainment there, Porter.

"Bill liked his e-mails to be short, pithy, and not written by a complete moron.

 

This was a surprisingly tall order on certain days."

I watch The Factor, on average, about once every couple of weeks - whenever there's a new topic (rare - most of the shows are the same old crap - Benghazi, etc) that's kind of interesting. O'Reilly can surprise you - every once in a while he's right on the money. That's pretty far below half the time, IMO, but he's got a fair bit of influence and ya take what you can get on this planet.

You just like him 'cos he's an Irishman with a very bad temper.

 

[tvashtarkatena]

Well, that too, of course.

 

Like is not exactly the right word. It's more a cultural familiarity thing.

 

At least there's something to the man, unlike some other popular conservative darlings.

I used to blame my bad temper on being Irish (my mother is Mary Kathleen O'Hayre) until I found out through genetic testing that I am really only about 1/4 Irish and about 3/4 German, so I have no excuse.

Das ist mir scheißegal

[tvashtarkatena]

All euro trash is pulled from pretty much the same genetic bucket. Frankly, I couldn't give two shits about my heritage. My peeps headed out of Africa during a wet spell, hung out in the Middle East for a while, headed to central asia for some cold climate big game hunting, and then trudged into Europe for some neanderthal strange.

 

Same as yallz.

So the 3/4 of your wallet that's full covers the 1/4 that's empty and drunk?

[olyclimber]

Your math is off

And the Danes and other scandinoovians pillaged the shit out of all the other Euros anyway.

I dunno, Germans can be pretty ornery...

 

I married a German woman coming up on 38 years ago next month and she's a toughie. I've had occasion to piss her off a time or two and found it quite unpleasant...

I realize that, I was actually trying to be ironic. A full blooded Irish guy told me "German and Irish? Now that's a fiery mix." But I agree with Pat. If asked I usually tell folks I'm from mixed European peasant stock because I have a bit of Danish as well. Of course going back far enough we are all from east Africa.
