Trump and his manos pequeños go to Mexico

So Trump went to Mexico for some reason and gave one of his patented "speeches that read like a word-cloud" speeches for a group of people who I pray don't speak English. Here are a couple of highlights:

I happen to have a tremendous feeling for Mexican-Americans

Yeah. We know. we know all about your feeling for Mexican Americans. It's a lot like my feeling for sushi. It's gross, I don't know who the hell let it in here, and I wish it would go back where it came from.

I happen to have a tremendous feeling for Mexican-Americans, not only in terms of friendships, but also in terms of the tremendous numbers that I employ in the United States, and they are amazing people, amazing people.

You know, other than all the raping.

I have many friends, so many friends, and so many friends coming to Mexico, and in Mexico.

Friends! Mexico! Lots and lots of Mexico friends! Going to Mexico, coming from Mexico. . .Friends! So many of them!

Ever since George W. Bush, it's getting hard to find a Republican who can string together a coherent sentence!

                             Nope!

Nuh-unh! Try again!

  Steee-rike Three!                    

So you know that no matter what he said, his supporters were going to have to pretend that he did a  fantastic, tremendous job - really one of the best jobs - but some of these tweets. . . .

I hear Churchill had a nice turn of phrase, but Trump's immigration speech is the most magnificent speech ever given.

 You know nothing of my work!

Seriously? Better than "ask not what your country can do for you" or "I have a dream" or "was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"



Was it better than "it just doesn't matter?

I know she has to keep saying the most ridiculous things to keep in the public eye, but sheesh!

then there's Laura Ingraham

Anyone who doesn't think this wasn't Trump's finest hour is just not being honest. And Pena-Nieto came off great too.

— Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle) August 31, 2016

Oh, his finest hour? That's not saying much, considering his next finest hour was talking about his dick on stage in a debate.


Oh, and speaking of which. . . .

FOX's  resident quack psychiatrist "Doctor" Keith Ablow for some reason brought up the Trump tiny hands moment at that debate that was like a couple months ago or whatever:

“When the ‘small hands’ issue was raised during the debate—that supposedly got the Clinton campaign very excited, they thought ‘Man, he’s off his game’—he wasn’t off his game at all. Freud would have been standing up, like applauding. Standing ovation.”

You know nothing of my work!

Why would Freud supposedly have been standing and applauding?
It's been a long time since my Psych classes, but I'm pretty sure that Trump understood defensiveness masking insecurities.  I'm pretty sure Freud would have thought "Damn, I've got to get this guy on the couch. I'll make a fortune!"
Except, you know, in German.

“To be able to address such an intensely personal issue and say, ‘Listen, there’s no problem in that department,’ to me, that showed an incredible degree of psychological strength.”

The kind of psychological strength you usually only find in every single high school boy on the planet.

Oh, yeah. It's pretty big. You could ask any of the girls that I've totally had sex with. 

You don't know them, they go to a different school.

You know what would maybe show some actual psychological strength? Just coming out and saying "yeah, it's kinda small. So what? I have many other fine qualities."
Or maybe just not talking about it at all. Just ignoring Rubio's dig at his tiny hands might have showed some psychological - well, not strength, exactly, but. . . I mean it's what any normal functioning adult would do when confronted by a juvenile taunt.

Oh, man - remember normal functioning adults? I miss them!

Oh, FOX. You Have no Sense of Irony!

How nutty are you when Ann Coulter thinks you're crazy? How nutty do you have to be for Ann Freakin' Coulter to have to step in and be the voice of reason? Well, you have to be "birther crazy," apparently.





Of course, she's full of shit about a lot of things, like "I don't even know if these are conservatives pushing this." or "It's the liberal media. . .   You haven't heard that on Fox News." Especially because like three days later, Hannity had Batshit Bachmann on to say this:

Glenn Beck and Ann Coulter Might as Well Just Go Ahead and Gay-Marry Each Other!

The AFA keeps sending me things. Things like this:

Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck go AWOL in the culture war

Which is weird, because if there's one thing those two enjoy, it's a culture war. Or an actual war, as long as someone else is doing the actual fighting.

Count Ann Coulter and Glenn Beck as the latest deserters in the culture war and in the battle for sexual normalcy. They have flinched at “precisely that little point which the world and the devil....are attacking,” and so have forfeited the right to consider themselves any longer culture warriors.

So now they're going to have to consider themselves what, normal people? Cuz that ain't gonna work!

Ann Coulter is the headliner at “Homocon 2010,” a September 25 gathering of so-called gay “conservatives.”

Really "Homocon?" Is that a thing?


Um, yeah. Apparently it is:

It's apparently put on by the group "GOProud" which is an organization of gay homosexuals dedicated to supporting the party that would deny basic rights to gay homosexuals. It's kind of like a "Chickens for Colonel Sanders" sort of an outfit.

So here is what GOProud believes:

What we believe

We are Republicans and conservatives who believe in limited government, individual liberty, free markets, a strong national defense and a confident foreign policy. We believe that every individual should be equal under the law.

You know, every individual except ourselves!

GOProud’s Conservative Agenda

The so-called “gay agenda” is defined by the left through a narrow prism of legislative goals. While hate crimes and employment protections may be worthy goals, there are many other important priorities that receive little attention from the gay community. GOProud’s agenda emphasizes conservative and libertarian principles that will improve the daily lives of all Americans, but especially gay and lesbian Americans.

Really. Some may think that protecting gay folks from being beaten up and fired is maybe a worthy goal, but those people are totally gay! What's really important to the gay people is a "confident foreign policy" and "free markets!"

1 – TAX REFORM - Death tax repeal; domestic partner tax equity, and other changes to the tax code that will provide equity for gays and lesbians;

Because right now, gays and lesbians are totally getting screwed on this whole "death tax" thing. This is so much more important than hate crimes and employment protection.

2 – HEALTHCARE REFORM – Free market healthcare reform.

Okay, the "free market" is what we have now for healthcare, so I'm not sure how that would be considered reform.

4 – DON’T ASK, DON’T TELL REPEAL – Repeal of the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy.

Oh, wait. That's part of the narrow prism of the left's "gay agenda." Scratch that last one!

6 – FIGHTING GLOBAL EXTREMISTS – Standing strong against radical regimes who seek to criminalize gays and lesbians

Also, supporting conservative Republican. . . wait, something's not adding up here. Oh, that's right, we're only opposed to discrimination in the name of Allah! As long as it's done in the name of traditional family values, it's just fine with us!

So anyway, these self-loathers invited Ann Coulter to come speak at their little circle jerk and I guess she accepted, and that has apparently touched off a firestorm of ridiculous pearl-clutching outrage on the right.

Ann Coulter Dropped By WND Over GOProud Homocon Appearance

Conservative speaker Ann Coulter has been asked to step down as a keynote speaker at WorldNetDaily’s “Taking America Back National Conference”.

The conference organizers said that it was Coulter’s involvement in “HOMOCON”, an event that is put on my GOProud and represents, “gay conservatives and their allies”, that let to her being booted from the program.

The CEO of WND, Joseph Farah, had a few comments to make about the situation.
“Ultimately as a matter of principle, it would not make sense for us to have Ann speak to a conference about ‘taking America back’ when she clearly does not recognize that the ideals to be espoused there simply do not include the radical and very ‘unconservative’ agenda represented by GOProud,” he said.

"Apparently," he continued," Ms. Coulter has forgotten that we hate fags!"

Although Coulter has defended her agreement with GOProud, she has announced that her speaking at the event does not interfere with her personal beliefs.
“They hired me to give a speech, so I’m giving a speech. I do it all the time,” Coulter said. “I speak to a lot of groups and do not endorse them. Giving a speech is not an endorsement of every position held by the people I’m speaking to.”

"I have no principles," she continued. "I'll take their money, make a stupid speech, then go back to calling them fags and homos as soon as the check clears.

So, anyway, that's the AFA's problem with Coulter.
What's their beef with Beck?

Glenn Beck has completely and shamelessly surrendered on the issue of gay marriage, and did so on Bill O’Reilly’s program, only the most watched cable news program in all TV land.

Beck said “we have bigger fish to fry” than protecting natural marriage, which, outside of being the bedrock and foundation of any healthy society and the cornerstone of Western civilization, is apparently not that important to Mr. Beck.

Oh, because Beck thinks that the bogeymen of his paranoid delusions are scarier than the thought of two dudes getting married. And you think that the two dudes are just the most scariest thing ever, way more than Beck's imaginary Nazis and Stalinists? Is that the problem?

Here’s hoping - and praying - that both of these two former stalwarts in the cause will come to their senses in time to return to their posts on the wall instead of giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Um, I thought the enemy was Al Queda, not Big Gay Al.

You wanna know how upset the AFA is about these two going all soft on the gay thing? Check this out:

As far as Ronald Reagan’s dictum that "[t]he person who agrees with you 80 percent of the time is a friend and an ally - not a 20 percent traitor," let’s have the average husband try that out on his wife. “Honey, I’m faithful 80% of the time. There’s no reason for you to come after me with the frying pan.”

Yeah. They just dissed Reagan. Ronald Freakin Reagan! That's like a Catholic dissing the Pope, or a Buddhist dissing Buddha. Or a communist dissing Marx. How pissy do they have to be to throw Reagan under the bus just because his "dictum" supports their not jettisoning Beck and Coulter? And it's not like Beck and Coulter are going to stop being totally horrible people.

The revolution starts to devour its own.

There have been conservative "revolutions" before.
We've seen "revolutions" based on cutting taxes

and "revolutions" based on cutting welfare

but this teabagger revolution is a whole new breed of nuts.
Previous conservative movements were led by people may have been senile

or morally bankrupt

but they weren't just baboon-ass crazy.



So, it seemed inevitable that the teabagging revolutionaries would start turning on each other like Robespierre on Danton sooner rather than later.

And now it begins. The teabaggers have already begun attacking their erstwhile poster boy Scott Brown. just check out some of these comments from BrownBrigade.com, a website created to promote Brown's candidacy:

A vote for more stimulus? Are you kidding? What a joke!

Sir, you will have a very short career in the Senate!

Brian, you are so right! He is a traitor and it took only 3 weeks to show his true vision of being the "voice of the people". What a shame...

Yes. He has already shown that he is just another pure politician with no values or beliefs. First supporting the old crony John McCain and now supporting more fraudulent stimulus.

After three weeks and contradicted one of the very basics he ran on and you expect us to call it a compromise? He sold out. He sold out quick, he sold out cheap and after selling out he has no intention of looking back.

And on his Facebook page:

Because everyone knows that building highways doesn't put average Americans back to work. Just those fancy-schmancy high-brow highway doctors and computer robot scientists.

And the cause of their vitriol? Scott Brown turned out to not be totally insane. Scott Brown figured that maybe jobs for people might be a good idea. Breal out the tar and feathers!

Next, they turned on the high priest of crazy dickishness, Glenn Beck himself!

Here's WingNut Daily's take on Beck:

Meet kinder, gentler Glenn Beck: New 'global warming' believer?

Finds common ground with George Clooney, his publicist is Democratic Party power player

Egads! Beck had a moment of heresy in which he thought "Gee, maybe every legitimate scientist in the world isn't stupid. Maybe the world is getting warmer."

Listen to this list of his sins:

While polls show more people drifting away from acceptance of "global warming," the newest superstar among conservatives – Glenn Beck – is embracing it, according to an interview story in a leading national Sunday-newspaper magazine.

"You'd be an idiot not to notice the temperature change," he says.

He also thinks it could be caused partly by man's activity.

At home, he's going green by using energy-saving products.

Saving Energy!?!? What's next, child murder?

No, even worse:

Beck also reveals he's no fan of Ronald Reagan
whom he blames for driving up the deficits.

Eeeeekkkk!!!!!

Of course, that's not what Beck really said, WingNut Daily just kinda gets it backwards.

"Republicans sold the American people out," Beck says. "I've always said I was a Reagan-style conservative. But I don't think Reagan was a real Republican. He just maintained some shared values."

So, he seems to be saying that he likes Reagan, but doesn't care for the republican Party in general. WingNut Daily interprets this as saying he doesn't like Reagan. I guess to them, saying "he's not a real Republican" is the greatest insult.

Then CPAC happened. And the CPACers took their annual straw poll, and Ron Paul came out in first. Now the teabaggers should love the ant-government, pro gun, anti-fed, pro-conspiracy theory ron Paul, but for some reason, a lot of wingnuts are distancing themselves from him. (probably due to his opposition to the Iraq invasion and his desire to close US military bases in foreign countries. You know, reducing government spending, smaller government and all that)

Here's John Hinderacker of Powerline:

Ron Paul has won the CPAC straw Presidential vote with 31 percent of the total. This is dismaying, to the extent one takes it seriously. Ron Paul is the crazy uncle in the Republican Party's attic

The crazy uncle? Ron Paul? Ron Paul is THE crazy uncle? The Republican Party has more crazy uncles than the Addams family.

And more weirdo aunts than Samantha Stevens

Anyway, I think I had a point when I started this, but. . .

Oh, yeah. The Teabaggers are starting to destroy their own idols. This could be fun to watch.

Ah, Hell Yeah! It's About To Get All Crazy Up In This Shit!

Dammmmm, son! The GOP is down with the youth!

Ann Coulter

I'll say this about Ann Coulter, at least she's consistent. And you know what you're going to get from her. She doesn't build any gingerbread houses to lure the unsuspecting. No, she just rolls out of bed spitting bile and venom and flashing her fangs. So at least she's honest. In a way.













So it was no surprise to read this:

As long as we're deciding who does and doesn't have an "absolute right to be born," who's to say late-term abortionists have an "absolute right" to live?
I believe the correct position is: If you don't believe in shooting abortionists,
then don't shoot one.

In a way, it's kind of refreshing. Usually what you get from these folks is, "oh sure, we constantly called Dr. Tiller a mass murderer who needed to be stopped from murdering more innocents, but Gosh, we sure don't condone this type of violent attack!"

So, yeah, Ann Coulter is fucking nuts and a horrid, nasty little person, but the good thing about her is that she tears away the mask of civility and decency that these people usually hide behind.Which is, in a way, a valuable service.
