That Barack Obama said that their pundits don't have to know anything and can fuck up without impunity.
The only Austerity that works is in their brain
Sadly that fucks up the rest of us even more.
Gov. Scott Walker has repeatedly assured Wisconsinites that his assaults on local democracy, public services, public education and collective bargaining rights would create jobs and prosperity.
In contrast, the governor has argued, the decision of Illinois officials to tackle budget challenges with fair tax policies, respect for public employees and efforts to maintain services would cause doom and gloom for that state.
The Illinois comparison has been a constant in Walker’s speeches, media appearances and press releases since January.And you can surely guess how that has actually worked out in ...BUM BUM BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH...reality:
The October jobs figures for the United States were just released. Illinois led the nation in job creation, adding 30,000 new jobs.
And what about Wisconsin?
Under Walker, Wisconsin now leads the nation in job losses. In fact, of the states that the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics described as experiencing “statistically significant unemployment changes” in October, only one actually lost jobs: Wisconsin.
Wisconsin lost 9,700 jobs in October, almost all of them in the private sector.Good job you illiterate boob.
Well now we know
The additional conservative strategy for 2012, given their candidates, is to re-run 2008 stories about Obama because they know their readers cannot ever remember what happened yesterday, let alone four years ago.
The real question is when they are going to accuse Obama of lying about his medals while on a Swiftboat in Vietnam?

If you are a progressive blogger who is known for their accuracy vis-a-vis the legal violations of various Bush Administration members and you say the word "blowjob" once on television...well your career as a pundit is over.
But if you are a right-wing hit piece machine, who uses the First Amendment's protections to slander and say words like "douchebag" among other things continuously you not only get to appear on every network, but you get to go on another network the same day to talk about what you said on another network.
Somehow this must be the work of Obama & the Clenis.

Repeated Herman Cain affair allegations are passe
When is a second abused former Romney pet dog going to come forward?
His favorite color is "clear"
In a field laden with ignoramuses, functional illiterates, philanderers, super-philanderers and the dork-a-christ, one man stands apart.
Mitt Romney, relatively untainted by scandal or backbone -- George H.W. Bush with a tan. But now Romney is so dull and uncharismatic he is desperate for some color outside of bronzer. The base wants more craaaaaazzzzzy. But being Mitt Romney this is the best he could do:
This sort of milquetoast douchebaggery cannot stand against the genuine article.
I suggest Mitt take a hint from the Cain campaign and have a second former family dog come forward to allege neglect.
Maybe he should claim his current dog is named "Fenton"?

Herman Cain was once -- as hard as it is to believe -- was once the front-runner for the GOP nomination. And considering that his biggest accomplishment was dropping hints while conducting job interviews that is quite a fact, in and of itself. But there's a reason he had the right-stuff for the Right-wing and that was his comfort with saying two completely contradictory things in adjoining sentences.
And it makes complete sense to the modern Republican brain.
[cross-posted at Firedoglake]
Cain has denied the [sex harassment] accusations and says “nothing has gone wrong” in terms of the campaign’s mechanics. But he tells CNN’s “State of the Union” that some people “are heavily influenced by perception more so than reality.” Cain also says he supports “targeted identification” in weeding out potential terrorists.So just because there are people saying Herman Cain sexually harassed them it's a perception issue and that's wrong. But if you're of the right brownish hue Herman Cain perceives you might be a terrorist.
And it makes complete sense to the modern Republican brain.

Good news everyone...there isn't another Republican Presidential Debate for you to follow only through the posting of horrific quotes for more than two weeks. Apparently the candidates will be busy fighting the War on Chanukah ("C" vs. No "C") amongst other things -- although I'm just going to throw it out there and say Rick Santorum will be celebrating Ashura.
But what a paradigm of modern GOP Wingnuttery we had last night as CNN, last seen sponsoring a debate with the "Tea Party", joined forces with the Heritage Foundation and the American Enterprise Institute on the subject of who will make the rubble in Iran bounce higher Foreign Policy. With such neo-con luminaries as Paul Wolfowitz, David Addington and Danielle Pletka asking questions via obliging former AIPAC employee Wolf Blitzer.
* We learned "Africa is a Country" from Rick Santorum, who must have heard that from Sarah Palin.
* Herman Cain said that despite his fear of mountains, if Israel demands we bomb Iran, well by golly who are we to say no?
* Ron Paul criticized the Patriot Act and the War on Drugs and was never heard from again.
* Willard Mitt Romney explicitly denied his first name was "Willard" (it is, but it is pronounced "Throat Warbler Mangrove") .
* Gingrich indicated he was open to allowing illegal immigrants to be in the U.S. legally. *record scratch*
Well, so long Newt's front runner status, that was almost not intolerant.

Republican Milquetoast (Mittoast?) Mitt Romney is soiling his virtual magic underwear again.
The Romney campaign’s very first television ad, released this evening, dishonestly presents a 2008 McCain campaign quote as the words of President Obama. The ad features a voice-over of Obama saying “if we keep talking about the economy, we’re going to lose.” Then-candidate Obama indeed said those words, perhaps dozens of times during the closing month of the 2008 campaign. The only problem? Obama was actually quoting the words of a strategist from Sen. John McCain’s campaign.

So, we are different from third world income disparities how exactly?
Capital gains are the key ingredient of income disparity in the US-- and the force behind the winner takes all mantra of our economic system. If you want even out earning power in the U.S, you have to raise the 15% capital gains tax. Income and wealth disparities become even more absurd if we look at the top 0.1% of the nation's earners-- rather than the more common 1%. The top 0.1%-- about 315,000 individuals out of 315 million-- are making about half of all capital gains on the sale of shares or property after 1 year; and these capital gains make up 60% of the income made by the Forbes 400.Fuck everybody else.

Three Men and a Fucking Baby
Apparently, she thought she was dismissing Johnny Mathis
And dismissing a person of "dubious" color.
The Arizona Supreme Court Thursday evening reinstated the chairwoman of the Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission, rebuffing Gov. Jan Brewer’s unprecedented action earlier this month. The ruling came less than three hours after the court heard arguments on the case, which revolved around the extent to which the commission is free of outside political interference. The court decided the governor’s Nov. 1 removal letter to Colleen Coyle Mathis did not demonstrate “substantial neglect of duty, gross misconduct in office or inability to discharge the duties of office.”The stupidity and lack of evidence for the discharge is pretty evident given the time it took an appeals court to make a ruling. I've been practicing for 20 years and the fastest appellate ruling I ever got from any court was about a month. Bench rulings in district court often take more than 3 hours. What a complete power-hungry dope Jan Brewer is, but given her supporters they deserve each other. (via Think Progress)

It just gets more disgusting
First this morning we learn that Joe Paterno sold his property interest in his house to his wife for $1 this Summer. Seeing as they shared a common interest and whoever died first would get the other's share and Paterno will have medical benefits and a pension of $500,000 a year there is no logical reason I can think of to do this except to avoid any potential judgment liability he would have (the linked article discusses caveats). Maybe I'm wrong, but given his pension and benefits medical costs for him or her would not be a problem.

Penn State has hired as the person (oh, hell it's a man of course) to look into the Sandusky child-rape allegations the same guy who as CEO of Merck managed to obfuscate his company's responsibility for Vioxx.
Late last week, the university’s trustees announced they would conduct their own “full and complete” investigation into the matter. The probe will be headed, though, by a man with a track record of protecting powerful institutions from the consequences of their inaction: the chairman and CEO of the Merck pharmaceutical company, Kenneth C. Frazier. A Penn State alum and Harvard-trained lawyer, Frazier is best known for his phenomenal success in defending a sordid chapter in Merck’s recent past—its years-long silence about the safety problems of the popular painkiller Vioxx.Time to make sure we know all those young boys were just being given innocent jockular attention with Jerry Sandusky's clown-penis as far as Penn State observers knew.

He said a GOP plan put forward by Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) — one which Republicans claim would raise revenues by nearly $300 billion over 10 years, but would also make the Bush tax cuts permanent — is as far as Republicans are willing to go on revenues. But that’s an offer Democrats flatly rejected as unserious.

What Charles Pierce says
The whole thing is a fantastic and powerful piece of writing probably the best thing on the whole disgusting nightmare at Penn State
...a bit of it:
...a bit of it:
It happens because institutions lie. And today, our major institutions lie because of a culture in which loyalty to "the company," and protection of "the brand" — that noxious business-school shibboleth that turns employees into brainlocked elements of sales and marketing campaigns — trumps conventional morality, traditional ethics, civil liberties, and even adherence to the rule of law. It is better to protect "the brand" than it is to protect free speech, the right to privacy, or even to protect children.
If Mike McQueary had seen a child being raped in a boardroom or a storeroom, he wouldn't have been any more likely to have stopped it, or to have called the cops, than he was as a graduate assistant football coach at Penn State. With unemployment edging toward double digits, and only about 10 percent of the workforce unionized, every American who works for a major company knows the penalty for exercising his personal freedom, or his personal morality, at the expense of "the company." Independent thought is discouraged. Independent action is usually crushed. Nobody wants to damage the brand. Your supervisor might find out, and his primary loyalty is to the company. Which is why he got promoted to be your supervisor in the first place.
It is not a failure of our institutions so much as it is a window into what they have become — soulless, profit-driven monsters, Darwinian predators with precious little humanity left in them. Penn State is only the most recent example. Too much of this country is too big to fail.

The Waterboarding ‘Zombie Lies’ continue
On Saturday at the latest Republican debate a solid majority of candidates embraced the prospect of waterboarding a foreigner. Only the marginalized Paul and ostracized Huntsman disapproved. Carrying on the charade -- but then what else does she have -- Michelle Bachmann stated this in an interview:
[cross-posted at Firedoglake]
“If I were president, I would be willing to use waterboarding,” the Minnesota Republican declared. “It was very effective. It gained information for our country.”Well, actually no it was not at all effective. It just made sociopaths feel better. And then it was time to drop the other non-historical big one:
“I would go back to president Harry Truman who had to make the horrific decision about dropping an atomic bomb on Japan to end World War II. He said if he had to kill Japanese in order to save one American life, he would.”This is an old conservative canard glorified by the same old never shamed frauds like Cliff May, who must be passing Bachmann large print cards to read it from. The mass bombings, including the dropping of nuclear bombs is not something to excuse or glorify, but neither is it an excuse to torture. Besides, if waterboarding is suddenly fine and awesome why did this happen:
...in 1947, the United States charged a Japanese officer, Yukio Asano, with war crimes for carrying out another form of waterboarding on a U.S. civilian. The subject was strapped on a stretcher that was tilted so that his feet were in the air and head near the floor, and small amounts of water were poured over his face, leaving him gasping for air until he agreed to talk. "Asano was sentenced to 15 years of hard labor,"And he wasn't the only one. Who was President in 1947 anyway?

You're doing it wrong!!!
Dear TLC,
What the heck...don't you know what you are suppose to do?

What the heck...don't you know what you are suppose to do?
The producers and stars of TLC's All-American Muslim, which premieres this Sunday at 10, are taking great pains to insist that their show is nothing unusual. "It's just a natural fit for us," says Alon Ornstein, TLC's vice president of production and development. "We're always all about telling compelling stories about real families."Unless it is called "19 Virgins down 53 to go"; Terra-rists & Tiaras OR "The Littlest Jihadists" about small people running a small persons' burka shop IT IS NOT TLC PROGRAMMING!!!

Who will be the next Republican Flavor
Who has the benefit of not being Mitt? Now they are starting to recycle...Newt? If this keeps up, future wife #4 better splurge the cash.
But look, we all know when your candidates are named Newt and Mitt, it merely makes a Barack look even better in comparison.
The Republicans have been nothing if not willing to consider new faces to the campaign. So, why not someone newly available?
Why not Joe Paterno?

1. He's old and out of it like Reagan.
2. Every day for the last 13 years has pretty much been the August 6th PDB of ass covering.
3. He knows more black people than Herman Cain.
4. He's not, y'know, all Mormony.
5. He is slightly less creepy, even after all this, than his fellow Pennsylvanian, Santorum.
6. When it came to reporting pederasty he knew the three things you were supposed to do were first, tell the AD; second, tell the witness to keep it down; and three...uh...um...it'll come to him...(Ron Paul: Phone the Police?)...no that's not it...uh...oops.
7. His thick lenses will make Bachmann-like pie-eyed moments seem like he's something adorable out of Japanese anime.
8. THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION!
9. He hasn't been charged with a crime, merely morally implicated in it...there can be no greater modern Republican symbol than that.
Oh, how disappointing
Apparently Bill O'Reilly cannot even write factually accurate things about well-known historical events.
That'll teach him to blame the Lincoln assassination on well-known time-traveling-socialistic-civil rights-supporting-Muslim-Obama-lover John Wilkes Clenis.
On the other hand, commentor JKP1000 at Salon appears to have read the book and pulls out what is surely an excerpt:

Lincoln decides he wants to go out for the evening, alright? He asks Mary if there are good movies playing in town. Mary says, "Movies? What?". Lincoln says, "Fuck it! We'll do it live! Let's go over to The Gerald Ford Theatre."
A couple hours later, Lincoln and Mary are sitting in the balcony at the GFT, not bothering anyone, alright? Just as Lincoln starts to relax, some hippie liberal comes bursting in the room behind him waving a pistol saying, "I hate America! I want to tax the rich!". Lincoln says, "Fuck it!" and turns around pulling a derringer from his vest. He aims and fires at the hippie liberal saying, "Take that, pinhead!"
Ooh Ooh lemme guess...

Herman Cain, whose campaign could use some redemption in the wake of a sexual harassment scandal, told a crowd of young Republicans on Saturday that God convinced him to run for presidentI believe the conversation involved God asking, "You want a job, don't you?" But this seems somewhat familiar...
Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., says that she prayed to God about whether or not to run for political office and that those prayers provided her with a "sense from God" of "assurance about the direction" she was taking.Oh and this guy,
Perry told a group of businessmen and women, "At 27 years old, I knew that I had been called to the ministry. I've just always been really stunned by how big a pulpit I was gonna have. I still am. I truly believe with all my heart that God has put me in this place at this time to do his will."Obviously, Perry would tell you he's endorsed by the Father, Son and uh...um...ah.... Or as God would tell you, "Oops".

How could it not be so?
Roy Greenslade Tells Media Matters Radio: "Every Single Member Of The Parliamentary Committee Investigating [Phone Hacking] Were Followed By Private Eyes And/Or Members Of [News of the World] Staff"
It's funny how that lyin'
Just becomes as natural as eating breathing:
RUSH: I gotta tell you: Rick Perry, to me, is funny. During the debate when he decided to go after Mitt Romney for hiring illegals? When he stood up there and said (impression), "And, Mitt, you have lost all your standing with me, 'cause you, on your own property..." I just started laughing. He's a funny guy -- and Letterman! Letterman brought him on last night; I'm sure Letterman wanted him to bomb. I'll guarantee you they wanted him to come on there and forget his lines as he did the top ten list. Letterman was not happy. Perry was funny. This is a montage of Perry cracking people up on Letterman last night.Funny how that TELEPROMPTER thing only seems to exist for Obama in Rush's little fictional world.

James Murdoch soon to be arrested? Is Rupert having a Paterno-like dottage (without the previous good reputation of course?) Oh, and Silvio Berlusconi too.
Look out Rupert...
You aren't in America where your inkwell keeps you immune by bullying...
Police investigating phone-hacking at the News of the World have recovered a series of ‘bombshell’ emails which they believe takes the inquiry to ‘a new level’. The emails were among tens of thousands held by the newspaper at a data storage facility in India. Police are believed to want to question News International chief James Murdoch and former Sun and News of the World editor Rebekah Brooks about their contents. Discussions have taken place with the Crown Prosecution Service about whether Mr Murdoch should be arrested and interviewed under caution.I think Avarosis sums it up best.
This story still doesn't seem to be getting much play here in the states. Odd, considering who's involved. Imagine if George Soros were the entrepreneur involved in all of this, instead of Rupert Murdoch. Bet Fox News would find the story newsworthy then.
It says a lot
About the bigoted complicity of both the modern Republican Party and the media that this guy isn't being publicly shamed and ruined as a politician ...
In the interview, which took place on Veterans Day, Womick told ThinkProgress that “I don’t trust one Muslim in our military” and “if they truly are a devout Muslims, and follow the Quran and the Sunnah, then I feel threatened because they’re commanded to kill me.” When asked if Muslims should be forced out of the military, Womick responded “Absolutely, yeah.”But he won't be.
Unbelievable
Stupid policies make expensive decisions costing a stupid people
The cost of over-reach, and imperial assholery:
As lawmakers on Congress’ deficit reduction super committee look for places to cut the federal budget ahead of their upcoming deadline, they may want to look at the prison camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. The facility is “arguably the most expensive prison on earth,” according to a new report from the Miami Herald. With a budget of $139 million last year to house just 171 detainees, it costs more than $800,000 to keep each prisoner for a year — more than 30 times the average cost of a traditional prison.We have a President who is too meek to close it...but at least wants to, against a Party that wants to expand it while demanding the middle class and poor have a virtual Gitmo of poverty built around them while they call it a gated community.
Takes one to know one
Rich "Starbursts" Lowry:
The National Review’s Rich Lowry weighed in on Perry’s gaffe on Wednesday night, posting “That might be the most uncomfortable moment I’ve ever witnessed in presidential politics.”And that's from a guy who pretty much posted his masturbation play-by-play during Sarah Palin's incredibly wretched 2008 debate performance.

Sorry about not giving a shit about income disparity or taking part in protests about it.

In the mid 1960’s the conservative magazine National Review was known for statements like this:

"For years now, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King and his associates have been deliberately undermining the foundations of internal order in this country. With their rabble-rousing demagoguery, they have been cracking the “cake of custom” that holds us together.But oh how they have progressed over at the National Review, as demonstrated by this column from just yesterday where Victor Davis Hanson applies the reverse paper bag test:
Black authenticity, as defined by Southern mannerisms and darker complexion, amplified by conservatism or traditionalism, earns liberal unease....[Cain’s] speech and manner are as genuine as Obama's are forced and often phony.... Cain is authentically African-American and of an age to remember the Jim Crow SouthAKA, "The Good Old Days".

According to him, because of this...
According to him, because of this...
he was “working on an empty stomach and had a quicker fuse than normal.”And now Gillian Jacobs does an impression of Joe Walsh if Herman Cain had suddenly walked in the door.
Frothied that one up
But of course:
Then Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum thought enough of Jerry Sandusky nine years ago to sponsor the former Penn State defense coordinator for a “Congressional Angels in Adoption” award, citing his work with a non-profit group he founded to provide care for foster children. “Its philosophy is simple: it is easier to develop a child than to rehabilitate an adult,” read the citation from Santorum in the awards dinner program from Sept. 24, 2002.
And it is not Peggy Noonan
But enough of that...on with the EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!
Grab a bucket:
Hollywood actress Piper Laurie, 79, says in a new memoir "Learning To Live Out Loud" that she lost her virginity to Ronald Reagan when, at age 18, she played his 16-year-old daughter in the 1950 movie "Louisa." Um ... eww. According to the Daily Mail in London, she wrote that Reagan — who was 21 years her senior — was dating his future second wife Nancy Davis at the time. Prior to her uh, passing the audition, he allegedly wined and dined Laurie at his home. Laurie write that he talked about his performance afterward, in particular how long it had lasted. He was "ardent" for 40 minutes, he reminded her. And he mentioned the price of the condom he used.Okay, which is worse?
*40 year old man sleeping with an 18 year-old virgin?
*Said virgin plays 16-year old daughter in movie they are making together.
*After he apparently got her inebriated.
*He brags about lasting 40 minutes...because we all know that kind of thing is REALLY enjoyable to women after 40 minutes of friction.
*He mentions the price of the condom (birth control, how non-modern GOP)Yes, the SAINTED REPUBLICAN RONALD REAGAN, not quite a statutory rapist, but kind of enjoyed pretending to be one. I guess that's my favorite new slogan about the man.

So, last night:
1. The "unholy alliance" ofdirty fucking hippies unions and the middle class sent Pundit/Governor John Kasich down to crushing defeat in Ohio...overwhelmingly.
2. Despite the best efforts of Mississippi's vaunted educational system, personhood at the moment of conception went down to substantial defeat. Many people can still read GOP, you must do better, like electing this guy Governor -- who by his own description now rules over Hell.
3. In Maine same-day registration -- a measure which actually makes participatory democracy EASIER -- was passed by referendum, again overwhelmingly. Despite the fact conservatives opposed it because same day registration is "gaaaaaaaaaaaaaayeeee".
4. In Arizona, the spiritual leader of Governor Jan Brewer's virulent anti-immigration law was very much recalled and hopefully escorted into the political and second banana after-life by Theodore Bilbo the Very Very White.
5. And in Iowa, Republican efforts to gain control of the State Senate so they can repeal gay marriage also went down to rather substantial defeat when Democrats retained a seat in spite of (or perhaps assisted by) the robocalls of one Conservative group...

1. The "unholy alliance" of
"It's clear the people have spoken," the humbled Republican leader said from the Statehouse... " And as a result of that, it requires me to take a deep breath and to spend some time to reflect on what happened here."You sir are a Republican, "spending time to reflect" is not in your nature. Cutting & pasting FoxNews talking points and genuflecting to the Koch brothers yes, looking in mirror, no.

...the rhetoric turned ugly in the final days of the campaign when a group known as “Citizens for Honesty and Sound Marriage in Iowa” used robocalls to instruct voters to ask Mathis [the Democrat] which gay sex acts she endorses.The answer is, she endorses voting, which as they say in Maine is the gayest act of all.

Golly, why would anyone want to leave Bank of America?
It's hard to believe that nearly 700,000 people have opened accounts with credit unions over large banks in the last several weeks with stories like this:
A federal judge on Monday gave final approval to a $410 million settlement in a class-action lawsuit affecting more than 13 million Bank of America customers who had debit card overdrafts during the past decade.Sounds pretty good right, things should of happened, bank making amends. Well, not exactly.
Barry Himmelstein, an attorney for customers who objected to the deal, said he calculated that the bank actually raked in $4.5 billion through the overdraft fees and was repaying less than 10 percent.So the bank wrongfully took your money, but to let bygones be bygones they'll return less than a dime on every dollar they took. Nice way to profit over wrongful conduct. It's almost as if they have a Party representing them exclusively...and by that I mean both.
Howie Kurtz is flabbergasted by the miscegenation of it all!
Y'know Herman Cain was just accused of grabbing a woman and pulling her toward his crotch, but to Howard Kurtz the thing that really makes it bad and noticeable is that she's white.
If only Cain was accused of sexually harassing black women it would not be such a problem to ol' Howie apparently. I'm sure that's a great comfort to women no matter their complexion.

It is up there with what happened to the basketball program at Baylor. And the manner in which they are now circling the wagons is making it worse.
Joe Paterno has been an institution, but how he handled the allegations by "kicking it upstairs" when he is pretty much the most powerful man on campus is the worst kind of abdication. A kid was raped by an assistant coach and the response was to tell the rapist to keep that stuff off-campus.

Ruh-roh, it looks like the pixie-dust has been groped off Herman Cain.
The poll showed the percentage of Republicans who view Cain favorably dropped 9 percentage points, to 57 percent from 66 percent a week ago. Among all registered voters, Cain's favorability declined 5 percentage points, to 32 percent from 37 percent.Better hand out more free crazy-bread.

Talking about "groping" around for an analogy:
On his Fox News show, Mike Huckabee attempted to defend Herman Cain by comparing sexual harassment to ordering chicken at Popeye’sApparently Huckabee's a breast man.
