What the HELL Were You Thinking?

very time a Conservative launches into a tirade about refugees, immigrants or radicals, if you hear the words “People I find scary” you will be exactly right. Conservatism is a culture of fear, and fear breeds hate, and hate breeds more terror in an endless loop. I would rather run the miniscule risk of dying in a terror attack than see the Constitution torn up and used to wipe Trump’s ass so he can appeal to some fucking cretinous dimwits in the Republican Primary, because I understand the only way America can be overthrown is if we do it to ourselves. Trust me, right now, with Trump, Carson and Cruz, we are on the verge of doing just that.

I’ve noted before certain aspect of the PC Culture worked wonders, and thinking about the words you say and the things you do as the impact others is ALWAYS the right thing. But intolerance for the sake of tolerance is the opposite of tolerance it’s hypocrisy. No one expects you to LIKE bigots, racists, Republicans and NASCAR fans--you can say terrible things about them in a podcast until your heart's content! Do you think I have a podcast because people find me entertaining, or really enjoy references to 70’s television and 80’s gaming trends? No! I have a podcast because I spin all the vitriol and spite I feel toward people I find offensive, stupid or bigoted into 30 minutes of mocking derision once a week and not be such dick the rest of the time. So, with all of this in mind, I really am here to help! So, I’ve compiled a little something to help all the sensitive souls out there!

Off year elections rarely go well for the party in the White House, but since the election of 2008 the Democrats have lost 900 State Legislature seats, 12 governorships, 69 house seats and 13 Senate Seats, that is not mention all the dog catchers and sewer commissionerships that turned over. When you look at a map of the country and overlay the electoral composition of their governments it looks like the Kool Aid Man tried to break through a Titanium Wall.

History is not just a class I got stoned in during high school, it’s important because it reminds of the stupid shit we’ve already done, so that MAYBE we don’t do it again. This is exactly the same reason I keep this inflatable Margaret Thatcher Sex Doll autographed by Reagan I bought on ebay one night while shitfaced. If you keep it sitting there next to the computer, you might slow down a second before hitting the submit button on that bid, or you know launching cruise missiles against an Afghani hospital. Barry, if you need to borrow Tartie Maggs, let me know.

Hell, I am not even talking about pot arrests, come on arresting someone for selling pot is like arresting someone for selling Girl Scout Cookies! Mean spirited and pointless because Edna in accounting buys thirty boxes and is always willing to help you score! Edna has the been Samoan, tell her Dave sent you, she will hook you UP!

Until then, the Republican Party is holding on to singularly vicious and VERY poisonous snake which has no problems killing the hand that feeds it. Boehner held on for five years, sadly there was no friendly mongoose to save him. He may just be the first to fall. I am left to wonder at what price this will place out. It cost them presidency in 2012, it will likely cost them again in 2016, if the Republicans don’t root out the extremist in their party, they will cease to exist as a viable entity. Of course, if they DO try to clean up the mess they made they run the very real risk of viable Third Party rising up and tearing away their base, leaving in exactly the same situation. If they move, they strike, if they don’t move they strike--they REALLY should get a Mongoose, sadly all they have is a weasel and he is actually part of the problem.

It’s not just bombs, dear listeners, here is a short list of things Americans of are afraid of: Terrorism: in the past 15 years just over 3,000 civilians died in terrorist incidents in the world, and 2,689 of THOSE were on 9/11. Just for a little perspective, 33,000 people a year, every year, die from gun related deaths. And yes, guns are kind of sort of on the list, Americans are afraid of being killed in a mass shooting, even though the odds of that happening are basically zero compared the odds of them shooting themselves in the dick with the gun they buy to protect themselves from the mass shooting.
