Sorry, nothing tops a blowjob in the Oval office for total disrespect for this country, and the office of the president. Obama and his outright lies and tearing down of this country are a close second.


considering blowjobs, according to statistics, they now figure in most heterosexual sex, I'd say it's fairly normal behavior, and I wouldn't be surprised if most recent presidents hadn't had sex in the Oval Office, just one of the perks of the job.

Granted, Bill and Monica weren't married, but that never seems to have stopped all those randy GOP politicians who are forever seeing their names, and partners appearing in the tabloids, usually soon after they've been fulminating about family values.

And I think accepting bribe payoffs in the Oval Office is far more disrespectful to the country. And the only politician caught doing that was a Republican. Remember Spiro?

Also, you know that right-wing meme, which lists 50 alleged lies Obama has told. It's bullshit. Check snopes.com, they actually look at the facts, while the right wing just mindlessly reposts the list again and again.

@coldjoint,
The ones that aren't in financial straights. There, don't you feel stupid. The red states are the ones in trouble. 'Splain that one, you goofy little jerk. Why is it the RED states use more food stamps, use more aid, more tax dollars the the Blue states? Could it be that the tax cuts hurt the states by making the 1% richer? Bet that hurts your brain.

Conservatives' Hilarious, Doomed Efforts to Be Cool
http://www.alternet.org/tea-party-and-right/conservatives-hilarious-doomed-efforts-be-cool



Conservatives have a problem with cool. If they were smart, right-wing pundits and Republican political consultants would just ignore the whole concept of cool. Being conservative is inherently uncool, since the whole point of conservatism is to reject the forward-looking and liberated attitude that has always defined cool. Worrying much about it is just a waste of time. Trying to be cool just makes you look ridiculous, and paradoxically, more uncool. It’s a no-win situation, and yet conservatives continue taking the bait, forever trying to get this whole concept of cool to work for them and always, always failing.

The latest example of the Republicans trying to figure out to work this cool thing and failing is an ad campaign running in 14 states with Senate campaigns in 2014 that shows Scott Greenberg, a 30-year-old Audi driver saying things like he is “ticked off at politicians” for passing regulations, which he believes are the source of unemployment. We are clearly meant to believe that Greenberg is a hipster, demonstrating the infallible conservative ability to hop on any trend right after it’s run out of steam. Greenberg wears a striped shirt and glasses and has a scraggly beard, but sadly for Scott Greenberg and his benefactors, none of that does much to conceal the eau de dweeb that hovers over anyone who takes seriously the idea that wealthy businessmen are the major oppressed class of America.

It’s hard to see why Republicans even bother. Even if it were possible to trick young voters into thinking you can vote Republican and still be cool, it isn’t really necessary. It’s not like the millennial crowd is dweeb-free, for one thing. For another, the usual tactics of using catchphrases like “small government” and “personal responsibility” to cover up race-baiting pandering to white people is working pretty well on white millennials, though perhaps not quite as well as it did on white people before.

No, it’s safe to say that this attempt to be cool is less about really peeling off votes from the Democrats. No, this is about something deeper, a long-standing jealousy and resentment of the left for being a giant vacuum that sucks up all the cool people, leaving behind the right. (Let’s be clear, by no means am I saying all Democrats are cool. They have their fair share of dorks and dweebs. But it is, and many Republicans are keenly aware of this, true that most cool people are pretty liberal. It just comes with the territory.) This creates a major insecurity on the right, and periodically there are embarrassing attempts to deal with it by asserting, laughably, that they have cool people on their side of the aisle, too. It’s painful to watch.

Well, this has been an interesting read, feel as though I dropped into some kind of political sex scandal column. I really don't get why we need to get into the personal values and/or personal sex lives of elected officials, but it is what it is I guess.

In any event, glad to know we were able to pass the minimum wage hike. I am surprised.

@revelette2,
I think we're on an ascendency, ACA and minimum wages are a starting point.

To finally become a reasonable society...we will have to raise the minimum wage even higher than now being proposed. Any wage earner who works a full time job should be insured of enough pay to live a reasonable life...without worries about education, medical attention, old age, food, shelter, a reasonable amount of entertainment and vacation...and so forth.

Perhaps we can get to the point where only the most productive actually work the jobs that need tending to by humans rather than machines.

And the government MUST become the employer of last resort.

Everyone does not have to "earn a living." Some people do more for society and productivity by staying the hell out of the way. But even those people should have a reasonable standard of living.

We are a wealthy planet. We are supposedly an intelligent species.

Time for us to start acting the part.

A living wage is the lowest level for a minimum wage.

Great comeback!

I'm sure it comes as no surprise that you are one of the people I had in mind when I typing that comment, CJ. You have gotten so extreme, it is unpleasant to read your nonsense.

Don't read it then. Your input amounts to nothing anyway.
