Headline of the Day

From CNN: "GOP senators say Obama off to bad start."

I am quite shocked by the headline in the way I have been shocked to hear conservatives defend #43.

The article does have this gem:
"If this is going to be bipartisanship, the country's screwed," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, told ABC's "This Week." "I know bipartisanship when I see it."

Let's see is we can understand this. The GOP engaged in a process to bankrupt and break the company, er... country, which must have been deliberate as the actions of the GOP were so inept. However, when no one wants to listen to the GOP because they continue to adhere to their basic principles, they cry foul.

Lindsey Graham, man of principle.

Harrogate has been following this stuff with a fair amount of attention. As ye know, many in the GOP have gone the Lakoff route, reframing the issue in such a way as to state that the problem with Bush and the "2000s Republicans" was that they weren't actually "conservative."

Which of course this group of Republicans is. And which of course the entire United States is.

Breaking News: Assholes make fart noise. Won't own up to their own shit.
"America's reamed; I smelt it" says Lindsey Graham, who also dealt it.
