God Bless



Crackpot wingnut billionaires.

Because they just don't care.

Now you know why RNC chair Reince Priebus always has the squirmy, uncomfortable look of a man who brutally crapped his pants an hour ago and still hasn't yet found a way to get behind a closed door and clean himself up.  Now you know why, before Priebus, the GOP hired an incompetent House Negro and a self-loathing gay man to front for them.  Because you have to have a superhuman capacity for ass-kissing and gag-reflex-suppression to beg for money from a CHUD like Foster Freiss.

But now the wealthy CHUDs who have been bankrolling the GOP for years are are leaving the sewers, stepping over their PR flaks and pressing their, big, oozy, bigots brains directly against the teevee camera lens without intermediation.

Because crackpot wingnut billionaires just don't fucking care.

And why should they?

They play at politics as if it were the dog track or penny-a-point pinochle, and whether or not the mope they're stakehorsing this time around wins, at the end of the day they're still going to go home wealthier than you or I can possibly imagine.  And now, to the horror of their wranglers, these full-body moral lepers -- from the Kochs to Freiss to Sheldon Adelson -- are stumbling into the broad daylight wearing only pasties and g-strings.  Now they are using the force of their riches to bankroll the Loud Public Blabbing of all the loathsome lies and casual bigotries that are the Mother tongue of the Party of God, but which the Republican brain caste and most the the Villager Media have spent a generation trying to cover up.

Because crackpot wingnut billionaires -- who are used to shooting their mouths off to room's full of toadies and lickspittles who will agree with any batshit nonsense that comes out of their boss' pie hole -- just don't fucking care.

God bless 'em.

It was just astonishing (and I'd thought I had all but lost the capacity for that sensation) watching this sniggering neanderthal laugh off what concerns women about birth control. Never mind his pig-ignorant lunatic rantings about aspirin between a woman's legs ( what the fuckitty fuck was that?), you right: it's just the consequencelessness of him that irks; he knows he can game and fuck up the system until his heart burst from excess fat, and no one will ever hold him to account for the damage done. All we have are these words, but they'll have to do.

Oh, come onnnnnn.

They care.

If they have to pay taxes on their ill-gotten gains.

They care a lot.

And, thus, the batshit crazy is loosed on the world.

We are so blessed with reporters/interviewers like Andrea Mitchell for the lamestream media, The best she can do is, "catch her breathe" and "let's change the subject?" Why? Because Mr. Freisse is so clever and cute? Mr. Greenspan is still so proud of her for just sucking up what women deserve, accepting a woman's inferior role, accepting their sexual inferiority (it's all their problem) and that is important and she will remain enormously wealthy and serve as a role model for all women. I just can't get enough of her.

For what (little) it is worth, Foster - or one of his handlers - must have quickly realized his gaffe. This morning his website (no, I won't link) has a half-assed kinda sorta non-apology for the remark. Shucks gals, y'all just gotta keep yer legs together!

BTW, he's originally a Wisconsin lad (Rice Lake), and the same age as nearby conservative billionaire John Menard. And also too, the RWNM has been walking back the billionaire moniker. WSJ says he's only worth $530M. One weeps.

Bad as Friess is, he's a piker compared to the Koch brothers in terms of money (and willingness) to throw around. TGIF.

This exposes the idiocy of people who think that the media is after ratings or sensationalism.

News was made right there on her own friggin' show, and Mitchell's reflex, honed with constant practice, is to put a blanket over it and make it like it never happened.

What the hell kind of "corporate" media instinctively hates news?

your utter domination of the English language keeps me comin back brother

Why did Andrea quickly/instinctively ignore Friess' remark? As Malcolm would say, she knows to "tow the fookin' line."

i don't know that they don't care so much as that they are just not aware. they've lived in the equivalent of gated communities all their lives. and, yeah, that was a dumb joke when i read it as a kid back in the early 60s, but dumb is the new right-wing aware. actually, not so new...

Here in Southern California, Foster's Freeze was a pretty big hamburger/ice cream chain for decades. They have dwindled out and disappeared I believe - however, why is there someone named Foster Friesse? Is this just a coincidence? Very strange.
