Goodbye to the lunatic, the misogynist, the deadbeat dad, the centerfold ... and Lieberman

Goodbye to the lunatic, the misogynist, the deadbeat dad, the centerfold ... and Lieberman

by Kaili Joy Gray

Ah. Another legislative session over, another swearing in of a whole new class of bright-eyed, bushy-tailed lawmakers, eager as all get-out to start protecting the rich, screwing the poor, and grandstanding about 'Merica and light bulb freedom and shrinking the gubmint so it's small enough to drown in a bathtub—or fit inside a vagina.
But before we welcome the newest members, let us take a moment to say so long, farewell, please-oh-pretty-please let the door hit you on the way out to those extra-special sons of bitches we can't wait to not miss:

So have at it. And remember, if you can't say anything nice ... well, that's okay. These guys don't deserve it.

But did he forget the flat-earthers? Let us not forget the people who believe Noah had a male mosquito and a female mosquito in the Ark! Oh, wait! That's 90% of Repukes! My mistake.

Al Gore picked him as a running mate. What a choice
we had, Gore or Bush. I voted Gore and it sucked. We
would be better of had Gore won, but I would probably
be Independant today.

It took legal action to get the evidence, but Gore did win the election. Just think, 9/11 either would not have happened or would have had a completely different outcome. In either case, Iraq would not have happened.

They put patches on the computers in Ohio a month or so
ago, before the election, of course. The plan was to reverse
the Ohio votes when the computers went down. Anonymous
was aware and when the computers went down Anonymous
opened their floodgates so no changes could be
made. Thus, last election, the computers went down to no avail.
If they would have stayed down another minute the patch would have
been exposed. They had to remove the patch. Obama was not
supposed to win! Anonymous rocks!

Was Gore trying to appeal to ... who? Lieberman is a fucking asshole, always was. I think he was a major reason that Gore lost.

He was replaced by a Republican, but will we be able to tell the difference after the Continuing Resolution is voted?

It may have taken his retirement to do it, but for the first time since 1980 I'm not represented in Congress by that do-nothing empty suit.

I actually had to look this up because I thought you were making a toss at LGBTs. Is this a typo? If not, please consider editing.
