Grover Norquist on CNN - Vicious Right Wing partisan whore
Advertisements [?]
Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform; Laura Tyson, former economic adviser to President Bill Clinton were on CNN Sunday morning with Gloria Borger sitting in for Wolf Blitzer who was off celebrating his birthday.

I caught about 10 min of this circus and almost lost my early morning breakfast.
Grover Norquist is a vicious lying right wing whore and he needs to be slapped upside the head.
How is it that we can't defeat a party that does nothing but lie and continually distort the truth?

The conversation was about the economy and who is at fault for the current conditions we find ourselves in.

Gloria Borger asked this question:

When the economy isn't doing well, usually Americans blame the current occupants of the White House and they get voted out, who do you think is to blame for the country's economic problems?"

Laura Tyson, provided a thoughtful analysis of what she felt were the issues and she was continually interrupted by a snarling Norquist.
Talking over her, interrupting her, telling her that "like all Democrats all she wants to do is filibuster" and in general, just being a world class asshole.

Nothing he was saying was supportable (or even close to correct) and Borger did nothing to challenge him on "his facts".

He was just there to spout Right Wing bullshit and reinforce the meme that the Democrats are responsible for all of America's woes and that if given the opportunity they would only make things worse.

Only Republicans are good for the economy.

I'm not a violent man, but if I lived within 20 miles of where he was being interviewed I would have sped to that location and met his lying ass in the parking lot with a baseball bat.

I'm so tired of this shit.
I'm so tired of being lied to and lied about.
I'm so tired of vicious, rabid, scum-sucking assholes like Norquist, being provided a platform to spread their evil distortions and half truths.

I wanted to cave his skull in.
I hate that I feel that way, and I hate them for making me feel that way.
The other night I ripped into a friend who is politically ignorant, and like most Republicans "know what they know" even if it's wrong and will not listen to facts or reason.
I told him that if he continued to call Hillary "that bitch" and Barack "a nigger" I was going to demonstrate to him that words have consequences and he was going to suffer a few of those consequences when I knocked his teeth out in his own backyard.

Then I left and I doubt that I'll be invited back.
And you know what?
Fuck him - he won't see me again.

I can't wait until we humiliate these assholes in November because I just can't take it anymore.
