Remember the Purple Heart Band Aid People?
Remember them? The Purple Heart Band Aid People? I`m sure someone around here has a couple of glorious photos. These are folks that swear Max Cleland lost three limbs playing some kind of game with a hand grenade. Sort of like lawn darts, only different. You know how those Vietnam vets were...always purposely wounding themselves like John Kerry did.

I`ll bet these Band Aid People are convinced Pilgrims shared the land around Plymouth Rock with dinosaurs. Crazy you say? Aren`t they the same ones that love Petri dishes but hate Head Start Programs? The ones that salivate over a torturer revving up his electric drill but call Michael Schiavo a murderer? These are the Cheneyites who loved their little Just-Say-No team of AWOL George and five-deferment Dick. That`s what we`re dealing with...morans...just like the famous DU photo shows. You know, drive the nuclear waste to Nevada because America has zero accidents and make a law saying the government can`t negotiate lower drug prices with Big Pharma. USA! USA! USA!

Scream "unAmerican" at anyone who speaks more than one language but look the other way when some frothing rightwinger threatens the President of the United States. That`s what we`re dealing with. That`s what we`re supposed to compromise with, negotiate with. Do a little give-and-take on health care with. Know what I say? Forget them! Done. Finished. Let these morans roam around the country waving their latest Birther print outs and info on the up-and-coming white sheet sale at the mall.

I`ve pretty much had it. If the administration had spent as much time seeking the help of Progressives and supportive Independents as they have this long line of hateful racists and citizens determined to vote against their own best interests, we may have accomplished something. I`m really tired of this middle-of-the-road thing and I don`t believe that`s what voters demanded last November. Why spend the next three months begging Chuck Grassley for the almost-next-to-nothing he might give us? Stand for something and call his bluff.

10. At least that's the thumbnail version.



I've seen that same pic several times larger before.

I slept with a light on that night.

16. I have the larger version
it is stashed somewhere on an old HD. It is a good thing I forgot where it is located because, OMG, this woman makes me really want to :puke: all over the place.

A smaller version of this photograph is still difficult to take. That is because it is so grotesque! :puke:

Good thing those days are long gone anyway huh? :think:

Thanks again Mr. President Obama for helping us to forget!! :D

:dem: :kick:

12. Oh look, it's Fat Peale.
Pat Peale is a Texas Delegate who once served dinner to Karl Rove.

I'm a grandson of a Pearl Harbor Survivor. That insults every vet who served and experienced combat and lost brothers on a field. It trivializes their sacrifice. Yet, I don't know what made me even more sick to my stomach: her band-aids or the idiots who believed T Douche Pickens and his Swift Boaters that made AWOL Bewsh some kind of hero and turned a three-purple heart vet who volunteered to be a human target into a wally wussy. Unforgivable.

Thanks to loathsome piles like this, we have a mess that was almost beyond repair, and still will be should the Blue Dopes and Obstructicans have their way.

3. It's not even really "middle of the road" but veering widely to the ridiculous right.

5. They just traded their band aids for tea bags. They are still the same old
looney cabal badly in need of their meds.

13. I will never forget. I happen to rate two of those awards that they so blithely ridiculed ...
and I paid a price that those miserable bastards can't imagine. (And if I ever happen upon that sow in the picture, I will happily piss on her leg and inform her why I did so.)

15. That would be only fitting, if not sufficient.
