As the New Media emerged as a counterbalance to established media sources, Roger wrote his copious blogs about national politics, the tea party movement, mid-term elections, and the failings of the radical right to the vanguard of the New Media movement. Roger West's efforts as a leading blogger have tremendous reach. NFTOS has led the effort to bring accountability to mainstream media sources such as FOX NEWS, Breitbart's "Big Journalism. Roger's breadth of experience, engaging style, and cultivation of loyal readership - over 92 million visitors - give him unique insight into the past, present, and future of the New Media and political rhetoric that exists in our society today.

TURD BLOSSOM



After tanking the election for Romney and losing 400 million dollars of rich tea baggers money, Karl Rove is seen being escorted by police to the GOP headquarters for a good dose of water boarding, before being beheaded. NFTOS EIC Roger West


"Turd Blossom", a term of endearment given to Rove by the buffoon named Bush - has a lot of explaining to do. Having spent 400 million dollars without any ROI, [return on investment] would have any CEO pulling out their hair. Rove’s election night Faux News performance revealed exactly how much of a liar he is. Yet he continues to try and pass off obvious BS as reality.

Researchers at the watchdog group the Sunlight Foundation found that Rove’s American Crossroads super PAC came in second to last, ahead of only the NRA, in terms of how much “bang for their buck” they got in this election. The American Prospect explains:
The biggest money-waster of all, you will be eternally gratified to hear, was Karl Rove's American Crossroads super PAC, which forked out a whopping $104 million and had a “desired result” rate of 1.29 percent. That’s right, folks: The great genius of American teapublicanism wasted more of his donors’ money than anyone else. (His non-profit group, Crossroads GPS, did marginally better—a 14-percent “desired result” rate.) 

Looked at one way, American Crossroads had a kind of perfect score: The super PAC supported zero candidates who won on Tuesday.

Let us not forgot readers, that "Turd Blossom's" most heinous crime, was the outing of Valerie Plame. An incident, that still today has me pissed off!

Turd Blossom is a name to kind for this troglodyte, this HBO crypt keeper look alike, this most slimy of all teapublicans - This man would sell his own soul to the devil, and throw his own mother under the bus, to make sure that he stood out as the good guy.

I am not sure whom is the biggest asshat, "talking from the side of your mouth" Dick "Dick' Morris, or Turd Blossom.

Maddow on the Turd Blossom

Turd Blossom has proven himself irrelevant, like 99% of the American Taliban. Two words best describe this turd, pathological and liar - two words that often accommodate themselves when mentioning the current GOP.

Turd Blossom and Morris et al, suffer from "alternative reality" syndrome, where facts are eluded at all cost, where bullshitting is the norm, and where being a douche bag is mandatory.

There are a lot of billionaires angry over TB's deception and poor ability to execute a successful strategy. Somehow TB managed to accomplish nothing with his $400 million and run less advertisements than Democratic groups despite a funding advantage for the American Taliban aligned groups.

Perhaps some donors are beginning to wonder if TB not only lied about the polling data, but he may have lied about how the money was being spent as well.

INSIDE THE GOP BUBBLE

GOP ers LIVE IN A BUBBLE

Here's the reason why the right-wingers in America are so screwed up:

The Republican electorate tends to be old, racially homogenous, rural, and in most cases under-educated (the states that have the lowest rates of high school and college degrees are all red states, and 8 of the 10 most educated states are blue states). Each of those factors can be agitated pretty easily –you've been abandoned, they're coming for you, you're neglected in favor of the cities and they think you're stupid, respectively. These factors can also be easily piqued by a dogmatic politicized religion.

In combination, this creates a group of people who are paranoid, resistant to evidence and facts, and who have a preference for simple explanations and solutions.

Exploiting this phenomenon, is an amoral, highly educated, wealthy class willing to use these preferences for their individual gain. These people are in no way stupid, they're just without scruples. They have vast resources and are willing to rely on both the light and dark side of the force to achieve their continued primacy. Easiest way to do that is to manifest these resources into blaming whatever it is on the group they find most threatening.

So, when this body of people is presented with evidence that undermines what they think they know, they feel immediately threatened. These fears are stoked by their overseers so that the immediate response is hostility, rather that the more appropriate response of discovery. It also clouds everything when there is a ready-made smoke and mirrors scheme designed to pump doubt onto complicated evidence. When a scientist is proved wrong, they "were lying." When journalists deliver unwelcome news, they "have a liberal bias." When expert findings (such as science or economic analysis) are demonstrably correct but threatening to the right-wing doctrine, their methods are asserted to be flawed, or are otherwise marginalized. This makes thee GOP pro-actively reactionary.

Teapublicans live within their own convoluted bubble, a bubble so out of touch with reality, that during our latest presidential election, our country flat out denied these fruit loops the opportunity to reverse 50 years of progression.


BUBBLE ONE



 

BUBBLE TWO



 
Watch Maddow show you what we missed when we voted to deny the GOP the White House.



Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

 
For starters, to survive as a party, the teapublicans need to welcome people who believe in different things than they do, like science and math.

The GOP is imploding as we speak, from Ann Coulter, to Glenn Beck, to Karl Rove, they are all coming unglued at the seams, which at the end of the day is a good thing - for nothing is better than a pissed off tea bagger. This is what happens when one lives in a bubble.

PLUTOCRATS, NEOCONS AND BIBLE THUMPERS....


RADICAL TEA BAGGERS SENT PICK SLIPS

.......where all put on notice last night. The majority of humanity in the United States of America told the American Taliban, told the radical extreme tea bagger , that we have had enough of your lunatic fringe, enough of the 1950's mentality, and it's truly time for the sane American's to take their country back. You've held her hostage long enough.

We (the people) not only pummeled the GOP into submission, we (the people) have set in motion the demise of the long-running teapublican political strategy of hate, fear and a narrow focus on 1% of the population - the teapublican party is essentially dead - only by embracing the realities of the 21st century and not fighting against 99% of the American population will they ever be able to become a robust political alternative to the "big tent" that is the democratic party. Well done voters! It is because of you that this big ship of liberty, freedom and democracy can continue to be steered back on course.

Americans told the GOP that no amount of money can purchase a President, told the GOP that women do have the capability to shut down when need - to shut down the GOP that is. Voters said enough of this voter fraud bullshit, enough voter suppression. Americans sent a message unlike never before, Unions said hell no! Minorities outweighed the pasty white racists of the GOP, and the women of America were the firewall for the President. Hell have no fury like a woman scorned, and the American Taliban went well over the line with the war on women.

Karl Rove and the Koch brothers are invoicing Mittens for "services not rendered". Rove is in for 300 million dollars and the Koch whores are in well over 500 million, yet a majority of Americans said hell no, not on my watch!

The pasty white establishment is now the minority in America, and as a white man, I have no problem with this.

American's in the know, where pushed into a corner, and like the asp or viper, they bit back. They stood up for what is right in America, they fought for what they knew was just and right. And the fruits of their labor was rewarded handsomely.

Not only was "Binders Full O' Women" sent packing, but lyin Ryan as well, more women are now Senators - that's right, the 113th Congress will have at least 19 female senators, the most ever in U.S. history - radical one term tea baggers where sent a message to pack their bags and get the fuck out - the sooner the better!

I am not one to gloat, wait a minute, whom am I kidding, I am cheesing like a Cheshire cat. This was a big exclamation point to the GOP, and I am sure that some type of reorganizations is in order for the extreme right-wing-nut-jobs.

Hopefully the American Taliban will have something better to do this go around - rather than spending the next 4 years hating and lying about President Obama - the way they did the previous 4 Years.

If the whining and sniveling at the office water cooler was any indication this morning, then we can expect more brither trolls to morph from the green slime of the GOP.

To a very real degree, it's hard for teapublicans to even know where to start with its structural problems. Planet Kolob took many of its trolls this morning, and at the time of this writing the party has no leader. The finger pointing will be long as the American Taliban struggles to land with it's feet firmly set on terra firma.

I have spent the better half of two and a half years blogging, over 1200 blogs written, with over 35 million readers. This was my purpose, this was my mission, to ensure that my party outlasted the radical tea baggers, to see the death of the extreme plutocrats, neocons, and bible thumpers, as their ideology is no longer viable or wanted in this country. I have often asked myself - is this blog worth my efforts, after last night I received my reward, the reward of running the tea baggers out of Washington D.C., and to see Barack Hussein Obama as a two term POTUS!

It's good to see the good guys win one. My thanks to all my followers, and it's your push that keeps me at this desk blogging daily.

"I love it when I wake up in the morning and Barack Hussein Obama is President"!

"The End Of America"

Hermaphrodite Ann Coulter On Fox: If Obamacare Isn't Repealed its the end of America.

Ann, you have to stop mixing xanax with LSD darlin!

Slavery's abolition was not the end of America. Letting African-Americans vote was not the end of America. Allowing women to vote was not the end of America. Social Security was not the end of America. Unemployment insurance and worker's compensation were not the end of America. Medicare, Medicaid and Head Start were not the end of America. The G.I. Bill was not the end of America. The Miranda Warnings were not the end of America. The Civil Rights movement was not the end of America. The Environmental Protection Agency was not the end of America. The end of Don't Ask, Don't Tell was not the end of America.

Somehow I am sure America shall survive Obamacare.





William F. Buckley once described conservatives as those who "stand athwart history and yell 'stop!'". For some reason, he thought this was a good thing.

Twenty years from now, the teapublicans will be pledging that they want
to "protect" Obamacare, just as they claim they want to "protect" Medicaid and Social Security today. That's because they can't say their true goal is to destroy those programs.

Every progressive advance in human rights throughout our history was opposed by some form of these radical tea baggers. And every time they have tried to turn back the clock and eliminate one of those advances, they have failed. Bush failed to privatize Social Security and Ryan failed to killed Medicaid.

As we all know, anything not tea bagger is always going to destroy America.

TWO - FACED MITT

TWO-FACED MITT "BINDERS FULL O' WOMEN' ROMNEY

It's time NFTOS readers, it's time to send the tea baggers of America, this American Taliban - send a message that we have had enough of their shit! It's time to re-elect Barack Hussein Obama, for if not, you'll barely recognize your country in fours years.

I started blogging for this very reason two and half years ago, some 1000 blogs later, some 38 million readers later - because we cannot afford to let these radical tea baggers to lead our country, period!

I have fought for thirty years as a civilian for my country - protecting my country from radicals, and believe you me, this American Taliban I speak of is no different from the radicals I've chased in third world crap holes.

The teapublican party has been taken over by extremists, its like a iteration of the invasion of the body snatchers - this is what's confusing - when the teapublican party was centrist, now it's extremist, it's become the American Taliban we've come to not love, to hate, and this is how we got Mitt Romney.

Below, a collection of Mittens videos if you will, that should raise eyebrows, should cause alarm, and should tell you that there is no other choice for President this go around, that choice is Barack Hussein Obama!



TWO FACED




WAKE THE FUCK UP!




WILL THE REAL MITT ROMNEY PLEASE STAND UP




MITT ROMNEY'S OUT OF TOUCH MOMENTS




“Doublethink" means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them... To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just as long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies. - George Orwell (1984)

Get out and vote readers! The alternative is not an answer to the solution. There is only one way forward, and it's not the failed archaic ideology of the American Taliban - which has long since become extinct. It's time readers, it's time to vote!

BOTTOM LINE

IF MINORITIES VOTE "BINDERS FULL O' WOMEN" LOSES


If Minorities Vote, Romney Can't Win: Gaming Out the Popular Vote Possibilities.

Let NFTOS be more specific: If turnout and support is as high among minorities as polls indicate, and if President Obama gets at least as much support from white voters as Democratic House candidates did in the horrid 2010 midterm elections, then Romney cannot win the popular vote.

But you can play with the numbers yourself to predict Obama's margin, with your own assumptions.

It just takes three simple steps!

1. Pick the level of minority support you think Obama will get
Scenario 1 - 2008 levels (this is about what general polls show)
Scenario 2 - better than 2008 (this is what minority-specific polls show, see below)
Scenario 3 - 2004 levels (what Republicans are hoping for, or at least something close)
(Update: for example, in 2008, exit polls showed Obama winning the Hispanic vote by a 36 point margin, and in 2004 they showed Kerry winning the Hispanic vote by a 9 point margin.)

2. Pick your racial demographics
In 2008, the electorate was 74% white, according to exit polls. Since 1992, the electorate has been ~3.2 points less white each cycle, which would put us at 71% white this year. But Gallup says that won't happen this year, and 2012 will be the same as 2008. Meanwhile, Conventional Wisdom says minorities are bummed and won't turn out this year. Minority voters themselves say otherwise when asked.

3. Pick your level of white support
In 2008, Obama had 43% support from white voters. In 2010, House Democrats had 38%. In 1984, Mondale had 35%. Polls are currently showing around 38-41% (splitting undecideds and leaving 1.5% other.) At least one pollster is known to have overestimated white support for Democrats in 2010, however.

If Obama can do just one point better among whites than Democrats did in 2010 - 39% - (which would occur even if preferences among whites stay the same as 2010, because of greater turnout from young voters) then Obama cannot lose the popular vote as long as he maintains support among minorities at 2008 levels (Scenario 1) - and especially if he increases it (Scenario 2). It wouldn't even matter if turnout bucks history and yields an electorate 1% more white than the previous electorate. So the main question is - was 2010 a recent low point for white support for Democrats, or will it go lower? Details and explanations below the fold.

NFTOS readers, get out and vote, its only 48 hours until we decide whether to move this country forward, or take it back pre 1950's. You can vote and write the menu or you can sit back and be the menu, its you call!

RACISM VIA POLITICAL ADS


Economic issues dominated the 2012 election season, with candidates from both parties vying to convince voters that they are more qualified to create jobs and help the economy recover. But unfortunately, some campaigns and third-party groups strayed from policy issues and relied on racism to win over voters.
Below are the top 5 racist ads of the 2012:

1 In October, the Tea Party Victory Fund ran an ad suggesting that President Obama’s policies have “enslaved Americans” and showed an African American woman claiming that she received a free “Obamaphone” from the administration:



2 Former Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI), who is challenging Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), ran a Super Bowl ad showing a woman in rural China speaking broken English and thanking Stabenow because “we take your jobs.” “Your economy get very weak, ours get very good,” the woman said:



3 In a stunning appeal to Islamaphobia, a group linked to former Swiftboater and birther conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi launched a smear attack ad on a Muslim-American Congressional candidate. The spot warns that Dr. Syed Taj, the Democratic nominee in Michigan’s 11th Congressional district, wants to “advance Muslim power in America“:



4) Rep. Mary Bono Mack (R-CA) is attacking Democratic challenger Raul Ruiz for participating in Native American protests during the 1990s. “Raul Ruiz attacked Thanksgiving and our American values,” the ad claimed:



5) A Super PAC ad targeting Rep. Allen West (R-FL) over his positions on women’s rights, portrayed the Tea Party Congressman in a boxing ring throwing punches at white women. The spot pictured West in boxing gloves and with a golden tooth:

PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS

POTUS WITH 79% CHANCE OF BEING A SECOND TERM PRESIDENT


The last few days have just about caused the American Taliban a coronary. Why you ask?

The Albert Einstein of statistical analysis, also the owner of "five thirty eight blog" AKA Nate Silver, has all but called the election for President Obama. The statistician has Obama at a 79% chance of winning, and needless to say, the radical righties are livid. If facts elude this unlettered group, can we really expect them to grasp histograms, analysis of variance, better known as ANOVA? Something tells me no.

The battle has gotten so heated that Silver even tweeted to MSNBC tea bagger Joe Scarborough, that he'd bet him a thousand dollars that his data would prove correct on election day.

The wingnuts of the right keep saying that Silver is a incompetent ideologue, and why not, all this from a group who have a total collected IQ of less than 2.

Let's be realistic readers, Silver is a political polling genius. Fortunately, our most prominent numbers cruncher has been giving us the straight story, instead of capitalizing on this anxiety. Silver's accuracy last November 2008 - presidential election predictions—he correctly predicted the winner of 49 of the 50 states—which won Silver further attention and commendation. The only state he missed was Indiana, which went for Barack Obama by 1%. He also correctly predicted the winner of all 35 Senate races that same year.



Silver’s backstory reads like a quirky screenplay. While working as a transfer pricing consultant who helped companies minimize tax exposure from overseas investments, he spent his evenings and weekends perfecting an ingenious computer system for evaluating baseball players’ stats, which outperformed the analyses of many experts. A company running an Internet site for Rotisserie League fans bought his system. Silver used the money to stake himself as a full-time online poker player, quickly earning $400,000. Shortly thereafter, congressional grandstanding before the 2006 midterm elections stifled the online poker business with regulations, leading the best professional players, deprived of the overconfident amateurs they had been feasting on, to go after players like Silver. He lost $130,000. So he turned to politics, attempting to predict the partisan composition of the next Congress to help him decide whether to cut his losses and move on from poker. Thus was born the sideline that became fivethirtyeight.com.

This Prediction is bad news for the American Taliban, and we all know how much teapublicans like to delude themselves. You know, the flat earth mentality, the earth was created in 6 days, 6000 years ago, man has had no impact on the climate, and as everyone knows, tobacco is perfectly harmless.

I say step up Joe. You have considerably more wealth than Silver. How confident are you? Take the bet, put you money where your mouth is!

Binders Full O' Women Proves He Is 100% Schmuck

Binders Full O' Women Helping Victims His Own Way

BuzzFeed's McKay Coppins reports on the making of Mitt "Binders Full O' Women" Romney storm relief stunt (emphasis added):
The plan was for supporters to bring hurricane relief supplies to the event, and then deliver the bags of canned goods, packages of diapers, and cases of water bottles to the candidate, who would be perched behind a table along with a slew of volunteers and his Ohio right-hand man, Senator Rob Portman. To complete the project and photo-op, Binders Full O' Women would lead his crew in carrying the goods out of the gymnasium and into the Penske rental truck parked outside.
 But the last-minute nature of the call for donations left some in the campaign concerned that they would end up with an empty truck. So the night before the event, campaign aides went to a local Wal Mart and spent $5,000 on granola bars, canned food, and diapers to put on display while they waited for donations to come in, according to one staffer. (The campaign confirmed that it "did donate supplies to the relief effort," but would not specify how much it spent.)


Not that you needed any more evidence that Binders Full O' Women's event was more about helping his campaign than helping storm relief victims, but the fact is the only reason they collected supplies is because they thought it would make for a better picture than encouraging financial donations. The thing is that the Red Cross does not ordinarily accept physical goods because processing them is a logistical nightmare; instead, they ask for financial donations.

But apparently Binders Full O' Women campaign bullied the Red Cross into accepting the physical goods that they didn't want, because by the end of the day yesterday, the campaign was distributing a statement from the Red Cross thanking them for their donations.

Binders Full O' Women's campaign told reporters that a Red Cross warehouse in New Jersey was accepting the donation, and distributed a statement they attributed to the Red Cross.
"The American Red Cross appreciates the support from the Binders Full O' Women campaign and is working with the campaign to process this donation of supplies," the statement read. "We are grateful that both the Obama and Binders Full O' Women campaigns have also encouraged the public to send financial donations to the Red Cross. We encourage individuals who want to help to consider making a financial donation or making an appointment to give blood."

That statement is a polite way of saying: "Please don't do what the Binders Full O' Women campaign did with physical goods because we don't need the logistical challenge of processing donations of supplies. Instead, please make a financial contribution or donate blood." In other words, if Binders Full O' Women wanted to help he should have donated the $5,000 instead of spending it on props to make his storm relief photo op look good.

If you where a compassionate person, you might like to give folks like this assclown the benefit of doubt. I'd like to think that maybe Mitt is just being pulled in lot of different directions, then again, not! This story is the epitome of a desperate out of touch teapublican - and this story only confirms that binders full O' women is a true freaking schmuck!

How low can the binders full O' women campaign go? There appears to be no bottom to the depths they'll sink to make themselves look like something we all know that they are not. This desperate group maybe a bottomless pit. Are they incapable of embarrassment or shame? Oh, sigh, never mind.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO REPSOND TO QUICKLY?

Failed FEMA Director Michael Brown

Former FEMA Director Michael Brown offered criticism of President Obama’s early responses to Hurricane Sandy yesterday, including a dig at the administration’s response to last month’s attack in Libya.

Yesterday, ahead of the storm’s pummeling of the eastern seaboard, Brown gave an interview to the local alternative paper, the Denver Westword, on how he believed the Obama administration was responding to Sandy too quickly and that Obama had spoken to the press about Sandy’s potential effect too early.

Brown turned then to a reliable right-wing attack on the President’s response to the attack on a U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi that killed four Americans:
“One thing he’s gonna be asked is, why did he jump on [the hurricane] so quickly and go back to D.C. so quickly when in…Benghazi, he went to Las Vegas?” Brown says. “Why was this so quick?… At some point, somebody’s going to ask that question…. This is like the inverse of Benghazi.”

Conservatives have been hitting Obama for weeks on his attendance at a fundraiser in Nevada following the assault in Benghazi, claiming at alternate times that the President either cared more about politics than lives lost or that he was trying to downplay the attack’s significance. Now the critique has mutated into a belief that Obama is currently “playing President” to score points during disaster relief in the run-up to the election, in contrast to his actions in September.

Brown is not the only one making the insinuation that Obama and his administration are responding too quickly to Sandy only for political reasons. He’s joined in his accusations by such prominent right-wing commentators as former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and columnist Charles Krauthammer.

However, Brown’s comments carry a special irony due to the role he played during the Hurricane Katrina debacle in 2005. As director of FEMA during the legendarily botched response, Brown, famously dubbed “Brownie” by President Bush, was in the center of criticism from both sides of the aisle that the Bush administration was too slow to respond. An internal review by the Department of Homeland Security’s Inspector-General following the disaster concluded, “Much of the criticism is warranted.” Brown resigned from his position as director less than two weeks after Katrina hit.

FRANKENSTORM IS HERE, HOW WOULD BFOW RESPOND?

Don't expect this if Romney wins the Presidency

BFOW = "Binders Full Of Women"

The federal government’s ability to respond to natural disasters, like Hurricane Sandy currently bearing down on the East Coast, would be significantly hindered under a Romney-Ryan administration.

At least three times, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have publicly demanded that the federal government only disburse disaster relief funding if Congress agreed to offsetting budget cuts elsewhere. This would hold desperately-needed disaster relief funding hostage unless Congress agreed to cuts elsewhere in the budget, an extraordinarily difficult prospect even in normal circumstances.

Though GOP Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) became the public face of such intransigence in the wake of natural disaster last year, Romney and Ryan have repeatedly made clear they agree with Cantor’s position.

Last year, after a major tornado and flood struck the United States, Romney was asked in a debate about federal disaster relief funding. Romney not only suggested shuttering FEMA and sending responsibility for disaster relief “back to the private sector,” but also said it would be “immoral” for the federal government to fund disaster relief efforts without cutting the budget elsewhere. “It makes no sense at all,” Romney concluded.





Ryan’s 2012 budget took a similar approach to disaster funding. As The Hill noted in May 2012, Ryan’s budget called for any disaster relief funding to “be fully offset within the discretionary levels provided in this resolution.” In other words, Congress would have to agree on cuts elsewhere in the budget if it wanted to dole out funds after a disaster. This idea was so far out of the mainstream that even Republican legislators abandoned the idea. Ryan opposed Obama’s efforts to build significant funding for disaster relief into the budget, a move intended to avoid the kinds of delays forced by Cantor and the Tea Party last year.

This is not a new position for Ryan. Long before he entered the political limelight, Ryan was still pushing a similar line on disaster funding. In a March 23, 2004 speech on the House floor, Ryan proposed that any emergency spending legislation, including disaster relief, be automatically offset by an “across-the-board” budget cut. After proposing legally-binding spending limits, Ryan bemoaned the fact that these emergency spending items “do not have to be paid for under our current budget rules.” Automatic cuts, Ryan explained, would help Congress offset funding that went to disaster relief.

FRESH CAN OF NUTS

Bill Maher used his final New Rule last Friday night to warn voters unhappy with President Obama of the political and social consequences of the other guy winning. Maher argued that "Binders full O' women" winning the presidency would not just be a victory for him, but for every teapublican extremist BFOW [Binders full O' women] has ever supported in his recent political career. Maher said BFOW “may seem like a nice fella,” but he’s “a compulsive liar whose whole life is secret” and would bring too much unwanted baggage into a relationship with America.

Maher also warned about the “fresh can of nuts” in Congress with wildly anti-scientific beliefs that would have more free reign under a Republican administration. Maher said that a Republican in the White House would mean the return of “Bible-thumping bullshit” in government.

Before the Romney bit, Maher deservingly so, slams Donald Trump as his mother. [a must see].






9 days until voting day, get out and vote, and realize a vote for the right is a vote solidifying your reconnection with the 1950's.

"MY PARTY IS FULL F RACISTS"

RADICAL GOPers STILL FULL OF RACE


Former Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed President Barack Obama for a second term Thursday, and the American Taliban is in full mode 'bat shit crazy" angry.

Front man to 'binders full O' women" aka assclown Romney surrogate John Sununu is calling General Powell everything but the "N: word, and his race baiting is in high gear.

Sununu on Piers Morgan:
Sununu: Well, I'm not sure how important that is. I do like the fact that Colin Powell's boss, George Herbert Walker Bush, has endorsed Mitt Romney all along. And frankly, when you take a look at Colin Powell, you have to wonder whether that's an endorsement based on issues or whether he's got a slightly different reason for preferring President Obama.
Morgan: What reason would that be?
Sununu: Well, I think when you have somebody of your own race that you're proud of being president of the United States, I applaud Colin for standing with him.

Now enters retired Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, once Chief of Staff to General Colin Powell, [staunch republican] blasting Sununu and his radical party by saying:
My party, unfortunately, is the bastion of those people -- not all of them, but most of them -- who are still basing their positions on race. Let me just be candid: My party is full of racists, and the real reason a considerable portion of my party wants President Obama out of the White House has nothing to do with the content of his character, nothing to do with his competence as commander-in-chief and president, and everything to do with the color of his skin, and that's despicable.

Col. Wilkerson GOP slam starts at 2:49:

Let's be clear readers, the GOP is not interested in reducing the race spectrum. This history of race baiting since POTUS took office is long and disgusting.

This isn't the first time Powell has been accused of an endorsement based on race. In 2008, Rush Limbaugh, among others, insinuated that Powell's endorsement of Obama was motivated by skin color.

Sununu is certainly no stranger to incendiary rhetoric this election cycle, once calling the President "lazy". This is the mindset of the white pasty mans mind when its hooked on teabagger.

Momma always said. "show me your friends and I'll tell you whom you are". Mitt Romney's friends are, John Sununu, Richard Mourdock, Donald Trump, and anyone working for Faux News. Confessions of a GOP racist is a startling article, read it, and you'll see that racism is as strong as it was in the 1860's.

Yes Col. Wilkerson is a GOPer, but at least he is an honest GOPer, which is rare in our word circa 2012.

Had enough? Me, too. And, believe me, this is the Cliff Notes version. Some people are offended by frank conversation about violence, especially sexualized violence. I'm offended by the tolerance for these assaults, scientific denialism, entertainment at the expense of people's safety, bodily integrity, and shame-infused legislation that hurts children and women - and is based on the belief that all pasty white men of the GOP are animals at heart.

GOP AND THEIR IMMACULATE CONCEPTION

Lets face it NFTOS women readers, under the American Taliban regime you're less than a third class citizen. If ye thinks not, watch the below four videos, and if it doesn't sink in, watch them until it does.

Obviously I am not a female, but this fecal matter disgusts me to know end. Women and only women - should be deciding the fate of their own person, their own body parts, and what to keep and what not to.

I find myself in wonderment, that circa 2012, that pasty white men still think it's OK to control a women's right to her own body. Yes, straight out the 1950's radiation bomb shelter to your vagina ladies.

I wonder where this mentality is derived from, is it the gene pool, do they learn this from their parents growing up, do they learn this at their Southern Baptist bible revivals? How can any man say that a baby conceived from rape is "GODS Will"!? This is understood as a crime to most humans, but is considered by the American Taliban as the  "immaculate conception".

Is it ignorance, is it a lack of education?

This is not just the Todd Akin's and Richard Mourdock's of the world, this is the ideology of the radical right fringe - the very lunatic fringe that has the moderate conservative held hostage.

Why does an American female support the very beings that want to keep them down, barefoot and pregnant if you will? Like the Samuel L. Jackson video, hey women "wake the fuck up"!
