House
Majority Sphincter
 Do
you
know what Bibi Netanyahu's appearance before
Congress
this week proved? That there is a
hard core of American conservatives
who will embrace anything, even treason
against their own country, as long as it
also allows them to publicly wallow in
their
naked,
racist
hatred of
minorities in general and President
Obama specifically.
John Boehner's unheard-of invite of the
Israeli leader violated the Constitution
as only the President has the power to "receive
ambassadors and other public ministers
from foreign governments." Yes, Boehner
violated the Constitution but who would
mete out suitable punishment?
Oh, yeah... the Congress.
Sigh.
BTW, when I say "conservatives" I
mean the rich, white men who own the GOP
lock,
stock and two smoking barrels and make
them dance like puppets for their own
amusement, and profit. And the last thing
these oligarchs want
is
for a black president to succeed. The rest
of us be damned.
You want jobs? Sorry, black man in the
White House. You want better roads and
safer bridges? Nope, too many negroes
in the White House.
You think we need banking regulations
with teeth? Uh-uh. Darkie in the White
House. You
want affordable health care? Not a chance.
Too much melanin in the White House. You
think we need a Constitutional Amendment
to take
the money
out of politics?
Not as long as Sambo's in the White House.
You want a government that pays its bills
on time? See: Negro, White House. You want
to stop climate change before it's too
late? No way, as long as it's helping a
brother out.
Yes, it's only 18 months until Hillary
is elected but take everything in the above
paragraph and replace "black man" with
"woman". Oy.
------------
 As
some of you already know I also create
a weekly 'toon especially for the good
folks
over at
The Friendly
Atheist but, the last week being the
particularly hectic morass that it became,
I neglected to share
the link with
you. So consider this a sort of make-up
post. I hope it's as good for you as it
is for me.
