Lying
In Wait.
Ahhh,
Mitt Romney. The gift that keeps on giving.
As an investor his business
techniques resulted in
fewer jobs as his pathway to profit relied on firing
employees and cutting their benefits. And yet, if elected
president, he's claiming
he can create 500,000 jobs a
month. Color me a weeee bit skeptical.
You see, that
feat has been accomplished only five
times since 1960...
once by Ronald Reagan, once by Bill Clinton, twice
by Jimmy Carter, and once by Barack Obama.
Yes! 4-1 in favor of the progressives. Democrats take
the series.
The Republicans used this exact same lie of "Jobs!
Jobs! Jobs!" in the 2010 mid-terms and they have done
nothing
to
create jobs since. NOTHING.
And, just an FYI, the last time the unemployment rate
was at 4 per cent was in 2000. Thank you, Uncle Bill.
Fuck
you,
George
Bush.

If forced ultrasound wasn't
such a serious topic I might have impishly labeled
this cartoon "Speak your
piece" or "Spreading the news"
or even "Help me find my F-16 and we'll fly outta here
and strafe the Republican National Headquarters." But
I didn't.

Notes, Notes, and More Notes.
Sleaze: Immediately after the
election of Barack Obama heads of the Republican Party
and their oligarch pals met and together devised
a plan to unseat the president. It involved obstructing
everything the president wanted, including improving
the economy.
That's not politics, that's sabotage.
Police Report: New York police lie
about a brutal
arrest. Now face jail time. Fort Lauderdale cop
does the
same thing. Same result. Philadelphia cop forces
man to give him nonconsensual oral
sex, in 2007. He's still on the
job but finally headed for trial. Meanwhile, New York
police are
systematically sexually
assaulting peaceful female protestors.
And
this is
a Free Speech Unit.
Politics: Right Wingers often
share the sad story of a 5-year-old boy who was
physically assaulted and chastised by his teacher
for
praying over his lunch. It
never happened.
Science Nerdgasm: Have you ever
seen lithium
burn? In slow motion? It's kewl!
Heresy: Bottled
water is the
tool of the Devil... its TRUE!
Humor: "Mitt Romney was
on the 'Today Show' and admitted he likes to
read the 'Twilight' books and watch 'American
Idol.' If elected, he would be the 1st Mormon
and the 1st 13-year-old girl to be President." — Jimmy
Kimmel
