Republican’s like Dave and Rick Jensen (let me throw in Rick too because Smitty is having too much fun pretending to not know what I am talking about) got everything they ever wanted from Bush. They were riding high and giving high fives around Baltimore with Tom Delay and life is sweet when you are writing billions of dollars in bad checks and shoving cash in each other’s pockets.
Only, everything they wanted completely fucked the country (and the world). Now they act like guys who burned down their house and the very next day they wake up in a hotel room with amnesia and start saying shit like, “What we need around here are some oil soaked rags and maybe some open containers of gasoline.”
It isn’t amnesia thought. It is calculated. Republicans like Dave and Rick Jensen are already thinking about the next election, because it is always about the election with these guys and never about the country. Their dog whistle rants are still 100% wrong, but they are mother’s milk to the nit wit Republicans who listen to talk radio.
You think I’m being harsh? Well, here is a reality check. In his rant Dave takes his usual “Wah…my taxes are too high..” tact and throws in GOP chestnut, “The government is too big and full of cronies…Wah!
Sounds good right? Reasonable. Except guess how many times Dave called out Nancy Wagner for putting her goofball husband in a cushy state job? Exactly zero times once in a “cover your ass” effort ginned up by the GOP. Never on his blog.
Republicans like Dave don’t give a shit about fixing anything, they care about creating election year issues. it is all a game to them and they play their part, so sleazy scum like Charlie Copeland can lie in wait and beat the same drum on the campaign trail.
