- The reason for Obama’s crazy socialist agenda is that he has fried his brain on marijuana, cocaine, cigarettes, booze and jet lag.

Just an observation…but 20 years of alchoholism does a lot more brain damage than a few years of smoking pot. Yet “Babe” didn’t seem concerned when the brain-damaged allegedly former alchoholic was behind the wheel & driving us off the cliff.

WTF?????
But what does she have to say about George W. Bush’s self-admitted alcoholism and (supposed) redemption and conversion to sobriety?
I notice that is noticeably missing from this hard-hitting expose of the drink, drugs and tobacco habits of world leaders.
Quite frankly, nothing makes sense anymore Yeah, honey. I can show you one example.

Ugh. Does Renewed Merkin make a point of only hiring idiots who can’t write? I mean, the content is no surprise – if there’s even the tiniest thing they can latch onto for the purposes of slandering Obama, they’ll sink their teeth into it, but the writing is just dreadful.
Did they just give this moron a crayon and a Republican talking point and set her loose?

sarah,
Yeah, he’s pretty good. I would have liked to see him knock the pubbie’s head off with facts a bit more, but for an off the cuff defense it was well done. Ferinstance, when that schmekl started spouting that if only the Dems would make a bill out of tort reform and letting the insurance co.s go interstate, the Republicans would be sweetness and light, Grayson really ought to have mentioned that cowtowing to Republicans is what got us the fetid, gangrenous abortion we call the Baucus Bill in the Senate, and there aren’t but one or two of them that are going to vote for it anyway. That, and when whatsherface started playing the scold, he should have crammed a few choice “death panel” and “the Democrats are going to kill grammaw” quotes up her ass and remind her that the GOP House leadership was engaged in heavy petting with the astroturf assholes who spent the month of August murdering comity and decorum in town hall meetings.
Other than that, thumbs up. Like the man said, he’s only been at it for eight months. He’s got some time to polish the act. I don’t know what the fuck excuse the rest of the Dems in Congress have.

The delicious part about Grayson’s media trolling is that he’s actually effective at doing what the Wingnuts might have done (or tried to do and failed) with the whole “Death Panels” thing: throw out the bait and then use the coverage generated by the controversy to make your point.
Fortunately for Democrats (and the country) the Wingnuts had no second act; they drew the Eye of Mordor well enough, but with no plan of their own and no real point to make, they squandered the attention on ZOMG TEH BLACK HEETLERZ bullshit.

I’m surprised she didn’t throw opium in there, too, and then she’d have the racist trifecta (black, brown and yellow).
Alcohol, being the white man’s drug, is of course exempt from such consideration (and ,non-coincidentally, quite legal)

I demand that Representative Alan Grayson apologize immediately for the comments appearing in this blog post.
Jennifer said,
October 1, 2009 at 15:28
Yes, good for Grayson for at least poking a stick in the hornet’s nest. He’s getting closer to doing what I’ve been saying needs to happen: for someone to just stand up and say “the only reason we haven’t fixed this a long time ago is that some people in this country are getting rich by allowing others to go without healthcare and die when they get sick.” He just went with the shorter. The only problem with the shorter is, it’s not really the heart of the matter and so leaves out not only the guilty members of Grayson’s own party, but also leaves room for Republican whining and faux outrage. Republicans don’t really want people to die when they get sick; that’s a bug, not a feature. The feature is for as many of their campaign benefactors to profit from each and every sick person as possible. If the only way to earn a profit from a sick person is to allow them to die, so be it. They’re being aided and abetted by Democrats such as Nelson, Lincoln, Baucus, et al, who, while shamelessly looking out for the health of the health insurer shareholders’ earnings over and above the health of their constituents, are getting a free pass whenever this is not stated directly, succinctly, and to-the-point.
But, having at least one representative willing to stand up and point to the turd in the punchbowl, which in Washington terms is the height of incivility, is a big step in the right direction. It’s the only way things like this ever get addressed.

George W. Bush’s self-admitted alcoholism
Didn’t we get non-denials on cocaine and marijuana use, too? He refused to say outright whether he’d used pot “[b]ecause I don’t want some little kid doing what I tried,” and on using cocaine said “I haven’t denied anything.” He would only say he could answer truthfully to not having used drugs in 15 years when asked in 1989.

Tintin: Inspired use of skillet-and-eggs.
I want to see people like Grayson just throw up their hands, in public, on tv, etc., and say, “You know, the hell with it. I can’t pretend to be bi-partisan. These people are liars and mercenaries. Show me a Republican party with half an ounce of concern for actual people and actual democratic values, and I’ll work with it. Until then, it’s just too demeaning to have to take them seriously.”

So the war-hero with a beer-heiress wife not only lost to a black man – he also lost to a STONER?
Mmm, this lady really knows how to make liberal-fascist Islamohomoabortionists smile, eh?
He would only say he could answer truthfully to not having used drugs in 15 years when asked in 1989.
Which (like his claim to many years of sobriety) is totally believable, much like his pledge to give up golf for Teh Troopz was.
