Let Them Drink Piss

You can't make this shit up, folks. If this doesn't bring out the pitchforks and torches, nothing will.

Republicans had a beer bash with the passage of Trumpcare in the House.

Oh, but wait...it gets better.

via The Slot:

In response to the vote, House Democrats, confusing the reality of a politics mapped onto the body with a SEC football game, sang “Hey, hey, hey, goodbye,” at Republicans. I suppose somebody, somewhere thought this was a witty symbol of resistance rather than a depressing example of the empty spectacle of American politics.

Democrats were initially holding out hope that they could convince 22 Republicans to abandon their party and vote against the bill. In the end, only 20 Republicans voted against the AHCA, many of whom represent swing districts. California Congressman Darrell Issa cast the 216th vote, pushing the bill over the top. Nevertheless, Democrats sang.

That's right. Democrats sang. Stupid fucks.

I completely thought,"WTF!?" when I heard they sang that song.

That had to be organized.

If only there were a piece of video that demonstrated how much American and geopolitics are governed by High School rules, this would be it.

Completely unreal.

Losers, losers, losers. When the Dems had all branches of government, no one sang on the Republican side, they just organized and re-grouped to get these idiots out of power. So, baby-boomers kiss your old age coverage good-bye such as it was.

wavers at TOP.

The Dem Party Neoliberals are a faction of jr high mentality, "Go Team Go" pride-in-their-school-colors, privileged idiots, just as much as this low grade moron/boorish buffoon of a president is. Drumpf as usual bringing out the worst in the plastic opposition, who early are so easily pulled down to his level. Pathetic.

It just leaves everybody else with half a brain who are having to suffer through this sophomoric inanity, so representative of today's scraping-the-bottom-of-the-barrel politics, more in search of Bernie, who by now without question, is the only adult in the room.

And it leaves more and more folks concluding the obvious: 3rd Party Now. A party headed by monkeys would now be a serious threat to the duopoly. A party with Bernie at its head would obliterate both for all-time.

Modern education is little more than toeing the line for the capitalist pigs.

I assumed it was the Republicans who were singing - which does make a modicum of sense given their sick and twisted outlook.

But now I see that it was actually the Democrats who were singing "Hey Hey Goodbye!" with the gusto of drunken sailors during the sinking of Obama's signature legislation?

The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?

the election for them. But they just can't help themselves. Saying we're less worse than they are is spineless.

With each successive ploy, these arrogant, pompous, clueless buffoons just keep an screaming to all and sundry how fucking out-of-touch they truly are. This is what they call leadership and strategy.

Just trading places, they are, as the Party of No. Which is the game of American politics: it's all a charade for the MSM to dazzle us with, and obviously just a game to them.
