Just in case you were wondering, the Republican party is definitely betting the house that another terrorist attack will restore their lost relevance

You know, I suppose it'd be easy to view the ad below that was posted to staggering dildo John Boehner's YouTube page as just another Republican scare ad. It has all the hallmarks of every other ad like it that they've run over the past few years. Ominous and painfully overly-dramatic score stolen straight from the trailer for a Michael Bay movie. Images of jihadists training to kill AMERICAN BABIES. Shit being blown up. But there's something about this one, and I can't quite put my finger on exactly what it is, but there's something about this one that just screams, "yeah, we've come to terms with the fact that we're an impotent, intellectually bankrupt body whose only hope for regaining power is to sit around hoping a foreigner can blow up something in a major American city again so we can scream, 'WE TOLD YOU SO.'"

I mean, really, it's just so fucking pathetic. They really do have nothing better to offer than this insane horseshit...


(via The Awl)

What makes this even more pathetic is that when I really take a minute to objectively ponder the question at the heart of the ad, whether or not I feel safer under an Obama presidency, the answer is a resounding YES! Yes Republican dipshits, I DO FEEL SAFER under a president who isn't going around taking shits in the flower gardens of our friends and neighbors! Because you know what? That's usually what results in getting a brick thrown through your living room window!

Didn't these assholes learn anything in kindergarten?

I feel safer too. Just for the record. I am also sure they are plotting something, making it look like an attack, just so they can say they told us so. Even though they are the ones behind it. But whatever. They are all going to hell anyway.

Lots of times I find myself sitting around the house thinking, you know what would mellow me out right now? Some doomy violin. Like "something's gonna be a coming for me" kinda strings. Just to make my heart flutter and sigh. So, this was like a soft nap.

I'm also running out of space to keep my own leftover prisoners so I totally sympathize with Barack.

Another favorite.

And although I don't consider myself a conspiracy theorist by any stretch, I found myself nodding to Sunshine's comment. That's how low my opinion of the far right has dropped. I have become more terrified of them as a group than any other potential threat to the people of this country - and I believe many of them have become so raving that they're capable of just about anything.
