JEAN YOU IGNORANT SLUT
I spend a lot of time here thrashing on the Big Cheese (Cheney) and his willing accomplice (Bush) in the executive branch. As much fun as that is, sometimes I'm reminded of the deep well of mock-worthy asshats and loons in the legislative body. This past friday's impressive display of unhinged, ignorant asshattery on the floor of the House was one of these times.

The ugly display that erupted can be blamed on a number of individuals, but there was no bigger fool then the freshman congresswoman from Ohio, Jean Schmidt. This disgrace of a woman, looking like the Wicked Witch of the West dressed up in Evel Knievel's jumpsuit, used her floor time to call Rep. John Murtha, a highly-decorated veteran and near universally respected member of Congress, a coward. While I predicted the GOP would smear the guy, I had no idea it would be so blatant.
As vicious and dumbheaded as Schmidt’s attack was, her defense was almost worse. First, her colleagues in the House claimed that “the poor lady didn’t know Jack Murtha was a Marine.” WTF? Does NOBODY in this administration read newspapers? Oh, and one other problem, the Marine Schmidt claimed to be quoting revealed today that he never called Murtha, or any marine, a coward. So basically she’s not only stupid, but also a big, fat liar. And a fashion nightmare on top of it all.
One Good Move has the complete video of all hell breakin’ loose. (courtesy of Countdown) Seriously, who elected these creatures? It’s absolutely terrifying that they're running the country. I do hope the Flying Spaghetti Monster will help us.

would there first album be called 'Wingnuttery'? Or perhaps we could call it: 'Houses of the Holy Shit are you really that stupid?'.
