Raging Bull(shit)



Now, I'll agree that Nancy Pelosi's speech was rather partisan, and not entirely appropriate (however, they don't argue about its factuality)- it was done in rather poor taste I felt considering the stakes at hand. And I'm not saying the Dems were entirely faultless, but to think that someone voted down an economic bailout bill based solely on how she hurt their feelings with her fucking speech? Regardless of whether you support or are against the proposed bailout, it would be impossible not to admit that to vote this down based solely on feeling her speech was too partisan is absolutely absurd. This was a bill designed to help get a faltering economy back on its feet.
If John Boehner & other GOP members were so against it, I have a proposal for what they should have done- they should have stopped their fucking crying, put on their big kid shorts, gotten off their fucking naptime cot, realized that recess is over, and come up with a fucking alternative! What the hell does it say about the state of our country if this shit is going on? We have elected leaders who are voting down a huge economic bill that many people have spent countless hours on (and McCain made a huge, wreckless campaign gamble on... actually it was more of a stunt)- voting it down because someone hurt your fucking feelings? What the hell. This is rifuckingdiculous.

Also, I didn't know anything about Barney Frank prior to seeing this video, but kudos to him because that was priceless.


Really, where the fuck do you get the guts to say this bill would have passed if it weren't for her speech? Kiss my ass John Boehner. You've now earned a spot on my shitlist. Lucky for you Tucker Bounds is around, and he's higher on the list. But you're working on it.

John Boehner, much like Tucker Bounds, you are the scum of the Earth- you typify much of what is wrong with American society and you do it with such panache for making the biggest asshole out of yourself possible. Fuck you, John Boehner.
