NOT SINCE SHIRLEY TEMPLE HAS A LITTLE GIRL AMUSED AMERICA AS MUCH AS YOUNG BARRY O.
TAP DANCING AND SINGING INTO OUR HEARTS, BARRY O DECLARED, POUTING LOWER LIP JUTTING OUT, THAT BAD, MEAN OLD JOHN BOEHNER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SHUTDOWN.
MEAN OLD PRESIDENT BOEHNER!
WHY WON'T HE DO HIS JOB!
OH, WAIT. BOEHNER'S NOT PRESIDENT.
BARRY O IS!
THIS IS ON HIM AND YET ANOTHER ONE OF HIS FAILURES.
FROM THE TCI WIRE:
Yesterday, things really got shrill on the floor of Congress as US House Rep Tim Ryan screeched:
I was against the Iraq War! The Iraq War was unaffordable! The Iraq War was unpopular! 58% of the American people were against the Iraq War! Democrats didn't shut down the government! Use the political process! Which we did and won the House back in '06 and won the presidency in '08 and we wound down the Iraqi War!
KPFA played Little Coward Tim Ryan shrieking over and over yesterday and today.
Tim Ryan is offended that some against ObamaCare are willing to stand up for their beliefs.
If Little Coward Tim Ryan isn't a liar, he's just a little coward who can't take a stand, he's confessed to how worthless and useless he is:
I was against the Iraq War! The Iraq War was unaffordable! The Iraq War was unpopular! 58% of the American people were against the Iraq War! Democrats didn't shut down the government!
Unaffordable?
Try criminal. It was criminal.
And notice how he can't speak of the human costs of that war. His own guilt shames him into silence on that. He has blood on his hands and wants to attack Republicans for doing now what he was too damn cowardly to do?
As the American people are seeing right now, with ObamaCare, what you could have done to stop the Iraq War but refused to do. Because Tim Ryan was a coward.
How many people died -- and continue to die -- because of the cowardly, worthless Tim Ryan?
He threw a shrill tantrum on the floor of Congress yesterday that basically confesses to his own worthlessness and cowardice. If he had the same convictions the ObamaCare opponents do, the Iraq War could have cost a lot less lives. (Maybe even been averted. He started serving in Congress in January 2013.)
Tim Ryan: Democrats didn't shut down the government! Use the political process! Which we did and won the House back in '06 and won the presidency in '08 and we wound down the Iraqi War!
No, they didn't shut down the government. Nor did they end the illegal war as they promised they would if they got even one house of Congress in the 2006 mid-terms. They did nothing. They threatened. They got the White House benchmarks -- and then refused to use them. (US House Rep Lloyd Doggett was the only one in 2008 raising those benchmarks in hearings.) They betrayed the people of America. And, as Tim Ryan's shrill act should have gotten across, they could have stopped it in 2007 or 2008. But they chose not to.
Tim Ryan's proud moment is really just another example of the spineless and cowardly behavior Congressional Democrats displayed throughout the Bully Boy Bush years. In the Barack years? They can't show strength now either. They can only whine and bitch.
Today Noam Chomsky Tweets:
The Tweet comes on the same day The Lancet publishes Paul C. Webster's article questioning the ridiculous report the World Health Organization and and the Iraqi Ministry of Interior 'published' (released in nonsense form) last month on the birth defects in Iraq.
