Lords of the Lies

Well, what do you know? Today the USA is Up And Running– to somewhere. At least the Most Important areas of The Former Shutdown, such as parks and Memorial Places, will be open once more (you know, those Life-Saving Priorities of the Tea Party). And maybe, just maybe, people who were starving; without needed meds or medical treatments, will have their lives back to the Poor Normal once more.

Isn't it amazing how desperate the Eric Cantor's, Jim DeMint's (the insidious behind-the-scenes dictator of The Tea Party via The Heritage Foundation) behaved over the past few weeks?

Almost every single word they said to defend their egregious desire to ruin America just because they lost an election and disagree on social, ideological agendas, were Complete Lies! More money was LOST due to their Pointless Opposition than a rational mind can fathom.

Really, what were these people thinking (as I always ask with an eye roll)? Did no one know how much it would COST to NOT have Federal Property (parks) in working order? The parks are just one example. There is more. Check THIS out for the cost PER DAY these Wingnuts tossed to the wind while decrying the deficit and pointing pointy fingers at a president who has actually been acting like A President.

It's far more than a snide tsk-tsk against these fools. They are, as I have been writing for almost three years, CHILDREN. Bad Children. Mean Kids. Children are often seen as cute and "know not what they do" when they are mean, cranky, belligerent and hungry. We witnessed just that in Washington for 16 days. We've watched the hubris of a faction of a once-revered Grand Old Party prepare for the complete destruction of faith in the USA on the World Stage while flinging a Middle Finger to the 90% of Americans who WANT Obamacare/The Affordable Care Act, and who did NOT want us to go into a Debt Ceiling Default. Tone deaf to the Will of the Majority, wouldn't you say? Just like Unruly Kids ignoring their parents/guardians' requests for them to do their homework – or mow the lawn…all of those cliché'd chores.

"Children", in fact, may be a "too grown-up" word for Tea Baggers. How about "Babies"? Babies don't listen to their parents or caretakers because they are not quite "formed" to speak or make sense other than gesturing for what they need. They, as Babies, have an excuse for being Obtuse. Not so with The Children Of The House. As it goes, many REAL children showed more curiosity about the truth behind The Shutdown than almost everyone in The Media. (Example)

We knew it was The End when a culmination of The Crazy Thinking of the Home-Grown Terrorists trotted Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz out into the open to spew absurd hate toward an administration that, although' far from perfect, has been able to increase the economy; promote progressive and humane Social Concerns such as Gay Marriage; block Voter-Rigging; provide a Healthcare option for Americans who otherwise could not receive health insurance, etc. Seeing a Sour-Faced Ted Cruz coupled with Palin was a Last Whimpering Stand.

Yes. The GOP is in Tatters. Broken. Bitter (nothing new there), and well on its way toward extinction. And yet, the Mainstream Media – until perhaps a few hours ago – continued to report on the Latest Crisis as if Both Parties were being "stubborn." Well, hell yes the Democrats would be stubborn. Any political party SHOULD hold their ground when attacked so viciously, so disingenuously, over A LAW that requires no "negotiations or compromise."

These Lords of The Lies have shown the world just how immature they are at the core. They are, indeed, the spawn of Rabid Primitive Instincts to maim, destroy and callously turn against anyone who doesn't have a Koch Stamp Of Approval embedded in their cold, dark hearts.

And so I congratulate The Senate, most Democrats who stood behind their campaign promises, and President Obama for NOT caving this time. For now, we have a Moment Of Calm streaming across the nation. Until next time, of course. That Next Time involves repeated attacks against Medicare and Social Security. Again!

I'm rolling-up my sleeves for that fight.

Otherwise, that's all she wrote on this New Day In America

Have a Wonderful Whatever!
