He is just outraged!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

 Jim, when ya got guys believing what they see on the "Townhall Tipsheet" or, on a current thread on CN wherein one guy claims to see the new 11.9 supernova in M101 with his 11 x 60 binoculars with a bunch of "likes" on the post, well, all I gotta say is, " I can see Russia from my house"!...

How many rightist outrage posts does it take for you to finally realize you have a severe problem and get the mental health care you so desperately need?  sad
I think we've tried to get him the help he needs by listing free or low cost mental health clinics in Colorado before but here they are again:

Since he apparently doesn't have health care insurance, this would seem to be a viable option, particularly for one so obsessed with the outrage as him...

Can the NAACP get any more absurd than this?

Can the book banning in Florida get any more absurd than this:
"Florida School Bans Amanda Gorman’s Poem From Biden Inauguration After One Complaint"

I see the chairman of the Florida state GOP is offering to move him out of the state:
"the @FloridaGOP will help with moving costs."

Take a look at the comments from the Faux News viewership at the bottom of the Faux News article and they'll be happy to help; basically the message is get 'em all out!
Gee, I wonder why the president of the NAACP could possibly want to issue an advisory...
PS: Why doesn't the Florida GOP offer to move all of the neo-nazis they've got living there out of the state?...

He's probably pondering whether or not he would be welcomed to Florida by Ron DeSantos or just advise him not to travel there.
Beyond that, here's a recent quote from him as to why I wouldn't consider him a rational conservative Republican:
"I’m so thankful that we had President Trump in office."
Well, Russ are you?

Like Graham, Scott wants a national abortion ban. So much for SCOTUS turning it over for states-rights. I thought true Republicans championed states-rights but it appears that is if they only happen to be in agreement with it. Is Scott an election denier like Elder, too?

I wonder how Scott and Elder would respond to this : "GOP governor: ‘hunt them with dogs’
"South Carolina Democrats are demanding an apology from the state’s Republican Gov. Henry McMaster for comments he made at a South Carolina GOP convention."
"According to a Tweet from The State reporter Joseph Bustos — which was then shared by Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Jaime Harrison — McMaster said at the convention over the weekend, “I look forward to the day that democrats are so rare, we have to hunt them with dogs.”

I was part of the Civil rights movement back in the day.  

We're cutting the deficit by spending Trillions.  

The southern border is closed.  

I never discussed my son's business dealings with him.

He said he never opposed fracking.  

I was top of my class when I graduated college and had so many credits that I graduated with 3 degrees.

I had multiple scholarships to go to college.  I was the only one in my family that did.

He said "I graduated college in the top half of my class"  He finished 76th of 85 students.  

I took on Cornpop and his buddies with a chain and won.  

I was young with my father once on the street and saw 2 men kissing, and my dad said "Joey, they just love each other"

He said "I was raised by the Puerto Rican community when I was growing up".

Then he said "I was raised by the black community when I was growing up"

Then he said "I was raised by the Jewish community when I was growing up.  I spent more time in the Temple than I did in the Catholic Church". 

I was approached by a gun on AMTRAK who told me that I had a special award for riding it so much. (guy from Amtrak was dead when he claimed he talked to him)

He claimed to have essentially set the part for the Abraham accords when he did nothing at all to bring Arabs and Jews together. 

He's basically a walking, talking, lying sack of shit.  

Do you want 400 more lies he told.... In the last week?  

Are you deaf and dumb along with your willful blindness.  

I guess when you become a liberal, you develop amnesia and your brain falls out of your head.

You might want to pick it up off the floor and shove it back in your ear canal.  shocked
1. "Former Vice President Joe Biden conceded Friday that he was never arrested while trying to visit Nelson Mandela in South Africa, as he’d said on the campaign trail. “I guess I wasn’t arrested,” Biden told CNN’s New Day in a Friday interview. “I was stopped. I was not able to move where I wanted to go.”
2.  ""During the '60s, I was, in fact, very concerned about the civil rights movement," Biden, who was running for president at the time, said during a speech in 1987. "I was not an activist. I worked at an all-Black swimming pool in the east side of Wilmington, Delaware. I was involved in what they were thinking, in what they were feeling."
"But I was not out marching, I was not down in Selma," he continued. "I was not anywhere else."
3. "FACT SHEET: The President’s Budget Cuts the Deficit by Nearly $3 Trillion Over 10 Years"
4. "Closed borders":  https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/apr/26/greg-abbott-refers-bidens-open-border-policies-are/
5. Still waiting for the GOP whistleblower to provide proof, where are they?

7. " video pulls clips from real newscasts about a misstatement Biden made in the run-up to the 1988 election. But his caption — that the former vice president has been "lying about his personal life for decades" — is unproven. We found no reports that Biden repeated the claims after 1987."
"We emailed Parscale asking for the source of the video. In response, a spokesman for the Trump campaign sent us a video from the Media Research Center, a conservative nonprofit organization, from September 2019."   In a statement published in response to the Newsweek story, and covered by the New York Times, Biden said his "recollection of this was inaccurate.''    https://www.politifact.com/article/2020/may/07/ad-watch-fact-checking-video-about-bidens-academic/
"I graduated from the University of Delaware with a double major in history and political science. My reference to degrees at the Claremont (N.H.) event was intended to refer to these majors — I said 'three' and should have said 'two,’" Biden said in the statement, according to the Times.

I can go on but Rich, really, when did Trump EVER acknowledge or correct ANY of his lies or misstatements, huh?   Ever? NOPE!

Let's look at the true lies the past week from Faux:
The total BS GOP-advanced lies that Faux said it had "confirmed" but turned out to be total HS: 
Migrants who were shipped to New York were displacing American vets housed in hotels, Actually, no vets were displaced and none were even in the hotels in question and the whole bogus narrative was reportedly emanating from a GOP group that also reportedly recruited and paid homeless men to repeat the story!
Now, of course, that it's hit the fan, the GOPer's deny doing any of this and I doubt you'll ever see a retraction from Faux...
https://www.politico.com/news/2023/05/19/new-york-prosecutors-hotel-veterans-migrants-00097886
Then, Faux calls Biden a liar multiple times when he noted the number domestic terrorist threat is from white supremacists. That they are is the conclusion of the department of homeland security under Trump!
TODAY:   "White supremacists sentenced for plan to attack US electric substations"
