Quelle surprise. Not a single Republican representative voted for Obama’s economic recovery plan. Be honest now. Did you expect any to do so?

Hell no. Their spiritual leader, Rush Limbaugh, told them all that Obama must fail, and that means that the economic recovery must fail. If it succeeds, well, that will certainly be the end of the Republicans at the ballot box for a long time. It’s not like they’ve made any secret of that.

So there they are, asking for and getting things cut from the bill, meeting not once but twice with the president, and still they all vote against it and then whine the Democrats wouldn’t listen to them.

Cry me a fucking river. These assholes are going to do their very best to stop the Democrats from being successful. But since they’re clueless and have no actual ideas other than the ones that have already been proven hopelessly and definitively failures, they won’t do much but whine and say rich people need more tax cuts.

Oh, yeah, they won’t say that out loud. But when they object to the tax cuts for working people that are already in the bill and then say that there aren’t enough tax cuts, what are we to think?

And of course there were the 11 Blue Balled, er, I mean Blue Dog Democrats who voted against it. Got one word for them — Idiots.

So here’s the deal. Republicans are not going to cooperate. They’re going to whine and cry and stomp their little feet trying to get the same bad policies we’ve already tried inserted into whatever the Democrats do. I’m not sure if they actually want the country to completely fall apart or they’re really that stupid.

Get a grip, fools. It hasn’t worked. It failed. Spectacularly. Stop. Trying. To. Do. It. Again.

I loved when Obama told the Republicans that he wasn’t going to compromise on his tax rebates for people who don’t make enough to pay income taxes. Apparently, the Republicans only consider the rest of the payroll taxes actual taxes if they’re paying them. For everybody else, they’re not real taxes.

But telling them, no, that stays as it is, was beautiful. So was the second part of what he said.

I will watch you on Fox News and feel bad about myself.

Can’t you just hear the sarcasm? And how about that bitch slap at the Republican whiner whining that he wasn’t getting what he wanted: “I won.”

That’s right, assholes. He won. You lost, big. Your way didn’t work. So quit being the obstructionists that your leaders Limbaugh, Boehner and McConnell tell you to be and relax. You’d think with all your “pro-American,” “patriotic,” “country first” rhetoric that you’d have enough sense to do that.

Apparently not.

But they really need to be very, very careful. Everything has consequences, and the consequences of pushing the country the rest of the way over the brink … well, they might not care for those consequences.

They should perhaps heed the lesson of the icey Iceland, where the crap government in Reykjavik just let that country crash and burn. The prime minister, rather than be tarred and feathered, resigned because of some esophogeal problem.

And do you know what happens next?

The lesbians take over. Booga booga.
