Quote of the Week!

Well, as discussed here the past few days, it's, pretty much, been a Stimuluspalooza out there in the media

In last night's post, we presented on the depths of just how much the Congressional Republicans are moronic losers, incapable of seeing reality, and marching like lemmings to the tune of the Bush Grindhouse (and the drooling communicator, Reagan) economic policies.

We offered an array of commentary out there on the World Wide Web, hammering away ...

But we missed one.

And what a one it was, articulating, almost beyond perfection, the plight that is holding this country hostage.

It comes from John Cole, over on his Balloon Juice.


Speaking about the Stimulus Package, as well as noting how Joe The Plumber is "consulting" the Republicans on Economics (see "moronic losers" above), Cole penned this gem;

I really don’t understand how bipartisanship is ever going to work when one of the parties is insane. Imagine trying to negotiate an agreement on dinner plans with your date, and you suggest Italian and she states her preference would be a meal of tire rims and anthrax. If you can figure out a way to split the difference there and find a meal you will both enjoy, you can probably figure out how bipartisanship is going to work the next few years.

Along with all the openness, and transparency, that Obama is advocating, and setting in motion, he can, perhaps add in something else.

One of those giant, Looney Tunes levers, so when the Republicans keep squawking like parrots on speed, about tax cuts and spending, Obama can pull the lever, the floor opens up, and said Republicans drop into a deep, dark abyss.

Pretty much as deep and dark a place they're trying to drag us all into.
