I have no patience or time to coddle anymore

Oh, Missouri.

Why did I know before I clicked on this that it was going to be a Republican? Seriously, if you aren't a millionaire and are still voting GOP, I have to conclude you have brain trauma. Get medical help. Soon.

I came home after a long, hard day of slogging through yet more moving stuff to the new place - which included pushing Big Furniture up stairs - and stepped on a hallway carpet absolutely soaked through. The rugs in the bathroom were soaked; even the carpet in the living room on the other side of the wall was soaked. Yet, the toilet was not overflowing. There wasn't any standing water in the floor (oh no, because the carpets AND THE NINE DRY ROLLS OF TOILET PAPER IN THE BATHROOM HAD SOAKED IT ALL UP). I don't know if this is my bathroom or the guy upstairs overflowed something; more importantly,

I.

DO.

NOT.

CARE.

I am scheduled to move the big stuff and rest of my stuff out of here in two weeks. I CANNOT leave this pit soon enough. Seriously. I am so over paying the amount of rent I pay to live in the middle of fucking nowhere in this size apartment, and the maintenance to be as bad as it is. (This is the same place that a few months ago, told me my stovetop was in perfect working order after I'd reported twice that one burner wasn't heating at all anymore. You know, because I can't tell when something ISN'T FUCKING HOT.) *sigh*

OK, maybe I shouldn't insult all Republicans. But the loud ones representing you these days make it SO easy. John Edwards looks like the first choir of angels compared to some of the horseshit I've seen coming out of GOP legislators and governors across the country for the past three months.

I totally hear you on the not caring about the apartment anymore. I felt the same way the entire last month we lived in ours, or rather I lived in ours. Still looking majorly forward to the new one. Three more months, I can hold on for three more months.

Gag. I'm sorry I wasn't more responsive when you texted--I was quite literally passing out.

Is this some sort of vast right wing conspiracy to get Obama reelected? Or am I just being punked?

Sheesh. And Newt Gingrich is back. I don't want ANYBODY to tell me that he would be a better president than Obama because of his family values. Blech!

There really is no limit to Republican depravity/hubris, is there?

The icon was once a joke, based on a line in an internal Canadian Party memo that got leaked. Now, I'm not so sure it isn't indicative of just how low Republican state Govs & Senators have sunk.

Bad enough Walker's cronies probably-illegally rammed through their "nonfiscal" union-busting bill after the Capital was declared closed here in Wisconsin.

But now Missouri's Senator Cunningham wants to eliminate child labor laws?!?

I'm beginning to think [livejournal.com profile] pir8fancier is right, and the Repubs are handing Obama the election in 2012. If the Public's memory lasts that long in states that aren't engaged in open political warfare for the next 20 months.

Another valiant effort to balance the budget and all that other important stuff the Republicans have pledged to do. o_O

I love the circus.

Don't forget, though, at the heart of all of this Republican legislation is a focus on the economy and job creation. (yeah right)
