Democrats: The Party Of Paper Assholes

My father had a phrase for people that were easily offended. He said that they had "paper assholes." As a young kid I couldn't figure out what he meant, but as I matured I realized that if you had a paper bunghole you had to be very careful how you wiped yourself. Paper bungholes are very delicate and could not stand any abuse else they tear.

I don't know if he picked this phrase up in the Navy during WWII, but this was my Dad's reaction to overly sensitive whiners. He couldn't stand them and his sons were brought up in accordance with this philosophy. Lord I miss him.

But my Dad would have said it applies to so many people today. We now have a n entire generation of people who have paper assholes. They're called Democrats.

Disgruntled Democrats Want A Constitutional Convention To Leave The Union

On Tuesday, disgruntled Democrats held a forum to discuss the possibility of replacing the Electoral College.

Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) conceded that Democrats could not get rid of the Electoral College due to the way the United States Constitution is written.

“I don’t think we can sustain our American democracy by having the majority ruled by the minority. And so the question is how to fix this since the Constitution is written in such a way that it’s almost impossible to amend,” Lofgren said.

Remember the media's reaction to the Texit initiative last summer to leave the Union? Liberals pooh poohed the notion that Texas would secede, but now that their panties are all wadded up around their torn posteriors they're thinking the same thing.

The Biggest Losers

Backing the Jebster as an allegedly strong contender for the Presidency is a good way to lose your shirt. The biggest donors to the Jeb! campaign threw about $40 million into the pot.

Big-time political donors usually know they’re gambling on risky business, yet even so, the all-or-nothing nature of political campaigns means most of them go home empty-handed – since only one candidate can win, after all. The 2016 election began with roughly 20 major candidates—most on the Republican side—and at least 10 of them had super PACs able to raise six- and seven-figure donations from wealthy backers. Jeb Bush was the undisputed king of the super PACs.

Before he dropped out of the race on Feb. 20, Bush had the benefit of more super PAC money—roughly $120 million – than the next four candidates combined. His super PAC—Right to Rise—seemed likely to be the best funded in American history. Little good all that money did. In three primary states, Bush’s best finish was fourth. A campaign swollen with money never clicked with voters.

Just a few are mentioned here:
Hank Greenberg dumped $10 mil in the Bush Black Hole.
Miguel Fernandez flushed $3.2 million down the Jeb Crapper.
Ray and Nancy Hunt fumbled $2.4 big ones out of Presidential bounds.
Richard and Nancy Kinder tossed up a $2 million campaign air ball.

What a shame.

Will someone please tell me that these folks are just simple, civic-minded citizens trying to facilitate the continuance of good government? I need the laugh...
