Smokin' Joe

What's up with Alaskan politicians? We all know Sarah Palin is crazier than a barrel of flying monkeys, and the late Senator Ted Stevens was forced out of office on corruption charges shortly before his death. But the blatant hypocrisy of GOP senatorial candidate Joe Miller is poised to eclipse all previous Alaskan political shenanigans.

Like so many of his NeoCon Teabagger counterparts, Miller preaches smaller government while digging both hands up-to-the-elbows in the public trough. It's not enough that his wife was on his payroll when he was a federal magistrate (are there private magistrate jobs? Methinks not.), but then she collected unemployment after leaving her position! Worse, Miller collected farm subsidies for properties he owned in Kansas and Alsaka. That's a nice, big triple-dip into public monies, Joe. Seems like he's opposed to government payouts . . . unless they put cash into his pockets.

But the Fox "News" dumbed down Teabaggers won't hear these facts; if they did, the lemmings still wouldn't change their votes because somehow, somewhere, they know Miller stands for Freedom and God and he will restore Honor and Apple Pie . . . while the Democrats will only raise taxes; force their Grannies into suicide centers and their sisters into abortion factories; make the Supreme Court follow Sharia law; and abolish free speech, the right to bear automatic weapons, gasoline automobiles, and Bibles.

They are so far down the Glenn Beck rabbit hole they cannot understand the simple truth that the largest increase of the national debt in American history occurred on Raisin Brain's watch. The others in the top? Reagan and Pappy Bush. The only time the debt decreases is when Democrats are in control. And the only time the middle class is supported and assisted is when Democrats are in power.

But Republicans don't pretend to represent people anymore, they only care about corporations. And now that, legally, corporations are classified as "people," there's no need for pretense anymore.

Wake up, you remaining middle-class sheeple, before you vote yourselves into extinction.

Kathy never expected a career in radio as a talk show producer. Born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, Kathy was completing her nursing degree when in 2001 - in an emergency - she was asked to fill in as the producer of Mike's program. Within a few (more...)
