Just a quick video in which Rep. Gutierrez, from Chicago, completely destroy's Newt Gingrich's claim that Obama is the "Food Stamp President," including Gutierrez calling out Newt for his subversive race-baiting.

Fuck Sheldon Adelson
The casino mogul makes $3.3 million EVERY FUCKING HOUR. EVERY HOUR. and he's spending millions backing newtbag gingrich for the election. our electoral system is so beyond fucked. the wealthiest people in this country completely control our political system, and their grip on power is only going to get worse with the coming barrage of campaign money. Citizens' United will prove to be the absolute worst court decision, in our country or any other, ever. There is simply no justification for unlimited corporate spending on elections, other than the fact that republicans know they'll be able to cling to power by allowing it.

Fuck Republicans
republicans in the House of Representatives just had a documentary filmmaker arrested because he was trying to film a hearing over a controversial piece of legislation regarding hydraulic "fracking," the process by which giant oil companies destroy bedrock for natural gas, causing earthquakes and unknown environmental hazards.
apparently, trying to inform the public about the very real dangers of this process is not permissible in the eyes of these frigging cowards, which is surprising, given their supposed affinity for the constitution. this is a blatant trampling of Josh Fox's rights, and the right of all Americans to be informed of what huge companies like Hailburton are doing to destroy the environment in the name of profit. And yes, I consider that a right.
that's fucked up. but this should come as no surprise, since republicans have already been purchased by the industry.

Fuck the Waltons
Fuck the richest family in America, the Waltons, who have a combined net worth of $93 billion. If they were a country, they'd be the 59th wealthiest COUNTRY in the world. They earned a combined $2 billion on capital gains and dividends last year, which I'm sure you know by now are taxed at half the rate of income. That's nearly 5 and a half million dollars EVERY FUCKING DAY; $3,800 every fucking minute. That's how much money they make. Every ten minutes, they earn as much as many families do in a year.
and under dickwad Gingrich's tax plan, they would save more than another $300,000,000 per year in taxes.
fuck the waltons, fuck newt gingrich, and fuck the entire republican (and most of the democratic) establishment that permits for, nay lauds, this shit. this is beyond an obscene amount of money. They could get rid of 99% of their net worth and still be worth $930 MILLION FUCKING DOLLARS. Meanwhile we've got half the fucking country needing some sort of government assistance, people starving across the globe, and countless millions of people homeless both here and abroad.

UnFrigginBelievable
The Republican National Committee wants to increase the amount of corporate money in elections. I wish this was some kind of joke, but it's not. They just filed an amicus brief in the 4th Circuit arguing that Citizens' United created an unfair, 2-tiered system of campaign financing. Which it did. But their genius/dick solution to this is to try to allow for corporations to just give unlimited amounts of money directly to candidates and parties. Because they haven't yet completely drowned out the voices of US citizens.
