For some people this week will be grabbing the low hanging fruit. Screw you, these were some of the biggest moments of idiocy for one reason or another and they were more picked up from the grass then on a low branch, but let us begin. Plenty of stupid so little time, off we go.

Colbert Tells Trump to Holster Putin

Which why do I go? Which way do I go? If I think the remarks are okay a group of people will call me homophobic, and if I don’t raise the banner to get him fired than a group of people will think my political blood is so far in the blue it might as well paint a Pepsi can. Considering one can look at agreeing with people for its own sake like one might look at an incestuous orgy which is easy enough to understand because I do that really it just boils down to which way does one more person go?

My answer can best explained with meh. Should there be a punishment? Yes. Should he be fired? I can’t really see it. It was a joke, albeit a joke in horrid taste and one that didn’t need to be there it was still just done for a chuckle with the majority of people. Some took personal insult by it where none was meant meaning that another group of people jumped the gun to play the victim.

Really, we live in a world where we can’t look at someone’s work over their career and make a judgment call just shows the most people who the most fervent soldiers in this little battle of opinions should sit down, shut up, and let smarter creatures handle such things. Stephen Colbert goes far with his jokes sometimes, but one would really have a task to build a case proving he is homophobic.

The opinion here is that people are being stupid overreacting for and against. Colbert should do something of an apology, volunteer some time or resources to an LGBT assistance charity, and let the whole thing lie. Getting so mad about the whole thing just shows that we are clearly dumber as a group than as a person which is really sad. If you don’t like that, well to put this in simple terms, fuck off.

Puerto Rico Goes Bankrupt

This to me is a much bigger project than the Colbert issue, but considering a group of people cannot spell bankruptcy let alone put it in a sentence makes this one even more aggravating. For the first time in our country’s History (United States, for those, reading this from the rest of the world, and thank you for doing that I appreciate your support.) a territory is going bankrupt to the tune of just over 120 billion dollars. That may be enough to pay for everyone’s college loans or give everyone a stipend that wouldn’t suck the corn from a pile of paperwork covered bullshit.

In any case, it is an absurdly high amount of money that is only eclipsed in my mind by the debt the nation carries which holds the title of most bonkers spending problem ever in the history of history. Learning of the national debt brought a small trip of learning that an entity could be in the hole that much without having the kneecaps figuratively whacked. It is not the country that is claiming bankruptcy right now it is Puerto Rico, and with a much smaller wallet to work from having a debt over a hundred billion dollars makes it a major problem especially once you realize that the pension obligation is 18 billion of that debt.

That means it will need to pay people 18 billion dollar worth of money with absolutely nothing. You ever been stiffed in a bonus? It makes you want to rack everyone in your way in the junk with a taser until your money is in your hand. Multiply that by the thousands of cases it would take to make that total, and we see a huge number of people who are relying on that for possibly their only income may not be there. This is not a problem, this is a financial disaster. We as a country need to find out where the money went as being a territory, they do get funds from the country and figure out what problems they had made to see how we can best attack it because as it stands there could very well be a lawsuit brewing against this. People who have bought bonds will not be getting their full investment making it a huge problem with anyone trying to collect, and this just snowballs the effect from one group of people to another with some people caught in different waves making everything a gigantic mess.

The brilliant people in the pair of parties have boiled to either help them out without any info or not do anything until we get info. Which means absolutely nothing because we have a portion of our country that decided to try and stand on its own and failed so we have to go and help them while simultaneously making sure this cockup cascade does not happen again. They decided their language should be Spanish with a country that works with English making it more difficult for any businesses to come in. We need to help our people and look at the problems. Time will only create more damage if we go with one or the other because action gets things done when words cannot, and the fact they no one seems to go look for info while trying to correct other problems they already know about makes one wonder what the do in those halls of government other than get free blow jobs from groups who just want to talk about a contract.

Hillary Blames Others For Failure

It is clear that our other candidate in the past presidential election has gone completely bonkers. Hillary Clinton has come out of her depression exclaiming how it was not her fault for losing the election, but Wikileaks, Russia, and the F.B.I after claiming she took absolute responsibility which makes either an idiot or someone unfamiliar with the term absolute. In any case as someone who voted for Bernie Sanders maybe I can help explain to those who believe Mrs. Clinton that they are by all testing completely bat-shit fucking insane. I will no make a list of reasons where you can just suck a dick the size of a lunar module if you think your comments are going on this post. Some of you out in the world are petty like that and I take no small amount of glee making you deal with the cold wind of reality.

Let us begin. Benghazi, this was something in my opinion that I thought all major politicians had on their record. A few major screw-ups make the record all the more colorful in that depressing jaded sort of way looking at the record of every lifetime politician that has at the same time screwed everything up while getting nothing done. E-mail incident, if you can seriously think that someone who has been in politics that long would make the most idiotic mistake when it comes to security then you obviously give much more mercy than I do. The whole DNC conspiring to help her win was the one the soured my whole view on her, because if she needed backup from the Party in such a way that one who had severe mental deficiencies could see the deck stacked against Sanders. When that news came out I had to triple check because I could not believe it, Sanders did his best to get his voters to her, but after that info came out there was a lot of voters who thought they would rather vote for alcohol which I did as much as possible. Attitude during the party, I have never seen someone who was so determined to shoot herself in the foot as her during the campaign making comments how horrible Trump voters are without thinking that many of those voters came from her party that was just sick with her shit. You can call people names and expect them to do what you say. I have been calling people idiots for a decade and they still won’t swallow the fact that I am right until it smacks them in the nose like Brock Lesnar after you insulted his wife. She clearly did not know something that I with my magnificent brain called almost a year ago and that fact pisses me off more then makes me happy because I am a complete lunatic some days. Trying to hide her own backers from Wall Street, from the pieces of the party that were shamed made others trust her as far as she could throw me which let us be honest is not very far. When you have someone that lies about security, about her backers, about her policies, about her tactics, and about the country at large with the media working with you makes it look like you are a complete fucking farce. People who are shocked that all this cost her need to take a shot of reality with a cherry on top because that is how it works. When someone is painted as a liar and is proven as one for the majority of nine months when on the opposite you have a foul-mouthed billionaire with a checkered past, but is seemingly more honest then people are going to take that. We entered an election where a politician with two decades plus of experience could not tell the truth, or be of the people going so far as stealing the Democratic primary with heavy media help. Citizens looked at that and thought that the more honest one would be the better choice and any time that in that situation Trump is the better choice makes me want to fall into a Jameson bottle with scuba gear.

It was not the FBI, not Wikileaks, and not the Russians. All of these things did not help, but it was all the lying, insulting, cockier, holier-than-thou attitude that cost her the election. She had a chance at winning at the end if she didn’t choke on her own foot. How can one get the questions ahead of a debate and not completely wreck it because by sensical scoring Trump got two to one. The fact she could not make a victory on each of those debates was completely idiotic. She lost, Trump won, and we all have to deal. Which reminds me….

To All The Butthurt Politicos

I have been hearing this enough that despite it not being a story it can stand here because it is my blog. Everyone has the right to bitch about the situation because we are all living in it. If you voted you can bitch if you did not vote you can bitch if you think that because you took a single action that it makes you better than those who for some reason or not didn’t then you can go down the road and fuck pothole covered miles of off.

We are not a democracy, we are a republic, we vote for people who in turn vote for the president. They make the call and a couple said they would not vote even if their county went a certain way. I have been hearing this on all sides about one side blaming the other for something. All democrats being lying pinheads while all the republicans or xenophobic twits or something to that effect.

Both parties contributed to our countries history and both did great things and anyone who thinks that one party saves while another destroys needs to put their head in a panini press because maybe with enough skull trauma they can come full circle to making sense again. The fact that we are still flinging poo from one party to the other is a sign we have clearly devolved back to the monkeys. You want things to change go out and do something about it. There are people who are trying to make things better myself included, but after dealing with people who are completely mentally incapacitated. Changing things in politics is like trying to get intimate with an iceberg, after all the preparation and first aid set up afterward, drilling a hole in the ice, undressing and getting to the floating piece of frozen water. It leaves you with a set of blue balls, a cold chill in your heart, possible death, and a case of insanity when you realize that so many people are trying it as a career and they are even getting paid for it.

I have tried to change things only to be laughed at. These same parties are now trying to figure out how to deal with all the outrage while sit her laughing at them because and as much as I hate to say it I FUCKING CALLED IT! We have a lot of problems and we will not change them by flinging poo at a group of people because they are different, does not work, and not many times in history as it shown to work at all. We need to work together so ask yourselves this before going on some tangent against someone with different views. Are they so far they cannot be persuaded to meet in the middle or is it that it may take some effort and you do not want to give it a shot? Some people are lost to the banana universe while others will meet you midway for the benefit of everyone and if you want to talk anything about politics it better be how everyone can work together or I will find myself going full supervillain, designing a costume and robbing banks for fun with a myriad of gimmick based gadgets. Somewhere between Captain Cold and the Riddler, not going to kill anyone but not afraid of giving someone a good shot when needed.

We need to work together as citizens are this is going to get a lot worse if we don’t.
