This blog will focus on political images I have found all around the Internet, though I will intersperse some commentary and quotes that I find interesting.

Real Time
I tape Bill Maher's Real Time on HBO - haven't watched the show from last Friday, but I will shortly. This looks lie some of the stuff I've been thinking.

Topics: bill maher ? michael moore ? republican party
On Friday night's edition of "Real Time with Bill Maher," host Bill Maher and guests filmmaker Michael Moore, commentator S. E. Cupp and New York Times columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin discussed the obstructionist Republican Congress and its mission to take down the president by taking down the country. Moore opined that the Republican Party is a "squealing dinosaur" whose time has come.
Maher began the segment by talking about how prices among top health insurers are falling since the implementation of Obamacare.
"They did a test and they put, you know, what insurance would cost if you were a 40-year-old, non-smoker and instantly, the two highest priced insurers went down," Maher said.
"This is the heart of Obama," he said. "This is the heart of capitalism. I'm wondering why the people who love the free market so much are not for this."
"And what about trying to repeal it for the 37th time?" he went on. "Is that a wise use of our time and resources? At some point, obstruction becomes, um, I dunno, treason."
He went on to list how Republicans are blocking the nominations of a new head for the EPA, a chief circuit court judge for the city of Washington, D.C. and dozens of other government posts that are going unfilled because Republicans won't let any of Obama's nominees get voted on in Congress.
"At some point," Maher said, "it becomes more about hating him than loving our country."
"No, they hate America," said Moore. "I think that's really what it is."
He went on to say that "conservatives and right-wingers," as much as they profess to love this country, "they hate it. They hate the government, they hate the people."

Knowing the hypocrisy
The Bible is full of so much hypocrisy that it's hard to understand how people have followed it so religiously (pun intended) for two-thousand years.

Bill Maher - spot on
"Conspiracy theorists who are claiming that we didn't really kill bin Laden must be reminded that they didn't think he did the crime in the first place. Come on, nut jobs, keep your bullshit straight: The towers were brought down in a controlled demolition by George W. Bush to distract attention from Hawaii, where CIA operatives were planting phony birth records so that a Kenyan named Barack Obama could someday rise to power and pretend to take out the guy we pretended took out the towers. And I know that's true because I just got it in an email from Trump."

Bill Maher on Republicans
"It turns out that the Republican budget that they submitted for next year slashes funding for the agency that issues tsunami warnings and organizes responses to the tsunami. In their defense, Republicans say that tsunamis are just a theory. They are not a real threat like ACORN, the Black Panthers, NPR, and math teachers in Wisconsin."
