As I’m putting my finishing touches on Matt Gaetz, no pun intended. It all just moves too fast. He’s in he’s out. He’s in, he’s out faster and faster, until finally, a climax and he’s out for good. Now ready for a long winter’s nap, the party is over. Marge Traitor Greene runs defense for Matt and inadvertently trips the broken clock rule. Marge has a point. Accidently, but still a point. Marge says, like a friend you don’t need pleading your case for you. If we are going to release the ethics report on little Matt’s party antics. Well, then maybe we should expose All of the Republican pedophiles, predators and philanders! Let’s change the subject from what goes on in Matt’s backyard to their own. A left-handed threat from a woman voted most likely to be drowned in a toilet bowl by the good old boy network. There are some places even the brave dare not to go. But I’m all ears, do tell! Marge didn’t mean that she “would” talk only that she could talk if she wanted to. It’s four o’clock in the afternoon and you need some cocaine on Capitol hill. You know; a quantity and not just a toot. Marge knows where to go. She won’t volunteer that information, but she could! You know who you are! The day that Marge socked it to the Harper Valley PTA! Well, she could have socked it to them, if she’d wanted too. She was just trying to make a point. Matt isn’t the only Republican Congressman out there doing drugs and screwing teenagers. So, get off his back! People in glass houses shouldn’t throw orgies. The rank hypocrisy! Throwing Matt under the bus when you were all there doing the same thing! And yet, some wonder why Marge hasn’t ascended any higher in the new Administration. With friends like that… Even when she tries to help, she doesn’t help. I think Marge’s point is well made, though, and we should open an investigation into Congressional peccadillos and drug use immediately. Good idea Marge! The broken clock rule works! A Wiz quiz for everybody! Surprised and unannounced, just like they do for the peon class. Stay out of the lady’s room Marge, it could be dangerous. All of this hamberder trying to save a dead duck. When the King appointed Matt Gaetz, it was an affront to the American Justice system. But even more so, it was an affront to Congress. I’m gonna shove this little shit head right down your throats and you’re going to like it, see? You’re going to timidly raise your hand and say, “I approve,” you got it? Of course, I understand Matt Gaetz is the most hated and despised man on Capitol hill, that’s why I picked him! It would take too long to insult you all individually. Matt Gaetz could snort more coke than David Crosby, screw more hookers than Shaun Combs and get away with it, if only he weren’t Matt Gaetz. The King was sending a message to the rump Congress. Get your rubber stamps out boys and prepare to shut the hell up. I’ll shove the worst candidate in this nation’s history right up your ass and make you vote for it! And it would have worked too, only, it was Matt Gaetz and that was a bridge too far. No way the Republicans would or could confirm that smiling, braying jackass to have power over them. The confirmation hearing promised to be a Democratic Disneyland. With witness after witness describing Partying with Matt. And then someone might get the bright idea to call Marge Traitor Greene to the witness stand to tell us all what she knows. “Did Mr. Gaetz come to the party alone besides his date? Was everyone doing cocaine and ecstasy or just Mr. Gaetz? Was this house party some sort of orgy or did Mr. Gaetz just take it upon himself to get naked and have sex with two women spontaneously? Besides yourself, were any other members of Congress present?” Marge threatens to go nuclear and throws out the “E” word, Epstein! Like that is supposed to scare somebody. A man looking at decades in prison wants to talk huh? “And Mickey Mouse was there, and the Pope and the Dahlia Lama was there too! Bob Hope, Barack Obama, Frank Sinatra, Green Day! A Salvation Army Colonel and the bass player from the “E” street band.” A man looking to get his sentence reduced would say just about anything and is therefore useless as a source. Unless of course, he had evidence, but only a foolish man would ever keep evidence of his sex crimes. Get ready and tighten up your wig. There once was a time when there was a honeymoon. The King is attempting the Conan the Barbarian approach and bash them upside the head one time. The Republicans in Congress will gladly and happily kiss the King’s ass. But what they won’t do is give up their power. The King must play the game. Back before the world turned upside down. The King’s support in the Republican Congress was divided and limited, and it still is. They don’t like him any better this month than they did last month. If the King thinks he can strong arm the Congress, he’s in for a fight. That’s why Gaetz had to go away quietly. The King could wind up with the confirmation hearings from hell and his Administration mired in its own corruption and corpulence on day one. The King must acknowledge the powers of the Congressional plebeians, even if he doesn’t respect them and has no plans to listen to them. This will be a one-way street from now on. Thank you for your input, but if I want any shit from you…I’ll squeeze your head. From the files of the used and disaffected. African American Republican politicians who campaigned for the King are joining the ranks of the disappointed asking, “Where are the Black Jobs?” They aren’t in the Trump Administration, that’s for sure! I hate to keep saying it, but how dumb do you have to be to believe Donald Trump and then complain? I’d be embarrassed to tell folks that about myself. We know that no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.” ― George Orwell [END] --- [1] Url: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/11/22/2287995/-Now-You-Begin-to-Understand-Me?pm_campaign=front_page&pm_source=more_community&pm_medium=web Published and (C) by Daily Kos Content appears here under this condition or license: Site content may be used for any purpose without permission unless otherwise specified. via Magical.Fish Gopher News Feeds: gopher://magical.fish/1/feeds/news/dailykos/
