Picks Have Consequences

Repubs get rebuffed here too

We get the government we deserve because we pick ‘em. It’s really that simple.

“Watch out, you might get what you’re after.”

- Talking Heads, Burning Down the House.

When you were a kid, did your mommy sometimes let you pick which one, of whatever, you wanted? Did you ever regret your choice? Did she tell you not to pick your nose? Did you listen? Have you grown-up and learned to pick better? No, not your nose.

Those weren’t rhetorical questions. Please share with us in the comments about your bad picks. It’ll be fun -at least for me. But again, not your nose picks.

OK, nose picks too.

Picking The Locks

We’ve allowed our elected representatives (notice I didn’t use leaders) to pick the locks on our money chest. Remember, we picked ‘em before they picked the locks … and our pockets.

Matter of fact, they also picked the lock on the chaste belt of the children’s and grandchildren’s future. You know full well what they did after that. And we stood back and let it happen. We gave ‘em an opening, and they slipped in. Sorry, bad choice of words, but it sure drives home the point.

The question to me is, why did they have to pick the locks? Didn’t we give ‘em the keys? What happened to ‘em? What happened to the locks? The national treasure’s been plundered, and few seem to want to secure the lock boxes.

Of Course, I Have A Solution

Looks like we may have picked a few good ones in this last election. Time will tell if they will get the lock boxes closed again.

Once we send them new locks, we’ll see if our latest picks will use ‘em, and if they can resist picking the new locks. If not, we’ll just have to pick better, in 2012. Either way, it’s time we started keeping better track our picks.

Boxes Of Lockses

Think about it. What kind of message would be sent, if Congress started getting thousands of locks from across the country? Don’t look to me to start this. Like one of my bosses use to tell me, “I’m an idea guy. They just keep coming. Your jobs is to implement.”

Well, get out of here and go to the hardware store!

It’s been pointed out here and elsewhere, liberalism IS a disease. Fortunately it’s not sexually transmitted(despite how much they try), but it is contagious. Hang around enough committed Leftus, and you could very well find yourself infected.

One way to prevent this affliction is to regularly read conservative humor and satire. But that’s not for everyone. Those of you who grew-up looking on dad’s flesh mags, know that pictures are a lot more fun.

Hearkening back to your youth (or the site you just came from) I humbly submit the following slightly altered, politically incorrect, humor pictures.
