It that time again kiddies!!! It's time for the Retarded Statist Comment Roundup!!!

Where I read stupid so you don't have to!

Let's start with this comment from Gemli in Boston, commenting on David Brook's Editorial yesterday:

I admit that I don't know much about the economy, but I know all about Republicans. I know that when they propose cutting the budget while waging endless wars and refuse to raise revenue by taxing the people who have all the money, it means that the middle class will be hung out to dry.

I know that when conservative pundits tell me that Republicans are the ones with the bright ideas and have the solutions to our economic problems, I have to wonder how that squares with the fact that they ruined the economy in the first place, and then spent the last two-plus years acting like obstreperous juvenile bullies, fomenting lies, raising the specter of intolerance and social conservatism, and spawning the Tea Party. I wonder who will benefit from their budget-cutting plans. Will it be teachers, or union workers, or unemployed people, or people who need medical care, or people who are retired? Do people figure into their plans at all? Or are you counting Corporations as people?

I don't know what Paul Ryan is grabbing with both hands, but I don't think it's "reality." It seems a lot more personal, and I'm already starting to feel the squeeze.

What's it that they say about the difference between a wise man and a fool?

And just to prove that I'm an equal opportunity offender:

Obama's assault on Gitmo was merely an "I'm not Bush" moment. It was completely irresponsible and reckless. It has now cost us two years worth of justice and millions of dollars, not to mention the dishonor it does to the victims of 9/11 and their families. Another truly pathetic move by the empty suit, affirmative action President. I hope you are all proud of that "Hopey Changey" outcome. Elections have consequences. Unfortunately, 2008 's is really bad.

Eh, I'll try to find better, as there are some, especially on the whole sex, drugs, and rock and roll issues. I just found it offensive that this asshat thinks that a debate over how to try KSM is a disservice to the victims of 9/11, an overused meme.

So, I just learned that the National Reviews commentators can be rather progressive on homosexuality, which I didn't expect based on their comments on other conservative issues, but hey.

The NY Times Comments may have to get their own special section if I make this my late night, before I pass out bit, but here one from Beth, on the Times article about the looming shutdown:

This is a joke. This is such a joke. Balance the budget? Cut military spending and raise taxes on the rich. Congress is just arguing about peanuts and willfully ignoring the real issues.

Is it a requirement to have a complete inability to do math to be elected to national office?

No, but it is apparently required of New York Times commentators.
