You know that bully at the public swimming pool who thinks it’s amusing to hold kids’ heads underwater?
New Hampshire GOP Chairman Jennifer Horn had tough words.
Insisting “this is our moment,” Horn said, “A wave just doesn’t happen. Waves happen when every single member of a cause or a movement come together.
“This is our time, we need to crush it and push their heads under over and over and over again until they cannot breathe anymore,” said Horn.
Well, I’m not a weakling, and I won’t submit to this behavior. And I won’t take this standing down, either:
Former Gov. John H. Sununu said Democrats should be “embarrassed of their President who has failed America, who has screwed America, and we have to make a change.
“Think of how disgraceful it is to have a disgrace in the White House,” Sununu said.
I’m not embarrassed about our president. I’m proud of him. But let’s talk about disgrace for a moment:
December 4, 1991
The President’s son, George W. Bush, told Mr. Sununu last week that he no longer had any political support, a message that a senior Republican today called “a hint so broad that it would be hard to miss.”
Mr. Bush, who was traveling in Florida and Mississippi, accepted Mr. Sununu’s resignation without a grand face-saving gesture. This seemed to reflect the consensus that Mr. Sununu was responsible for several embarrassing political missteps and flip-flops and had in the final days of his tenure tried to salvage his political fortunes by turning the heat on his boss.
Mr. Bush passed Mr. Sununu over for a departmental Cabinet position or an ambassadorship, posts for which he was considered virtually unconfirmable because of his sour relations with Congress.
Mr. Bush also declined to guarantee Mr. Sununu even a ceremonial role in the 1992 campaign team. This omission seemed to signal the President’s wish to remove the chief of staff from his inner circle entirely at a time when Mr. Bush is increasingly eager to recover from a drop in his public approval ratings.
Also, too:
June 23, 1991
The White House has imposed strict new travel rules on John H. Sununu after an internal review found that the chief of staff misinformed Administration officials about who paid for his trip on a private jet to a recent Republican fund raiser in Chicago.
The new rules, which were issued on Friday evening, require Mr. Sununu to arrange his travel for political events through the White House Office of Administration, which will obtain transportation for him, White House officials said today. The administration office is under Mr. Sununu’s authority as chief of staff, and White House officials said the White House counsel would also review the plans before they were approved.
So, who’s a disgrace?
All of the GOP is a disgrace and has been for years. The real tragedy is they are so far removed from reality that none of them know it. That is why there are so many GOP sites and information centers.
I guess that doesn’t recognize disgrace despite it having bitten him in the ass.
“So, who’s a disgrace?”
Being a Republican snake oil salesman means looking
in the mirror, and seeing NADA but a river in Africa!
This is not politics. This is a declaration of the type of war that the GOP likes, one that includes torture to the death.
This really should be unacceptable political discourse. Especially in a party whose members tend to act out.
Isn’t it revealing that the Fascist Party of America loves talking about killing their political opponents and the government itself?
I’m sure it’s just another joke us libruuuuuls just can’t take, is all.
i want my child safe from bullying!

Obviously this stuff reveals the mind of the violent, enraged authoritarian, and their heartfelt belief that their political opponents are traitors to the nation who must be exterminated. This is the common attitude and rhetoric of totalitarian movements, which is what we are dealing with with today’s American Fasc…er, Repub Party.
Obama is a “disgrace”. I guess there doesn’t need to be any explanation provided; if you don’t already know it to be true you are beyond hope in the eyes of Sununu & Co. and liable to be drowned for your recalcitrance and obtuseness, I guess. Their last prez was not properly elected, incompetently permitted a massive domestic attack, lied us into an illegal war, intentionally ruined the nation’s fiscal position, authorized and committed illegal torture and admitted to a variety of executive felonies, such as illegal warrantless surveillance. But Obama is the “disgrace” who has “failed and screwed America”. As a political movement, “conservatives” are demented, plain and simple.
As a tribe, the White Right are heavily armed, and proud of it. They flaunt their personal armories and arms, and cannot wait for political violence to commence. They already threaten, bully and seek to cow fellow citizens with their firearms, and go out of their way to spark violence and gun play. And who will command the affections of our domestic soldiery, the militarized “police” forces?
The Hitler movement (of Germany) rather quickly started to kill their political enemies, without the slightest apology or institutional accountability. The political killings were quickly accepted as a facet of the movement, undertaken to “protect” the nation from internal traitors. The American Right obviously already sees their political enemies as traitors.
Will our prosecutors, police and judiciary end up protecting us from political violence by the American fascist party? How long before our (ongoing) civil war becomes a “hot” one, ala Ukraine? At that point, all the civil institutions of the country become irrelevant…in a civil war there are no civil rights.
This, all decade long.
It’s exactly where things are heading. The propaganda machine(s) have been established and are not protected by law.
Anyone who thinks that PeakWingnutTM exists has never studied history, or did a piss-poor job doing so.
Americans are gun-toting and violent, and we think we’re just going to win a few elections in 2016 and boom, socialist uptopia?
I don’t think so. We are not at the nadir yet, folks. Stupid people are still be produced daily.
Wasn’t it that Carville guy who once famously said ‘tie a chain with a stone around their neck and let them drown’? Or something to the effect.
iirc it was more like “when you’re opponent is drowning, throw him an anvil.”
Right. The idea is the same. Thanks. How did he ever come up with ‘anvil’.
Big dead weight that can just barely be tossed by a couple of people.
