It shouldn’t be surprising that the clown who brought Alan Keyes to Illinois is behind the most toxic candidate (ignoring Nazi gadflies) in recent history. f
Mike Bost’s entire political brand is being an asshole.
“Enough! I feel like somebody trying to be released from Egypt! Let my people go!” he hollers. “These damn bills that come out of here all the damn time come out here at the last second and I’ve got to try figure out how to vote for my people!”
The video of those remarks went viral that year. In it, Bost is seen throwing the bill into the air. He whiffs at the pages as they fall, then picks up the papers and throws them again.
So now Mike Bost is very concerned about people not acting cordially at Town Halls. Via Capitol Fax
“The amount of time that I have at home is minimal, I need to make sure that it’s productive,” Bost said Friday. “You know the cleansing that the Orientals used to do where you’d put one person out in front and 900 people yell at them? That’s not what we need. We need to have meetings with people that are productive.”
Clearly we have a snowflake here who is need of safe spaces that don’t allow assholes like Mike Bost in them.
Oh, and what the fuck with Oriental? Seriously? He’s like 10 years older than me. He doesn’t get the grandpa racism dispensation for old people saying dumb things.
So for all tweets about Mike Bost remember #racistsnowflake
For those not getting his reference he’s talking about Struggle Sessions held in Maoist China where people were humiliated for not matching the party line. Just a bit different from a politician facing his constituents.
While I don’t want to take away from Mark Kirk’s racist meltdown last night, he also went off on a weird tangent. Some time ago he referred to President Obama as the Drug Dealer in Chief.
Duckworth brought this up last night:
Kirk:I would say that when we talked about drug dealers are that I strongly opposed the 400 million dollar ransom payment that the president made in cash to the Iranians even after he certified that they are the State Sponsor of Terror. Those a drug dealer words are not mine there they were words of the European Union. Remember the European Union canceled the printing of the 500 Euro note because they said it… Remember most of the payment for the four hundred million dollars was in 500 Euros so if you do the math there eight hundred thousand five hundred Euro notes were in that payment. They canceled the printing of the 500 euro note because the European Union, and this is a quote directly, they said the note was too involved in drug dealing of terror.
The California GOP consigned itself to permanent minority status when it became anti-immigrant and the non-white population has only grown since then.
When insane people take over our politics.
Kilmeade almost made an attempt to stop Trump, but then he decided, what they hell. In truth, it is better TV.
Without Dan Proft bringing in Alan Keyes in 2004 at the beginning of conservatives losing their mind about Barack Obama, I don’t know that we get to to the peak of the anything, but the black guy movement with reality show host Donald Trump and sociopath Ted Cruz running to replace Obama—and doing well.
Dold has been the editorial page editor at the Tribune for some time now. So if you loved the well reasoned editorials, now you get a whole paper of it.
I’m sure Dold is a nice guy and the Trib has hardly ever been a liberal bastion, but the comical turn of the Tribune editorials with Rauner have only taken the slide that started with Zell on Earth and exacerbated it.
