Someone throw a dead intern at this douche. He basically just called it a “rookie mistake” that McCarthy was incapable of preventing the truth from falling out of his yap. He’s basically admitting that the GOP/Teatrolls should be seeking a leader who is better at obfuscation.

REPUBLICANS CAN’T WIN NATIONAL ELECTIONS WHEN THEY ARE HONEST ABOUT WHAT THEY BELIEVE AND WHO THEY ARE

Today’s Republicans don’t believe that being HONEST is a desirable quality in a Republican “leader”.

Today’s Republicans REQUIRE their “leaders” to be DISHONEST…because Republicans LOSE NATIONAL ELECTIONS when they are HONEST about what they believe and who they are!

For our Republican brethren to use words like stupid, rookie, and insubordinate (if they were allowed to use a word with more than eight letters) to describe one of their own, does not mean they are sorry or embarrassed in the least. Nope. They are simply following their tradition of throwing him to the wolves.

Exactly
Rookie mistake = Telling the truth
You must never never EVER tell the truth

Kevin McCarthy gave an incredibly incoherent “Band on America” speech yesterday. Does anyone have a link to a video of the rambling? It has a lot of hilarity. Kevin McCarthy really seems dimwitted and appears to be able to read at a 6th grade level.

He also seems to have trouble keep confidential and secret information private. He gave away highly classified and secret information regarding the Republican strategy on Benghazi on national TV yesterday. Does he have the qualifications, judgement and is he mentally competent to be Speaker?

So, naturally, you’re wondering why Dubya didn’t appoint him to the Supreme Court…

(PS-Joe’s hair: Speed Racer or Astro Boy?)

You would think . . . but given the number of maroons in the House I doubt it.

Right here

McCarthy is also investigating whether that snobby barista at Starbucks that never says “Hi” back to him really likes working there or merely wants someplace public to play “Hard to get”. He’s heard four brave men have been shot down and apparently no one but him cares to investigate.

I’d expect nothing less of Joe Scabrous.

Yes, given the high standards set by Hastert and Boehner, I can see why they’d wonder whether he was up to the job.

He may be dimwitted. I have no idea; he doesn’t seem very bright. But as for his reading, more likely he’s dyslexic and never received any training or therapy to overcome it. When he was speaking to Hannity “off-the-cuff,” he appeared articulate enough, though by no means eloquent. My brother-in-law has dyslexia and even without therapy, people develop coping strategies. You’d never know it to listen to him speak extemporaneously.

Referring to Hillary Clinton, McCarthy says she is “untrustable,” and Chaffetz, referring to McCarthy’s remarks says “I think it’s an ‘absolute’ inaccurate statement.” These are the folks advocating English as the official language and that everyone should learn it. Jeepers, shouldn’t they master it first??? Just sayin’…

And here’s more from Rachel last night. The video is kinda long but in the first five minutes she is hysterical when showing the speakmanship of our potential next Speaker.

We’d expect Joe Scarborough to dismiss McCarthy’s Freudian slip as a rookie mistake. But we don’t have to accept it. And true to form all Joe cares about is the “republican” shit. If it hurt the asshole’s chances in the “republican” world. You watch Joe if that’s what you want.

Well if anyone watched Rachel Maddow last night who displayed his reading and grammar skills (or should I say lack thereof) it is scary to think that at 50 he is so illiterate and the people who write for him are equally so,

The fact that he admitted that the Committee is a witch hunt is very telling

Yeah. Saw that. Didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
