I truly believe that most of the GOPers are trying to get even for all of the perceived societal 'wrongs' of which they were on the receiving end.

Karl Rove is a perfect example - pudgy, bespectacled little shit who had to deal with his father, who was one of the weirdest characters in the San Francisco gay scene back in the day. Whole lotta bullying going on...

And, godammit, he was determined to get even with the rest of the world.

Google 'Karl Rove father piercing', you'll see.

It's far too near bedtime and I don't want nightmares.

I don't check under the bed every night for communists - I look to make sure there are no Repukes hiding under there!

I don't know whether to laugh or laugh harder.

Mulvaney: Insourcing is Hurting Small Business, Growing Government, and Costing Taxpayers Money

http://www.mulvaney.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=105&Itemid=

Contracting and Workforce Subcommittee Chairman Mick Mulvaney (SC-05) today held a hearing to examine the Obama administration's insourcing policies and their detrimental effect on small businesses.

"This is a story that folks need to hear," Mulvaney said. "I have been approached by several small businesses that have had their work 'insourced.' Government agencies are cancelling contracts with private sector businesses, taking the work in-house, and often even hiring away the private business' employees. By doing that, the Obama Administration is growing government, hurting small business, and costing taxpayers money. It's absolutely wrong, and people need to know about it.

"What's worse is that this insourcing is being done with little or no transparency. For example, in 2009, the Democrat-controlled Congress included in the Omnibus Appropriations Act a requirement directing federal agencies to increase guidelines on insourcing. However, over two years later, those guidelines don't exist --- but agencies are insourcing anyway."

Snip>>>>

I've decided to laugh. I think it's more cost effective to have the work done in-house. As to the Great Federal Government Hiring Extravaganza - well, anyone whose family members and friends have been looking for work diligently in the Federal Govt can attest, THERE ARE NO JOBS!!!!

Obama must have treated all women with respect - not one has ever come forward and the Rs have obviously never been able to find one they could use to discredit him.
