The World Of Unanticipated Consequences
Posted: June 29, 2018 Filed under: "It Seems To Me" | Tags: conservatives, unanticipated consequences Leave a commentWith Justice Kennedy retiring, and Doofus getting ready to appoint Ted Nugent (or some other legal genius) to the Supreme Court, many people (myself included) are fearing the reversal of Roe v Wade.
Welcome to the part of the show we call “The World Of Unanticipated Consequences.”
If the evangelicals get their fevered wet dream, if Roe is reversed and abortion is outlawed, what will be the consequence? Simple, really, if you think about it:
MASSIVE TAX INCREASES IN ALL 50 STATES.
States will need to prepare for large tax increases that will be needed to build new schools and hire more teachers.
States have gotten used to low birth rates. The tax increases will need to start on the very day abortions are outlawed, because finding the land and building the new schools will take time.
Increased budgets for hiring more teachers will be needed in five to six years. That should also be included in the planning.
So outlawing abortions will lead to massive tax increases. Hope you’re ready for that, right wingers.
This has been “The World Of Unanticipated Consequences.”

Joke of the day.

A violinist is playing romantic music. The lights in the restaurant are dimmed down low.
The man fidgets nervously and says, “Honey, I’m.. ah, I’m not sure how to say this.”
The woman smiles, holds back some tears, and responds, “Just say it.”
The man picks up a bottle from the table and says, “Wor-Chester-Shire.”

Slightly tasteless joke of the day.

To retain his honor he grabs two pistols from above the mantel and tells the man, “If you want my wife that much, you need to be willing to die for her. I challenge you to a duel.”
The other man accepts the challenge. They go into another room and close the door. Then the husband whispers to the other man:
“Actually, nobody needs to get hurt. Let’s shoot into the air, and pretend we’re both dead. We’ll see who my wife runs to first, and find out which one of us she loves more.”
So they both shoot into the air and lay down on the floor. The wife bursts into the room, sees the men lying on the floor, and shouts over her shoulder:
“Honey, you can come out now – they’re both dead!”

Burritos are yummy
If you voted for Trump
Then you’re just a big dummy
Roses are red
Like burgundy wine
He may be YOUR President
But he sure isn’t MINE
Roses are red
So is Superman’s cape
I wonder how long
Till we see the pee tape?
Roses are red
Like a red rubber ball
And Mexico says
They won’t pay for the wall
Roses are red
Like fast sporty cars
I can’t wait to see
His ass behind bars
Roses are red
So they’re easy to find
He can’t keep his lips
Off of Putin’s behind
Roses are red
Like a nasty infection
Now Stormy has photos
Of his tiny erection
Roses are red
Puppies are cute
He paid off a hooker
And Christians are mute
Roses are red
Tambourines jingle
And his trophy wife
Wishes she was still single
Roses are red
Like Putin, his crony
And that whole election
Was phony baloney
Roses are red
Like a big fire truck
And all of his followers
Are scary AF
Roses are red
They require lots of water
It’s creepy as hell
That he’s hot for his daughter
Roses are red
Like cherries with pits
We can’t see his taxes
But we’ve seen his wife’s tits
Roses are red
Like a circus balloon
I hope Robert Mueller
Can wrap this up soon
Roses are red
Like the stuff in our veins
I really do miss
A President with brains

Evangelical rant.
Posted: March 9, 2018 Filed under: "It Seems To Me" | Tags: religion, Republicans Leave a commentThere are Evangelical Christians who would have happily trotted off with the devil in the desert.
“But his strong leadership is what’s important. I mean, he’s Satan. We know he’s not a choirboy.
Plus, Mr. Satan promised us he wouldn’t kill the babies until AFTER they’re born.”
Name-Brand Ketchup.
