J. C. WATTS: STOP DRINKING THE KOOL-AID!

Memo to former Rep. J. C. Watts (R-OK):

STOP DRINKING THE GOP KOOL-AID, BRUH!

I mean, it's not like you work on the Hill anymore, unless you're a lobbyist trying to stay in good with the boys in the House. With the scandal swirling around Rep. Mark Foley (R-Pervert), you think those boys are going to be good clientele for you to be boasting about?

You made your point as a 2% Negro for Rent in the GOP; hell, you had the fourth highest position in all of the House, until the Bugman, Tom DeLay (R-Thug)came on board as House Leader and pretty much telegraphed your horses' ass that you would be no more than glofied water boy totin' water for the GOP Massas on his watch.

What did you do? You got the hell out of Dodge, dude, and by the looks of things, it was a smart move, too.

So why do you feel the need to say this crap?

Former Republican congressman JC Watts just said on CNN that it was okay for Denny Hastert and congressional republicans to do nothing in the face of evidence that ex-congressman Mark Foley was preying on kids. Why? Because they were "respecting the rights of the parents." Supposedly the one kids' parents didn't want to make a public stink.

Would you feel that way if Foley had preyed upon and molested one of your kids? Hell, no, and be honest, you'd settle the matter in street fashion, too. You'd get some of your boys named Ray-Ray, or Earl and Scooter, a couple of tire irons and take Foley out in a cornfield, ala Joe Pesci-style in "Casino" and beat the snot out of him, as well as bust both his kneecaps, so don't front off that you would have meekly gone along with the deal as that kid's parents did, and also say that it's OK for Hastert, Shimkus and Boehner to be derelict in their duty as lawmakers in the House.

Why do you feel the need to defend the GOP leadership that virtually enabled Mark Foley to prey upon kids on the Hill? Kids entrusted by their parents to your collegues to gain an educational experience of working in the highest halls of Government, not be procurers of pulcritude for salacious elected officials who can't keep it in their pants, or because they're drunk on power and use sex as a means to exercise that power.

You make me sick. In fact, all GOP House Negroes like you are a disgrace to the human race, and don't get me started on being ethnic because you were never there, boyfriend. What does the Grand Old Perverts have on you or your family, that CNN knew they could call you for defensive commentary on the air?

I guess I'll know how low we've sunk if Clarence Thomas weighs in on this, because his pubic hair on a Coke can is almost tame compared to Foley's emails in which he was obviously engaging in his own form of virtual sex with teen-aged boys.

I don't want you trotting out Bill Clinton or Monica Lewinsky as justification for Hastert's dereliction, either. While being stupid, they were consenting adults who could give consent to be stupid. But providing cover for a known pedophile? Get real.

If your own father is quoted as saying, "A vote for a Republican is like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders" then why, oh why, are you stepping in to provide cover for the ReThugs and their enabling of a pervert? You must be drunk on the GOP kool-aid, and can't stop drinking it.

You need to get to a rehab as fast as Foley did, if you ever wish to retain what little credibility you have left.


HE CALLED JESSE JACKSON A "RACE-HUSTLING POVERTY PIMP". BUT, WHAT DOES THAT MAKE WATTS, WHEN HE PROVIDES COVER FOR A KNOWN PEDOPHILE?

GOP = GRAND OLD...PERVERTS?

Well, since I mentioned Mark Foley, let's just say that those ReThugs of the Bible Belt variety, (holla, Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and "Mulla" James Dobson) are so quiet on this issue of Rep. Mark Foley (R-Florida) getting caught sending emails to Congressional pages, you can hear mice pissing on cotton.

IOKIYAR. God, I hope not. I hope some in the ReThug party sobers up off the GOP kool-aid to be willing to take out some of their own on this issue. While we have graft, corruption, those willing to be bribed, whoremongers (even those who put a chokehold on their mistresses), somewhere in this perverted world, there seems to still be a line that says children are off limits.

The Democrats took down "Dollar" Bill Jefferson (D-Louisiana)for having $90K in his freezer. So if they had a pedophile among them, they would be toast. Why can't the GOP do the same thing? I mean, what hubris and arrogance to have this guy actually chairing a committee that wrote legislation that facilitated better alert systems when a child is snatched off the street, and yet, because he wrote those laws, he probably knew how to break them and not get caught.

More than predatory acts, we're also talking about sexual harassment as well, because when a person uses their authority to solicit sex acts in exchange for favorable treatment, sex has become a condition of their employment, and that is illegal. Foley was a lawyer by profession - you would think he'd remember this from second or third-year law school.

Law schools...they churn out perverts like Foley, Clarence Thomas, Roberts and Alito, haven't they? So, I'm no longer impressed if you tell me you're a Harvard or Yale Law Grad - they put something in the water to make CBC members like Artur Davis, Mel Watt and others think they can play nice with the GOP and not get burned, anyway.

Mark Foley is a predatory pedophile. Repeat, rinse and spit, please. And this is not the time for Grandmothers in Congress, like Nancy Pelosi or Jane Harman to keep their yaps shut in playing nice; they should be encouraging their peers to hang this around the GOP's neck like an anvil for the next five weeks.

Ads should be reading like this:

"Do you support a Congressional member who knowingly exposed his pedophile colleague to congressional pages? If you do, go ahead and vote Pedophile...!"

No, children, this is not an October surprise. But it comes close.

And the ReThugs can't say "Well, Democrats do it, too!" Drink your cans of STHU, and break out your cans of Whip Ass on all of the GOP leadership, starting with Hastert, for covering this crap up. He's a teacher, by profession. Even when I taught community college, the same law applies; if you find out that a student may be being subjected to molestation or harassment by a faculty member, you were duty-bound by law to make a report, or you were toast if it surfaced and it's discovered you knew about it, but did nothing. So, if that standard applied to me as a community college instructor, it also applied to Hastert, even as a former school teacher, despite the fact he's in Congress at this point.

Which is why I say that those who had any dealings with Mark Foley better come clean. To me, this is like the scandal with the Catholic Priests. You think the priests who are truly trying to do what they were called to do; that they're not cussing Bernard Law under their breath for placing them in a position of being an automatic suspect, especially if they dropped dime on their pedophile bretheren of the Cloth, and all he did was transfer them somewhere else?

The Catholic church is going bankrupt behind this scandal, paying out millions of dollars in damages to the victims and their families. Who's going to donate money to the Church if it's going to be used to cover up predatory pedophile priests?

Same standard applies here. Why should you donate to the GOP if they're going to provide cover for pedophiles? Ever watch the movie, "Bastard out of Carolina"? I watched it recently and what I remember most was when Bone's uncle Earl found out that her stepfather was beating, molesting and raping her, Earl and a few of his boys got the guy in a circle (during a funeral of Bone's grandmother or aunt) and kicked the living crap out of that guy. And this was in rural South Carolina during the 1950's. These guys would probably be part of the NASCAR crowd today that the GOP relies on during election time. If raping or molesting a child didn't play well back in the 1950's in Carolina, how did Denny Hastert, Roy Shimkus, probably even Tom DeLay, think it would play out in 2006?

Rep. Christopher Shays (R-Connecticut), one of the few GOPers I refer to as a Republican and not a ReThug, has already slung the entire GOP leadership under the bus for this one. Many more to follow. Pay attention to a comment from a blogger over at Steve Gilliard's:

astounding < disgusting.

I'm all for cronyism and circling the wagons... but this is sick, cult-like, sh--.

I feel tainted even having my views associated with these f'king sickos.

Gawd.

Turning a blind eye to f--king pedophiles.

Every single one who knew anything should be investigated and resign if they were involved or knew of anything. I don't even care if they thought they were just inappropriate emails... after the Clenis spectacle they have no business acting like it was his personal sexual whatever-the-f--k.

F'ing disturbing.

I hate our society.

Ether feels very strongly about this. I had to edit, because I didn't want to offend with the swear words, but his post says he's a Republican who's sickened by the degree of party loyalty being sworn here. Another poster suggested that the reason the DLC continues to try and play footsie with the ReThugs is because KKKarl Rove may be channeling J. Edwina Hoover and compiled files on them like Hoover did on Malcolm, Martin and Medgar. Hmmmm...

Memo Warning to Harold Ford - Still want to build bridges to a group of politicos that knowingly aide, abett and provide comfort to child predators? I hope your political ambition isn't to the extent that you feel the need to say "yes"...

FROM THADDEUS MATTHEWS...

A picture or poster can often say a thousand words. The following poster about Harold Ford, Jr.'s Senate Campaign says volumes about the type of Senator he may be if he gets that Senate seat:



It seems that Rep. Ford has what I call a "Michael Jackson" Problem; he can't tell if he's Black or White.

With all the pressures of campaigning, my only hope is that his campaign doesn't get tied to the current sex scandal going on with Rep. Mark Foley of Florida. I say that because Harold so aspires to be like his GOP bretheren rather than be a true Democrat.

And the irony of it all is, Corker's still running ads painting him as a liberal Democrat, and Harold can't challenge him on it because Corker would have to admit that Harold votes the ReThug ticket as well as Corker does...

Ah, what a tangled web we weave, when we first practice to deceive...those in East Tennessee that you're a ReThug in Democrats' clothing.

Hat tip to Thaddeus Matthews for the photoshop poster...
