Watching C Span on a Friday night shows how old I am (actually I've done that at age 30 because I'm a huge loser nerd). The McCarthy chronicles had gone on for 4 days. Time after time a band of fascists had thwarted this spineless weasel's life mission to become Speaker. I mean this guy wanted to stand there with a giant prop gavel since he was a younger invertebrate cheating on his wife.
The Monday thru Thursday drama was good enough but Friday was primo. Time after time I waited for that moment when Reps Cloud and Clyde would stick a fork in the hopes and dreams of an insane man who never got sick of being humiliated. The nominating speeches were not so much hey this guy McCarthy is one righteous dude but more of a gang of unknown star fuckers trying to make name for themselves as Tracy Flick Elise Stefanik sat there marking down the vote with her #2 pencil and Big Chief tablet. Once we got into the 8s 9s 10s of nominating speeches it was getting thin and we were getting the likes of Arkansas nobody French Hill (real name) yapping about how the last time the Speakers vote went this long it turned out really hot dawg because the 1923 GOP finally got together to further the wonderful supply side policies of Calvin Coolidge, the architect of the Great Depression. Hill is a bad historian, a bad congressman and probably a bad christian.
On Friday you could see the cracks in the Crazy Caucus starting. Vote 12 was the first time the kooks lost a few holdouts who were promised something, probably the permission to attend cockfights or something. Steve Kornacki starts hopping around anticipating excitement (Kornacki earlier had said of the holdouts listed on his board "look at these fuh....guys here ! No Steve ...fuckers was right)
Vote 13 began after Rep James Comer of Kentucky, accused woman beater and abortion funder, nominated I think McCarthy by ranting about Fauci and Hunter Biden for 5 minutes and after the Jeffries nomination nobody stood up to nominate the Unabomber or somebody. Uh oh, this is it. But still Kevin "Harold Stassen" McCarthy somehow lost yet again.
Adjournment till 9pm CST when I will turn it back from whatever other nerd show I'm watching. Vote 14 begins and news networks are geeking out that McCarthy has made deals with Colorado cooze Lauren Boebert and Florida teen enthusiast Matt Gaetz and this will be the 14th time is a charm moment. But they screw him one last time. McCarthy gets all butthurt and scrambles up the aisle to confront the two mean kids from recess who turned out to be "white guy givers" and lied.
McCarthy points his finger a lot and expresses his concern that it might be a shame if Gaetz's venmo became public or if Boeberts client list was accidentally released (pure speculation) at which point McCarthy turns and leaves the rest of the threat to Alabama Mob Enforcer Mike Rogers who lunges at Gaetz almost losing that thing on his head and is pulled back by the designated peacemaker. At this point Gaetz folds like the pussy he is and somehow on the 15th vote Kevin McCarthy wins the chair and brand changer Marjorie Taylor Greene rushes down for a selfie making it even creepier.
What the promises made were made are unknown at this time but whatever they were are not good for people, pets, seniors, Ukrainians, children, Jews, minorities, women, Canadians, gays,sick people, voters, vets, or mankind.
It will be good for Pharma, defense contractors, covid, viruses we don't know about, Russians, Brazilian fascists, American fascists, thugs, bigots, haters, diabetes, mass murderers, militias, dumb white men, and Armageddon.
Buckle up.
