It's thinking like this from people such as these…

…that got us into such dire financial straits. The Republicans figure they haven't done enough to almost destroy America and its ideals. They are determined, after all those years of spending and borrowing such as never imagined, to complete the job and kill off our government. After all, they've gotten theirs already.

No greater indication of their desperation could exist to surpass this one:

Fresh off his stint as a war correspondent in Gaza, Joe the Plumber is now doing political strategy with Republicans.

When GOP congressional aides gather Tuesday morning for a meeting of the Conservative Working Group, Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher – more commonly known as Joe the Plumber — will be their featured guest. This group is an organization of conservative Capitol Hill staffers who meet regularly to chart GOP strategy for the week.

Wurzelbacher, who became a household name during the presidential election, will be focusing his talk on the proposed stimulus package. He's apparently not a fan of the economic rescue package, according to members of the group.

If nothing else, GOP aides are using the appearance to get staffers to attend the 9 a.m meeting.

“In case you weren’t planning to attend CWG tomorrow morning, you might want to reconsider because Joe the Plumber will be joining us!” Kimberly Wallner, an aide to South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint, wrote in a message to her e-mail list this afternoon.

Hooray! We can all sleep easy tonight knowing that an unemployed/never employed plumber and erstwhile political reporter will be on the job, round the clock, shirtsleeves rolled up as an indication of the hard work he has to do to help his desperate party, the GOP, recover their swagger, learn to spit chewin' tabaccy, start real physical fights with reporters from nations friendly to America, and, in general, show those wimpy, sniveling, girly-man, effete snobs that are clearly out to obstruct everything President Obama does or wants to do how to get the job finished off and end our freedoms.

I wrote President Obama yesterday to tell him that if the rethugs are refusing to vote, the Senate rule against filigusters should be temporarily suspended until the Democratic Party can show those @ssholes the good things government can do for America without the stupid, purely partisan politics of hate and bias as practiced by the God-cursed Obstruction Party
