Folks just keep climbing higher and higher, doing and saying crazier and crazier shit as their oxygen-starved brains continue to shrivel, but they never reach the top...OBShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11290768768025981403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4262822907764537858.post-48335516419553500592012-03-13T09:06:18.237-05:002012-03-13T09:06:18.237-05:00I'm trying to rethink the way I consider Peak ...I'm trying to rethink the way I consider Peak Wingnut. I treat it almost as a physical limit, that at some point, the landscape will be littered with braised, shredded grey matter, like a Famous Dave's From Hell, as their heads go all splodey. I should consider it, instead, as a goalpost, created by the usual suspects, and unreachable as a calculable number. The greater the wingnut, the better the repubs electoral chances. <br /><br />What would happen if they could impeach in the lame duck? Would it then go to the newly constructed senate at the beginning of the new legislative session, or in other words, must an impeachment trial be considered in the same legislative session that impeachment took place in? IANAL, and some of the math out there right now makes the Senate look sort of ugly for this election.<br /><br />M. Bouffant, I'll take that bet. The electoral college got the texan close enough to victory with a loss of the popular vote, that the Supremes only had to flip one state to give it to him. I don't know if the EC always works in favor of the Reputzes, but it did then.Rev. paleotectonicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05075546930890385711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4262822907764537858.post-47202439012567738572012-03-13T01:37:14.583-05:002012-03-13T01:37:14.583-05:00After three yrs. of no ...
Yep. Peak wing-nut is ...<i>After three yrs. of no ...</i><br /><br />Yep. Peak wing-nut is probably a mathematical impossibility. I'd bet they'll turn it up to 12 if he's reëlected, because "<i>Now</i> Obummer's gonna get whitey!!" <br /><br />The only question is whether they think they have enough votes in the old House to impeach before the new House is sworn in. Hey, who'll take a bet they'll try to fuck w/ the Electoral College?M.
