Big Joe: ….I wouldn’t mind you being so stupid if you was good company, but you ain’t even that.

Today we spotted our first rMoney bumper sticker in the field:

Right wingnut. Check. Right wingnut. Check. No one has any idea. Lobbyist. Check.

Spotted out and about:

“wag more, bark less”

Ever.

Competing visions in a parking lot in Belton, Missouri on Saturday:

They’ll add the corporate sponsorships later.

What a quaint notion.

Who needs a vote when you’ve got Citizens United on your side?

Turning left.

We’re all Mayans now. Either that, or it’s a parking permit.

Today, bumpers stickers spotted on vehicles in west central Missouri:

Did anyone ask Joe Lieberman?

Ah, they must think the nation longs for the good old days.

Not exactly.

Via the Great Orange Satan:

If dubya were running today do you think he’d get to 35%? And Mitt Romney (r) wants us to return to the good old days. Good luck with that.

Spotted today on a vehicle with Kansas plates on U.S. Highway 50, west of Jefferson City, Missouri:

Calvin and Hobbesism (left) and Hope and Stay the Course (right).

Synchronicity.

Reportedly from a Mitt Romney (r) press availability today:

Question: When you did an interview with Sean Hannity in February, you said that you believed that Obama is trying to make America a less Christian nation. It was responding to quote that he had just played for you on the radio. Do you stand by that? And do you believe that President Obama’s world view was shaped by Reverend Wright and do you see evidence of that in his policies?

Mitt Romney: I’m not familiar precisely with what I said, but I’ll stand by what I said whatever it was.

Mitt Romney (r), on Sean Hannity’s (r) radio show, February 7, 2012:

Mitt Romney (r): ….I, I, I, uh, I think again that, that the president, uh, takes his, his, uh, philosophical leanings in this regard, uh, not from those who are, uh, uh, ardent, uh, believers in, in various faiths but instead from, from those who would like to see America more secular. [crosstalk] And I’m not sure which is worse, uh, him listening to Reverend Wright or him, him saying that, uh, uh, that we, uh, we must be a, a less, uh, Christian nation….

Throw everything against the wall, and see if anything sticks. It’s the republican way.

“…I’m not familiar precisely with what I said…”

He can’t remember haircuts, either.

Today, in west central Missouri, in the same parking lot:

The cult of the lost cause (left) and triumphalism (right) – never the twain shall meet.

…and the guy who continually says, “Oops.” It’s enough to bring tears to your eyes.

On a vehicle in west central Missouri.

There’s always the cult of the lost cause.
