Senator McConnell's Dishonest Christmas Wish




Hello, Senator McConnell. I’m stuck here on the internet, apologizing to the world for the Kentuckians who voted you into office. I wanted to take just a minute to wish you and yours the same worried, stressful Christmas that all Kentuckians and Americans who have to worry about whether or not they will suffer the consequences of your poor leadership and obstruction when the holidays are over will have.

I hope you get to spend a little time with your loved ones and that they will be able to convince you what a total jerk you have been to try and hold this country hostage once again so that you can protect your donors despite how much others have to suffer. If you think your little reminder to help those who are less fortunate made you sound like a good guy, you are sadly mistaken. It reminded me, as I’m sure it will remind others, just how heartless you are and how much you expect the rest of us to take care of others because you are too selfish, cold-hearted, and ugly to do what you should do.

If you are able to see the warmth and kindness of Kentuckians helping neighbors first hand, you must be invisible because those of us who care about helping others sure never see you.

Was your little ‘borrowing’ of President Obama’s warm wishes about pouring egg nog and enjoying Christmas music some sort of Freudian slip? Do you really want to let us know that you want to be him as much as Romney did? Maybe, if you would try to emulate him in actions instead of words, you could realize that dream.

The only way your ‘no need to argue with relatives’ closing could have been stupider or more transparent would have been for you to say, “If you have Republican relatives, I suggest you just stay home alone because no one needs to suffer that on a holiday.”

Wishing you the same Christmas that the families and friends of those lost in the Sandy Hook massacre have, since your party is hell bent on making sure every crazy person in this country owns a weapon of mass destruction,

Sandy

  1. I wonder if Mitch will spend time with his progressive daughters Eleanor, Claire and Porter or will he spend the Christmas season with his rich fundraising pals? Could it be that Mitch disabled the Youtube comments fearing his daughters might call him out?

    1. I thought it was odd that he disabled comments on his Christmas wish video, too, James. If his daughters were willing to go public, it seems like they would have done so already. (I missed if if they have.) I'm sad for them. Knowing how hurtful it is for me to realize that he is my Senator, I can only imagine how it would feel to have to claim him as a father.

  2. I agree. Why do Kentuckians continue to vote against their best interests? This liar is for the rich and only the rich.

    1. I don't know why Kentuckians continue to vote against their best interests. I'm guessing because they don't know better and vote for the name they recognize. I'm doing all I can to make sure his name is associated with - well, nothing good - the real him.

  3. I would look to school funding in Kentucky to find the answer...everyone knows, especially the like of Mr. McConnell that poorly educated people are easier to lie to and manipulate... it's happening all over the USA, we pay teachers less and less, in some places even deny science and ban the teaching of evolution, and thanks to the likes of McConnell make it increasingly more difficult for kids to get a higher education... not meaning to disparage the good people of Kentucky, but the evidence suggests...

  4. Great point, Anonymous. Rand Paul, our other embarrassing Senator in KY, held a telephone town hall (because he can't appear in public without head stompers and militias)in which he promoted his idea to do away with the Department of Education. One of the more laughable comments he made was for us to think about our kids learning geography from a text book published in a New England state. Geography. As though it changes from state to state like Texas history.
