What's Mallard raving about today?
Mitt Romney, President Obama, Candy Crowley
What's fascinating here is the glimpse into the fantasy world Mallard Fillmore inhabits. A world in which, had Candy Crowley not pointed out a fact, Mitt Romney would have won the election.
It's precisely that completely nuance-less, Black-and-White thinking that makes Republicans so stupid and dangerous at the same time.

That damned News
What's Mallard raving about today?
Joe Biden
Yeah, uh. no.
Republican positions are funnier than the 47% of dead-enders who still believe in them realize. And Joe Biden was using that fact to wipe the floor with the "intellectual giant" of the Republican movement, otherwise known as the guy who, unlike most people, didn't outgrow Atlas Shrugged.

That damned Business
What's Mallard raving about today?
Santa, Elves, Taxes
Mallard Fillmore: The only thing wrong about Mitt Romney's 47% remark is that he got the percentage wrong. since 51% of moochers and takers voted for President Obama. But don't worry, continuing to insult 51% of America will win us the next election!

That damned Word
What's Mallard raving about today?
Frankly, I don't know.
The language of this makes it pretty hard to understand what Mallard is getting at, but I think he's suggesting that he doesn't believe Republicans, in the wake of their disastrous 2012 Election results, need to re-package their message (let alone change their positions). Mallard is arguing for the status quo, in the apparent hope that if they just shout their beliefs loudly one more time, this time everyone will get it and we'll all become Republicans.
Because, you know, it's not that their policies are wrong, it's just that everyone else's attitude toward their policies is wrong.
And one wonders how they led themselves to ignore all available facts and believe they were about to score a huge Electoral victory in 2012?

Those damed Naughties
What's Mallard raving about today?
The Media, The Election
After being President for 4 years, Mallard still thinks the President hasn't been vetted. And if people would just buy into all the conspiracy theories that Breitbart and Town Hall make up, which Fox propagates wildly, and which credulous idiots like himself believe...then President Romney!

Those damned Services
What's Mallard raving about today?
Santa Claus, President Obama
Well, at least we finally know what "lesson" Mallard learned from the election. It's that 51% of America are greedy moochers, sucking the blood of Real Americans as they live in the lap of luxury courtesy of Government hand-outs.
Good luck with that in 2014!

That damned Coincidence
What's Mallard raving about today?
2012 Election
Yes, Mallard. That's the lesson of the 2012 election. Keep thinking that until at least 2016. Please.
And if possible, say it a lot. In public.

That damned Initiative
What's Mallard raving about today?
President Obama
Hey, Mallard...Republicans took their case that President Obama was to blame for the Economy and got crushed. So, you know, no one really cares what you think about the matter, since we have data to prove that you're in the minority.

That damned Racism
What's Mallard raving about today?
Racism
Oh, don't worry, Mallard. Republicans are hard at work across America to insure we all know that racism is still very much alive.
Whether it be a race riot at Ole Miss.
Or casual racism on Twitter.
Or GOP mouthpieces like Ann Coulter spouting coded racism (makers versus takers) or Rush Limbaugh (Democrats want Amnesty voters).
In all seriousness, however...keep it up. Nothing makes me more hopeful for the future of America than the fact that Right Wing ideologues can't help alienating large swaths of America and can't understand why they lose elections when they do.

Those damned Noses
What's Mallard raving about today?
Election
Mallard's "pox on both your houses" would ring truer if, once in the last 4 years, he had demonstrated and shades of moderation. But, of course, Mallard is holding his nose because he lacks a candidate to the ideological right of the current Republican Party.

That damned Poll
What's Mallard raving about today?
President Obama
And there it is. It took almost 4 years, but finally Mallard admits what is bothering him all this time.
But, you know, other people are the racists.

Once again, better that than Republican voters who willfully choose to believe complete falsehoods, despite all evidence to the contrary.

Those damned Things
What's Mallard raving about today?
Hallowe'en, Political Ads
The first one is true, which is plenty scary. So if you're saying there's no reason to gild the lilly since actual Republican positions are frightening as hell to anyone not in the 1%, we can agree on that.
(Strangely, Mallard does not seem upset about Romney ads which tell an outright lie about Obamacare taking money from Medicare. I wonder why that could be?)
I will say, however, I very much appreciate that Mallard has decided to just ride the same Hollowe'en punch line ("thing I don't like is scaaaaaary!") for a solid week. Saves on thinking which in his case is a good thing.

When your party's intellectual "giant" gets obliterated on substance, this is what you complain about.
