Shut Up Fool Awards-End of The SCOTUS Term Edition

Yesterday was the end of the Supreme Court's 2011-12 term that started back in October and I'm still shocked, surprised, relieved and happy about the 5-4 decision that upheld the Affordable Care Act AKA Obamacare.

That 5-4 ruling upholding it has pissed off the wingers since they thought the 5-4 was going their way along with much of liberal progressive world.  

Well, Chief Justice John Roberts had a trick for y'all and said otherwise (snicker, snicker).   Y'all won't have him and the SCOTUS to kick around until the first Monday in October. 

It's Friday people, and you longtime TransGriot readers know what that means!   It's time to do our weekly public service of exposing the fool fool or group of fools hat deserve to have their ignorance, stupidity and all around award winning foolishness called out and given our illustrious award.

We have a long list of contenders this week for the last Shut of Fool award of the month.  Fox Noise, the radfems, the House Republicans, GOProud, the Democrats who sold out and voted yes on the Holder Contempt of Congress vote, Mitt Romney, last week's winner Eric Hovde, Fox Noise, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), Rep Eric Cantor (R-VA), Sen John Cornyn (R-TX), Rep. John Mica (R-FL), Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Rep.Jeb Hensarling (R-TX), Gov Rick Perry (R-TX) , Rep Jean Schmidt (R-OH), Rep Paul Ryan (R-WI), and Rep Allen West (R-FL).   .

Honorable mention goes to Rep Mike Pence (R-IN)  for comparing yesterday's SCOTUS ruling upholding the ACA to 9-11.

Honorable mention number two goes to Matt Davis, the former spokesperson from the Michigan Republican Fascist party that has called for an armed rebellion against the federal government.   Um dude, you know that's sedition, right? .

Honorable mention number three goes to drag queen Sharon Needles AKA Aaron Coady,  for making transphobic comments and signing an autograph of his photo to a woman of color with the n-word, and then getting huffy and using the RuPaul 'bash the activists' playbook when he gets called out and protested in the ATL on his bull feces.

Honorable mention number four goes to Mike Turzai, who admitted why Pennsylvania and all those other Republifool controlled states have been merrily passing voter ID suppression laws before November 6




This week's Shut up Fool award goes to Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)  His bigoted azz is even worse than his daddy Ron. (yeah, I said it) and wins this week's award for his breathtaking hypocrisy and lack of knowledge about the Constitution in the wake of yesterday's ruling. .


Just because a couple people on the Supreme Court declare something to be ‘constitutional’ does not make it so. The whole thing remains unconstitutional. While the court may have erroneously come to the conclusion that the law is allowable, it certainly does nothing to make this mandate or government takeover of our health care right.

Guess you forgot your Political Science 101. When the SCOTUS rules on a case, it's constitutional and it's over.

You would have felt differently had Justice Roberts went the other way, huh? 

Sen. Rand Paul, shut up fool!
