Rishell Back For Another Thumping!
By Greg L | 3 February 2009 | Jeanette Rishell | 9 Comments
Jeanette Rishell, the far-left liberal two time loser who failed to defeat Delegate Jackson Miller in 2006 and 2007 recently sent out an email to supporters announcing her intention to run again this November. This should be endlessly amusing. Her previous campaigns have been positively comedic — getting wrong the number of precincts she will be running in, goofing so badly in ham-handed attacks that the MJM wrote editorials condemning her behavior, putting campaign signs in front of the “Liberty Wall”, and being a prominent local spokesperson fighting against the Marriage Amendment — all political gaffes that provide ample fodder for local bloggers. I am completely overjoyed.
In her first run against Delegate Miller in a special election, Rishell lost by 9 points during an election cycle that strongly favored Democrats. In 2007, Rishell’s margin of failure widened to about twenty points. If Maximum Leader Obama manages to achieve a miracle by rescuing the economy by miring the country in debt and expanding increasingly unaffordable entitlement programs, maybe, just maybe Rishell would have a chance. When this utterly irresponsible goofball idea takes a bad economy and makes it tremendously worse, the certain result of trying to spend your way out of bankruptcy, instead of a bad candidate running a bad campaign during a favorable election cycle, we will have a bad candidate running a bad campaign during a bad election cycle.
I wonder if Judy Feder will run as well, and she and Feder can do photo shoots in front of gas stations while predicting future gas prices. This is the most amusing news since hearing that Faisal Gill is considering a run in the 51st District.
Some folks just can’t grasp the lessons that overwhelming defeat should provide.

Oh boy. I can’t wait to see her run from my door after I ask her one too many questions.
One other telling sign was one of her employees from the mortgage company she used to work at was one of the biggest Jackson supporters during the first campaign If you can’t even keep your employees on your side, what does that say?
I guess she is hanging in there hoping there has been enough of a demographic change in the district.
Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists,
and Obama supporters, et al: We have stuck together since the late 1950’s,
but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want
a divorce. I know, we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future
generations, but, sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological
sides of America cannot, and will not ever agree on what is right, so let’s just
end it on friendly terms. We can smile, chalk it up to irreconcilable differences,
and go our own way.
Here is a model separation agreement:
1. Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a
portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come
to a friendly agreement. After that it should be relatively easy! Our respective
representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such
distinct and disparate tastes.
2. We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to
the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our
firearms, the cops, the NRA, and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael
Moore, and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a
bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them.)
3. We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies,
Wal-Mart, and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys,
hippies, and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy
CEO’s, and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .
4. You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade
and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks, and war
protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we’ll help
provide them security.
5. We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values. You are welcome
to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.
But we will no longer be paying the bill.
6. We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks, and oversized luxury cars. You can take
every Subaru station wagon you can find. You can give everyone health care, if
you can find any practicing doctors. We’ll continue to believe health care is a
luxury and not a right. We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the
National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to
Teach the World to Sing, Kum By Ya, or We Are the World.
7. We’ll practice trickle-down economics, and you can give trickle up poverty
your best shot. Since it often so offends you we’ll keep our history, our name,
and our flag.
Would you agree to this? If so please pass it along to other like-minded
liberal and conservative patriots, and if you do not agree, just hit delete.
In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will
need whose help in 15 years.
Sincerely,
John J. Wall.

Was there an intelligent thought or opinion in there anywhere, citizenofpipe? Interesting that you are unable to offer anything but nonsense in support of Feder and Rishell. That was certainly all they were able to offer during their previous disasters…particularly Rishell.
Note to others: Obviously my comment seems out of context, however, I was responding to a comment which Greg has seen fit to delete. It was most certainly NOT in response to citizenofmanassas.
Jeanette’s got a foxy daughter.
AWCheney,
Pipe made no sense. I read the comment last night and really didn’t understand any of it. Maybe he/she was smoking a pipe when they wrote it?
AW,
Don’t worry, I did not think that was directed toward me.
Greg - how about a thread on the “stimulus” package? Rishell is always an amusing topic but this discussion mixes the the two subjects. Thanks
don’t worry there is another dem about to jump in who will beat her in the primary.
