NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 2)

No doubt the same kids who like to pee in litter boxes provided by the schools.

I haven’t seen that, but what the hell they believe this crap what won’t they believe. I may just have to start drinking again. :tumbler_glass: :roll_eyes:

I don’t know what event they might be referring to or whether it actually happened, but it is customary to tip drag-show performers with dollar bills.

(By handing the bills over or throwing them onstage, not by stuffing them into G-strings or cleavage etc. A drag show is not a strip club, and some drag shows are explicitly marketed as “family-friendly” or “kid-friendly”. And as this author notes, if you’re okay with half-naked cheerleaders shaking their booties in front of families in sports arenas, or child beauty pageants with prepubescent contestants in bikinis and high heels and makeup, you really don’t have a leg to stand on to complain about kid-friendly drag shows.)

I’m holding out for drag queen litter boxes in schools. They’ll be known as “glitter boxes.”

That can’t be real news. The GOP in Texas doesn’t trust science.

Wow. Well, I guess he kind of got what he wanted there. Isn’t he trying to get his savior’s name (no, not Trump; the one from 2,000 years ago) on people’s lips. I just watched this to the end and all I could say was, “Jesus Christ!”

This is so good. You deserve a prize!

Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) called out Republican rival J.D. Vance for saying conspiracy theorist Alex Jones was a credible source of information and then lying about it during Monday night’s combative debate between the two U.S. Senate candidates.

Vance insisted: “This is a complete fabrication. I never said that.”

“You’re on tape, man,” Ryan shot back. “It’ll be like 30 minutes and we’re all going to know you’re lying.”

I understand that these people can lie to their base without much trouble, but I can’t understand why they lie to the general public about things so blatantly easy to prove.

Because it is understood by his followers that lying and hypocrisy are tools to pwn the libs, and nothing more.

I’m not sure there’s such a thing as “the general public” anymore.

Listening to that whole, “You hate Jesus!” rant, I’m reminded on an old line, “It’s not the band I hate, it’s their fans…”

If I were to meet the Biblical Jesus, I suspect we’d get along quite well. It’s all these fake-ass “Christians” that annoy me.

“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.” ~ Gandhi

Apparently fake quote.

The pendulum can’t swing back soon enough. I understand republicans are going to vote republican (and the same for dems), I just wish they’d pick better republicans to vote for. A handful of old leaves would be better than MTG.
Look, I get ‘owning the libs’ but there must be someone out there that can own us without resorting to accusations of Jewish Space Lasers.
Hopefully, at some point, the people voting for the likes of her will realize that they won but now they’ve got a moron in charge. Like voting to replace the school principal with a dog to prove a point, but now the place is in shambles because the dog doesn’t know he needs to hire a plumber to fix the broken lateral and the basement is filling with sewerage.

I saw this clip (or rather heard someone else watching it) of MTG being given a great opportunity to clear her name. Her opponent essentially gave her the chance to pick anything she wanted that she’s been accused of lying about and explain herself. Instead she doubled down and launched right into the “the dems are offended because I’m speaking the truth” shtick. I like that as she starts to reply he says ‘you always do this’.

Note: I didn’t watch the entire thing thing and I don’t know anything about the guy commentating, it was just the first clip of the debate I could find.

I wish they wouldn’t label these encounters/confrontations “debates.” Debates are an actual Thing and name-calling, verbal punch fests aren’t debates. That goes for the so-called “Presidential Debates,” too.

This is what happens when you go to Abe Lincoln’s Twitter for your quotes.

Can you imagine the conspiracy theories that would be started if Obama had distributed DNA kits to schools?

No, it does seem as though that’s the best the Republican party has to offer these days.

I think this is not a “pendulum” situation-This is a “car careening over a cliff” situation.
