Stupid Republican idea of the day

It’s the name. Sounds all Mooslim. Can’t have that as a major city - people might get the wrong idea.

It was a big deal in Mark Twain’s day – I guess when people started traveling by train instead of by riverboat, being situated on the river wasn’t all that anymore.

He would be Sean Hannity.

I think **Askthepizzaguy **is right. Beck intentionally chooses some insane ideas as the horses he’s betting on, and makes crazy good money.

The thing about Glen Beck is that his entire shtick is pushing the envelope of craziness further. unlike Limbaugh and Hannity, who are more or less seating themselves comfortably in the center of the extreme right, Beck’s presented views are constantly changing to keep his act fresh. I have this gut feeling that over time Beck is going to push the envelope out beyond Libertarianism into full fledged anarchy, then circumnavigating the political globe until he eventually reaches pro labor Liberal populism.

Its a long shot, but if it actually happens, you heard it here first. :smiley:

Don’t rule out a lateral move to fascism.

All-white Fox News panel demands apology for school’s Black History Month event.

The Senate Pubs’ budget proposal is apparently . . . delusional.

Marco Rubio’s op-ed gets an F.

  1. The second type could well be just using that reasoning as a cover for their malice. Look how catastrophic things get for the poor if they are wrong, yet they seem indifferent to that possibility.
  2. A difference that makes no difference, is no difference.

An uncanny reminder of the way the old Soviet Union declared dissidents to be insane and then locked them in asylums where they received shock treatments and such for their conditions.

How to balance the budget with Magickal Accounting:

And every Republican politician is scared to death to actually rebut these crazy statements, because they might be accused of making sense.

“You know that thing i spend about 20 percent on my budget on? That has nothing to do with how much debt i’m in!”

A group of New Hampshire 4th-graders got a lesson in sausagery when Republicans in the lege turned their bill to designate the official State Raptor into some incredibly divisive crazystupid.

Rep. Warren Groen (R) chose to use the moment to attack women’s reproductive freedom, saying, “It grasps them with its talons then uses its razor sharp beak to basically tear it apart limb by limb, and I guess the shame about making this a state bird is it would serve as a much better mascot for Planned Parenthood.”

Rep. John Burt opposed it because there are already too many laws.

The children watched there hope crash on the rocks, 133-160. I guess it was an education for them – too bad they will not be able to take part in voting these fucks out till the mid-'20s.

So, Republicans don’t have a problem with sex education, it just has to involve scary monster metaphors aimed at children too-young for sex ed classes.

The Brothers Grimm would be so pleased.

Six foot tall pile of longhorn manure passing as a human Louie Gohmert really REALLY wants to bomb Iran.

Iraq was not a real concern for the US twelve years ago, Iran is not a real problem for the US today, these people need to understand that Americans are not very interested in attacking countries that are not threats. Of course, shitpile just wants to bomb, none of that troublesome fighting on the ground. I guess so Iran can be softened up for an IS takeover.

Not at all, so long as they get to administer it personally, in one-on-one tutoring sessions. :slight_smile:

Come on, it’s cheating to use Louie Gohmert in this thread.

He’s already got the uniform.
