Stupid Republican idea of the day

Well, dang, we wouldn’t want the US to interfere with foreign governments or their policies, that would set a terrible precedent.

OK, to be fair, I am not 100% certain this guy is a Republican, but being an Orange County lawyer who repeatedly uses the word “sodomite” in his ballot measure to legalize executing gays I am willing to go out on a limb.

Lawyer Proposes California Ballot Measure Allowing Shooting, Killing Gays

To clarify, Cotton is not against The US interfering with other governments. He is against Obama doing it.

Bristol Palin’s fiancee, Medal Of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer, says that having unsecured guns around babies is “just how we roll”. Yes, there’s a picture of him with a baby and a pistol laying on the table next to them.

I presume that the Medal of Honor is awarded for bravery, not for brainpower.

A Venn diagram of all the spheres of Carson’s knowledge would resemble our solar system; or perhaps, galaxy.

Meh. It’s not like it’s within reach of the baby.

A Venn diagram of the spheres of Ben Carson’s knowledge would look like one of Herman Cain’s pizzas after a roomful of drunks and stoners. A bit of mushroom, a partial slice of olive, some flecks of onion, a strand of cheese stuck to the cardboard and a couple pieces of crust that someone did not want to eat. Carson’s actual intellectual ability resembles the grease stains.

Jeb: “People have a right” to refuse services to gays.

Yes. And, for both reasons, it has often been awarded posthumously.

Mr. Articulate: “I don’t know about the law, but religious freedom is a serious issue, and it’s increasingly so, and I think people that act on their conscience shouldn’t be discriminated against, for sure. There should be protections, and so, as it relates to marriage equality — and that may change, the Supreme Court may change that. That automatically then shifts the focus to people of conscience, and, I don’t know, have their faith make — they want to act on their faith, and may not be able to be employed for example.”

Well that damns him from winning the WH. But that complete bullshit and useless “religious freedom” brand of snake oil may just keep him on the ballot.

That just makes me so very happy. I can see the day when public relief becomes mandatory to keep the poor fundies alive. Then they’ll have to form themselves into ghettoes, where they can have their own laws and customs.

Then, the pogroms! :smiley:

I’m positively giddy!

Well, as long as it contributes to ensuring that the Republican on the ballot is unelectable, I’d call this complete bullshit brand of snake oil pretty useful.

Browsing through the comments, I think Dan Zucker says it best (entire unedited and unemphasized comment):

“The motto is on the language of the foreigners trying to take over the country shood be chinese, since they are more than the mexicans go back to Kenya! i don’t speak ATHEIST.”

Oops, Poe’s Law in action.

Dan Zucker is destined to be a Republican heavyweight.

The author of that article, Doktor Zoom (we’ve been misattributing it to Wonkette), is of the opinion that Dan Zucker is actually parodying the other posts. Further posts by Zucker on that page seem to back this up.

“What have the Romans ever done for us?”

I could definitely see it that way.

Peace?
