I heard a rumor that he was present when Glenn Beck allegedly raped and killed a girl in 1990. I’m not saying it is true, but neither of them deny it or made any official comment on the subject. And isn’t it interesting how the MSM dodges these allegations and never asks them any questions about the possible rape and murder of a young girl in 1990 at the hands of Glenn Beck while Ted Cruz watched ?
“You know nothing, Ted Snow!”
Because it tastes good. I like Clamato juice. I like it better than tomato juice. I like it better than V8 juice. Sue me.
Is there some way to get the benefit without actually swallowing any?
That’s what she said!
**Proof Positive – Many Republicans are Sexist Pigs Who Dislike Women For Being Female
**
How deep does Republican sexism go? A recent series of surveys demonstrates it clearly, according to this article from The Atlantic. The director of an outfit named Public Policy Polling had told a reporter named Paul Egan that Michigan governor Rick Snyder’s showing of a 5 percent favorability in a Republican primary Presidential candidate rating was just background noise – almost any name might get that percentage. They decided to test the theory by putting Egan’s named in as a potential Presidential candidate in their next poll.
Sure enough, Egan outscored Snyder with a favorable rating of six percent on the next poll.
Political scientiest Emily Farris heard about it and decided it would be a hoot to have her name in the next PPP Presidential poll and see what kind of numbers she got.
Well, she scored only a 3 percent favorability rating.
And a 20 percent unfavorability rating. That’s right, a huge percentage of Republican voters, well above background levels, disliked Farris for having a female name. Literally the ONLY thing they knew about her was that she was female, and they disliked her for that.
Pigs. Just. Fucking. Pigs.
The other day I read this article about these crazy (I mean, really crazy) misogynists and how the Charlize Theron character in the new Mad Max movie is making them even crazier than usual: women are NOT supposed to be in any kind of dominant, heroic, physically demanding role, and the fact that there is this new movie out is just a sign of the fall of civilization or some such…
Duke University professor Jerry Hough says Blacks riot because they’re lazier than Asians and have ‘strange’ un-American names.
You’re misrepresenting what was actually said. He never said rape could be beautiful. He said the children produced from it are.
In a way, I agree. I would hate for children of rape to feel ostracized because of their horrible fathers.
That said, his statements, do not justify any sort of abortion ban. That would be stupid.
Huh. I didn’t know David Duke had his own university, but the evidence seems to point that way…
Maybe this should go in the GOP Candidates thread, but it sure strikes me as sorta stupid. Scott Walker touts his foreign policy cred: he has been to six countries! (Germany, France, Spain, the UK, China, Japan and Israel). Says he wants to do foreign policy like Reagan. (Does that mean secretly funding illegal wars?)
No. Selling weapons to Iran.
Grenada needs another ass whoopin’! Who says GOPers can’t win wars?
Wait. This is all oxymoronic anyway. Didn’t Todd Akin inform us that this wasn’t possible? Remember, a woman’s body has a way to shut that whole thing down. The above-linked article even mentions it!
Well that is pretty dumb -
BUT…
It might be an interesting angle to explore IF you are able to frame the question / study properly.
Eg:
Selection of a name as wanting to belong to / be a part of the community, and what that means vs choosing a “unique” name and what broader parenting style this means vis a vis wanting to be different.
It could be something interesting to explore with a view to seeing if the former is more cognizant of community standards / punishments / mores than the latter?
Yeah - kinda tortured way of saying things -------
Right. Because white people have always been supportive of interracial relationships (especially in North Carolina) but have been thwarted by black people refusing to date them. That’s definitely what has been happening.
Methinks Professor Hough got shot down by a black female student of his at some point.
I like the part where he thinks folks choose their own names. Or are newborns already sentient enough to express opinions about xenophobia and immigrant integration?

Oh, and Scooter got a $10,000 campaign contribution from Minahan.
Wisconsin has become a political cesspool. Gogebic should have resulted in criminal charges against the Republicans. They got away with that so they just kept on.
