She made millions of American men peer into their souls are realize, to their horror, that yes, yes, they would…
Well, what would you do with a perfectly good sailing-ship-cum- time-machine after you’ve gotten through rescuing the Pilgrims and Puritans from socialism? Bring some right-thinking early 19th century Real Americans ™ forward to combat all this unAmerican drivel about human rights and equal justice under law, of course!
To hear you lib’ruls talk, you’d think history was something static, not subject to revision by popular vote like [del]evolutionary[/del] biology!
Probably have to swing by 1864 to really fix things.

Stupid Republican idea of the day: put Michelle Bachmann on the House Intelligence Committee!
On the plus side, this could shut her up…
Now it really is an oxymoron.
Aw crap. This will do just the opposite. Now she can say any radical dimwitted thing she wants and support here position by saying that all of the evidence is classified.
“I have proof that the movement to eliminate of DADT was funded by North Korea. It’s classified so I can’t show it to you, but I’ve seen it.”
“I have proof that the Democratic party is really being run by terrorist-commie-Islamic-Nazi-atheists It’s classified so I can’t show it to you, but I’ve seen it.”
etc.
Not that having no evidence to back her up has ever stopped her before.
Here is another candidate for today:
State lawmaker wannts to ban gays from Virginia National Guard
Did someone slip rep Marshall a copy of the “wacky constitution” without telling him?
That could explain things.
It seems that some people think that not being discriminated against is a “special right” and hence unconstitutional. At least that’s the gist I got from the freeper forum before I grew bored with insanity and bigotry and stopped reading.
Indeed…
[QUOTE=L. Sprague deCamp, “Lest Darkness Fall”]
“You don’t like the Goths?”
“No! Not with the persecution we have to put up with!”
“Persecution?” Padway raised his eyebrows.
“Religious persecution. We won’t stand for it forever.”
“But I thought the Goths let everybody worship as they pleased.”
“That’s just it! We Orthodox are forced to stand around and watch Arians and Monophysites and Nestorians and Jews going about their business unmolested, as if they owned the country! If that isn’t persecution, I’d like to know what is!”

And the “Death Panel” meme – slightly modified, but paying overt homage to its Palin-coined stupidity – makes a comeback.
Oh sweet fucking Christ. Telling people about what their options are does not equal murdering them in their beds.
B - b - but they want to actually pay them to tell people about what their options are. Those Monsters!!!1!!!one!!!eleventy-one!
To be fair, murdering them in their beds IS one of the options.
Oh, here’s a new one (rather than a re-tread like I posted earlier today):
Republican-controlled House rules will require a supporting cite of Constitutional authority for every bill.
'Cuz, y’know, more useless bureaucracy is sorely needed in the not-quite-most-deliberative-body.
Not to mention that everyone knows how woefully inept SCotUS is (well, perhaps some would argue that’s true with the Roberts court, but never-you-mind).
Worse, the fact that it’s nothing more than a superficial symbolic sop thrown to overly (and overtly!) obnoxious HCR-hatin’, birth-certificate-wantin’, socialism-fearin’ Tea Partiers.
Worst of all is that that last will likely work with some. Urgh.
So, most every bill will end with the words “OK per the Commerce Clause”, except defense spending?

I don’t normally complain, but this article is coated with a layer of slime. Do you have a fresh copy?
That’d be my guess.
Another “new rule” (whooda thunk that House Republicans would steal Bill Maher’s schtick?) that I think most of the country would find stupid, but is politically smart on their part is House Republican Rule Changes Pave the Way For Major Deficit-Increasing Tax Cuts, Despite Anti-Deficit Rhetoric.
Tax-cuts, the answer to any question. The hell with pay-as-you-go, deficits don’t matter! Except when they can be blamed on Democrats…
Where in the Constitution does it give them the authority to do that?
Article I Section 5 Paragraph 2
Bolded text.
I assume I was just whooshed?
