Does he get to keep his whip?
Candidate for Illinois state’s attorney plays down dressing as “battered Tiger Woods” by saying SNL did something very similar. No, Mr. Tone-Deaf Republican, SNL used an actual black guy.
Hey, he totally can ! Provided Congress repeals that one law. It’s not like it’s in the Constitution or anything. Plus Congress has always been nothing but amenahahahaha sorry couldn’t keep a straight face there.
Deformative Action. Obama’s fault, totally.
What a shithead! I mean, really! Look at that picture- he looks like he has shit smeared on his face. :eek:
Brief interruption for a Public Service Announcement…
**This Sunday is National Gorilla Suit Day!

Sadly, the entire thing doesn’t seem to be available online, and to my knowledge hasn’t been reprinted, so you need a copy of the 1963 paperback Don Martin Bounces Back! to read the entire opus. I’ve got a copy. It is definitely worth it.
The best I can offer is a link to a bunch of out-of-order and incomplete images from the story:
As the Dickies play in mind…
You drive me APE
You big gorilla!
You drive me APE APE
I wanna tell ya
So that sting operation of a Houston Planned Parenthood selling baby parts has finally resulted in indictments. Not for anyone working at Planned Parenthood mind you, they’ve been cleared of any unlawful act which makes this the 11th time nationally in this latest stint of GOP investigations that have failed to reveal any misconduct by PP.
No, the two indicted are David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt, the sting operatives sent from the Center for Medical Progress. They’re looking at 20+ years in jail for tampering with government records, lying under oath and buying human body parts. No one is sure about that last bit because the courts haven’t released the evidence.
And naturally,
Sure, we’re focusing on elected Republicans in this thread, but there isn’t a particle of me that believes these clowns vote for anyone but the craziest Republican candidates. And there isn’t a Republican Presidential candidate that hasn’t cited this dust up to rally their base.
I’ve purchased the giant Don Martin anthology. But we had Don Martin Bounces Back when I was a kid–and the story of National Gorilla Suit Day seared itself into my young mind.
Inspired silliness is so much better than bad craziness…
I’ve got that anthology, too. But, to the best of my knowledge, it only has stuff that appeared in Mad magazine, not in any of the Signet books, including this one. AFAIK, you still need the 1963 book to read National Gorilla Suit Day.
. . . There are marriages in Tennessee?!
Marriage, adoption, same dif.
And married hetero couples who hate gay folks are okay with thiss It’s hard to understand the mind of a hater, but it seems to me if my state lawmaker voided my marriage in their quest to hurt gay folks, I’d be pissed.
But the Tea Party Governor and Attorney General said the indictments and lack of indictments of Planned Parenthood will not interfere with their continuing investigation of Planned Parenthood.
In other news, the Governor of Maine wants to bring back the guillotine.
Derplahoman legislature in session and in top form. The state is a billion in the red budget-wise and cutting like mad. Education is already slashed (making a run at Mississippi for last place). However lawmakers are concerned about controversies, theories, administrators interfering with teachers who might introduce scientific weaknesses, and all the other code words.
Chief idiot legislator Sally Kern has introduced protection for these besieged teachers who are “just asking questions”. Sally has been a topic on this board/thread in the past.
Here are the details of Kern’s bill via The National Center for Science Education.
“The bill would require state and local educational authorities to “assist teachers to find more effective ways to present the science curriculum where it addresses scientific controversies” and permit teachers to “help students understand, analyze, critique, and review in an objective manner the scientific strengths and scientific weaknesses of existing scientific theories pertinent to the course being taught,” prohibiting administrators from interfering. As introduced, the bill specifically mentions “biological evolution, the chemical origins of life, global warming, and human cloning” as subjects which “some teachers may be unsure” about how to teach.”
An almost identical bill was introduced by another legislator.
"Josh Brecheen’s legislation is a virtual clone of Kern’s bill. Actually, let’s say it “evolved” from Kern’s bill just to piss him off. It’s called the **“Oklahoma Science Education Act.”

It’s that heathen, unwashed French influence . . . Maine is entirely too close to New Brunswick . . .
Was the guillotine ever used in the US? Or anywhere not-France? Was beheading ever a practiced method of execution in the US (outside of incorrectly-calculated hangings)?
I wouldn’t bet my left nut on it or anything, but I expect Napoléon exported it wherever he set up his puppet states all over Europe - and some may have kept it afterwards. Same goes for French Indochina & those parts of Africa we set up shop in back in the bad old days.
