Stupid Republican idea of the day

[Zakalwe]

@C3

Is this a “stupid” Republican idea or a slimy, disgusting, assholish Republican idea?

NC Legislature votes for a referendum on an amendment to the state Constitution banning gay marriage. They schedule the vote for…the same day as the Republican primary in NC. Fucking bastards.

But you just don’t understand! They’re trying to save money by combining elections! It’s all about efficiency in government! There is no other motive! Just coincidence really, nothing to see here…

Michele Bachmann said of Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio “He’s a great guy, anyone would want his endorsement.” There is speculation he would become Attorney General under a President Bachmann.

Arpaio is in the news recently for starting a special investigation about an illegal Black alien wielding power in Washington, but was already famous:

An analysis by the Maricopa County Office of Management and Budget, completed in September, 2010, found Arpaio has misspent almost $100 million in taxpayer dollars over the previous 5 years.

…
Arpaio has been a controversial sheriff. Arpaio’s practices have been criticized by organizations such as Amnesty International, the American Civil Liberties Union, the Arizona Ecumenical Council, the American Jewish Committee, and the Arizona chapter of the Anti-​Defamation League. The editorial board of The New York Times called Arpaio “America’s Worst Sheriff”. Controversial issues surrounding Arpaio have included allegations of racial profiling, in which the ACLU has sued the sheriff.
…
In 2008 a federal grand jury began an inquiry of Arpaio for abuse of power, in connection with an FBI investigation. Arpaio is being investigated for politically motivated and “bogus” prosecutions, which a former US Attorney called “utterly unacceptable”. Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon has called Arpaio’s “long list” of questionable prosecutions “a reign of terror”.
…
In 1997, Amnesty International published a report on Arpaio’s jails which found that Tent City is not an “adequate or humane alternative to housing inmates in suitable … jail facilities.”

Maybe he can get O.J. to help him look for it.I assume the real birth certificate is on a golf course.

Doesn’t the Attorney General have to be… you know, an attorney?

The Feds have been sniffing around lately. He’s setting himself up for “Obama is trying to silence me because I speak the truth!”

Ray Lewis should be appointed Secretary of Defense.

I don’t think he’s necessarily fucking with them. All the quote says is he’s been criticized by them.

Rick Santorum thinks that Google is discriminating against him for being a conservative.

“I suspect if something was up there like that about Joe Biden, they’d get rid of it,” Santorum said. “If you’re a responsible business, you don’t let things like that happen in your business that have an impact on the country.”

He continued: “To have a business allow that type of filth to be purveyed through their website or through their system is something that they say they can’t handle but I suspect that’s not true.”

Is Rick Santorum familiar with the internet at all? Spreading Santorum* is positively G-rated compared to the vast ocean of filth that Google is so helpful in sorting through for us. Er, I hear.

And well done, Rick, for giving lots of websites a new reason to link to it, thus keeping it high in the Google search results. You idiot.

*Note: It’s just words but it does reference icky sex-related stuff. Be warned.

Boy, do I wish. That would really make the site jump, wouldn’t it?

I could quite easily picture Arpaio (unconstitutionally) denying Jewish prisoners adequate kosher options and issues along those lines.

[Boyo_Jim]

Isn’t dirt kosher?

Good point. I wouldn’t be surprised.

They can eat baloney sandwiches and like it. They also have to like pink underwear.

Unless they bowdlerize or gerrymander their search results, ceasing and desisting from their machiavellian and chauvinistic, if not downright sadistic, attempt lynch him and paint him as a martinet with this electronic ponzi scheme, his supporters will boycott.

Man, imagine what that will do to Google’s ad revenuse on bible bumper stickers and scat fetish gear!
