Stupid Republican idea of the day

If Obama was an illegal president, then they might argue that Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor should be summarily removed from the SCotUS and replaced with proper justices. Men. Because who the fuck puts girls on the Supreme Court??

I get it. If you know you look like an idiot whether you admit being wrong or not, isn’t the more attractive choice *not *to admit it?

Jason Reese, running for the Oklahoma House, listed as one of his “ordinary and necessary campaign expenses” an Internet video titled “Hotwife Chloe Needs to be Punished”.

He’s paying for internet porn? That is the kind of twisted judgement that Oklahoma needs right now!

That is surprising. Not that a Republican would be using campaign expenses on porn, but that a porn purveyor would list the charges that way. Usually they list the charges as something discreet and with plausible deniability, like, oh, say, “Anedot Credit Card Processing Fee”.

In other words, there’s not one porn listing on that page. There’s nine. Just on that one page. With no actual legitimate campaign expenses mixed in with them.

It’s not his money he’s paying with so why not?

If I was his opponent, I’d point this out as an example of Fiscal Irresponsibility on the part of Mr. Reese. Everyone knows the Internet is filled with free porn. :smiley:

Blame a staffer in 5, 4, 3…oh he already did.

What exactly was the human error that resulted in this listing?

You don’t typo porn titles. I think the error was that the staffer did not replace the entry with “Credit card processing fee”.

I note as well, that there are 4 other entries on that list that are all for the same amount, $10.05, all listed as processing fees.

Speaking of which, what kind of scam is being run on them, if those are legit entries? That’s quite a number of cc processing fees that they are paying there.

Anedot appears to be a legitimate company that processes credit card donations for non-profits and political campaigns. I’m not going to make too much of this one because I think it will turn out to be nothing, maybe a stupid prank. Theres too much real Republicsn stupidity out there for me to get worked up about this one.

Yep. Trump is carrying the whole team.

As befits their leader.

Not to put a damper on the fun, but I would appreciate a cite other than The Lost Ogle.

They cite his twitter feed as confirmation.

The man tries to edumacate himself about the justice system and people laugh at him. Harummpf!

Senator Ron Johnson thinks food, clothing, shelter and health care are privileges and not rights
A Republican senator told high schoolers health care isn't a right. Here's his justification | Salon.com?

There are no human rights, we made that shit up. Didn’t even try for “because reasons”, we just said it was “self-evident”, so there. Shut up any Tory who might say “Cite?”!

Actually, I have to agree with the idiot on this one. There’s nothing in the Bill of Rights about health care, or food or clothing or any other human physical necessity.

IMHO, that just means that we as a society need to agree that this is an oversight that needs to be rectified.

Well, if having clothes is a choice (like healthcare), why are there laws against public nudity? Help, help, I’m being repressed!

True enough. What if hot wife Chloe really does need to be punished?
