Stupid Republican idea of the day

@Equipoise

Well, he works for the people of South Carolina, many of whom voted for Obama. How about, considering the folks he answered to, who are not the people of South Carolina?

Distinction without a difference. If he wasn’t acting to advance the interests of the people of SC (and he wasn’t), does it matter?

Nope.

You said “considering the folks he worked for, fuck 'em” and I wasn’t ready to write off the whole state full of people. The Republican party though, you betcha. Fuck 'em. Jim Cornette had the right idea. “They’re idiots! Fucking idiots!”

He left from Atlanta, and went to Buenos Aires.

Yeah, I know, but city-distance didn’t have Buenos Aires in it for some reason, I couldn’t think of another city in Argentina, and Rio is the most southerly city I know of in Brazil. :o

Do we know she’s hot?

David Vitter kind of counts, and I think Ensign’s situation was similar to Sanford’s.

< Stereotypical Argentinian> ALL Argentine women are hot</SA>

[Equipoise]

Yes, just like ALL Argentine women are legendary singers? (I love her, btw, she’s amazing!)

Ah Mercedes Sosa, “La cintura cosmica del sur” in person :D.

@Kolga

You know, I just can’t sympathize. He ran for the office of governor, TWICE. He ran for U.S. House of Representatives, THREE TIMES. If you don’t want a public persona, don’t fucking run for public office.

And then don’t spend your political authority attempting to deny other people equal rights because of their sexual behavior, and publicly condemning other people for their sexual behavior, all the while engaging in the same behavior.

But didn’t you hear? Sanford’s Argentinian adventure is all Obama’s fault!

Oh my fucking god. You’ve got to be kidding me.

Anyone that still believes that Rush has any credibility must be a brain-dead moron (not saying that you do, since you just provided the link).

[Really_Not_All_That_Bright]

In a way, I almost have to admire Rush for that. Balls the size of grapefruits in evidence there.

[Defensive_Indifference]

So… he’s saying that Republicans are quitters. They abandon their country/state/whatever when things aren’t going their way. Country First and all that.

The affair started a year ago when Bush was in the White House and Sanford was being considered as a running mate for McCain. Of course, it’s President Obama’s fault! :rolleyes:

Hey, give him some credit as a prognosticator, then!

[Fear_Itself]

Sounds like Rush is admitting Republicans have no sense of accountability, and are eager to blame others for their own character defects.

Candidate Obama, back then. His campaign operatives combed the globe to find the perfect femme fatale to foil any potential challenger, using a proprietary psychological assessment/social networking tool developed by engineers at eHarmony and ACORN. You people don’t even know how deep this thing goes.

I bet Sanford knows how to say this in Spanish…

Take a bow, Archive Guy.

[MovieMogul]

Belated bow. More Republican foot-in-mouth:

I asked Coleman to explain the comments he made earlier this week about needing “a visa and a shot” to travel to southeast Arkansas. “First of all, I love the people of southeast Arkansas,” Coleman explained. “I was using that analogy to illustrate how diverse our cultures are in the state…

“The phrase I used ’shots and a visa’ meant nothing more than I’m leaving the country. I’m going to another country.” Coleman said his first response when he saw the reports was “incredulity,” then he was “heartbroken” that this was interrupted as meaning southeast Arkansas is like a third world country. “Let’s call (the comment) stupid,” Coleman said. “It is a thousand more times more likely that I am stupid than I am racist.”

[Bosstone]

I’ll buy that.

[Really_Not_All_That_Bright]

Does southeast Arkansas have a lot of black people or something?
