Stupid Republican idea of the day

Been awhile since I checked in on this thread, mostly due to my growing numbness to The Stupid.

But I couldn’t let this quote from Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-CA, on the dilemmas faced by undocumented workers seeing organ transplants, slip by:

Presumably, he’d also have no objection if we ground them up and used them to make Soylent Green.

I love Mexican food.

:eek: d&r :eek:

4000 posts and still going strong!

And here goes Anita Perry on her and her hubby’s small town values (what is that even supposed to mean?):

I’m not about to watch it, but I think it’s a dig at some other candidate who cheated on his first two wives, and who’s current wife feeds on dead babies.

OK, I’m not sure if that last part’s entirely true.

You think they might still be alive?!

It means “kill the fags.” That’s what all of these horseshit phrases from Republicans mean, especially when the word “values” is involved. That’s the only value they have.

“It takes a village.”

“to lynch the impure.”

That’s it. No more verde sauce for me.

Well-parsed, jsgoddess. Still, I’m going to laugh the first time I see Romney’s (or any of that crowd’s) TV ad, where they isolate the footage of Newt saying “you should be for Obama.”
:smiley:

And EMP.

Perhaps, but which one is more readily measured?

A (R) congresscritter is back to critiqing Michelle’s backside:

He is, BTW, an apparently plus-sized gentleman his own self from some of the photos I’ve seen.

To raise the village idiot.

I thought you meant Michele Bachmann!

How did we all miss the stupid Republican House idea of failing to extend the payroll tax cut? This is SO stupid that Senate Republicans are calling them on it. Breathtaking in its stupidity!

Even the guy who led the [del]charade[/del]parade knows what he did is stupid.

And who was the voice of reason, the person who summed it up in a can’t-be-denied kinda way?

Fair enough, but this thread is more modestly defined, the implication being that it is about mundane stupidity, the sort of everyday, garden variety dumfuckitude. Cataclysmic, thunderous stupid is too grand for such confined circumstances, there isn’t enough room in a mere day to contain that much stupid, without imperiling the very fabric of space and dumb.

I prefer [URL=“http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2011/12/boehners_words_for_the_ages.php?ref=fpblg”]this bit](http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_PAYROLL_TAX?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2011-12-22-19-37-18) of probably inadvertent honesty from Boehner:

Shows you where doing what’s right for the American people falls on the GOP’s priority list.
