Republicans, the next Whigs!
Much as I hate to throw cold water on such a tempting prospect, I remember both Barry Goldwater and Richard Nixon. In each case the “pundints” declared the GOP to be RIP, and in each case it bounced back in a few years.
Adding in the fact that each incarnation was more whackadoodle than its predecessor, I’m not taking a great deal of comfort in the present situation.
It saddens me that the Republican party is losing so many of their herd. I watch discovery channel enough to know that culling the weak from the herd makes the herd stronger.
How does one draw the line between culling and genocide?
Smaller. It makes the herd smaller.
If America does it, it’s culling. If anyone else does it, it’s genocide.
It’s great to be an American!!!
Thanks! Easy to remember too.
Another Facebook outing:
Why do these guys think that deleting a file, an email or facebook post, means it can’t be recovered? Everytime they do something like this, it puts them that further into the woods. Geez guys, at least pretend you’re not racist.
Nitpick, I wasnt her it was one of her “friends” in facebook.
But she did enthusiastically endorse it.
But she did post “you tell 'em” apparently in response.
I can’t get to Facebook from work. Is Eric Pike® serious, or is he pulling a Steven Colbert? Just before the “coons” comment, he posted “wal mart is a klan anyway…a cult and its sad…i hate wal mat”. Not that a person can’t write that kind of thing unironically, but I wonder if he goes around trying to get people to take his bait like Shay evidently did. Something about it just seems like a kind of reverse trolling, where he’s trying to get people to react positively to ridiculous crap.
His page is private anyway, I suspect.
Oh, why just have one stupid idea when you can have two?

Arizona is 6,000 years old, and we havn’t blown up the world yet, so there’s nothing to worry about in regards to uranium mining next to rivers!
That’s bad, but just normal stupidity.

How about trying to appoint someone to the state school board of Texas who not only has written a book that there should be a religious test to run for office, but homeschooled her kids, and calls public schools tools of perversion and unconstitutional.
Sometimes, very rarely in a man’s life, can he say he saw or heard perfection. And here it is, right before your eyes by the deep magic of the Internet. You can not take or add a thing. This cathedral of ineptitude is pristine, perfect. It’s the Sistine Chapel of fuckwit.
We can all die happy men now - we’ve found the one, perfect cherry blossom we spent our lives searching for.
Better than the Honduran coup government foreign minister calling Obama a “negrito”? (literally: “little black man”, can be interpreted as “little nigger”).
Today’s entry, courtesy of Arizona State Senator Sylvia Allen (R - Dimwit):
Yep. Drill for uranium because the Earth has already survived for 6,000 years without environmental laws and its not going anywhere.
On the other hand, Sen. Jim Dewitt (R-Moron) seems to equate the swearing in of Al Franken as US senator with the Honduran military oup:

So many stupid Republican ideas, so few days…
To be fair, Rick Perry hasn’t appointed her yet. I noticed that the dimbulb’s name is Cynthia Dunbar. The dimbulb in Missouri who hates the thought of feeding children is Cynthia Davis. Is it the combination of first name Cynthia and last name beginning with a D that causes such brain damage?
I agree, but we have to keep looking.
With statistics like these:
we’ve obviously got plenty of Stupid coming our way.
Curiously, 71% of Republicans also believe in Santa Claus.
27% think Christmas gifts are a government handout which taxpayers ought to be outraged over.
This is completely and utterly not correct. In Spanish, negrita/o is an endearment. If it’s interpreted as ‘little nigger’ than it’s the interpreter who is at fault.
I suppose i dont speak spanish then.
Una lastima, la verdad, me pregunto que lenguaje he estado hablando por los ultimos 29 años…
“negrito” can be interpreted as a term of endearment when one is speaking to a friend, or family member, it is most emphatically NOT used to refer to someone outside those circles, and even more so when referring to someone who is black.
