That depends. What race are the parents?
Really, though, we tried that already and it didn’t end well, especially since the partial people could not vote. Much like a fetus. Unless it will vote Republican. Then they will lower the voting age to conception.
News flash: A Republican has a smart idea – reform copyright law to make it benefit all of society instead of just greedy corporations – but is forced by the Republican establishment to retract it within 24 hours.
“Unskewed Polls” guy Dean Chambers has doubled down on teh stoopid :
Dean Chambers, the man behind the “Unskewed Polls” website, has a launched a new website declaring the election was stolen by Democrats.
The website, www.BarackOFraudo.com , identifies four “black states” Chambers claims were stolen by President Obama through massive voter fraud and suppression operations. According to the website, Democratic ballot stuffing was the reason Obama carried the critical swing states of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Florida.
The website provides no evidence for the allegations, other than to say that “Democrats are known for years for stuffing the ballot boxes,” and says that in this case, circumstantial evidence is sufficient.
(Emphasis added in case anyone missed the oh-so-subtle dogwhistle.)

This is a week old , but I didn’t see it mentioned and it gave me the giggles:
Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) may not yet be ready to accept his apparent reelection defeat in Florida last week, but his Republican colleagues in Georgia are already seeking to provide a backup plan for the conservative darling’s political future.
In an interview with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution this week, Sue Everhart, chairwoman of the Georgia GOP, praised Atlanta native West as “one of the finest congressmen this country’s ever had.” She then extended an invite for him to pursue a return to congress in Georgia in the future.
You mean we will have Allen West to kick around some more? Joy.

A new stupid idea from WorldNetDaily, that bastion of objective reporting: “How Obama can be stopped in Electoral College” .
We have one last, final chance to save America. We have one last, final chance to stop Barack Obama. One final chance.
…
According to the 12th Amendment, for the Electoral College to be able to select the president, it must have a quorum of two-thirds of the states voting. If enough states refuse to participate, the Electoral College will not have a quorum. If the Electoral College does not have a quorum or otherwise cannot vote or decide, then the responsibility for selecting the president and vice president devolves to the Congress.
Except, as it turns out, they don’t understand the 12th Amendment .

How would that work exactly? I mean, what’s to stop someone from claiming a tax credit every single year?
“Oh, proof of our pregnancy? Sorry, we don’t have health insurance. We never went to the doctor.”
“Proof of our miscarriage? That’s a private matter. I don’t wish to discuss that.”
Nah, if the fetus is a person when there is a miscarriage a death certificate will be required, and a $500 casket for a dozen cells or so. And a pathology report. Coroners, start buying really tiny scalpels.

:smack: :rolleyes:
Something about that last one has a hint of post-modernist irony. “Campus of the electoral college” seems a mite complex for a shit-for-brains WorldNutter.

As long as we’re kicking him around a different state.
Some of us are still trying to scrape the “duhh! ” off the end of “Flori- ”. It’s been an uphill battle.
Born and raised in Texas, I can relate. We’re getting there. Slow, but slow.

It’s a foregone conclusion. By executing the mentally disabled, Texas is only accelerating the marginalizing of the GOP.
Dear God, they are going to nuke the Aggies?
I searched for a mention of this in the Pit and did not see it. Story is from March. Still stupid is strong with this man and he should get his due credit.
Sen. Inhofe: The Bible Proves Global Warming Is A “Hoax”
Senator James Inhofe, a Republican from Oklahoma, has been calling global warming a “hoax” for years – that’s nothing new. However, he’s just written a book called The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future, and interviews with him regarding the book have been…interesting.
In an interview with Vic Eliason of Voice of Christian Youth America on Wednesday, for instance, he explained that his theory is “biblically inspired.” He claims that the idea that man-made pollution could affect the climate is “arrogance,” because, as we all know, only God can affect the climate:
Prayer as a method of drought relief works about as well as prayer as a method of birth control.
Of course prayer doesn’t work as birth control. God wants you to have that rape-baby.
Actually, Lord, I was thinking that a youngish virgin female is quite miracle enough. No need to overdo this, boil the baby in the bathwater, so to speak…
