It’s prolly not the single stupidest Republican idea of the day, but it’s definitely a stupid Republican idea: a poster on a message board thought it would be a good idea to try and blame the Democratic-controlled Senate for the government shutdown, even tho the evidence suggests it’s clearly not their fault. Check out these idiotic posts:
Christian TV Host Rick Joyner: We must save democracy by destroying it.
But that’s not treason, oh no. That’s patriotism! For God!
It’s a fine line between treason and patriotism and stupid.
(Wait … that’s two lines … never mind.)
No, you’re OK, teh stoopid is all-encompassing.
Looks like someone’s jealous of all the attention Adaher’s been getting as a world class weathervane of wrongness…
Encountered a new one on facebook today. Well, old, but new to me. Apparently Obamacare allows forced home inspections - so says a man on my facebook page. When I pointed out to him that Snopes called bullshit, he responded in typical conservative fashion: Snopes is shilling. Then he linked the bill.
This is kind of like saying, “I’ve got an ace in my hand”, then when people call you on your bullshit, saying, “Yeah I do, here, let me show you” and revealing a hand containing a Uno Draw 2 and a “Kamaal, Pit Fighter”.
That’s not even a bill. It’s just a federal grant application.
For Fuck’s Sake, Joyner! This is America; we don’t have lords!
We’re an autonomous collective!

Well, OK, let’s have a military takeover . . . but the U.S. Army can’t be involved! Heavenly Hosts only!
Yesterday, overwhelming public interest in signing up for Obamacare resulted in some websites glitching or temporarily shutting down.

I don’t know that they’d succeed in a coup. I mean, a flight a F-18s vs. some git with a flaming sword ?
Kobal, you should know that the aforementioned ‘git with a flaming sword’ isn’t wielding just any old flaming sword. That is a +5 Flaming Sword of Selfrighteousness. And I am pretty sure that an Archangel has a +1 or better to hit defense modification.

These are the kind of days that only political commentary writers can love.
And, of course, the power-drunk politicos that caused this insane train wreck.

No, he doesn’t. He can’t possibly be that stupid.
Cite?

It can be a vorpal humanbane doomblade +10 for all I care, it’s still not outreaching a 20mm cannon. If it does, the DM is cheating more blatantly than he ought to.
What’s the angel’s Armor Class?

And you are blithering in the wrong thread. As I just posted over here Harry Reid has been proposing a conference to work out differences on the budget for months.
The Republicans have consistently refused.
Dipshit.
Ya, but but but… Clearly Reid is not wanting to negotiate, since he did not agree in advance to give the Tea-Party wing of the Republicans everything they wanted.
Why did he not agree to that?
ETA:
Me: Give me your wallet or I will shoot this kid
You: No
Me: Why do you refuse to negotiate? It’s your fault if the kid gets hurt.

Sometimes lovers play coy.

Well, that’s why you trot out the cannon only after the GM declares for the record that no weapon forged can harm the blade wielder.
And now, a word from Her Majesty, the High Queen of Entitlement:
If Mitt Romney had been elected, the government would be up and running – and there’d be no Obamacare, Ann Romney said Wednesday.
“We would not be in a shutdown,” Romney said on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends.”
