Also in line with not-wanting-to-start-a-new-thread, what’s the current status of that AZ Chucklehead’s super-birther-posse? Did they turn in their final reports or are they still saying they’ve got somethign to release some day?
Most recent story googling “arpaio obama” turns up is from August.
I’ve never been paid that much for an article. I’d do it for half. Who do I send my Paypal account?
BTW, I am food writer, so the report may be peppered with nonsense.
You didn’t really think you’d get away with that stinker, did you?

When I clicked I assumed it would be some Fox-bot, or an ‘Audit-the-FRB’ Paulist or some other sort of Brickhead. Nope, it’s a Colorado State Senator vying to become a U.S. Senator. In his defense, his tripe is two way: sincere for his target voters, but “just a joke” when questioned about it by sentient beings:
If I were Udall, I’d get on every ad buy I can find and say something like “there you have it, Republican voters of Colorado: Mr. Hill said it was a joke. He doesn’t really think Obama was born in Kenya, and thinks that it’s foolish to believe otherwise. I applaud Mr. Hill’s finally coming out and saying what we all know: President Obama was born in the United States.”
I’m genuinely curious to see how Hill would react.

But will it also be larded with facts?

As long as it is not cheesy.
Actually, it will probably be larded with innuendo.
Or at least supposition.

As long as it skewers its detractors…
Sheesh, Kobal , that was awful.

Well, you have to take this comment with a grain of salt.

Drunken Republican Rep. Don Dwyer (R-MD) Says It Was Gay Marriage That Made Him Operate Vehicles Under The Influence
Dwyer was interviewed by the Capital Gazette, in which he attributed his behavior on the boat to his own marriage falling apart, and to his feeling “betrayed” by fellow lawmakers who backed marriage equality legislation in Maryland. Dwyer said to the Gazette:
“I felt a tremendous amount of pressure in my family. You take those personal issues [and] add betrayal on the professional side, and it really gets to be overwhelming.”
Texas anti-LGBT crusader won local election by pretending to be black
Wilson, a conservative white Republican with tea party leanings, realized that he had little to no chance of beating 24-year incumbent Austin in his heavily African-American district, so Wilson decided not to run as a white man. The virulently anti-LGBT activist previously ran and lost as a fringe candidate for mayor on a platform opposing marriage equality or any form of legal recognition for same sex relationships.
Wilson, who KHOU described as “a gleeful political troublemaker,” sent out the fliers along with direct mailings that said, “Endorsed by Ron Wilson,” a retired African-American state legislator. The fine print on the mailings explained that the Ron Wilson who endorsed Dave Wilson was actually his cousin who lives in Iowa.
Wilson beat Austin by a razor-thin margin of 27 votes. He remains untroubled by his methods, saying that all politicians lie.
“Every time a politician talks, he’s out there deceiving voters,” he told KHOU.

Yeah, I got no beef with y’all, even if the pun was a bit ham-fisted.

As long as you don’t chicken out, that would look fishy.

Not my cup of tea. I say it like it is, go straight to the substantive marrow of the argument and never sugar-coat it. If people agree with me that’s the cherry on top, but if they don’t, it’s no skin off my bones.
Get the puns out of your system today because punning should never be done on Sundae.

Good gravy!
Oh, thank you. It’s just brown and water…
