Or we could combine the two and just call it “Republican Idea of the Day.” With maybe another thread for “Holy Shit the Republicans Had an Idea that was Neither Evil Nor Stupid, What Were the Chances?” But that thread probably wouldn’t get much use.
This from a party that made some sort of huge deal splitting hairs between Obama characterizing the Benghazi attack as an “act of terror” rather than “terrorism” or whatever the fuck the Benghazi! conspiracy was that week. I seem to recall one of their weaker points being when they counted the number of seconds in his speech before he used thee word “terror” or some such.
Pat Robertson has a special necklace that “repels homosexuals and other queers, and keeps [him] free of their abhorrent lifestyles and gay diseases.”
It keeps all sexual degenerates at least 20 feet away from him, and after 45 years of enjoying its protection, he’s willing to share the protection with you for only ten easy payments of $59.99.
How generous. Luckily, there doesn’t seem to be more, and there’s no mention of an offer to send two for the price of one plus the additional low shipping and handling fee so long as you call in the next 20 minutes.
[shakes head]That boy ain’t right. Bless his heart. What there is of it.[/sh]
And rereading that article and a few it linked to, it is MORE THAN OBVIOUS THAT THIS IS A HOAX SITE LIKE THE ONION.
But since I wasn’t paying attention to that earlier, I’m going to leave this here as a reminder that I NEED TO PAY BETTER ATTENTION, YOU IDIOT, and not embarrass myself like this again.
Sheesh.
It’s okay, Morgyn, it’s usually hard to tell what’s a satire site and what’ a real Republican idea.
Poe’s Law in action. I know. <sigh> But I’m *supposed *to know better, and usually I check for other sources before posting something like this.
Wonder if it was a pearl necklace.
Don’t waste your money; it’s just a string of garlic bulbs. (Works, though. Even to the most insatiable sexual degenerate, a guy wearing a string of garlic bulbs does not look worth approaching.)
Republicans are planning to campaign against Democrats on the grounds that Obama released Bowe Bergdahl without approval of Congress. They’re even referring to it as Obama’s “Willie Horton moment.” I’m sure that’s a big deal to all of us voters who are just happy to see that an American soldier got released after having been held hostage for five years.
Hot and covered in “sauce?”
This could be the big break the Romney campaign has been waiting for!
Do these fucks even realize a large part of their base is ex military?
Yeah, go ahead and do that guys, that will go over just about as well as “legitimate rape”.
This happened back at the end of March, but I just heard about it. It seems that on the same day that Scott Walker of WI signed a bill limiting early voting hours (nothing after 7 p.m. on weekdays, and nothing on weekends), he *also *signed a bill allowing lobbyists to start making campaign contributions seven weeks earlier.
I suspect this comes under the heading of “Evil Republican Idea”, not “Stupid”, since it’s pretty obvious that Walker has been doing everything he can to disenfranchise voters and sell elections for a long time now.
I just came in to say: wow, 300 pages of stupid Republican ideas.
We’re lazy.
Guilty as charged, I suppose. OTOH, there ARE only so many hours in five-and-a-half years; we need a LITTLE down time.
This little snippet is not quite a stupid Republican idea, per se, but it is darn funny to see the clouds of thick smoke (or whatever that it) issuing from the ears of the most diligent-and-good-hearted.
"Democrats vote for Sharia Law!
I mean, this is kind if a complicated issue, I admit I do not fully understand the subtleties of it. But, stacking up sandbags to fend of evil islamic culture from our shores? Do these idiots have nothing better to pop their veins over?
Um…
Well, I knew I was abnormal
One day it will be revealed that everything we know as the GOP today was a giant put-on, a distraction, and they have secretly been doing something entirely different. Besides young boys of course.
What proportion of their current active voting base are currently being held as POW’s or the like? I’m not sure enough of “the base” give a shit about this guy to cost the GOP.
The GOP base skews old. Like “Korea and VietNam” old. As I recall, the matter of POWs left behind was kind of a sore spot for these particular generations…
And that turned out to be highly exaggerated.
As was the spitting on returning military. As are so many of their fevered talking points.
