Stupid Republican idea of the day

[ElvisL1ves]

One of the rape guysstill doesn’t know when to shut up:

Rep. Todd Akin, R-Mo., whose 2012 Senate campaign was largely annihilated by his theory that women who are victims of “legitimate rape” shouldn’t be exempted from anti-abortion laws because they’re unlikely to become pregnant, weighed in on rape again Wednesday, this time while discussing Hillary Clinton.

Akin, in an interview with the Daily Mail, lambasted the former secretary of state and early 2016 Democratic presidential frontrunner for defending a child rapist in 1975 during her career as an Arkansas lawyer.

“It is incredibly hypocritical that Hillary Clinton would carry on about an imagined ‘Republican war on women,’” the former six-term congressman told MailOnline, “when she once got a child rapist off the hook who she knew to be guilty, and laughed about how she did it when interviewed.”

The electorate has ways of shutting that whole thing down, fortunately.

Obama wants everybody in America to go to a re-education camp. What a snob!

Please! They’re not “re-education camps,” they’re Happy Fun-Time Attitude Adjustment and Lifespan Reduction Centers!

I humbly submit,Ann Coulter.

Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation’s moral decay.

Oh, no! Won’t someone please think of the children!

I promise you: No American whose great-grandfather was born here is watching soccer.

She couldn’t be more wrong. And stupid.

Jonah Goldberg’s cognitive deficits remain untreated.

I supported the war, and I still think the arguments in favor at the time were superior to the arguments against. Alas, the facts on the ground didn’t care about the arguments.

Damn facts. Grrr …

If postwar Iraq grew into a stable, confident nation progressing toward a lawful, decent society,

Any point continuing to read after that? No, but here:

Obama barely tried to negotiate a mutually acceptable status-of-forces agreement with Iraq, which would have kept U.S. troops there.

Those damn facts again … :rolleyes:

Republican district committee chairman warns Hillary Clinton to think twice before campaigning in Arkansas, suggesting she would “probably get shot at the state line.”

He’s fired.

“Moments ago I received the resignation of Johnny Rhoda as 2nd District Republican Chairman,” GOP Chairman Doyle Webb said in a statement, as quoted by the Associated Press. “He was apologetic for the statements he made to media yesterday and although he feels he was taken out of context, he knows that his statements have created an unnecessary distraction from the important issues before the state today.”

Yes, context is everything . . . Of course he meant she’d be so stressed by the experience that she’d need a shot to calm her down . . . or something . . .

John Fucking Boehner has so much gall. He’s getting ready to sue the president of the United States of America (using our taxpayer money, of course!) for doing what all presidents do, and which Bush and Reagan did far, far more of: using Executive Orders.

Boehner Planning House Lawsuit Against Obama Executive Actions

*Speaker John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, told Republicans Tuesday he could have an announcement within days on whether the House will file a lawsuit against President Barack Obama, challenging the executive actions that have become the keystone of the administration.

The lawsuit could set up a significant test of constitutional checks and balances, with the legislative branch suing the executive branch for ignoring its mandates, and the judiciary branch deciding the outcome.*

Boehner To Sue Obama But It’s ‘Not About Impeachment’

*House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) on Wednesday confirmed he’s planning on filing a lawsuit to challenge the Obama administration’s executive actions.

“I am,” he told reporters.*

Executive Orders: Washington - Obama

George Bush 		166
Barack Obama		168
Gerald R. Ford		169
George W. Bush 		291
Jimmy Carter 		320
Richard Nixon 		346
William J. Clinton 	364
Ronald Reagan 		381

@bup

Yeah, good point. I think we’ve all been trolled. This guy has it right.

Nobody’s going to sue anybody, it just made for a headline and to rile up the base.

Nevertheless, the WSJ think’s it’s for real, and heartily approves.

My favorite bit:

(4) The prospect of either personal humiliation or major injury is required to count as a sport.

But, wait, does that mean golf isn’t a sport?

That would be imagined major injury.

Coulter became some kind of Bizarro World vaudeville act some time ago. All she does is sit around trying to think of offensive things to say in order to get people’s attention and outrage. That’s her entire reason for existence at this point.

Just DNFTT.

I dunno, Tiger’s wife got in some pretty good licks on him with that club attack. He hasn’t been right since.

The US appeals court ruling on same-sex marriage made some Repulicans mad.

Utah’s senior senator, Orrin Hatch, a Republican, expressed disappointment in Wednesday’s ruling.

“Although I am not surprised by today’s decision, I disagree with the court’s reasoning and hope the Supreme Court ultimately adheres to the original understanding of the Constitution and allows each state to define marriage for itself,” said Hatch

See, Orrin, about 150 years ago when some of the states treated a portion of their population differently it didn’t work to well for those people. That’s what led to that Equal Protection clause the court mentioned. Did you forget about that war?

Plus, the Constitution was created to be editable and re-interpretable (is that a word?). We shouldn’t be stuck with the origional understanding.

Obama is using the World Cup to distract the American people. And here I thought it was a FIFA plot.

In a just world, Ablow would be committed to a lockdown ward as a danger to himself and others instead of getting star guest billing on Faux Snooze.

Maybe someone should point out the bright side to Senator Hatch: If the slippery-slope people are right, we’re a step closer to legalizing polygamy for him and his fellow Mormons.

If it’s done right. I like it when the cheerleaders are there, and people are throwing beach balls and Frisbees. Tend to hate it when my coach wants to bring in a fresh player, and I get sent to the showers.
