Stupid Republican idea of the day

Anise is why I don’t take you guys seriously.

Hey guys, lets be on subject, you are looking as silly as the King, Elvis Parsley when he visited Rue-Chive Nixon.

I know that this is not true; I saw the video. It was uploaded by some YouTuber.

Willie Horton style ads aren’t necessarily stupid – sleazy, yes, but not necessarily stupid…

National Republicans are trying to save Nebraska Rep. Lee Terry with a television ad members of both parties are comparing to one of the most infamous spots in political history.
The National Republican Campaign Committee’s ad, titled “Nikko,” hits Democratic nominee Brad Ashford, a state senator, for supporting the state’s “good-time” law, which eliminates one day from a prison sentence for every day a convict spends behind bars without incident. The ad is named after Nikko Jenkins, who was released from prison early under the law and went on to murder four people in the span of 11 days one month after his release…

…at least, they aren’t stupid unless they blow up in your face by attracting attention to an embarrassing moment:

Vulnerable Rep. Lee Terry received an emphatic endorsement Wednesday, but the Nebraska Republican is not likely to tout this show of support on the campaign trail any time soon.

KMTV in Omaha, Neb., reported that at a hearing to examine his competency, convicted murderer Nikko Jenkins shouted, “Vote Lee Terry guys, greatest Republican ever.”…

Talk radio host Dennis Prager: Rape culture is “a gargantuan lie to get votes” promoted by “the feminist left.” And, sexual assault is now defined broadly enough to include “unwanted kisses.”

[Kobal2]

… Um, yes ? How are unwanted kisses OK, or anything besides sexual assault ? Am I supposed to be all up in arms about them feminazis stomping all over my right to glomp whomever I want ?

Wait, am I a basement troll in this hypothetical ? Because if so, I resemble that.

NRA funded ad for conservative Republican Congressman appears on Grindr

[elucidator]

Ever have that sensation of click dread? Like you don’t know what something is, but also you kinda cringe thinking you’re soon gonna wish you still didn’t? And you almost always click anyway?

[Rick_Kitchen]

Oh, yeah, now that I see it, I could understand where that dread might come from. But you could hover over the link and see what it’s linking to.

[elucidator]

Picturing a stalwart local Republican guy hearing the news and trying to pretend he didn’t already know…

“NRA ad? On, what’s it called, Grendel? Glenda? Some sort of gay website, you say? No, never heard of it…”

Well, they certainly reach the Wide-Stance Republicans.

Veteran lobbyist counsels gathering of oil & gas execs to dig up dirt on environmentalists and liberal celebs and “win ugly.”

The blunt advice from the consultant, Richard Berman, the founder and chief executive of the Washington-based Berman & Company consulting firm, came as Mr. Berman solicited up to $3 million from oil and gas industry executives to finance an advertising and public relations campaign called Big Green Radicals.

The company executives, Mr. Berman said in his speech, must be willing to exploit emotions like fear, greed and anger and turn them against the environmental groups. And major corporations secretly financing such a campaign should not worry about offending the general public because “you can either win ugly or lose pretty,” he said.

“Think of this as an endless war,” Mr. Berman told the crowd at the June event in Colorado Springs, sponsored by the Western Energy Alliance, a group whose members include Devon Energy, Halliburton and Anadarko Petroleum, which specialize in extracting oil and gas through hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking. “And you have to budget for it.”

The stupid part? Opening his mouth. One of the execs secretly taped Berman’s remarks and, finding them offensive, turned them over to the NYT.

Well, he left open the question whether it was purposeful or incompetent, but I think it clearly has to be both. If the US president want to spread Ebola in the US, to cause death an panic and bring about Martial law, and the best he can manage in the last month is one Liberian immigrant, 2 attending nurses and one returning doctor with 3/4 of them surviving. That is some pretty serious incompetence.

C’mon, give Obama a break! He’s new at spreading plagues! He’ll get the hang of it eventually!
