54% of Republicans believe that, deep down, Obama is Muslim.
This one needs more love. I mean, what *is *the big deal if I just want to kill my child ? Seriously, guys, you’re totally overreacting. I would just prefer my kid dead. I’d be more comfortable that way, and I should have that choice.
NO ABORTIONS THOUGH !
Never crossed my mind. Not even once. Nope. You can’t prove it did. So it didn’t. Period.
Better still, her idiotic proposal doesn’t even cover UN activity. From the (very brief) text:
The UN was not formed under the laws of another country, and so is not an entity covered by this language. It’s both clear and unsurprising that she doesn’t even know what the UN is.
Is Sam Stone, the bloated-amygdala hyperlibertarian, considered a Republican? He certainly qualifies as stupid.
:rolleyes:
I’m glad Little Nemo debunked Stone’s hogwash.
The divide is no longer between left and right, but between rational reality-based thinking and the GOP. Increasingly, it just seems best to ignore anything said by one of their ilk unless their claim is backed by a cite to a rational thinker or objective news source.
No – he qualifies as stupid, but, as a Canuckistani, he does not qualify as American. Conservative Party, probably.
I keep getting Sam Stone and The Second Stone confused. One of them is a reasonable person, the other is a racist bag of rocks with a toupee
Well, we should be in for a real bumper crop of Republican stupidity over the next few days. CPAC was opened this morning by none other than Ben Carson.
Let the stoopid begin!
Congressman Barry Loudermilk claimsthat there was consideration of having Eric Holder arrested for contempt of Congress when he showed up at the House chamber for the State of the Union, but he claims that he was told “some other things were going on” in the case of Holder. He also says that he would love to investigate the Muslim Brotherhood’s infiltration of the government, but the Obama administration is stonewalling the investigation.
Every time I read his name I get a mental flash of Henry Winkler as Barry Zuckerkorn on Arrested Development…
You can’t run as a Republican in Laurens County, SC if you have had premarital sex, or if you look at porn, or if you support gay marriage OR gay civil unions. And a bunch of other stuff.
Scott Walker compares union protesters to ISIS in his comments on how he would deal with ISIS if he were commander-in-chief: "If I can take on a hundred thousand protesters, I can do the same across the world.”
Shit. I’m probably tangentially related to 90% of those ignorant fuckers. So glad my direct antecedents had the notion to move elsewhere.
Marsha Blackburn (TN) and Tillis (NC) are already jumping on the FCC because it is overriding state laws that prevent municipal internet service providers from expanding outside their areas. Because, you know, the major providers who refuse to serve those outlying areas should not be faced with competition for service they do not want to provide, and the state should have the final say over its counties and cities, not the Feds.
That’s from 2012. Still incredibly stupid, just old stupid.
A twofer:
Mentally challengedSenator Jim Inhofe brings snowball to Congressional floor to prove climate change is a hoax. As much as I would like to be mad, I can’t, because you don’t hold the mentally challenged to the same standards as normal people.
Tennessee House majority leader Sheila Butt states that there should be an NAAWP. When called out on it, she said the “W” stood for “Western” people, not white people, honest! There’s a joke about being butthurt in there, but being part of the oppressed minority western people already, I’m guessing Sheila Butt has suffered enough mocking
I do wonder, how has it worked out for them since?
Not really a SRIOTD, but I’m not sure where else to put it.
Missouri State Auditor Tom Schweich, who had recently announced his candidacy for governor, committed suicide this morning in his home near St. Louis. Schweich, a Republican, had butted heads with party leaders and was considered a long shot to get the nomination.
Probably no one knows why Schweich took his own life. However, a member of the Post-Dispatch editorial board writes about his friendship with Schweich, saying that Schweich had recently confided in him that Missouri Republican Party leaders were engaged in a whisper campaign designed to discredit Schweich with donors by convincing them that Schweich was Jewish. He was actually Episcopalian with Jewish ancestry.
Maybe Schweich was paranoid, deluded, and mentally ill. Or maybe he was right, and the Republican machine was trying to destroy him personally by calling his faith and ethnicity into question. It would not be the first time for that, although perhaps the first time the tactic succeeded so thoroughly.
