Did Obama Murder Stimulus Critic Mark Sanford? « That’s Right Nate

Ever wonder what fantasies your bitter, single conservative co-workers go home to whack off to? I mean, besides a three-way with horse-faced Coulter and Play-Doh face Malkin.

Here ya go. Apparently some conservathugs were wet dreaming about Obama offing Sanford for not taking stimulus money.

Yeah, don’t thank me all at once for those visuals.

This is the angry GOP these days.

Basically, they don’t get the Prez. Not like I do all the time either, but he’s never going to take you out if you are an opponent of his. Instead, he’ll keep you in the Senate like a funny-looking elderly muppet, like he does with McCain. Or he’ll make you his international Girl Friday, like he did with Clinton. If you are a potential GOP opponent with a brain, he’ll co-opt you into his administration and then ship you off (re: Huntsman).

No, if he REALLY wanted Sanford gone, he’d probably make him some Select Ambassador on Family Values and THEN let the guy reveal his affair while flagellating himself with a thorned whip. On Easter Sunday.

This is just the GOP being itself. Hypocrites.

Political Irony › The Party of Family Values?

From the posting at PI:

“A graph printed in the NY times arranges the states according to their divorce rate, teenage birthrate, and (perhaps most telling of all) their subscriptions to online porn sites. So, which states would you think would lead in these “sin” statistics? Red States, the home of family values, moral rectitude, and social conservatives? Or Blue States, the home of moral turpitude and liberal attitudes toward abortion and gay marriage?”

McCain campaigners allegedly called Palin ‘Little Shop of Horrors’

I first read this column and had a little laugh over the continuing idiocy of the everlasting Sarah Palin parade. And then it occurs to me that maybe this IS the best the Republicans have to offer this nation.

Holy crap!

Then I went ahead and gutted through the actual article. To be honest, I’m probably more frightened now than before. Not only is this person a dolt, but people in the GOP who KNEW she was a dolt just went along with setting her up to be the 45th President when, not if, McCain would have faltered physically.

Let us restate this: they KNEW she wasn’t up to the task, and tried to play it off ANYWAY. For partisan pride and to hell with the United States of America!

Never mind that she might be the best that they’ve got (especially with Ensign and Sanford caught with their pants down and Piyush being Mr. Rogers in brownface), the lack of respect for all Americans by the Republican Party is sick, and borderline treachery.

S.C. Code of Laws Title 16 Chapter 15 Offenses Against Morality And Decency – www.scstatehouse.gov-LPITS

“SECTION 16-15-70. ‘Adultery’ defined.

‘Adultery’ is the living together and carnal intercourse with each other or habitual carnal intercourse with each other without living together of a man and woman when either is lawfully married to some other person.”

Just saying. In South Carolina, adultery is still a crime. Strangely, no one is trying to charge Sanford for cheating on his wife.

Here’s his quasi-sincere apology and explanation:

Plus some unanswered questions.

Basically, this is just another “family values” pushing bigot who got caught cheating on his wife.

I know the media is going to give him all the room in the world, cause “ah shucks, what a nice guy” is apparently the rule of the day. Even to grandstanding thugs.

It’s a damn shame that no one witch hunts these assholes the same way they did Clinton. Where, oh where, are the calls for this guy to resign? He directly broke a state law but is allowed to keep his job?

The BRAD BLOG : Sanford Was Having an Affair

Wow, the frat boys over at FAUXNews have done it again.

Whenever a Republican screws up, particularly in a sexcapade, FAUX labels him as a Democrat. One, it’s the worst insult they think they have. Two, and more importantly, they are so afraid of being affiliated with guys who slum for blowjobs in airport bathrooms or cheat on their wives that they do everything they can to make us forget that some said miscreants were just recently in line to be their candidate for President.

Here are other previous examples of FAUXNews leaving their fellow Republicans out to dry.

Tapes Reveal Nixon’s View of Abortion – NYTimes.com

Wow.

According to this article on new revelations of the Nixon White House tapes, Tricky Dick was for abortions in very limited situations. You know, like “(w)hen you have a black and a white”.

There is also more on his – and Billy Graham’s – anti-Semitic beliefs. And a couple entries that make Reagan look like more of an anti-democracy scumbag than I had earlier given him credit for.

Why do we let these people rule America from time to time? Can’t we eventually learn from our many, many, many mistakes?

Think Progress » Missouri lawmaker on child hunger: ‘Hunger can be a positive motivator.’

And we now have crowned our 21st Century Marie Antionette, State Rep. Cynthia Davis of Missouri. A Republican of course.

In the course of working through budget cuts each state has to do, she wants to kill a program that feeds undernourished kids during the summer.

Her primary problem is feeding kids 16 and older, since, you know, they can go find summer jobs at McDonalds that will also feed them lunch.

First off, I don’t think there are enough McJobs to feed all those kids…in a good economy.

Secondly, Missouri has the 19th highest unemployment rate in the country at 9 percent. Even the McJobs that existed last year aren’t there for summer workers anymore.

Third, and actually this would be first if she wasn’t a “compassionate” conservative, YOU DON’T MAKE JOKES ABOUT WANTING TO STARVE CHILDREN!

What’s it like to always be on the wrong side of the argument?

According to recent polls, 72 percent of Americans would like the government to offer some kind of public option plan for health insurance.

According to the same poll, only 18 percent would even want to see what Rethugs have to think on the issue. So why are they getting all of the press?

Honestly, given how Leslie’s plan has been gutted and how mine has felt a bit of a squeeze of late, I’d like to see the details of said policy as well.

I just think Republicans don’t want to lose the lobbyist dollars they get from the insurance industry. I mean, if they really hated public insurance, they’d be cancelling the plan the government currently spends money on for them. Right?

There sure are a lot of Red Staters there.
