Then I'll lock starving Palin in a room with Limbaugh, put a spoon next to limbaugh's exposed living brain, and see what Palin would do.
Really?
I hate Palin's political ideals as much as anyone who doesn't agree with anything she says and Limbaugh makes me want to vomit every time he opens his filthy whore mouth... but really?
I can think of a few people on the supreme court who deserve this fate more than Palin or Limbaugh if only because they actually did something destructive to American Democracy.
Things like Citizen's United and this stupid decision.
Though I would argue that they should be tried for treason rather than setting up the next Saw plot.
Palin and Limbaugh are both clowns and deserve to be dismissed as such but they both have the right to be as big of an ass-clown as they choose to be.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan
