Damned Republicunts

[RobbyPants]

Although it comes as no surprise, Senate Republicans have just confirmed that they all believe that money equals speech & corporations should be allowed to spend as much as they desire, untraceably, on election campaigns. This is despite the fact that 80% of US citizens oppose the Citizen's United ruling that has allowed unlimited dark money to be funneled into mostly Republican campaigns.

I'm sure they realize they're staring down their own demographic extinction. They can't win fair elections without changing their stance and broadening their base. So, why keep the elections fair when they can have their cake and eat it, too? This isn't the first time they've flat-out cheated at elections.

This was a party line vote. Every single ® either voted against the amendment or abstained. Here's hoping they get punished at the voting booth this November.

One can hope, but it's not likely based on historic incumbent reelection rates consistently being over 80% (the House is almost always over 90%). This means that unless the incumbent isn't renominated in the primary process we can expect more of the same. This year 273 of the 275 incumbents up for reelection were renominated; therefore, we're fucked.

Damn you statistics!

This is what the Republicunts want to hear.

Episode #80 - Arizona's old standby Russel Pearce

AZ GOP vice-chair calls for sterilizing poor women: If you want a baby, get a job

The recalled Arizona senate president who proposed the state’s controversial anti-immigration law said he could fix public assistance programs by forcibly sterilizing women who receive aid and by requiring drug tests for all recipients.

Edit: I forgot the link. How careless of me.

And when they get a job, they'll be un-sterilized?

Don't ask Mr. SB1070 complicated questions. Neither he nor his constituents enjoy thinking.

So, he basically wants to follow the lead of our eugenics program from 80 years ago? Awesome. Everyone loved that.

Wow, the Nazi's called, they said they want their playbook back AZ.

Episode #81

Mike Huckleberry....er Huckabee... wants...well, read it for yourself what this dumb douchebag wants.

“I would urge pastors to get in the pulpit and call people to Biblical truth as it relates to the issue of life and marriage, and even the issue of stewardship, and never be apologetic and say, ‘Vote the Bible in your own heart.’” Huckabee said in audio posted by Right Wing Watch on Friday. “I hear people say sometimes, ‘Vote your pocketbook.’ Well, if you vote the scripture you’ll ultimately benefit your pocketbook, because everything about the economy that’s wrong would be fixed if people had a Biblical understanding of the economy and a Biblical understanding of personal stewardship and responsibility.”

Fuck off you inbred southern piece of shit.

[Minimalist]
