OMG GOP WTF?!
Credo Mobile has a weekly quiz called OMG GOP WTF?! It donates $0.10 per correct answer to a progressive organization (this week The Nation). I’m sure you’ll not be surprised that I earned a 5/5. I’m not sure how they choose their subjects because the GOP has so many moments. Perhaps these will help with next week’s quiz.
Rush Limbaugh, upset with a CNN report about him, had advice for the CNN reporter:
Limbaugh called Costello his “stalker” before suggesting she “go sit on a fire hydrant and improve your day.”
Don’t even ask me what that means but it makes me think Eeeeewwwww.
Times reporter and blogger Andy Revkin, on the environment beat, has pointed out that a growing population is one source of rising greenhouse gas emissions. Rush Limbaugh’s response:
Mr. Revkin, why don’t you just go kill yourself and help the planet by dying?
Do you get the feeling that Limbaugh really doesn’t like reporters?
POLITICO: What in the world does the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus do?
HARPER: We hunt liberal, tree-hugging Democrats, although it does seem like a waste of good ammunition.
Ho hum, another day another Republican wishing for death for their political opponents.
The inexplicable commentator on MSNBC, Pat Buchanan:
Pat Buchanan, in his latest column, in reference to white Americans:
America was once their country. They sense they are losing it. And they are right.
Our final WTF moment comes from Senator David Vitter of Louisiana. It’s not what Vitter has said, but what he has not said. He’s been conspicuously silent on the subject of Judge Bardwell, the judge who refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple:
We’ve heard from the governor and senior senator in Louisiana and from the White House responding to the justice of the peace who refuses to marry biracial couples, but the state’s junior senator, David Vitter, has stayed conspicuously silent.
Gov. Bobby Jindal (R) wants Keith Bardwell, justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish, fired for his actions. The same is true for Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-LA).

Therein lies their anger. The codeword for this anger is socialism, a word that allows them to avoid being honest about the real roots of their anger – racism. It’s no longer just black and white. The hispanic and Asian populations and interracial marriages have spread alarm in their ranks. Throw in religious competition and you have big time fright.
I was 1/5. but I’ve never listened Beck, Boehner and such.

5/5. Should that worry me?
Note to self: Step away from the computer.
Glad to see the NATION receive the $. 3/5. Should have known Pat Buchanan answer!
How odd that people who think this:
“Peace is the ability to defend yourself and destroy evil enemies.”
…have TV shows.
