OK, look, I’ve tried and I’ve tried. I’ve tried until my brain has bled neurons out of my eyes and my entire frontal cortex has collapsed in on itself and sat, huffing, with effort and dismay.
But I do not get it! I do not get the Republican presidential candidate thingy! Americans are, by and large, logical, rational people. Nice, even. Pleasant. And yet just when I think it couldn’t get any worse, it gets worse! Every time!
For the love of a feminist utopia, somebody explain to me how these people, instead of being locked up as a danger to themselves and an entire frickin’ nation, are actually being considered potential candidates for president!! Did you hear me??!? PRESIDENT!
Has America somehow missed this? Am I the sole harbinger of the doom news? Has every American misheard ‘president’ for ‘bigot-in-chief’?
It seems soooo unlikely. And yet no more unlikely that what is actually going on.
This, this unholy piece of dirtbag idiocy, is merely the latest example of it getting worse, every time. Every time these people open their you-kiss-your-mother-with-that mouths:
Rick Santorum: Pregnancy as a result of rape is “a gift” and victims “should make the best out of a bad situation” (via Jessica Valenti, from Think Progress).
If these are god’s chosen ones, god is an idiot.
OK, I left this post in draft for a week. AND IT JUST GOT WORSE! Now Santorum is in the lead!!! He’s gonna take Michigan!
Are you frickin’ kidding me?? This is a Republican joke, right? And for once, I’m happy to say I have no sense of humour.
Please, somebody, tell me it was all a dream and Bobby just emerged from the shower.
