(Thanks to David Flanders for the “Wingnut” graphic!)
Each attendee had to wear a special lanyard, and organizers were fortunate to find a big box of free lanyards hidden in the convention center. The lanyards, however, “were leftovers from a giant porn convention held earlier in the year,” according to TMZ. “Each lanyard displayed a logo from one of the porn sponsors — ElegantAngel.com. If it’s not clear yet, ElegantAngel has a new, hot release — Big Black Wet Asses 8.”…. Yeah, not nearly gay enough for any of the Clark County Republicans to understand.
Oh, the humanity! Oh the irony! Oh the…porn convention?? This week’s Clueless Wingnut Awards goes to the Clark County (NV) Republican Party, who clearly need to be spending more time trolling da Interweb. The irony of this story- holier-than-thou wearing ID lanyards bearing the URL of a porn site- is indescribably delicious. Apparently no one at the convention- except the press- recognized the URL…which, I suppose, only demonstrates that reporters really ARE in thrall to Satan.
I don’t begrudge Republicans their right to hold such beliefs as they see fit, but I should at least express my gratitude to them for being such a comedy gold mine. Yes, the party that Larry Craig and so many like him really is the party that keeps late-night talk show hosts from running out of material. For that, we should all be grateful.
Rumor has it that after the convention wrapped up it’s business, the attendees went on a tour of the men’s rooms at the Las Vegas airport….
