If there’s one thing this week has reminded us of, it’s that politics is one Big Ugly Circus: that denouncing masturbation gets you votes, but that fighting crime and fixing schools does not.
I haven’t done this for awhile, but this week it seemed as if stupid has once again taken center stage. With Christine O’Donnell’s triumph of the Politics of Pretty (vacant), there’s more than enough stupid for everyone. She’s the entire package- a Wahabbist Christian, possessed of a tenuous grip on facts and reality, a desire to keep the entire country from having sex, and the willingness to lie, prevaricate, and twist the truth into something unrecognizable. I’m not going to spend the next 6+ weeks obsessing over Sister Mary Sunshine, but it’s going to take me awhile to process and understand just how unbelievably stupid Delaware Republicans are.
“We the People”?? Puhleeze…. Propaganda is a wondrous thing, ain’t it??
So, without further ado….

Christine O’Donnell Has a Bachelor’s Degree In Suntan Lotion Marketing. No doubt from Glenn Beck University.

Christine O’Donnell criticized by former aides. What, for being self-absorbed, judgmental, intolerant, evil, corrupt, and venal? Have I left anything out? Besides, this is SO last Tuesday night….
A Children’s Treasury Of Christine O’Donnell’s Website Content. And you think it’s easy being an intolerant, uber-Jesus-y, judgmental, hyper-religious zealot??
