shuffleboard tournaments
Junior League meetings
cross-burnings
sermons about original sin
furtively masturbating to photos of Sarah Palin...

human waste, more wrong on every issue related to the 99% than these misanthropes. I remember a while back, Chris Matthew's asking a right-wing guest to name one good thing that the Republicans have done for this country in the past 20 years.......the man couldn't come up with one thing....silence and stuttering...... Always right? More fun? More delusional is "more" like it.

Yeah McConnell.... The Democrats are not "simply more fun" while dealing with the VERY SERIOUS issues this country is facing. They have a tendency to take matters of the nation pretty seriously. As you and your cohorts block and obstruct... I think more people are understanding the constipation that your party presents.

Although I have a few Republican friends that can be a hoot, none call themselves "conservative". Mitch would never be invited to any of my parties.

I've really not met a republican/conservative yet with any inkling of a sense of humor....of any kind.

Want to destroy a party? Invite a right winger....
