Not even 48-hours after the crime, these assholes are the first I've seen to seriously politicize the Boston bombings. And they're "R's", of course. Despicable pricks.

1. louie gohmert again. SHEESH!!! WHY does ANYONE still pay any attention to this dingdong?

Makes me wonder, seriously, about the mental acuity of the people in that particular district. He's not the first certified idiot, or creep, or asshole, to come out of Texas. I guess he's just one of the most recent.

2. These RW nut jobs sound exactly like foxx entertainment....

Or Mrs. Olsen and her daughter Nellie from "Little House on the Prairie".

3. Let me guess what's next...

Bombings reveal danger of...Gay Marriage
Bombings reveal danger of...Allowing Abortions
Bombings reveal danger of...No Religion in Schools
Bombings reveal danger of...Iran/North Korea
Bombings reveal danger of...taxing the rich

I wonder where it will end.
