There Is No Low Republicans Will Not Stoop To

There are lines we should not cross in civil discourse but nothing is off limits to a Republican.

Meet Maria Gunnoe. She’s an anti-coal activist from West Virginia whose water supply had been tainted by run-off from nearby coal mining. Or, according to the coal industry and their lackeys, the GOP, her water got polluted by magic and the coal industry can’t be blamed. Ever. Under any circumstances. That’s business as usual but the this part wasn’t.

This is a picture of a five year old bathing in water polluted by the coal industry:

Maria planned on showing this rather disturbing image as part of her presentation to the House Committee on Natural Resources in DC. This how the GOP reacted:

"Yesterday, on the other hand, Maria was told that she would not be allowed to show that photo. It was not appropriate. She had the blessing of the child’s parents, but Republicans on the subcommittee alerted the capitol police (according to Spencer Pederson, a spokesman for GOP panel members), and after the hearing, the capitol police took Maria aside for questioning about “child pornography.”

1. The Republicans can't help themselves but the capitol police should be ashamed for enabling them...

Unbelievable that they would acquiesce to such subterfuge.

2. Great article

As far as I am concerned, the reThuglican party is a terrorist organization and should be disbanded. The sooner the better.

The faster we sever the hands trying to choke us, the faster we can stand up and move forward.
