"Conservative Idiots: Woman Marries Dog"? Not quite.

[Mugsy]

Idiot #9 of this weeks Top Ten Conservative Idiots, it quotes State Rep Jim Welker noting "A year ago in India, a woman married her dog." Mmm, not quite.

A "woman" married "her" dog? Sounds like "love gone awry". A quick Google search reveals it was a 9 year old girl, not a grown woman. And it wasn't "her beloved pet" but a stray, which the child married "to ward off evil spirits". An aberration inside an otherwise enlightened country.

Give this guy an extra "Idiot" mention next week for intentional deception.

1. What state?

Perhaps in his mind, 9-yr-old girls are marrying material?

3. Colorado n/t

4. HA

Coke on keyboard!

5. 9 year old children also talk to imaginary friends.

What was his point?

[Mugsy]

6. Point? Top of his head.

Part of his justification for banning gay marriage. "What's next?" he argued.

[NYC]

7. So women in India marrying dogs was to become the trend

of the new millennium? I get it. (And that would be 9 year old women. Maybe he doesn't count well.)

8. NeoCons thrive on deception.

A neocon can't make a point w/o resorting to deception because the FACTS never support their assertions.

9. Self deception, too.

I think very often they thrive on self deception. And, yes, they outright lie. It doesn't bother them in the least. But if you think about it, why would it bother a self-serving person to lie?
