Can the GOP Be More Out-of-Touch?

Top Stories this morning: “The Pentagon is tripling its spending on an effort to combat homemade bombs that are the No. 1 killer of American troops in Iraq.” Here’s a suggestion for combating homemade bombs that are the No. 1 killer of American troops in Iraq: LET’S GET OUT OF IRAQ…NOW!!!! That would solve the problem, you warmongering, ignorant, treasonous Bush administration assholes!!!! Big Story No. 2: Prissy, bitchy Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman says Hillary Clinton is “angry”. Miss Mehlman told George Steph yesterday, "I don't think the American people, if you look historically, elect angry candidates.” Oh dear me! Angry women are so UNattrative. Nobody likes angry women, I mean, women are supposed to be sweet and supportive and bake cookies and help their little boys with their makeup and sew clothes for their Barbie Bush dolls. “Hillary Clinton seems to have a lot of anger”, Mehlman said. Oh really? Well you seem to have a lot of unresolved rage against women, sweetie. Are there some emotional problems lurking in your closet? And what, may I ask, would Mehlman call Zell Miller’s venomous speech on September 3, 2004? What was Dick Cheney when he said “Fuck off” to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT)? And what does the RNC Chairman call Condi Rice’s annoyed, irritated, sour mean puss whenever she talks to foreign governments? Word to the wise, Mehlman: You give yourself away when you act so prototypically. If you’re not going to come out of the closet, then you mustn’t go around sounding like a vicious woman-hating queer, dear. Them’s the rules.
