Republican rehabilitation!
By voting for Ron Paul, you hereby agree to a major reality check. (and you need to grow up)
By voting for Mitt Romney, you hereby agree to a period of rehabilitation.
By voting for Newt Gingrich, you hereby agree to intense rehabilitation and/or ECT.
By voting for Rick Santorum, you hereby agree to a lobotomy.
This article is fantastic for those on the left who are less-than-impressed by President Obama. Don’t lose sight of what he has done (and what his plan is). The point is that Obama is and always has been “planning for eight years, not four.” He has his goals in sight, folks.
Apparently Gingrich has forgotten that one of the huge points of his campaign is to “protect the sanctity of marriage.” If he hadn’t pretended to be a moral crusader out to save the world from the LGBT community, this question would have been out of place. Instead, a question about his infidelity (and his allegedly approaching his 2nd wife about an open marriage) that came about after his ex-wife’s recent interview is completely fair game.
If you think you can tell the country what is moral and immoral and then be surprised when we ask you about your second case of adultery (yes, he cheated on his first wife while she was dying in the hospital) you are obviously not a very smart man.
When you go home to your third wife tonight, I hope you sleep well as you continue your campaign to save marriage from vicious attacks by monogamous LGBT couples.

Newt Gingrich at the ABC Republican debate tonight.
So, people in committed, same-sex relationships are just “friends” and cannot be involved in something as holy as marriage because we will ruin its sanctity… says the man who cheated on his first two wives.
Also, I am so sick of Republicans acting like the “institution of marriage” has never changed. You know, because white people still can’t marry black people, women are still the property of their husbands, and King Solomon could totally have 700 wives today. Nope, marriage hasn’t changed a bit.
He’s seriously been disappointing me lately. When I learned of his lack of compassion, that was the first bummer… But now this? Ugh.
The GOP has filibustered the payroll tax cut extension. Yes, the party that wants to protect people from evil, dangerous taxes has voted to raise them on the middle class to avoid a 3.25% raise on taxes of those making more than $1million a year.
That means middle class families could face a tax increase of around $1,000 this year.
And letting the Bush tax cuts expire would be unfair? Oh okay.
Does she have a staff at all? I mean, it would be preferable that she know these things already, but doesn’t she have people working for her that are supposed to keep her in the know? (Not that this qualifies as current events… it’s been 30 years.)

Stay classy, haters!
Hey, LGBT people! If you’re not going to stand up for your rights and the rights of your brothers and sisters then just STAY IN THE CLOSET AND KEEP YOUR MOUTHS SHUT.
You don’t have to be a Democrat just because you’re gay… but if you support an anti-gay politician (read: Republican) then you’re just a self-loathing gay person who is pretending to not want respect or rights.
With 13.9 million American’s unemployed, now is not the time to end unemployment benefits.
