* The idiocy of the Republicans is starting to make itself more apparent, even to low information voters. Here are the pieces of evidence to clearly demonstrate the stupidity, arrogance, and pure sense of entitlement that the Republicans and their white male-dominated, anti-woman, anti-Medicare, anti-college student, and anti-middle class political party:
1. If you Google "
nude Republicans Sea of Galilee" today you'll find out what a few Republicans did--- Six Republicans swimming in the Sea of Galilee?
Politico:
During a fact-finding congressional trip to the Holy Land last summer, Rep. Kevin Yoder
(R-Kan.) took off his clothes and jumped into the sea, joining a number
of members, their families and GOP staff during a night out in Israel,
the sources told POLITICO. Other participants, including the daughter of
another congressman, swam fully clothed, while some lawmakers partially
disrobed. More than 20 people took part in the late-night dip in the
sea, according to sources who were participants in the trip....
...These GOP sources confirmed the following freshmen lawmakers also went swimming that night: Rep. Steve Southerland
(R-Fla.) and his daughter; Rep. Tom Reed (R-N.Y.) and his wife; Reps.
Ben Quayle (R-Ariz.), Jeff Denham (R-Calif.) and Michael Grimm (R-N.Y.).
Many of the lawmakers who ventured into the lake said they did so
because of the religious significance of the waters. Others said they
were simply cooling off after a long day. Several privately admitted
that alcohol may have played a role in why some of those present decided
to jump in....
Shame!
2. Republican Rep. Todd Akin, a candidate for Senate for Missouri, showed his views.
Rep. Todd Akin, Missouri’s Republican Senate nominee, caused a public
outcry Sunday when he told a local television station that “legitimate
rape” rarely leads to pregnancy.
“First of all, from what I understand from doctors [pregnancy from
rape] is really rare,” Akin, the Republican Senate nominee in Missouri,
said. ”If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to
shut that whole thing down.”
Akin later issued an apology, saying he “misspoke” when he made an
“off-the-cuff” remark. Empirical evidence suggests that he is indeed
wrong: Research published in the Journal of American Obstetrics and Gynecology suggests
over 30,000 pregnancies result from rape annually. “Rape-related
pregnancy occurs with significant frequency,” the trio of researchers
from the University of South Carolina concluded. “It is a cause of many unwanted pregnancies.”
A separate 2001 study – which used a sample of 405 rape victims between ages 12 and 45 – found that 6.4 percent became pregnant.....
Does Missouri want to send this ignoramus to the Senate? I hope not.
3. Josh Mandel had this to say about Medicare and Social Security (from his
Jobs Plan):
Save Medicare and Social Security
The inability of Washington politicians to control spending has threatened important programs like Medicare and Social Security....
Republican candidate, Josh Mandel, Ohio's absent Treasurer, is endorsed by the Club for Growth. The Club for Growth supports "saving" Medicare or Medicare "reform" ---- View this
LINK. Anyone that says they want to
reform or
save Medicare means they want to hand out vouchers.
