Brownback Packs It In



It with not one, not two, but multitudes of large, glistening tears rolling down my face and splattering my Prada bowling shoes that I must report that, alas, Sam Brownback is no longer running for president.

*sniff*

It will take a while, and none of us will ever fully recover, but together we can work through this!

Huckabee 4EVER!!!!!

Let the Dignified Campaigning Begin! Brownback Deploys Sarcastic Dolphins


Photo: Reason Magazine

OMG, the Republican primaries are going to be so great! Flip Romney: Just Another Flip-Flopper from Massachusetts. Ouchy! The photo above comes from Reason's foray to the belly of the beast itself, some kind of scary GOP slumber party called CPAC. Here's their description of their colleague's delightful encounter with the mud-slinging, t-shirt bedecked aquatic mammal:
Justin, of the blog My Man Mitt, is challenged by the Romney Dolphin, who backs down after a barrage of follow-up questions on Romney's supposed flip-flops. I later learn the Romney dolphin (who won't reveal his name) was hired by Sam Brownback's campaign, which has a truly overwhelming presence at the conference. Speaking of overwhelming presences:

Public Service

I wasn't wild about the Sam Brownback signs held by today's protesters, although I noted with approval that the typeface appeared to be a variation of Cooper Bold, one of my old-timey faves. Surely they can do better? Surely I can do better! So here, free of charge, is a bold new sign for Brownback fans to wave around at their next rally:

I Wish I Were a Girl So That I Could Get an Abortion


Click for bigger, Brownbackier!

Ah yes, it was official anti-choice creeps day on the Mall, one of my least favorite days of the year. And tomorrow their detritus will be everywhere, because the religious kooks, year after year, are always the litterbuggiest protesters ever. New to the scene this year were the legions of Brownback supporters (see above), proving conclusively that he's got the Krazy Vote™ totally locked up. Hooray!

(Also, can we talk about the name Brownback? It always seems vaguely obscene to me, as in, "Oh, God, sorry... I'm really not into brownbacking." I mean... ew.)

Oh, and the title of this post? That's my favorite comeback (try it!) to any anti-choice cretin who dares to try to engage me in "dialog". It always guarantees a hasty retreat. I wish I could take credit for it, but the swish of the combable tail goes to John Waters for that little nugget of joy. My colleague Cathy (co-author, somewhat ironically, of this book) has an even better one: "I'm a lesbian and I had an abortion. Aren't you glad?"

Helpful Tips for Wannabe Christian Lunatics


Step Five: Brownback '08!

Sure, we all want to be spittle-flecked, hysterical religious whack-jobs, but wbere to start? Thank goodness for Chuck Baldwin, the former VP candidate from the Silly Party (the hilariously-named Constitution Party), and noteworthy radio chucklehead, because he's just published a handy and inspirational call-to-arms titled "What Christians Can Do". It's an easy step-by-step process, it turns out:
  1. Ditch your girly church and find a suitably fanatical one. This may require additional travel time and/or relocation.
  2. Hide in a cave with nothing but World Net Daily and Christian talk radio. Even Fox News, shockingly, can't be trusted.
  3. Leave the GOP. They simply aren't committed enough to serious craziness.
  4. Close your eyes and pray.
Sounds great to me! I hope it catches on.

Brownback: Racial Segregation for Peace in Iraq



If you think Sam Brownback is crazy, well just wait and see, because he's just getting started! His latest dewdrop of wisdom is that Iraq would be so much better if all those pesky different races, forever bitch-slapping each other, were simply walled off from one another:
"We are not willing to impose a military solution in Iraq. The Iraqis, I don't believe, are going to be capable of imposing a military solution. Therefore, you must get to some form of political equilibrium in Iraq. And by that I think you may end up having to have a Kurdish, a Sunni, a Shite area, and Baghdad being a federal capital. Hopefully you can maintain it in one country," he said.
Oh, sure, what could possible go wrong? Brownback probably also thinks Sunis and Shia should use separate bathrooms and, naturally, drinking fountains, and... hey, I know! Let's send Strom Thurmond's corpse over to serve as figurehead!

Bad Man!



I just had an overpowering urge to share, again, the above picture of Mr. Brownback.

UPDATE: Looks like my web site/picture host is down again. Two nights in a row, yay! Check back later!

It's Getting a Little Too "Meta" in Here

So here's some pictures of Senator Brownback (R-Kansas), since he was so annoying on Face the Nation today:
