Is it like SWEEPS week on KO's "Worst Person in the World" segment or something?
Reading DU today we have:

Jim DeMint trying to make sure the womenfolk are good and pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen by denying them contraception AND abortion rights.

Republican racist assholes picking on Katrina victims.

CHEAP Republican racist assholes leaving nasty notes in restaurants in place of the tips they ought to be leaving for their servers.

Missouri Republicans passing anti abortion laws to prove how "pro-life" they are.

A Kirksville (MO) City Councilman who won't rent to gay people.

Santelli and the CNBC crew being ...well ... CNBC assholes..

Rush Limbaugh being...well.. Rush Douchebag...talking about Ted Kennedy in the past tense...

A Kansas lawmaker making fun of people making $2.65/hr under his state's slave labor rate minimum wage.

An Oklahoma Gun Safety Instructor throwing Obama voters out of his STATE funded class.

The Oklahoma State Legislature trying to revive the Scopes Monkey Trial.

and

the Kentucky State Legislature trying to pass an anti-gay adoption bill (gay+verb+noun wedge issue).


Is Keith offering a special prize to the winner or something?

:crazy:

:rofl:

1. Like shooting fish in a barrel, isn't it?
Hadn't heard about DeMint's comments. You have a link?

Another recent one:

Missouri Republicans push birth certificate questions to oppose 'tyranny'

Fifteen Republican members of the Missouri General Assembly have signed on to a state constitutional amendment that appears aimed at advancing the claims of the fringe movement that doubts President Barack Obama's eligibility to serve as president.

The language is contained in a proposed "voter’s bill of rights," which would serve "as a defense against corruption, fraud, and tyranny."

The proposed amendment states:

For candidates who are required by the Constitution of the United States to be natural born citizens, the secretary of state shall request an official copy of the candidate’s birth certificate. Other certifications, such as a certificate of live birth, shall not be accepted. Should any candidate fail to provide an official birth certificate within thirty days of the request by the secretary of state, his or her name shall not be placed on the ballot.

The Birthers, as they're known, have focused on the State of Hawaii's refusal to release the original of Obama's birth certificate, as opposed to official copies; Hawaii state law bars the release of the original.

State Rep. Robert Cooper wasn't immediately available to discuss the bill, which has drawn criticism on local liberal blogs.

3. Anyone have a link for "CHEAP Republican racist assholes leaving nasty notes in restaurants"
They're leaving notes instead of tips to teach the working class a lesson?

7. It's right here on DU.. they are blaming Obama for not being able to leave a proper tip...
ASSHOLES...

A lot of the people they are screwing are likely Republican religious types who are poor but let their religious views get in the way of their best financial interests and are thus Republicans.
