Barbour Replaces Sanford As GOP’s Latest 2012 Hopeful Who Will Be Smote By Romney

by Sara K. Smith  4:09 pm June 24, 2009

Sleep with one eye openHmm, so that important meeting that Haley Barbour had with assorted Washington fancies on Monday night … folks thought it was all just prelude to a 2012 run, but might it have had something to do with the whole Sanford affair? Because now Barbour is the new head of the Republican Governors Association — at least, until he confesses to an illicit romantical affair with a South American canasta champion.

That was fast: The Republican Governors Association just announced that Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour — already “in line” to take the chairmanship of the RGA — has assumed it.

“As a former RNC chairman and one of the best governors in the country, no one is better positioned to takeover as RGA chairman than Governor Barbour,” executive director Nick Ayers said in a statement.

The folks that Barbour met with on Monday were NOT members of the RGA, but whatever. The point is that whenever Republicans have a secret meeting, it’s to talk about who will do the cleanup following the latest sex affair confession. Eventually, the only Republican eligible to run against President Obama in 2012 will be the one with no known sex organs (Mitt).

I think the RGA is safe with Barbour…because let’s face it, not even a prostitute would fuck that.

ALIVE! June 24, 2009 at 4:12 pm

I just saw a picture of Barbour being carried, along with his identical twin brother, by Mark Sanford. Confused.

rambone June 24, 2009 at 4:12 pm

We need to hip hop the RGA! Place Michael Steele in charge of everything, I say!

Crazybroad June 24, 2009 at 4:12 pm

SarahPAC is arranging for a five-diamond whore to be send to Barbour’s house as a congratulations present as we speak.

4tehlulz June 24, 2009 at 4:14 pm

Mr. Barbour will then disappear for a week, only to turn up on Perfect Ladyboys.

Extemporanus June 24, 2009 at 4:14 pm

Babar’s first name is “Haley?”

That doesn’t sound very French.

pedestrian rage June 24, 2009 at 4:14 pm

Look everybody! The Rs put a puffy white southern fella in charge. Who could’ve seen that coming?

Autochthon June 24, 2009 at 4:15 pm

Dang, the RGA is now headed by Baron Harkonnen? His being governor of Mississippi is a mighty nice touch, too…

Jamie Sommers June 24, 2009 at 4:16 pm

[re=347321]Tommmcatt[/re]: Agreed. There is no crack whore that desperate for a fix, no Russian girl wanting to come to America that badly, no Thai boy that afraid of his pimp.

Let us crown the one fated to loose completely and fully in 2012!

slappypaddy June 24, 2009 at 4:19 pm

GOP these days reminds me of Sove Union in its last years as it tottered to collapse and trotted out tottering leader after etc., all of whom (possible exception Gorbachev) were eminently unfuckable and doomed soon to die.

Are recalcitrant Confederates all the GOP has left to offer? Stick a fork in it, it’s done.

TGY June 24, 2009 at 4:20 pm

Luckily, the RGA has a full line-up of losers to replace defunct heads.

Haley’s a solid replacement: he’d rather fuck a hog than set foot in once-commie country.

Aw hell, he’d just rather fuck a hog.

You know nobodys fucking Haley.

Finally someone we can trust.

MITT ROMNEY DOES NOT REQUIRE “SEX” ORGANS. MITT ROMNEY REPRODUCES BY SPONTANEOUS FISSION. END TRANSMISSION.

Romney doesn’t need sex organs to smoke Barbour’s pole.

Hopetarded June 24, 2009 at 4:28 pm

Haley Barbour: A man who presses [1] for English when he calls the sexy phone sex lines.

And the Republicans continue to move farther and farther south.

blackdontcrack June 24, 2009 at 4:30 pm

haha! The awful librul media has tracked down Gov Sanfords match.com hookup in Bs As.

“The woman declined to talk to a reporter. The doorman at the building, shown a photograph of Sanford, said he did not recognize him.”

That’s SO true! No one ever looks like their online photo.

PerhapsSo June 24, 2009 at 4:31 pm

Can we get a Mitt fudge photo, por favor?

Hooray For Anything June 24, 2009 at 4:31 pm

Another old, Southern White Guy? Have the Republicans run out of minorities and women already?

19kevin8 June 24, 2009 at 4:31 pm

Seeing as the Republicans have almost batted around, does this mean Jindal will be trotted out again as the “next Reagan”?

DagNabbit June 24, 2009 at 4:34 pm

Smittens?

problemwithcaring June 24, 2009 at 4:35 pm

One of the best governors in the country? Is that like saying you have the most distinguished online degrees?

Airborne Toxic Event June 24, 2009 at 4:35 pm

In a related note, Sarah Palin was recently spotted in Santa Cruz at an Indigo Girls concert.

SayItWithWookies June 24, 2009 at 4:39 pm

Barbour is the Boss Hogg of the Republican party — and not just because of the physical resemblance. He’s also got his fingers in every little bit of corruption he can possibly find. This is like putting Henry VIII in charge of a reformation.

A Better American Than YOU June 24, 2009 at 4:41 pm

Oooooh, Haley Barbour. Now that does bring a fresh breath of excitement.

Come here a minute June 24, 2009 at 4:43 pm

Canasta! Yipee, hope she’s playing castanets too!

FormerDCite June 24, 2009 at 4:46 pm

Gov. Barbour, isn’t he the one in “Return of the Jedi”? You know the one with Princess Leah chained to his throne.

Min June 24, 2009 at 4:46 pm

Tennesseans love Mississippi. It gives us someone to look down on, when the fog rises off the Mississippi River, and we can’t see Arkansas.

Haley’s lookin’ good. Has he lost weight?

Similarly, according to the movie, Rose deWitt Bukater and Jack Dawson were, for about 1 second, the last captains of the Titanic.

Here’s a little rundown of Boss Hogg’s accomplishments — at least until 2007:

Straight Latina Female, married with kids.
Looking to meet: Republican Governor of Red State Hellhole.
Turn-ons: Getting career advice, 5 day sobbing make-out sessions, long-distance relationships, hypocricy, “sparking”, dressing like a boy and exclaiming, “You’re my daddy now!”
Turn-offs: Hiking.

Bruno June 24, 2009 at 5:49 pm

Sorry if this has been said already, but who the fuck cares if he steps down from some governor’s association. Let’s see some steppin’ down as governor. Hey, Spitzer was man enough to do it, and those were just prostitutes, not “dear dear friends”

TeddyS June 24, 2009 at 5:49 pm

The State newspaper had the explicit sexytime emails in December. Aggressive journalism.

Governor Sanford has now apologized to everyone but the entire citizenry of the United States. Why does Mark Sanford hate America?

Bruno June 24, 2009 at 5:50 pm

Eh, Barbour will only have luck with prostitutes. Or young boys

sezme June 24, 2009 at 5:50 pm

[re=347459]AxmxZ[/re]: Haley is a girl’s name, also.

Bruno June 24, 2009 at 5:55 pm

[re=347322]ALIVE![/re]: You’re not thinking of the famous front-butt pixxx with all the furries around looking sad are you? If you have no idea what I’m talking about, just watch Wonkette for 6 weeks and the image will eventually fall into the rotation.

pdiddycornchips June 24, 2009 at 5:57 pm

Haley Barbour appeals to evangelical white southerners while the rest of the country recoils in horror. Putting this guy in charge makes sense only if the south is planning to repeat the 1860′s. I know how nostalgic the crackers get about that particular period in US history but did they really forget how it ended?

Can O Whoopass June 24, 2009 at 6:09 pm

The GOP is safe with Barbour… because, not even Bristol Palin or Newt or Darth would fuck that lardassed piece of shit .

bitchincamaro June 24, 2009 at 6:16 pm

[re=347473]SayItWithWookies[/re]: “Haley Barbour is to Katrina what Rudy Giuliani was to 9/11.” Well, that just about says it all.

azw88 June 24, 2009 at 8:59 pm

[re=347502]Bruno[/re]: The first time I saw that image and the comments that followed, I was in tears from laughing so hard, yet trying to keep it in. Which is fine when sitting in your own office, not so when sitting at a sushi bar @ lunch looking at your SmartPhone…

lazynamepicker June 24, 2009 at 10:54 pm

The Klan robe in Barbour’s closet will be revealed soon enough.

As Maggie said to Brick, “Git that no-neck monster out of here.”

Dolmance July 1, 2009 at 1:20 pm

You know, the Republicans can be divided up into various factions. Haley Barbour is a part of the Southern wing of the Foghorn Leghorn faction. The Foghorn Leghorn faction is a very common variety and they have nothing new to say – God, Guns and Lethal Injections, is about it. And there’s nothing new in that.
