We knew Ohio state Treasurer Josh Mandel was a TREASURE in his own right smack in the middle of his first debate with blowsy Ohio rambler Sherrod Brown. He was GRANDLY ORATING some total nonsense, and then he said this incredibly dumb thing about loving womenbecause he totally has a wife and mom so the fact that he is terrible on every single women's issue ever is like totally irrelevant. (Fucking AMAZING CLIP THAT YOU MUST WATCH not embeddable, fucking SPAN!) But has he done anything else to deserve a coveted slot in the Wonkette Pantheon of Fallen Heroes?
Not really! He is mostly just a horribly annoying talking-point pipsqueak who is annoying and thunders his talking points over and over again and is a pipsqueak. BUT! There was also this grand doozy from his second debate with Brown, in answer to the question, "How would you be bipartisan, because I, the questioner, am a total hack?" We have copy-and-pasted it for you, in all its tardedness!
Mandel: FIRST, I would find common ground with the other side by stopping foreign aid to countries that harbor terrorists, even though Senator Brown and I don’t agree, but I heard there was like one Democrat out there that I could work with on it or something. Sherrod Brown voted to give a billion dollars to Pakistan, before Pakistan fucked us on Bin Laden. He also gives billions of dollars to Libya, where the government murdered our ambassador. Egypt is a terrorist and Muslim Brotherhood and they persecute Christians, and all through the Middle East women are treated like shit. So Brown probably did that too. “In a vacuum, this would be wrong. But we also have a $16 trillion debt.” Sherrod Brown hates America, QED. “And I will work across party lines with Democrats to keep your tax dollars from going to countries that harbor terrorists.” SECOND. Energy exploration. I would be bipartisan with Joe Manchin of West Virginia on burning more coal. Sherrod Brown wants Eastern Ohio miners to starve.
We salute you, mysteriously unfragged defeated Ohio Senate candidate Josh Mandel. Thank you for your service.

Sweet, sweet teabagger tears.
I&#039;m in no mood to put up with their consciously ignorant bullshit. Sane adults can consider other people&#039;s behaviors, and morality, and metaphysics - and accept the <i>possibility</i> that they may be wrong, on occasion. These nuts have inoculated themselves from any source of information that could be objective. Just as with the homophobes, this neurosis reveals more about their inability to function in the new millenium than anything else - and if they want to participate in governing, they&#039;d better do some soul-searching about what &quot;consensus&quot; and &quot;mediation&quot; <i>really</i> mean.
No more coddling. They&#039;ve hurt too many people for too long. If they can&#039;t accept the dissenting voices in the USA as we are, I&#039;m very tempted to buy &#039;www.VotingIsASin.com&#039; and devote some time over the next two years to scaring them away from the polls.
