THE 'OTHER RACISM'

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
  • SHUT UP AND MAKE THE GENERAL A GODDAMN PIE: Republicans tend to hate it when ladies have jobs. They should be at home, pooping out babies, because of the Bible. Sometimes they conceal this hatred, sometimes they don’t, and sometimes they don’t in official NRCC press releases: “If Nancy Pelosi’s failed economic policies are any indicator of the effect she may have on Afghanistan, taxpayers can only hope McChrystal is able to put her in her place.” These vaginers don’t understand America, and War: our government ranks military commanders over civilian commanders, duh.

Anyway, so Nancy Pelosi could have easily been like, “Alan: just mumble some bad-faith apology on Rachel Maddow or whatever and we will reimburse you for the Kinko’s purchases.” It being Nancy Pelosi, she of course did the opposite.
