Bill Maher

My New Rule for Todd Akin and the Republican Party

............................

If rape babies throw a monkey wrench into the whole right-to-life pitch, just make believe rape babies don't exist. If you want to cut down on teen pregnancy, just tell curious kids with raging hormones to practice abstinence. Until they get married. Because everyone knows, that's when the fucking never stops. Health care? Not a problem if you just keep repeating, "We have the greatest health care in the world." Even though the U.N. ranks it 37th.

What's the solution to global warming? It's that it isn't real, and even if it is, big whoop, just buy an air conditioner, you pussy. Republicans also believe that putting the word "clean" next to the word "coal" creates something called clean coal. Even thought there's the exact same amount of evidence for clean coal as there is for Todd Akin's mistaken baby makin' theory.

Republicans also believe if they kick all the Mexicans out of the country, the strawberries will pick themselves, and that if they cut the safety net all the poor blacks are "resting" in, they will fall gently to the ground, stand up, dust themselves off, and get good-paying jobs as Olympic gymnasts.

Next week in Tampa the Republicans must admit that the difference between a GOP convention and Comic-Con is that the people at Comic-Con have a much firmer grasp of reality.

5. Magical thinking

I just had an....uh.... "argument" in the Religion forum about this. The rebuttal was "What about the millions who have experienced ESP???? Huh? HUH??"

See.... this is exactly what Maher is talking about. And it's coming to a crisis point. Alas for the GOP, reality will win. It always does, because.... it's reality.

The tragedy is we ALL have to (needlessly) suffer while the Conservatives play dangerous make believe.

And what's even worse.... a lot of high ranking conservatives KNOW it's make believe. Disingenuous double plus.

Bill is a brilliant writer. This should be the Keynote at the Cons Convention
