Generic "some politician said something goat-fuck stupid" thread

[wmw999 2,114]

Just thought I'd put a placeholder in here. That way we don't need a new thread for each opportunity. Kind of like BillyVance's "sick and twisted" thread in Bonfire.

Only the pictures are mental.

Canadian judge under review for controversial remarks in sex case
By the CNN Wire Staff
February 25, 2011 8:33 p.m. EST

(CNN) -- A Canadian judge whose controversial ruling and remarks in a sexual assault case sparked outrage is being investigated by the Canadian court system, a website statement said Friday.

Last week, Manitoba Justice Robert Dewar sentenced 40-year-old Kenneth Rhodes to a two year conditional sentence to be served at home for raping a 26-year-old woman.

That sentence, along with comments by Dewar which suggested that there was "sex in the air," have led to several complaints from the victim and the public.

A Georgia lawmaker is proposing legislation that would redefine the term "victim" when it comes to rape and other domestic violence cases.

Republican Georgia State Representative Bobby Franklin says it's unfair to call someone a victim until there's a conviction in the case. He wants to have victims labeled as "accusers" when it comes to sexual assault and domestic violence cases in his state.

I figure, given the target field (ooh! ooh! potential gun reference!), this thread will quickly pass BillyV's for number of posts

With everything video'd and recorded nowadays, they're not exactly hard to find.

''I've now been in 57 states -- I think one left to go.''

—Barack Obama, at a campaign event in Beaverton, Oregon, May 9, 2008

''Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country.''

—Marion Barry, mayor of Washington, D.C.

''I'm the mayor, I can do whatever I want until the courts tell me I can't.''

—Sarah Palin

''I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970s that the swine flu broke out under another, then under another Democrat president, Jimmy Carter. I'm not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it's an interesting coincidence.''

—Rep. Michele Bachmann , on the 1976 Swine Flu outbreak that happened when Gerald Ford was president, April 28, 2009

''The Cambridge police acted stupidly.''

—President Barack Obama

''I hope that's not where we're going, but you know if this Congress keeps going the way it is, people are really looking toward those Second Amendment remedies and saying my goodness what can we do to turn this country around? I'll tell you the first thing we need to do is take Harry Reid out.''

—Sharron Angle, the Tea Party candidate who won the Republican nomination in Nevada's Senate primary, floating the possibility of armed insurrection, interview with right-wing talk radio host Lars Larson in Portland, OR, January 2010

''It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.''

—Barack Obama, explaining his troubles winning over some working-class voters

Does this include something like Rep. Paul Broun, who didn't respond when someone asked a question goat-fick stupid and is being hammered for it?

[wmw999 2,114]

That one's more marginal. Since I am the final arbiter of goat-fuck stupid statements (I have a large body of experience in uttering them), my decision is final.


Me, in my meeting, I'd've reacted. Miss Manners taught me how

It's a target-rich environment, I tell ya. Take human beings that folks disagree with, give them 24-hour-a-day recording of what they say in public or semi-public, and wait. It'll happen.

Lucky for me no one records what I say all the time.

With the exception of the Iraq-Poodle fiasco - which I'll grant you - Blair is pretty well thought-of outside the UK for being intelligent and articulate. So for the sake of us foreigners, give examples, please.

ETA - you posted #16 while I was typing #17.

That being said, is that all you got? Pull your weight around here, squaddie.

Just one after the other. Henry Waxman...clueless.

I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.

[rushmc 18]

Well, I'm telling them two things. One is that, look, this is going to be something when the American people realize - once it's passed - that, A, it does take care of preexisting conditions; B, you're insurance rates aren't going to skyrocket; C, the insurance companies aren't going to be running the show like they were before; D, you're going to be in a position where you can keep your insurance that you have. That once the American public realizes that, you're going to get a reward for this. They're going to be rewarded.
