pt republicans in the news

Have you explored the strange world of men with too much money writing about their escort experiences on the Internet? GOOD, don’t … unless you want to learn what lingo like this might mean: “More then one man can handle alone. PSE is my thing. Keep that gfe shit!” Yeah, who wants that second thing? [...]

Virginia Beach Republican Party Chairman David Bartholomew has resigned after sending out a hilarious racist e-mail about taking a dog to get welfare benefits. We probably should have warned you before posting that sentence, as some of you probably fainted from the sheer surprise at reading such a thing. A Republican official sent out a [...]

The Value Voters Summiteers held a presidential straw poll as part of their weekend activities, and the gold medalist in both the presidential and vice-presidential categories was Indiana Congressman Mike Pence. People were surprised! And not just because the contender pool included Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee, and other famous wingnut celebrities, but because who in [...]

Wonkette’s pal Princess Sparkle Pony was reading some boring Washington Post feature about immigration and homosexuality when he noticed a NEWS SCOOP (or just common knowledge that rarely finds its way into the establishment Washington press) about a leading Republican here in the nation’s capital who lives with his secret Latino lover. And everybody knows [...]

Recent poll results confirm that America’s taste-makers, the Ohioans, believe that Congressional Minority Leader John Boehner is “just tooooo fuckin’ orange.” Why do they believe this? Oh, because they can see, with their buckeyes. Now one of Ohio’s libtard groups is using the poll results to their own ends, pointing out that Boehner’s push to [...]

GOP Congressional candidate Allen West won his primary this week against … well, who cares what the guy’s name was, he wasn’t even human. “My primary opponent is nothing more than a minor speed bump, which we will defeat, en route towards our goal of firing Pelosi-puppet, Ron Klein, on November 2,” the retired army lieutenant [...]

Iowan Kim Lehman, who serves on the Republican National Committee, used her Twitter last week to reach out and touch the Politico — which is what today’s typical American woman does, if she’s feeling lonely — and chide them for taking cash-money to protect Imam Obama’s reputation. All America’s Top Political Zine had twittered was [...]

Iowa Congressman and Bible interpretationist Steve King must be feeling bored and restless in these dog days of summer — or maybe he’s just riding a sweet corn sugar high — because he’s awfully feisty these days. It’s like he’ll say anything to get some attention! At least we can say he adds some “spontaneity” [...]

Republican Florida state house candidate Marg Baker has won the Internet celebrity sweepstakes for suggesting that Florida send illegal immigrants “out to the middle of the country and put up high walls and leave them there.” You know, get ‘em off the streets, make ‘em disappear. Like the “e” in her name! Seriously, where did [...]

Meet your new GOP friend/hero, Herman Cain. He’s “an African-American Republican, a former chief executive of Godfather’s Pizza, a cancer survivor — and the host of a popular radio show in Georgia.” A brand-new movement called Draft Cain 2012 is using Facebook technology to make Cain our next president. But is America ready for “the [...]

Illinois Congresshottie Illinois Rep Aaron Schock, who doesn’t miss his old belt at all, thank you, is campaigning against all the signs being posted up everywhere announcing that such-and-such place is a stimulus fund project. In a new YouTube, Schock rails against the signs, which he says are useless and cost “well over $10,000 a [...]

A big hearty CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Rep. John Fleming of Oily-siana, who has won the House Republicans’ “March Madness style contest … to see who could gain the most new Facebook friends, Twitter followers and YouTube subscribers” during a six-week period. The spirit of competition is alive and well in America! What exciting prize [...]

The Republicans were so proud of their shitty new website, “America Speaking Out.” They got the finest 1970s NASA computer technology to power the immediately broken & buggy webform — instead of letting the Free Market work by using Formspring or whatever — and then they were sad when a bunch of Wonkette readers filled [...]

Indiana Republican and eight-term congressman Mark Souder is resigning immediately because he had sexytime with a woman who was not married-in-Christ to him. Souder just defeated a teabagger in the GOP primary, but with less than 50% of the vote, and eh we’ve never heard of this guy — Indiana’s third congressional district, we should [...]

When is it okay for Republicans to oppose a Supreme Court nominee for, uh, apparently not being overly concerned about hiring minorities and women over equally qualified white male candidates? WHEN THE NOMINEE IS A DEMOCRAT COME ON KEEP UP. Somebody at RedState heard about somebody at the Duke Law Center on Law, Race and [...]
