Aren't the Republicans supposed to be against identity politics? A core conservative belief is that we shouldn't worry about our government "looking like America," with its various genders and ethnic groups, but that we should instead choose our leaders based solely on merit (i.e., whiteness, maleness, heterosexuality, former-lobbyist-ness). But one GOP consultant in Arizona has gone rogue and recruited one terribly underrepresented group into his state's political life: the neglected but wise hobo! Unfortunately, due to Ben Quayle's unexpected stranglehold on the Arizona Republican Party, this hobo-advocate had no choice but to put these brave bums on the Green Party line, and if that causes a Democrat or four to lose in November, well, isn't that a small price to pay, for diversity?
That first guy managed to pack a lot in his 20 years of living, but why describe himself as the illegitimate son of a stripper? Do strippers have legitimate children that often?
Nader talks a good game, but I would imagine some of these hobos have actually lost a limb or a digit, when they stuck their arm into the machine to retrieve the cigarette they dropped into it. Workplace safety, indeed! Don't get that hobo started on workplace safety, Mr. Nader!
Throw the bums in.
Gotta hand it to the repubes...some folks just talk about providing jobs for the homeless.
Hmmmmm, that picture of Ken makes me think he needs an intervention… Wonkette style.

Simplicity = Perfection.
