Mike Pence had some trouble on Thursday with a question posed to him by an 11-year-old girl. Which is understandable given that the average 11-year-old girl is much more intelligent than Mike Pence is. In an interview on 10TV in Columbus, Ohio, anchor Scott Light referenced an incident where an 11-year-old Girl Scout visiting the studio told him, in reference to Donald Trump's comments about women, that “when I hear those words and look in the mirror they make me feel bad about myself,” and asked him how he would respond to that (starts at 6: 00):
I was just going to comment on that myself. I don't think they're really going for the denial spin as much as a "so what?" That's the angle that has the most traction with the Bernie Bro crowd, after all. They already had decided that civil rights issues were unimportant compared to "GNARHHH! ESTABLISHMENT!" So waving off assault issues are in that vein.
Trump himself though seems to be on a different track. I think he has long convinced himself that every woman wants him because he's rich and powerful and has great hair, so he's having a crisis now that he's learning that so many women did NOT want his advances. His ego can't take the reality that he can't touch a woman unless she's paid, desperate for attention or coerced.
OMG, Robyn...Night of the Hunter Mitchum scared me nearly as much as Pence, except at least that preacher wasn't running for office. Object lesson here, if I may be so bold, for other people's children: Do keep reckless/ill-considered behavior to a minimum or, failing that, for Chrissakes keep it OFF social media (!!!!), so that one day soon you can run for public office and straighten out this planet. Will be watching you from whatever realm is next...do your best; that will be enough.

that's not going to work with the BoBs. they've mostly taken up with Stein or Johnson if they haven't come to their senses.
And how does Hillary respond to kids who ask nice questions and want nice things? COMPARE AND CONTRAST!http://img.wonkette.com/wp-...

Wait, let me just cross the river into Kentucky. It may have its faults, but it doesn't have Pence.
... with fingers deep in his ears.
"Winning" is relative.
As is lying.
He's serious-stupid.
Well, I guess I'll be safe.
Pence has the empathy and intellectual depth of an empty toilet roll.
Frequent applications of vodka are working for me.
I think it's something that Donald Jr shoots for funzies
And what, pray tell, is wrong with Ohio?
Oh, wait.
Following the Path of Truthiness.
And, I've listened to Pence, and I couldn't give a Feck.
