Republican news was dominated by Indiana first, and now Jones. What's next? The Temple of Doom? Or the Last Crusade?

"Something Appealing, Something Appalling, Something for everyone, a COMEDY tonight..." That HAS to be the theme song for the G.O.P. (God's Our Papa) party this time around! And, of course, the fringies can only ADD to the zaniness! It's going to be SO entertaining between now and Hilliary's inauguration.

The Big Gay is so ubiquitous, they've even put chemicals in our water to make rainbows. I really wish this was a joke, but Google "Sprinkler Rainbow Conspiracy" to see there really are people who think there's something sinister in our water making rainbows. I gotta go lay down.

Wait, don't laugh. I think we should be encouraging him to throw all of his money into the campaign. And all his parishioners should donate their lifes savings as well. With God on their side, how can they lose?

Darnit, the Greens and Constitution Party can't even get on the ballot in NC. So how am I going to vote for the Burn the Qur'an Party? Perhaps if they merge with the Burn the Bible Party, we can get enough signatures to get them on the ballot.

In 2012, after Obama's big win, the GOP met and changed the rules for the primary process. They reversed the previous reforms, which had been intended to add more transparency, but had resulted in empowering fringe extremists and produced embarrassing clown parades--and, ultimately, Wall Street-annointed nominees who were not loved by the rank and file in the heartland.

Glad to to see they fixed that.

I’m running for president. Vote for me.

Further proof that a GOP presidential candidate has to have what it takes to go from being a local disgrace to a national embarrassment.
