'Refudiate' Racism for AmeriKKKa, Says Palin

News

Sarah Palin is so mad about the NAACP's newly passed resolution -- which asks the Tea Party to get rid of its "racist elements" -- that she could just shoot a moose!

But that's hard work and doesn't involve Sarah Palin being on Fox News, so instead she went on Fox News to tell Sean Hannity that the NAACP is divisive and building "a wall between what the message actually is and the American public," because the NAACP is so terrible.

Also, Tea Partiers are beautiful, diverse folks who "don't care that [Obama is] half-white, or half-black." Behind every "Half-Muslin" and "Go Back to Africa" sign is a pair of welcoming arms, ready to embrace other races.

Most importantly, Palin provided a "call to action" for the Obamas: It's their responsibility to "refudiate" what the NAACP's hateful new resolution says about the Tea Party. Hmm, first maybe she must teach the Obamas how to refudiate? It is just a suggestion, but refudiation is a very obscure Alaskan bargaining technique (it involves fish oil and snowflakes) and is not widely taught in Chicago/Thugtown USA.

In addition to going on television, Palin has written many deep thoughts on racism and tolerance ~~on her Facebook page~~ in her daily New York Times column, "I Too Am Literate So Shut Up."

Meet Opal Covey! Opal has been running for Mayor of Toledo, Ohio since 2012 and is a self-proclaimed prophetess with a flair for fashion and a dream to fill the city with amusement parks (and the potholes with asphalt). She claims that despite coming in last in all of these elections, she actually won them but all the votes were destroyed because "voter fraud" and that if the City of Toledo does not elect her, God will do a bunch of wrath to it.

And now she is a wrestling champion!

Yes, this Thursday, Opal made her wrestling debut on something called "Extreme Chaos Wrestling." But rather than spending the whole match doing wrestling stuff, Opal just ranted incoherently for seven minutes, until some guy named "Pain Train" showed up. Then some other guy hit Pain Train over the head with some kind of wooden stick, and Opal put her foot on his back and yelled triumphantly, the clear winner of this definitely real wrestling match.

I was *this* close to titling this post "You Seriously Will Not Freakin' Believe The Stupid Shit Republicans Want To Add To The Equality Act" before realizing that I should not do that, on account of it being a very clickbait-sounding headline and we are above that here, but seriously... you will not freakin' believe this shit.

At least I didn't, and it's awfully hard to surprise me these days. Seriously, if I were on Family Feud, with an audience made up entirely of Congressional Republicans and the topic was "Our Terrible Ideas For Amendments To The Equality Act," I would fail miserably. I would go home with nothing.

I don't know, I guess I still have too much faith in people.

The Equality Act is supposed to be an amendment to the Civil Rights Act meant to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity specifically. Theoretically, it should be as simple as that. But of course, not only do Republicans want to add a bunch of things in there meant to ensure that bigots can still discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation and gender identity, but they also want to throw in a bunch of shit in there about abortion and about prohibiting discrimination against people for their "political orientation." Because god forbid anyone judge anyone based on... the content of their character.
