Not since Democratic Governor George Wallace stood in the Alabama schoolhouse door has there been an uglier political stunt than what the congressional Republicans are now perpetrating.  Not coincidentally, Wallace would go on to lead his simpatico reactionaries to a third party, one they would eventually abandon for Republicanism and morph into the Tea Party movement.

Over time, Wallace himself would come to regret and apologize for his belligerent stupidity.  Sadly, today’s Johnny Rebs and neo-Copperheads will likely carry theirs to the grave.  And the future of the Republican party along with it.

They’re not just stupid, they’re stupoids — half-human/half-robot beings engineered to exhibit knee-jerk stupidity whatever the situation.

They were all over the Sunday morning new shows, parroting the same stupoid talking point:  “We’re going to do everything we can to keep the government open while protecting our constituents from the devastating effects of Obamacare.”

Riiiiight… Even if that means shutting down the government or defaulting on our debts, regardless of the harm that does to the entire country.

Gee, that sounds so familiar.  Where have I heard that before?

Oh, yeah.  “We destroyed the village in order to save it.”

How’d that turn out?
