This is quite an entertaining article.

I mean, can it get much better than this?

But Romney says he can buy a really big needle for the camel to go through.

This article is bigoted and inflammatory and has no place in the America of the 21st century.

Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

LOL Romney is a socialist. I guess the word doesn't mean anything anymore, at least not in America.

I also liked the part about the guy who was going to "puzzle over Obama's nomination to the world bank" as his name sounded familiar to the North Korean dictator. That's because the nominee is of Korean descent, numbnuts.

I would wager that an embarrassingly high portion of White rural Southern Conservatives believe Obama nominated Kim Jong Un to lead the World Bank.

Half of Koreans have the surname "Kim," and a quarter "Park," so mixing up all these Korean guys is certainly understandable isn't it?

Best part:

Just about the only Romney supporter watching baseball in the fields next to the polls was Marsha Parchman, 46, a nurse. She wasn’t sure what she liked about Romney, although she planned to vote for him.

"I like him better," she said. "I don’t know why."

"Shreveport, more Texas than Louisiana..."



Northern Louisiana and East Texas have more in common with each other than either one does with the rest of its state.

I would wager a lot of dry cleaning shop owners in Louisiana are tired of their customers asking how they find the time to run North Korea and be president of Dartmouth while pressing suits for such reasonable prices.

I think this quote, from an Irish Times article shortly before Romney won Florida, is all you need to know about your average GOP primary voter.

Guys, this isn't really a Shrevport thing. Pretty much all Republicans in Louisiana have this type of attitude, outside of New Orleans, most of Jefferson Parish, and maybe Baton Rouge.

For many it's a generic political insult, like Commie was when I was growing up in the 60's and 70's.
