Spot the Looney


With Sharon "2nd Amendment Remedies" Angle (W-Nevada) and South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint(R-Teabagger) both dropping hints they might run for president, the field of certifiable crazies angling to become "leader of the free world" under the Republican banner looks something like this:
Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Tim Pawlenty, Haley Barbour, Jim DeMint, John Thune, Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann, Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum, Rudy Guiliani, John Bolton, Sharon Angle and Ron Paul.
Sorry to break it to ya, my dear Republican friends, but there's not one reasonable, honest or intelligent person among them. Notice I didn't even mention "presidential." Good Lord, Mitt Romney looks like the front-runner out of that pack of hyenas. The fact that these are the brightest lights in the Republican Party would once have been cause for alarm in the Grand Old Party.

These days it's cause only to set Eisenhower, Goldwater, Rockefeller and Buckley all spinning in their graves.

UPDATE: Holy smokes! How could I leave loathsome Congressman Mike Pence (W-Indiana) out of the mix? I once heard him described as having "all the honesty of a used car salesman and all the sincerity of a Sunday morning televangelist."
