"Those good old American Heartland Tea Party Christian Family Values."

Google 'Scott Esk'.

I understand that he's not representative of the entire Republican Party.

I do feel we're all better off because he actually let the words come out.

I feel the GOP will try to get him to back off. When this fails, they'll encourage him to drop out. And after that goes bye-bye, they'll hope they can contain him once he wins that seat.

*shrug* I was wondering who Santorum would be running with.

I'm guessing he's also a card-carrying participant in the Bible Buffet. Take one law from this chapter...

It also used to be considered just to burn red haired people at the stake since red hair clearly indicated you were a witch in league with Satan. I suppose he'll volunteer since he wants to bring back all that old time justice.

And a higher tolerance for pain. And takes more anesthesia to put us out.

Maybe we are witches.

How anyone votes for an idiot like that, I will never know. Respect for the Bible is great, I share that respect. Living in a time warp and claiming to be "libertarian"....wtf?

PRE!!!

Reported facebook quote from Esk;

"I realise, and I'm largely libertarian, but ignoring as a nation things that are worth of death is very remiss."

I will echo your "WTF".

But in any race with him involved, would you vote for the Democrat?

For a lot of people, it's about the brand. He's insane. But he's wearing your colors, which means he's on your side, which means looking to anyone else is enemy action, and then we go to Not A Real American and I think you know the sequence from there.

Stone?

*nods*

That old he may be crazy but he won't vote with those people on the other side of the aisle does seem to be how a fair number of peeps get elected.

Depends on how many swing voters you have that will get scared enough to swing away even if they generally tend to prefer that brand more often than not

That's how Obama got elected. And probably how Bush got his second term.

You hit the nail on the head Estee. We end up with the government we deserve because people vote for "their guy" or against the "other guy" (non-gender specific). I would, and have, vote libertarian here but it's a bit of a cop out because you have to think the Dem doesn't have a huge chance. It becomes much harder when it's competitive and you're not just making a protest vote that doesn't hand power to the other side.

Hey, PRE! How are things?

Yeah, part of me kinda hates that the GOP is going through some of these death throes (to call it something), part of me thinks maybe it is just a necessary evolutionary process. Why do these throwbacks keep turning up?

I mean, Jesus was informed by the same scriptures and He had issues with stoning, doesn't that tell us anything?

I will say, though, that barbaric as it is, stoning does have one advantage over most if not all other forms of execution. Everyone participates, everyone has blood on their hands, there is no hiding from it.

What gets me is that he calls himself "100% Pro-Life" at one point, but advocates stoning gay folks to death. (Yes, I know it's two separate issues...but last time I checked, "100%" meant no wiggle room whatsoever on any issue regarding life. Including capital punishment.)

Completely off-topic yet on topic regarding sexual organs and stones...

Beware the stone.

Bring him back and set up a hidden camera which focuses only on him. After all, shouldn't his voters know who to stone first?

Just to close the loop on this, he got 231 votes (5%). Needless to say, I don't think we neeed to worry about Scott Esk anymore.

Posted by Estee on 07-02-14 at 04:26 PM
Assuming he voted for himself, I'd say there are 230 other people worth worrying about.

So.

Yeah.

What's next?

"RE: Please tell me this is a joke."

What's next?

First, ban all of these words from the English dictionary.

Second, burn any dictionaries that do not comply with the ban.

Third, burn any people who might happen to use any of these words.

And dump the properly labeled homogenized and pasteurized milk in the fridge.

There goes about half of the world's scientists, including Pasteur himself, which might be a good thing since most of them believe in evolution as science.

LOL. Those who can't teach, boss.

Oh, the homophone. The lesser-known vote-purchasing cousin to the Obamaphone.

Not to let facts get in the way, but wasn't that originally a Dubya program?

Fine. Ruin my joke with a point. Yes, it was started under W. If memory serves, it was expanded under Obama. But regardless who started it, her unashamed stance of how great O is for giving her stolen property is what disturbs me.
