Sounds like all the smarter Republicans would agree with my idea--just cancel the Republican convention this year.

Of course, the difference is I was suggesting they should do so on principle....

The "Jesus shot"

https://www.yahoo.com/news/texas-off...230257637.html

Public corruption investigators in Texas confirmed Wednesday they are looking into the state's agriculture chief after allegations arose that he used taxpayer funds to obtain a so-called "Jesus shot" in Oklahoma, an injection marketed as curing pain for life.

The Jesus Shot is "embarrassingly named" according to Oklahoma medical authorities, but they find nothing illegal about this marketing of an anti-inflamatory treatment. This 'doctor' lost his license in Ohio, previously, over medical fraud. No comment in the story about the purported claim that it 'cures pain for life.'

If he has made that claim, I wish him pain for life, and lots of it.

That a Texas Republican would go for it, and stick the taxpayers for such stupidity, is outrageous, but par for the course with these idiots.

I have to bring this up again, too good a story about the profitably of preying on the hopefully gullible.

Real capitalistic values in action! Great story!

GOP Hits Rock Bottom




Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.

That disclaimer appears at the bottom of every story the HuffPo runs on Trump.

The way that disclaimer reads makes Trump look pretty smart. After all, regardless of their religious beliefs there's no way we can handle an influx of 1.6 billion people.

I am encouraged and inspired by conservatives such as Andrew Sullivan who are battling against Trump. I am sicked by all the GOP creatures who are starting to fawn on him.
