That's what they'll say and they'll be partly right but let's not forget the Republican platform. As atavistic and out of touch as it gets.

No, it's "a little bit slow, bless their hearts."

Gotta put the blessing in. Otherwise it's a little too mean.

I love Southern manners.

"And did you see that dress? It looks like something the Salvation Army turned down. Bless her heart."


"Oh, and it looks like she's really been enjoying her new cheesecake recipe. Bless her heart."

I used to think so but now I'm not so certain

WW1 test pilot with the Royal Flying Corps, retired to Jersey Island. His place was beautiful and he was a genuinely humorous man.

The most pathetic part about the launch post being satire is the fact that the republican party is such a mess that the 'satire' is entirely believable.
