After the debacle that was Clint Eastwood's performance at the republican National Convention this year, republicans were wont to complain that Democrats were using a double standard: it was perfectly okay for Democrats to cheer on Bill Maher, Barbra Streisand, or Jon Stewart, but not for the republicans to react in kind to Clint Eastwood?
Um...the big difference is that we weren't fucking stupid enough to put our celebrities on two spots before our party's nominee and even if we had, we certainly wouldn't have let him have free reign with his script, and we most assuredly wouldn't have put someone up there who was anti-choice and an opponent of LGBT rights. Which is exactly what the republicans, and by extension, Willard's campaign chose to do.
Do we really want an administration that would fuck up one of the most important moments of its campaign so badly? I mean these conventions are scripted down to when it's appropriate to fart and they put an addled old coot out there with completely free reign to talk to a fucking chair?
Give me a fucking break--I wouldn't have these idiots cut my lawn, let alone run the most powerful country in the world.
Peace,
