Two more reasons...

...why it's necessary that we don't just defeat republicans, but completely annihilate them.

To wit:

  • Rick Santorum commented last week that Pope Francis should leave Climate Change to scientists--conveniently ignoring the fact that he's not a scientist, either.  Santorum later compounded his idiocy by saying that because he's a politician he's more qualified to discuss it than the Pope (the Pope does have a background in science).  Unfortunately for Santorum, large donations from big oil to his campaign doesn't make him anymore an expert than the Pope.
  • South Dakota Senator John Thune today tweeted that President Obama should acknowledge that Obamacare is bad for the American people because six million Americans could lose their subsidies because of the upcoming Supreme Court decision concerning King v. Burwell, a lawsuit brought by republicans to continue their assault on America's poor.  This is akin to robbing a bank and later claiming you're not guilty because you lost the money.  Poetic justice?  Thune has been thoroughly ridiculed for his tweet.
Santorum and Thune are either incredibly stupid or lying through their teeth.  Their comments are endemic to today's republican party and either way, it should absolutely disqualify them from governing the American people.

Peace,
