    Can right wing NUTTERY get any NUTTIER??
    Hello:

    Apparently, it CAN. Kansas lawmaker introduces bill to permit teachers to hit children hard enough to bruise.

    You might want to read it first, ex.

    Gail Finney, a Democratic Kansas lawmaker from Kansas, introduced a law that would expand Kansas's already broad protection for teachers who hit their students,
    At least they got her political affiliation in there and let us know definitely she's from Kansas.

    Next?

    Hello again, Steve:

    Ain't nobody around here said that a Democrat can't be a right wing nutjob. And, I called it a BILL.

    The intent was clearly to impugn us, we had nothing to do with it. She has an average rating of 4.5 from a conservative group, 25% from the NRA and 100% from the AFL-CIO. She's no right-winger.

    As someone who attended public schools... there are some kids that need beaten a lot more. Lord knows they got no discipline at home.

    Speaking of nutty and nuttier, the Hollywood moonbat squad is making the rounds to visit their Venezuelan mecca again. First Danny Glover, now Sean Penn is seen taking a selfie with the dictator:

    Naomi Campbell and Kevin Spacey can't be far behind. No comment from Penn yet on the riots, food rationing and lack of toilet paper in paradise but I'm sure it's our fault.

    I think the idea is to demonize the opposition at every possible opportunity.

    Those "celebrties" offer the best reasons to allow and even promote Piracy of movies and music... because it takes money out of their pockets. Take enough out and there might be room for some common sense to creep back in. Assuming they ever had any.

    and you do this how? I would have thought a failed election attempt might qualify

    Failure on the national level doesn't always translate to failure on the local level. Indeed we have some really hardcore politicians that face no repercussions from failure of government. Those that shut our government down last year went back to be heroes in the districts they come from and that changed the very definition of failure.

    Nah, that's Harry Reid's job. Aren't you the least bit curious why Democrats are reading Dr. Seuss at all night global warming fear mongering festivals, attacking private citizens from the Senate floor or seem more concerned with banning the word "bossy" while women are being persecuted in Iran and elsewhere, and Venezuelans who want toilet paper are being shot? Or why so-called human rights champions like Sean Penn are palling around with the guy behind it while the people suffer?

    Both sides are very good at it. Perhaps it is the case that one side has made it an art form.

    No wonder so many problems get solved. Keeps SCOTUS busy anyway

    I often wonder if there arn't bigger issues.

    Like why shouldn't the people of Crimea vote to change allegiences? and who's business is it anyway? You want democracy, that is an expression of democracy.

    Why does an airliner disappear without trace? they had to get rid of the red herrings before they started to tell the truth
