"Sideshow Bob" Hits the Panic Button

Thursday, October 1, 2009


This email from Del. Bob Marshall (R-Extreme Right Wingnuttia) is hilarious on many levels, including the (intentional?) typos like not capitalizing "Democratic" and dropping the "ic" from the end (common grammatical mistake by Republicans, probably intentional for their own weird reasons). Also, you gotta love the use! of! exclamation! points! in just about every! sentence! Third, isn't it great how "Sideshow Bob" - author of the infamous Virginia "marriage amendment," as well as crazy comments like "sometimes incest is voluntary" and (with regard to contraception) his remark about "making these co-eds chemical Love Canals for these frat house playboys in Virginia" - can "dish it out but can't take it," trying to turn himself into a poor victim of those mean, awful libruls? Ha.

Finally, and more substantively, there's "Sideshow Bob's" hysteria that his opponent - Major John Bell (ret.) - has been outraising him, outhustling him, outdebating him, and outclassing him. To such an extent, no less, that Marshall has "no choice but to appeal to you for help!" I mean, wow, what a concept - a political candidate asking his supporters for money. Who would ever have though of such a thing? Craaazy times we live in, huh? :)
