Arizona GOPer Compares Not Letting Legislature Throw Out Election Results To Lynching

That must be some fabulous risotto to reach that level of comparison.

Well, this one time I had it in this place in San Diego it was a pretty good meal. But see, they think if I can have it and they can’t, because I got vaccinated and they didn’t, then they’re being discriminated against and that’s so unfair waaaaaah. It’s like putting a yellow star on people. And then herding them into cattle cars, taking them across Europe, putting them on a train platform and sending some to be worked to death over time and others to be sealed in a huge chamber and gassed to death, men, women, children, all.

@danny

He was asked in an interview by a local television station about what he meant by “1958-style voting.” He said that mail-in ballots absent voter ID was the largest source of fraud in the last election.

So he didn’t answer the question, right? Just a talking point that had nothing to do with the question.

I assume there was no follow-up by the inquisitor.

It’s like if you want some risotto con funghi

Mmmm risotto. Okay, I know what I’m gonna fix for dinner now.

[mattinpa]

Did you make that just now? Because I assure you that’s a new one on me.

There you are on the sidewalk, and there they are, inside, eating risotto, and they’ve singled you out for no risotto and that’s basically the Holocaust.

[danny]

I don’t mind if the coloreds vote, but they should treat the vote with respect and not whoop and holler and carry on like they do.

If we stop teaching historical racism and the Holocaust in America’s classrooms, how will future Republicans know what false equivalencies to use for their anti-vax and pro-fascist Pink Fragility gaffes?

Funnily enough I’m mulling making gumbo but I’m hesitating because the damn oil-flour roux needs about 15 minutes of constant stirring.

Also, can we just take a minute to appreciate the organizational jujutsu here?

that Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers (R) had effectively sunk his bill by assigning it to all 12 House committees for consideration.

That’s the kind of legislative close combat that would have brought a smile to LBJ’s face.

It is a procedural version of “get that shit out of here and keep it out.”

[danny]

Nothing but stunned silence.

[mattinpa]

Good point. They’ll be rhetorically crippled. So unfair!

Thanks alot! Now I’m gonna have a constant craving for gumbo all day.

Now you know that’s a signature lolcat graphic style and now you know we know.

[osprey]

So a quick look on Professor Google indicates that making a lot of roux and refrigerating or freezing it for later is an option. Doesn’t help you today, but makes the next batch quicker…

And dudes with 1880 cosplay moustaches say the dumbest, most criminal things. (I guess they all have active fantasy lives involving being cattle barons or something?)

[dr_coyote]

Couldn’t help think of this one, and then I saw the handlebar and bleached-blond hair on Fillmore, and I thought,

[becca656]

They won’t need the false equivalencies because we will all be assimilated by the Borg.

[emiliano4]

This is so obvious. The more scared they get, the rhetoric gets derpier.
