Let it be known to all people that I’ve repeatedly described Rand Paul as Barbie-esque for months, if not years…

But, but, but Barbie’s are hot! Don’t all “normal” women want to be seen as totally plastic and hot? It’s a compliment to “normal” women, just not those angry feminist types. /snark off

Not just a coincidence that most conservatives are complete dullards.

totally plastic and empty headed. And nothing more but objects.

He knows perfectly well it is offensive, that is why he uses it. This was nothing but trolling.

As a slightly off on a tangent subject though,there is a hilarious Carl Hiassen story where one of the characters has an actual barbie fetish. He keeps a barbie doll in his pocket and hires two blonde girls to be his real life barbies. Of course it goes horribly wrong for him when they get bored and decide to go goth instead. Sick Puppy is the book :smile:

On the subject of women: Any woman who votes for the repubs is a traitor to her gender. History will be very unkind to them. This is not about any one woman’s political beliefs.
It’s who we are as a country. Wake up women. We only got the vote 90 years ago. We couldn’t even get credit cards in our own names until the 1970s. Repubs just want to drag us all back to the 1950s. We are individuals just like men. Erickson and his ilk need to go and find country that degrades and controls women. US women will not stand for repubs to control us.

Heck, it wasn’t that long ago that married women weren’t allowed to own property in their name in Texas. Only their husbands could.

"He admitted that he should not have called former Supreme Court Justice David Souter a “child molester.”

Erickson didn’t call Souter a “child molester.” He called Souter a “goat-fucking child molester.”

Personally, I think Erick Erickson is a pig-screwing pedophile. I don’t have any evidence that he is, but it feels right so I’m running with it.

Which US women are you talking about? There are tens of millions of American women who enthusiastically vote for the GOP and its misogynistic policies. They’re like Log Cabin Republicans.

Ultimately, It’s all about religion—the GOP is the de facto theocratic party of Evangelical Christianism, and the women on that side of the ledger are going to vote overwhelmingly for the GOP.

Does Eric Son Of Erickson find “Fat Ginger Hitler?” offensive? No?

I shall carry on referring to him as such on Twitter. I would have regardless.

“She self-promotes as a Human Barbie Doll.”

Does she take C or D batteries? Or does she plug into a wall socket?

Eric Son Of Erickson doesn’t need to find a new country to live in. He needs to find a 12 Gauge to shove in his fucking mouth.

If he or his ilk ever called my wife or daughter “Abortion Barbie,” I’d beat the fucking shit out of him and piss on his quivering body.
