I’m used to republicans not making any sense politically, but this literally makes no sense.

What’s the saying? “Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool than to Speak and Remove All Doubt”? Well, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised this idiot never heard it.

Is that useless windbag Rohrbacher STILL in Congress? I can’t believe Orange County voters are stupid enough to continue reelecting him!

Moronic. Even his hatred is incoherent drivel.

"He is trying to recommend to us how we should feel about that faith.

Yes, he is! You know, show some tolerance and respect to other people. What your parents should have taught you when you were about five years old.

I can see how Rep. Rohrbacher’s mind works. Except I can’t

I’d also note that Rep. Rohrbacher’s faith and its prophet teaches one to love thy neighbor, without any caveats. Or at least the version of it I was raised in does.

I wish David Bowie was still amongst the living. He could toss off a fine ditty about this walking affront to simple human decency, a la Extras.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) says that Obama was “insulting every
American” when he urged the country not to support politicians who speak
derogatorily of the Muslim faith.
…
That is one seriously CONFUSED GOPer.
On consideration I think he was trying to say that Obama was insulting Islamophobes and that true Americans are Islamophobes.
