GQP keeps talking a big game about how fearless they are. but they are scared of words. i don’t want their brand of freedum.
Aww, hell no!
And colors, apparently. And, well, just about everything…
Love the Miley/Dolly song, it’s got a wonderful old school vibe to it. But you can’t post that one and not post Kermit, damn it.
That’s how horrible these Xtianists are: opposed to both the Muppets and Dolly Parton.
Oh no you didn’t!
Do NOT piss off Dolly Parton.
Face it, if you are on the wrong side of a Dolly Parton song, you’re a shitty person.
And Kermie, for the luvva Pete! These guys need to be much more careful choosing their enemies.
Someone on the wrong side of the Muppets is just dead to me.
As somebody who personally knows school teachers and other folks from the Waukesha area, I get a lot of the news from that area of Wisconsin. And wow are there a lot of fascists.
They must really hate this song, as it has two of the GOP’s least favorite words prominently in it: reading and rainbow.
I live in Kenosha and visit the Milwaukee area quite often. Two of my metamours live in Waukesha. As soon as I saw the headline for the article I had a sinking feeling I knew exactly which of our cities this was going to be featured. Confirmed: Waukesha is a real craphole. (Although obviously not everyone there is part of that.)
