As some of you know I used to belong, long, long ago before some of you were born even, to the GOP. I left the party for many different reasons I will not go into them all here. However I will mention one -- It was taken over by many homophobic sexist twits who would get a 'laugh' at this, in the email I was sent by an apolitical friend this morning.

More after the break
The friend who sent this knows nothing about politics, in fact she admits this. She is ignorant on all things political and calls/emails me about anything related not just to politics but news events in general. So when she sent me something political in nature... well I knew I was not in for something about policy.
I sent back the following reply:
It shows why Republican men are the way they are...treating women and society like things and not people that they can use and abuse and that are there for their pleasure and taking. Plus if you look at those people could you imagine spending time with any of the GOP women? Ann? Yikes! For 5 minutes? She is more insecure about her sexuality and views than anyone I've ever seen on tv.
Sarah? Her voice would drive me to drink and give me a headache before her political ideology ever could. So give me the perhaps less attractive on the outside (which is debatable), I'd rather have the intelligence and wit, and what matters.
Ok....back once again.
This is why I left the GOP. Am I saying all members of the GOP would agree that this is funny or would want this associated with their organization? Of course not. However I think with the anti-choice, anti-gay, anti-women feel for the party this type of 'humor' is a natural out-growth and if not felt by many in the party it is a natural out-growth of it. It is beyond disgusting in my view and I felt the need to bring it up because it irritates me.
