Boehner won 168-27. Blunt won with 147-57. This wasn’t even close.

Those who think such overwhelming majorities of the elected Republicans are so completely out of step should be thinking instead why they themselves are pretending to be Republicans.

Obviously, Boehner and Blunt represent the Republican mainstream.

I too was surprised the GOP didn’t pick somebody different for at least one of the top 2 posts. It seemed like a logical thing to do.

Other than calling him names like sissy, and a bunch of other, yes, references to his girlish behavior, the rants are quite balanced and Ace is firmly on the side that the tasering was uncalled for.

So are you mad about the language? The approval of the tasering (which is by no means the consensus)? Or the fact that a Moslem student decided that his rights were being violated by being asked to follow the exact same rules as every other student?

I think everyone should check out this link and see the kind of violent and homophobic rants people are making at Ace of Spades HQ regarding the UCLA student being tasered in the library.
