They Said It!

At my new (getting older) job, in my capacity as "webmaster," I am blessed with a torrential flood of spam and mailing list email to my several monitored email accounts. It's a hoot, I tell ya.

The webmaster account is subscribed to several Republican National Committee email lists, not because my predecessor in this job was a righty nutbag - this place is thankfully free of those - but I suspect because he/she/it was "keeping an eye on the enemy" or something. This is also why I don't unsubscribe from the list. That, and it's often heartening to see how ridiculously low the RNC will stoop.

Case in point: A series of emails they send out, sometimes as many as 5-10 a day, entitled "They Said It!" which purport to catch prominent and not-so-prominent Democrats saying embarrassing or hypocritical things. It's accompanied by a very amusing drawing of a donkey wearing glasses (implying, I suppose, that Democrats either have bad eyesight or are, gasp!, nerds) with a stream of bleeped swearing coming out of his mouth. That's right, straight from the party of Dick "Go Fuck Yourself" Cheney.

Here's today's:

RNC Spam

OOH! SNAP! They totally nailed him on that! Can you believe it?! The presumptive vice-presidential nominee admits that he doesn't know what he would have done in a hypothetical past!! How do they possibly expect to win a presidential election with that kind of talk?
