Thoughtless for the Day

It's rarely that one sees the name "Rick Santorum" in the same sentence as the word "think" (unless, of course, that sentence is "Most people with IQ's above 80 think that Rick Santorum is an asshole") but, early last week, articles began to appear about how, after his disgraceful loss (as in "700,000 plus disgraceful loss") in the PA senatorial race, Rick Santorum had surfaced as a member of a (you'll want to get a screen shot of this for posterity) think tank.

Just let that sink in.

Rick Santorum has been hired by a think tank. That's like finding out that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been elected to the board of directors for the B'nai B'rith. X-treme Jesus on a snowboard with whores, what think tank with any actual thinkers would hire Rick Santorum? [OK, maybe the think tank in charge of picking the village idiot for the Renaissance Faire.] Apparently none, because, as it turns out Rick was hired by the vaguely named Ethics and Public Policy Center (".... established in 1976 to clarify and reinforce the bond between the Judeo-Christian moral tradition and the public debate over domestic and foreign policy issues…" Yee Haw!) to helm something called the …holy shit, can this be real?... "America's Enemies" program.

To really appreciate Scrotorum's take on the appointment, it's best to combine his statements with those from the profiles on the Bad Girls Club website:

"In these perilous and uncertain times when i was at a prparty and a girl starts to look at me funny and i start to fight her 4 no reson at all [Princessmo], I believe it is critical that we define the threats that confront America: drinkin, smokin, skate boardin, chillin, starbucks [Xbadxgirlx]. Without a clear definition and precise understanding of our enemies we cannot fight effectively and our own citizens become divided. Ppl who do that are ignorant aggrivations.[bethky20] It is my hope that the America's Enemies program at EPPC will help the American people -- including our leaders -- understand and communicate with clarity, honesty, and consistency the enemies we face and the complex and enormous threat that they pose to our lives and the freedoms we all enjoy and people gyratin on the dance floor with some booty shakin! [Btb4 Ripsi]."

Hey, if you stop by the Bad Girls Club website, don't forget to go to "Find Members" and search for "Euipides". You'll be glad that you did.
