Georgia Republican Who Wanted Drug Testing For Welfare Recipients Gets DUI

[Dakine10 5,452]

If it's not related to welfare, then why is this thread here? Welfare is clearly in the thread title.

I think that's the same title the linked article uses, which is acceptable.

I do agree though, I think Hypocrite Jackass Georgia Republican Who Wanted Drug Testing Gets DUI would be a better title.

Quote from the linked article:

"Rep. Kip Smith, the Georgian Republican sponsor of Georgia House Bill 464, which would "require random drug testing" for citizens on public assistance, found himself drunker than Lindsey Lohan (only ugly and with no talent) and apparently was arrested friday morning on a DUI."

There's some real unbiased journalism for ya. Actually after reading the article, I'm surprised they didn't go with your title. Your title would've fit the substance of the article.

For doing a job.

Come on, we know public employees don't actually work.

I guess thanks to direct deposit, they probably don't even have to show up.

You know it.

The do as we say, most certainly not as we do party struck again, and this level hypocrisy might just shift the tectonic plates and reveal a whole new world for the rational among us (or whatever is left).

I love when things like this happen. Almost as funny when a strictly anti-gay politician comes out and ends up having a boyfriend on the side. Or someone who preaches about "traditional family values" has a mistress. Good times.

Agree and it happens on both sides of the aisle...

Welfare is seen as a political issue by most people on the right!

I wasn't saying it wasn't political, I was responding to Dakine asking why Welfare was in the thread title!

It's because Hillary did the pool boy or something like that. We've been through this in the other thread where this came up. Bottom line, RWNJs simply still hate Clinton.

Not sure how this turned into a thread about the Clintons, but I'll bite. Republicans need to move on if they want any hope for the future. Bill Clinton left office in 2001 last time I checked. RWNJ's control the party. So until they nominate someone that is somewhat middle of the road, they'll never win a general election. Look at McCain 2000 versus 2008. McCain had to pander to the RWNJs in the 2008 primaries to win the nomination, and Obama hit him up side the head with it in the 2008 general election.

Demographics are changing rapidly in this country. Someone needs to let the Republicans know.

Policies do not get you elected. Qualifications do not get you elected. Good speeches, nice smiles, negative campaign ads, and empty promises win elections. The American electorate is stupid that way. The 3 year presidential campaign doesn't help much either.
