Hero of the Week

Mr. Clarence Dupnik

The Pima County, Arizona, sheriff told KGUN9 News in Tucson that state Senate Bill 1070 to deter illegal immigration is a "racist law." He said he has no intention of complying with it.

Dupnik called the law "disgusting" and "unnecessary." He knows he could get sued for failing to comply with the law - a risk, he says he's willing to take.

Welcome to your Waterloo reptiles.

Michael Kelley a GOPisDEAD reader was kind enough to send this illustration to let us know what he thinks of this bullshit Senate Bill 1070. Thanks Michael for your contribution.

UPDATE: Racial Profiling Gets GOP Backing

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed a bill Friday that requires police in her state to determine whether a person is in the U.S. legally – a measure critics say will foster racial profiling.

The law requires immigrants to carry their alien registration documents at all times and requires police to question people if there is reason to suspect that they're in the country illegally. It also targets those who hire illegal immigrant day laborers or knowingly transport them.

theGOPisDEAD will go out on a limb here [NOT], and say get ready to be fucked with if you are a person of color. The GOP is backing this legislation knowing fucking well Latinos in this country will have placed on their collective backs; a giant, racist, piece of GOP shit bulls-eye.

This coming from the party that loves their cheap labor...this will be a spectacle to behold. Sphere: Related Content

Trade in Your Chickens for Some Healthcare

Last week, Nevada GOP Senate candidate Sue Lowden suggested that people who could not afford health insurance should "barter" with their doctors. Despite criticism and mockery about the ridiculousness of such an argument, Lowden recently doubled down on her approach...watch this crazy right-wing doh-doh-bird make her argument for some good ol' common barter with a doc.

I'm in it for the SHEEPLE

First-class commercial air travel for two or a private jet -- "must be a Lear 60 or larger" -- from Alaska to California and back. A deluxe hotel suite "registered under an alias." And two unopened bottles of still water with "bendable straws."

That's what former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin wanted from a California state college foundation as part of her speaking agreement, according to a draft of a confidential contract obtained by students.

theGOPisDEAD would like to ask the GOP's largest funders when they are going to put a fucking cork in the hole that is sinking the proverbial ship? These money grubbing leeches are spending cash like it's water gushing from Niagara Falls. Will the spending trend stop? Will the party of fiscal irresponsibility close the shop doors, and foreclose? Will funders get sick of sending their hard earned blood money to these lavish spending, lesbian club patrons, of nihilistic doomdom? We doubt it...but one can only hope the well runneth dry.

But, we all know that Palin is a regular ol' Joe...carrying main street America's torch all the way to the bank for them. Wink* Sphere: Related Content

The Memorial to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Needs Your Help...

This memorial fund to Dr. King needs some more help. Dr. King's work was for people everywhere to be treated with dignity and attain their potential; also needed in the fight for immigration reform. -Donna Poisl

This message has been brought to you by Lowell Dempsey, BuildTheDream.org

The month of April marks the 42nd anniversary of the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. We are commemorating the life and work of Dr. King by creating a memorial in our nation's capital. The Washington, DC, Martin Luther King, Jr., National Memorial will honor his life and contributions to the world through non violent social change.

I've put together this blogger-friendly micro-site to help get the message out - there are videos, photos, banners, and even a web toolbar that, when used, donates money to the creation of the memorial: http://mlkmemorialnews.org

After years of fund raising, the memorial is now $14 million away from its $120 million goal. This will be more than a monument to a great humanitarian, the National Memorial will be a place for visitors from around the world to share the spirit of love, freedom, and peace.

Junior Florida Republican Party staffer had $1.3 million charged to party credit card

She was a 25-year-old junior staffer when the Florida Republican Party gave her an American Express card.

"Over the next 2½ years, nearly $1.3 million in charges wound up on Melanie Phister's AmEx — $40,000 at a London hotel, and nearly $20,000 in plane tickets for indicted former House Speaker Ray Sansom, his wife and kids, for starters. Statements show thousands spent on jewelry, sporting goods and in one case $15,000 for what's listed as a month-long stay at a posh Miami Beach hotel, but which the party says was a forfeited deposit.

The credit card records, obtained by the St. Petersburg Times and Miami Herald, offer the latest behind-the-scenes look at extravagant and free-wheeling spending by the party touting fiscal restraint. Not only did certain elite legislative leaders have their own party credit cards to spend donors' money with little oversight, but Phister's records show these leaders also liberally used an underling's card — without her knowledge, she says."

Atheist to the World: Put the Pope on a Rope

Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, two of the world's most prominent atheist intellectuals, are seeking means to try the pope for crimes against humanity,

Last month Dawkins wrote a scathing article for the Washington Post in which he called the pope:

A leering old villain in a frock, who spent decades conspiring behind closed doors for the position he now holds; a man who believes he is infallible and acts the part; a man whose preaching of scientific falsehood is responsible for the deaths of countless AIDS victims in Africa; a man whose first instinct when his priests are caught with their pants down is to cover up the scandal and damn the young victims to silence.

Hitchens told the Sunday Times of London: "This man is not above or outside the law. The institutionalized concealment of child rape is a crime under any law and demands not private ceremonies of repentance or church-funded payoffs, but justice and punishment."

NEWSFLASH: theGOPisDEAD Endorses PALIN/BACHMANN-2012!

Okay, this is a side-note and funny observation. theGOPisDEAD happened to watch this little shin-dig the other night and noticed that FOX NEWS cut the lights down real low during the interview with the two nutbags. Now I know we are a little batshit crazy ourselves here, but it did strike us as a little funny.

LOL, bare with us. As the cameraman scanned the crowd, it looked like a nice mix of white folk, black folk, and other peoples of color. :) Now stay with us....ROFL...at times it actually appeared to be a culturally diverse representation. BUT!!! Upon a closer inspection of what we thought our eyes were seeing at this KLAN rally, was in fact an illusion created by the casting of shadows across a sea of white faces. We thinks...FAUX NEWS dimmed those fucking lights on purpose. But, you be the judge:

BEFORE OUR PRO PHOTOSHOP EXPERTS GOT A HOLD OF THE IMAGE

Well; it was a fun observation. Sphere: Related Content

Newt Heads Southern GOP Leadership Conference

NEW ORLEANS (Associated Press) -- Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a potential presidential candidate in 2012, called Barack Obama on Thursday "the most radical president in American history" who oversees a "secular, socialist machine."

Gingrich reminded conservative activists why he was one of the nation's most polarizing leaders in the 1990s, opening the Southern Republican Leadership Conference with a biting assessment of Obama's policies.

"The most radical president in American history has now thrown down the gauntlet to the American people: 'I run a machine. I own Washington and there's nothing you can do about it,'" Gingrich said. He urged his fellow Republicans to stop what he called Obama's "secular, socialist machine."

All we have to say here at theGOPisDEAD is...

NEWT/PALIN 2012...baby all the way to the fucking crazy farm.

Bob McDonnell Apology Not Accepted

Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell apologized Wednesday for leaving out any reference to slavery in his recent proclamation designating April as Confederate History Month, calling it a "major omission."

"There were any number of aspects to that conflict between the states. Obviously, it involved slavery. It involved other issues. But I focused on the ones I thought were most significant for Virginia."

"The failure to include any reference to slavery was a mistake, and for that I apologize to any fellow Virginian who has been offended or disappointed," McDonnell said in a written statement.

When will white middle aged men in this country stop trying to bring honor to an American holocaust? It will probably happen the moment that racism ends in this country...FUCKING NEVER. They show obtuse contempt toward the descendants of slavery because they cannot forget. The irony of McDonnell forgetting to mention slavery in the same breath as the civil war is repugnantly hateful; detestable; loathsome: and an abominable slight to say the least. So they want America to see their freak southern flag fly with pride, yet want those who lost entire generations of family to pure evil to just fade away in their memory's past. To even warrant that request ought to come with consequences...like a good ol' house burning, or noose around the neck while dangling from a local oak tree on the courthouse lawn.

It's sort of like the Catholic church who is currently demonizing the media for uncovering insurmountable evidence that its clergy has been sexually abusing children for decades if not longer.

The disgusting outrage they display because of being caught is a mind-fuck indeed. But don't let these creeps fool you, because they know what they are doing. Manipulating the public psyche; like one of their rape victims, who they believe deserves it. They fucking rape the mind again, and again, and again, until the victim denotes regret for causing the abusers so much pain, "I'm sorry I made you rape me."

theGOPisDEAD would like to tell McDonnell to fuck off in person, but I'm sure we'll never get that chance, like the millions of people who shed blood for his short memory.

So we give a big FUCK YOU to McDonnell...and that's from the heart. Sphere: Related Content

Wrong number: GOP pitch lists phone-sex hotline

The best thing the Republican Party can say about this week is, it's nearly over.

First came news that the Republican National Committee paid $1,946 for a gathering at a sex-themed Hollywood club, which a group of young Republicans had visited without RNC approval. The money is to be paid back.

Now it turns out the RNC inadvertently listed a phone-sex number on a fund-raising letter sent to potential donors. People who tried to call the committee were instead offered "live, one-on-one talk with a nasty girl" for $2.99 a minute.

I know...right?! This shit sounds made up...even theGOPisDEAD couldn't have devised a better week for these fear mongering fucktards. But that's the thing about karma, [if you believe] it is a bitch. We're more of the what-comes-around-goes around-motherfucker type...and this week has been intoxicating watching the pejorative fallout as the family values party puts ten coats of paint on those white picket fences of theirs. No amount of latex in the world can cover up the rotting wood underneath. Sphere: Related Content

Major Conservative Says Do Not Donate to RNC

Nothing like watching reptiles eat their own...

"I've hinted at this before, but now I am saying it - don't give money to the RNC," Perkins wrote in his column. "If you want to put money into the political process, and I encourage you to do so, give directly to candidates who you know reflect your values. Better yet, become a member of FRC Action and learn about the benefits it offers, including participating in the FRC Action PAC which can support candidates who will advance faith, family and freedom!"

Congressman Grayson Unloading a Full Can...O'Whoopass

"We have now reached the level of absurdity. The right has fermented a national nervous break-down. They keep pushing the panic button on their followers over and over and over again; and try to get them stoked on hatred and fear, and they've succeeded..."



Grayson's 5 year old takes a phone call...and is threatened with violence.


Two dudes walked up to me the other day, and one of them punches me square in the teeth. He then frantically dials 911 and is balling his eyes out, screaming that I just attacked him. The police come...and I am arrested as the two describe how they were victimized. A true mind-fuck.

How to become a victim... Sphere: Related Content
