For some reason this Malkin piece on Stupak cracked me up:
HASTTIGTAMSAMCO (Hrmm, after some thought I guess that acronym makes sense and might catch on). Well, you know what they say- SWARSOTTAJSASICFOWTHTAD (Sometimes wingnuts are stupid, other times they are just silly, and sometimes I can’t figure out what the hell they are doing).

I still can’t figure out why Stupak became the enemy. DIdn’t he force the evil Obama administration to make explicit anti-abortion language in an executive order? How did he end up in their sights?
But the wingnut mind works in mysterious ways…

I think they’d have to physically collide for a wingularity to occur. Sort of like if a piece of anti-matter smacked into actual matter.
But in their case they’re both anti-intelligent…so I’d guess if one of them were to smack into Albert Einstein…we’d have a wingularity…and every bit of intelligence within 2000 light years would collapse at a single point, eventually attained an unsustainable intelligence…at which point it would explode, sending out shockwaves of intelligence into the universe, and every puddle of primordial alien goo would become a sentient, living organism…and planet earth would be the dumbest place in the universe…sort of like a planet-wide 24/7 TeaParty rally.

Re: Scav
Ooohhh. That’s got to hurt, and the immediate “Well, it’s hardly surprising that there are individual documents of a seemingly incriminating nature which possibly show the Holy Father protecting child-rapists, but they have to be seen in the context of them not proving anything at all to fully appreciate how they don’t prove anything at all.” response should come with added glyphs to indicate gulps of terror and panic.
So, now Ratzinger’s defenders can’t* claim that he was actually fighting a long and noble war to expose the homosexual cabal that – if you listen to them – clearly and irrefutably took over every aspect of the Catholic Church that had any contact with child-rape claims sometime around whenever it’s most convenient to say they took over, but he kept it really, really quiet until now because, well, that’s just how traditionalist Popes roll.
* Can’t, as in, still obviously will carry on making stupid, mudraking arguments that this is all a Liberal Media hit-job on an innocent conservative hero. It’s not like we’re talking about people with any appreciation for the value of ‘truth’ here, is it?

@Martin:
I don’t know, Martin. I watched Stupak interviewed and he says the tea partiers aren’t from his district.
He says the tea party calls came from California and Texas on his health care vote. He’s a local and it’s a rural area. It’s a lot like where I live.
If Democrats can portray this like they did NY 24, as out of town operatives making this a national race, the locals will resent it.
That Grover Norquist group came in here once and tried to tell the locals how to vote in a House race, and tried to cast the race as a vote for fiscal conservatism. It failed, big time. People resented the interference.
It’s a tough seat to hold, but the tea partiers may be blowing it, by taking it away from the locals.
kay
@Martin:
I guess I assumed the tea partiers were going to blame Stupak’s retirement on the Lefty challenger.
They’re not. The national tea party group are running around crowing that they forced the local House member to resign.
I just don’t think that plays in rural areas. His district has the same make-up as mine: it’s 30% dems, 30% R’s and 30% Right-leaning independents. They pride themselves on that “independent” and they’re not real fond of outside groups.
