The "Clever" Humor of the Far Right

The Texas GOP (like Texas doesn't *already* have enough of a knuckle-dragger rep, guys? Really?) disavows any knowledge of this button being sold at their convention:



Looks like the GOP ought to have the ignorant racist vote sewn up. And while that might *seem* to be a healthy demographic in the United States, I'm not sure there are enough of them to grant an electoral victory.

Or, y'know... figure out how to work something that requires thumbs.

I'm trying not to get cocky here, really... but with the Obama machine talking about a 50-state game and raising voter participation, involving three or four different electoral maps that could carry them to victory, and McCain talking like a guy who has early stage Alzheimer's...

Well, it's hard not to be a bit optimistic.
