IL-05 is Rahm Emanuel's old seat. A special election will be conducted next week to fill it.
Meet Rosanna Pulido, the Repub nominee. Leader of her state's Minuteman chapter. The granddaughter of a Mexican farmer, she says that stealing is part of Mexican culture.
And, given the state of play in the Repub party lately, it goes without saying that Pulido is some wingnut whack job. But the bonus is that she's a prolific freeper. Join me after the jump for some of her choice postings, won't you?
Posting as "chicagolady", the Repub nominee for IL-05 has come up with a number of real doozies which - laughingly - accurately reflect the GOP of today. Here goes:
-, Barack Obama will sell blacks back into slavery.
-, Pulido will give her guns to liberals "bullets first."
-, Says the Muslims at prayer remind her of dogs smelling buts (sic).
-, Pulido promotes illegal drug prescriptions from unlicensed people while trying to get elected to Congress and be responsible for the laws of our land.
-, "Thats (sic) to (sic) bad. I AM a bible thunper who likes to tell everyone how to live their lives,...(post 24 to the linked thread).
-, Pulido belives in gay indoctrination (post 3 of this link).
-, Matt Lauer is a menace to society because he's a liberal.
Public hat tip and big props to Rosanna Pulido is a freeper.
This is the kind of person you get running for government when you hate government. When you think government is "the problem", you have no respect for the institution and you fill it with Brownies, Pulidos, graduates from the University of Falwell, etc.
Somewhere out there, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, FDR, JFK - and a host of greats who led our government and country are rolling in their graves.
As a people, we tend to believe that we're part of greatest country on Earth. What does it say about the state of the Repub party that the people they nominate to RUN this, the greatest country on Earth, come from the stock of the Rosanne Pulidos and company.
Have they no sense of shame?
