Salute the flag and shit on the constitution and they think we won't notice.

Fuck their culture war. I'm sick of prancing hypocrites pointing their fingers at the rest of us.

Oh, and I'll invite all those soft, pink creatures hyperventilating on Pox to start training to take her place.

Yeah, right, like any of them would know which end of an ordinary hammer to use to bang in a nail.

and doesn't resemble one at all, which is why I specified "sordinary."

Republicans are also Pecksniffian.. That's another good one to familiarize oneself with, Dickens and Moliere were both wickedly accurate when it came to a certain type of common scold.

Tartuffe was so accurate, Moliere had to fight to get the play put on, the RCC tried to suppress it. Fortunately, the people loved it and small productions sprouted up all over the place. Dickens had a far easier time when he wrote about Mr. Pecksniff.
