Anyone wanna disagree with this? [View all]

Republicans want a good Christian be in the WH - so they nominate a Mormon.

Republicans claim ACA is unAmerican - so they nominate the man who inspired it.

Republicans feel an elitist shouldn't be in the WH - so they nominate the man whose picture is next to the word.

Republicans accuse Obama of being inexperienced - so they nominate the man who refuses to talk about his experience.

Republicans demand transparency from the President - so they nominate the man who turned paper shredding into an Olympic event.

Republicans cry about having to pay for others - so they nominate the man who throughout his entire career, made his living off other peoples money.

And they wonder why no one understands them.
