Not Gonna Be Nice: The Mother Fuckers Are Wrong



Via Tom Sullivan at Hullabaloo:

Doctor Zoom at Wonkette crystallized the absurdity:
Of course U.S. America should take in refugees. It’s our fucking job. The alternative is to leave them stuck in hell, where they will either die or become radicalized against the United States. Or else we might as well replace the plaque on that nice welcoming statue in New York Harbor with one that reads, “Sucks to be you.” The lesson of World War II was supposed to be “Never Again,” not “leave ’em to die because they’re scary foreigners with the wrong religion.”

If only they weren't so very wrong, so very often, perhaps we could take the fear-mongering politicians seriously.

Republican America is mean, narrow, ill-informed, bigoted, angry, self-destructive ... and incredibly well-armed.
