Horrible Thoughts About Terri Schiavo

I shudder at the thought of putting this out in public.
I sometimes think that one solution to the political craziness in America is personally attacking Republican activists.
And I mean real, hardcore, heavy-duty attacks.
You’re a Republican, and you’re sleeping around? In the name of family values, we tell your wife. And your neighbors.
You’re in favor of renewing restrictions on civil liberties? In the name of public safety, we publish everything publicly known about you on the web. Maybe even a few interviews with a few former friends and colleagues about what a jerk you are.
I know someone who is a Republican activist who is divorced. He put his kids in a special school because they have a few problems. It’s not their fault, and it’s probably not his fault. Hey, he’s probably a good father. But I feel so isolated from folks like him and his ilk.
I don’t think I would feel much guilt if I said to him “Hey, you are a real stupid fuck, and since you’re telling the Shiavos how to run their lives, why don’t we take your kids from you since you obviously fucked them up?”
Publicly.
Repeatedly.
