Part of the profits from the sales of Jelly Belly candies go to pay off Republican politicians. Yuck. Who wants that kind of sour association in their mouths on Easter morning?

Santorum Suicide By Gasoline

Peregrin Wood 3/24/2012

http://irregulartimes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/gassuicide.jpg

It’s strange to me that Rick Santorum would choose to use this particular image in a campaign ad, because what the picture shows is suicide through the means of gasoline. It looks to me like a statement that our dependence upon gasoline is killing our society. That’s a message that doesn’t support Santorum’s freak out about gasoline prices. It suggests that we all need to relax, walk away from the gasoline pump, and simply drive our cars less when the price of gasoline is high.

How can anyone expect a soooper genius such Newt Gingrich to be able to express ideas so titanic in their scale that they would cause the spontaneous explosion of Americans’ skulls if they were to be transmitted in their pure form? It would be unethical!

If money isn’t really important to the Romneys, why have they collected so much of it? Why are they hoarding their wealth, instead of giving it away to people who need it?
