Do Republicans get away with idiocy because they attract pity? What do we do with rightwingers who, at their “Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Conference, which features speeches from the likes of Rand Paul, Chris Christie, and Herman Cain,” set up a urinal in which they can pee on the President?
Or is it that a whole political party in America has not been able to develop emotionally beyond their 9th birthday?
TMV Editor’s UPDATE: It turns out people are selling Obama face urinal targets (and apparently now a Hillary Clinton one, too.)
This represents the bankruptcy of American political discussion and a natural outgrowth of partisanship that feeds on, celebrates, and perpetuates personal hatred instead of spirited, serious political give-and-take. Kindly spare us the comment about Democrats do this and that — the issue is this story. And if Ds do it, they don’t get a pass — and it doesn’t negate crudity and empty-headedness of this. This was at a major conference. Talking about BRANDING.

If you call out the "Faith & Freedom Conference" for including Obama urinal cakes, well you're playing the race card. pic.twitter.com/YZovvqBPlj

My fav part of the Obama Urinal Cake story is of course they didn’t get them for the women…

@Nate_Hamilton Oh for… Yes, I'm sure someone broke into the convention and replaced all the urinal screens with Obama ones.

La cara de Obama en un urinal en una conferencia conservadora http://t.co/dIbrsBMXsb Qué desagradables son algunos.

Anyone willing to bet the Obama head in the urinal was a set up?

Hey you Obama voters feel like total stooges yet? Go lick a urinal to get Barack's bad taste outta your mouth. Might work for a little while

GOP Obama urinal cakes are a good metaphor for whole Presidency. They piss all over him and he just keeps smiling and cleaning up their mess
