Though I wonder if mocking closeted gay men (even bastards who opposes gay right like Graham) is proper.

29. Liberal Alaskans have quite a few names for our newest senator...
Sat Mar 28, 2015, 12:15 AM
Mar 2015

Afghan Dan, Ohio Dan, Cheechako Dan, and now since he signed Cotton's letter, Traitor Dan or Iran Dan. Don Young we just call "crazy" unless we're calling him Yon Dung. Murkowski is Princess Lisa (since her dad originally gave her the job) or sometimes Lease-A.

We used to call our previous governor (Sean Parnell) Seanoco Parnellips since he was formerly a lobbyist for ConocoPhillips and still had more loyalty to Big Oil than he did to Alaskans.

Of course, there were all the usual names for She Who Shall Not Be Named.

Nothing more we can say. That's THEIR 47%. The 47% our side is concerned with are the poor, the struggling middle class, and the generally overlooked because they're not rich, influential, and/or important. THEIR 47% are power-mad backstabbers, Sore Losermen, and TRAITORS.
