Homophobe senator loses website to

gay activist.

Paul Shepherd, a brain dead, Bible-thumping Idaho Senator. has put forth a non-binding resolution urging Congress to impeach federal judges who supposedly violate the Constitution by overturning state bans on same-sex marriages. While he was busy with this piece of business he failed to realize that his staff forgot to renew his website domain this week. So someone else did it for him.

A Reddit user who goes by the name TibitXimer noticed Shepherd’s campaign website domain was available, so he bought it and is soliciting suggestions for what to post there.

“First of all, things need to be very, very rainbow,” said a user called thehegelian. “Maybe you can turn it into a site where gay couples can submit photos of their weddings? Heh heh heh.”

“Perhaps we can find a gay Paul Shepherd somewhere in the USA, and the site can be ‘for him,’” said Reddit user PhillWithTwoLs. “That’d make it a valid use of the url.”

TibitXimer plans to post links to LGBT rights organizations and anti-hate groups such as the Southern Poverty Law Center.
