Sick and Twisted GOP Fucktard Ted Bathurst Allegedly Robs from the Dead

The Republican instinct for looting knows no limits, no boundaries of decency, as demonstrated by the new low in GOP ethics demonstrated by Delaware County, PA GOP thug Theodore Bathurst, recently arrested for embezzling the burial escrow accounts of his funeral home’s clients.

The Republican mayor of Glenolden, PA was arrested on Friday, August 21, for looting some $78,ooo in burial escrow accounts from a funeral parlor operation he sold in 2007, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The Inquirer reported today:

As you know, Paultards don’t like rules and regulations:

BOISE, Idaho (AP) – State Republican Party leader Challis McAffee doesn’t have permit issued in Idaho to carry a concealed weapon. The 33-year-old was charged with assault with a deadly weapon this week after an alleged dispute with a homeowner while McAffee was documenting homes where mortgages are delinquent.

If this guy doesn’t do serious jail time, I will eat my shoes.

Talk-show host Sean Hannity, a vocal opponent of Barack Obama’s policies, said today he would not rule out a bid for the presidency in 2012…

“I’ve never made a decision in my life without — whatever destiny God has you’ve got to fulfill it,” he said. “I’m not sure that’s my destiny.”

The Chief Electoral Officer has released the preliminary result of the Citizens Initiated Referendum on the question ‘Should a smack as part of good parental correction be a criminal offence in New Zealand?’

87% voted against it.
No word yet on whether this will allow me to smack other people’s children, but I’m buying a plane ticket just in case.

Oh my:

BOISE, Idaho — An Idaho Republican Party leader who helped oust the state GOP chairman in 2008 faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after an altercation escalated while he photographed a home with a delinquent mortgage.

Challis McAffee, 33, the GOP chairman from the Boise suburb of Garden City and one of 231 voting members of the Idaho Republican Central Committee, was arrested after being accused of pointing a gun at the homeowner. He was released from Ada County jail on Thursday after family members and friends posted a portion of the $50,000 bond.

And get this – he’s a Paultard and a Teabagger. Yahtzee!

It’s been a busy week in matriarchal feces-flinging at the First Family, perhaps revealing pent-up resentment at a generation of jabs at Barbara Bush, from whom Shrub inherited his testicles.

Thursday’s fracas stemmed from a weekend post by Townhall fabulist Kristen Atkinson, whose now-deleted (but still cached) missive managed to take down the First Granny a peg without mentioning Nancy Reagan’s astrologer:

The Obama White House is abuzz with talk of witchcraft by first grandmother, 72-year-old Marian Robinson, who lives in the White House residence. A close friend of Michelle Obama says the president is furious at his mother-in-law after learning that she was practicing Santeria, an African spirit cult, in the White House.

We’ve been known to practice Sangria ourselves on festive occasions, so we’re not sure what the problem is. But Atkinson only made things worse for herself after complaining to warblogger-edited Wonkette that she is not to be trifled with:

I posted a very serious article recently in Townhall.com about witchcraft in the White House, and later realized that your website had made a farce out of it.

And there we’re inclined to agree. You can’t make a farce out of posts like Atkinson’s. All you can do is celebrate them as such.
