Thank You for Coming! I’ll See You in Hell!

Back in 2003, GOP Rep. Sue Myrick declared that the danger to America from convenience stores wasn’t their hot dogs, but their owners:

“You know, and this can be misconstrued, but honest to goodness [my husband] Ed and I for years, for 20 years, have been saying, ‘You know, look at who runs all the convenience stores across the country.’ Every little town you go into, you know?”

Well, heck, we were all running around with buttplugs stuck up our arseholes back then. Only Sue couldn’t let it go, doubling down last year with a foreword to WorldNetDaily’s Muslim Mafia book.

But it turns out her North Carolina district includes Terrorist-Americans, and when she invited them to a Town Hall meeting last week, she tried to clear up the misunderstanding:

Myrick took the opportunity Thursday to explain her 2003 comment casting suspicion on convenience store operators. She said it came after a high-profile case in Charlotte that tied cigarette-smuggling and money-laundering to Hezbollah, a Lebanese military organization that the United States has labeled a terrorist group.

“So I wasn’t off the wall,” she said. “It may have come across that way, but you have to put it in context.”

Well, of course. We might say the same thing about small-airplane pilots, using one example to demonstrate a universal threat. It just stands to reason.

Speaking as a small-plane pilot, I can categorically state, we are mad motherfuckers.

White = freedum
Brown = death from above

Not everything is based on racism, but we’re not taking smart people here.

@ManchuCandidate: Hail, Manchu.

BE-grudgingly? Really? Fucking retards.

@Benedick:
Just being a polite Cannuck.

Having dealt with folks from NC though work, I have to say Fucking Retards is close to the mark. It’s not the Southern Accent, it’s how think they’re hot stuff when they are neither hot nor have stuff.

But to be fair, if I lived next to SC all my life then I’d be pretty damn smug, too.

NC is in the cruelest level of incompetence, smart enough to know who sucks but not smart enough to actually do the job (you call them theatre critics.)

@IanJ:

God you are sexy, you gun-toting, plane-flying hunk of masculine, you.

I dont want to frighten her but back when I traveled to work I noticed that the same people who own the convenience stores are also buying every motel in the country.
try it and see.

In local news, today the DC Council voted unanimously to strip Marion Barry of all his committee assignments (it’s a step in the right direction) and tomorrow The Gay Marriage Menace begins in earnest! Hooray!

@mellbell: Hurricanes and earthquakes to follow.

@Benedick: Don’t forget the tsunamis!

@Capt Howdy: Not to mention the taxi drivers who take you from the airport to the convenience store to the motel. So many opportunities for Terror!

@SanFranLefty: Just caught up on the fact that you were in tsunami’s path. Glad to know you’re good.

@nojo: She’ll have something to worry about when Hezbollah starts running moonshine in a red muscle car with the confederate flag painted on top. Just some good ole’ boys…never meanin’ no harm…
