The Republican Party is Eric Cartman.

Not a pregnant teenager or even an American; but a ginger.

The following is a comment about a New York Times article regarding Sarah Palin's 17-year old pregs daughter:

"The Republican Party is Eric Cartman. Specifically the episode where Cartman rips on “ginger kids” and then wakes up to find he has become one (as part of a prank to get him to learn his lesson). Instead of learning his lesson, he goes on a “Red Power” rampage and threatens to kill all non-Gingers…until he finds out he isn’t one, and then just says “hey, let’s all just get along.” It is THAT level of hypocrisy, and the fact that the Republicans have been gleefully getting away with it for so long now, that has many of us outraged by their actions and their spin."

Sort of a crush, really.
More to follow on the hypocrisy of the Republican party and gingers, too.

It's pretty cool that pop culture has been elevated to a source of real cultural relevance. and that the republicans are being called out on their high-school level bullshittery.
