While looking over the GOP schedule for their convention, I couldn’t help but notice that they put Rick Santorum on Tuesday night at 7:00.  I suspect that fits under the theory that you should take your medicine and get it over with.  Stick him at the front and hope everybody forgets him by the end.

Right before Rick the Pious speaks, there’s somebody named Janine Turner speaking.  That name sounded vaguely familiar to me.  I looked it up.  She’s the actress who played the role of Maggie on Northern Exposure.  And then June Cleaver in Leave it to Beaver. In 2007, she appeared in a promotional video for ‘Christoga,’ a “Christian form of Yoga” because, you know, regular yoga is probably Muslim or something.  Click the link and learn that Sweet Jesus wants you to go around with your belly button hanging out and doing crazy crap in front of candles and crosses.

And then I found this interesting tidbit on wiki —

Turner lives on a longhorn cattle ranch outside of Dallas, Texas, with her daughter, Juliette Turner-Jones.  Juliette’s father is Jerry Jones, Jr., son of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. Turner and Jones had an affair while Jones was still married to his wife.

Okay, so then she writes a book called Holding Her Head High: 12 Single Mothers Who Championed Their Children and Changed History. No Honey, you’re not a single mother, you’re a home-wrecker who boinged some other woman’s husband.  That ain’t nothing to be proud of – even in Texas.

Now I’m not saying that Ms. Turner will fit snugly in the arms of GOP hypocrisy … oh hell, yes I am.  That’s exactly what I’m saying.  She get all Jesus-upped to dress like a pavement princess and make a few bucks.  She makes sparks with somebody’s husband and then claimed she did it to change history.

And I’ll be damned, “On May 17, 2010 Turner was a paid speaker at an event sponsored by the “Americans for Prosperity” foundation, honoring Tea Party citizen leaders.”  It’s a career move.

Where do they find these women?  Well, wherever it is, they can keep them.
