Yuck! Hispanic!
Denton County is in north Texas and is in Texas only because Oklahoma doesn’t suck quite enough. It is full of Republican women who are not rich enough or pretty enough to make it in the Dallas social scene but fancy themselves to be Sue Ellen Ewing.
And that’s how Dianne Edmondson came to be the Republican county chair in Denton County.
When Dianne is not busy looking down her nose at you, she sends out emails to the party faithful.
They are perky, blinking lights kind of emails. You know, the kind where you know she laments daily that her keyboard doesn’t give her a choice of dotting her i’s with little hearts.
Here, let me show you a snippet from her latest email.
You can click the little one to get the big one.
Oh yeah, she said that. You can go look for yourself.
Dianne, you know we can hear you, right?
Abortion Barbie and Hispanic Sen? Really? Those are the worst two things you could come up with?
And, if you have the guts, you can scroll down the newsletter and see that their Lincoln Reagan Day Dinner will feature not only Ted Cruz but also his batcrap crazy Dad. As the warm-up act is … oh yeah, Louie Gohmert.
Come on, Oklahoma, suck harder.
She’s right about one thing, that is a “super women” ticket. We’re lucky to have them!
1OUTSTANDING take-down, Susan. And such a deserving target. Encore!
2Oh Speaker Boehner, remember coaching the boys to be a little more sensitive when running against women? That GOP re-brand effort meme needs to reach Republican women, too.
Check it out, Reince Priebus, one of your lady Republican county chairs is busy insulting women, Hispanics and is posed to hit a triple Gohmert with Loopy Louie speaking. Any guesses to how many groups will be offended by the time dessert arrives? Grab a clue, as this white male is already offended.
3Right now the GOP is not running any sort of outreach program. They are running an inreach program. After a brief period of introspection after the 2012 elections, they are doing what every authoritarian group does after they are rejected – they are doubling down, on the assumption that they lost because they were wusses who departed from Their True Way (TM).
4The Abbott supporters are very active on twitter using the hashtag #abortionbarbie. Do not use this search term on twitter unless you want to get sick. The Abbott supporters posting on twitter using this hashtag are not nice people. This is going to be a nasty campaign
5An egregious example of why “pearls do not a lady make.”
6Um. OK. I will have to revert to something told to me by a very erudite and learned and brave lady some time ago: “Oh, Dianne, you are so lucky you are pretty.” (Cuz you have the brains of fungus!)
7The GOP is not running an outreach to women program. It’s more like a reacharound.
8LynnN if i’m following ya properly there’s nothing there how poignant.
9It’s just insulting–leaves me sick at heart for the young, and especially the “Barbie” insult–as the unwanted child of a 16 yr old, I support pro-choice, birth control, food stamps, everything we can do to keep anyone from having a horrible, hungry, childhood like mine….
10The repugs are reminding me of the forced breeding programs that the Germans had to produce the “master race” except that it’s the poor, the mixed population, and all those not-like-me people that will be forced into more children–their own will go to Sweden like the upper middle class girls always have. I was raised in a minority situation, so have no problem looking to any and all people for solutions to our problems–I just don’t understand the hatred and fear. The Gohmert stupidity is beyond me as well…ha! I say I was too sheltered, but that’s definitely not it!
Oh Dear God. Louie Gohmert, Ted Cruz & Poppa Rafael Cruz all in the same room at the same time? That’s gotta cause some kind of massive contagious brain infection or a tear in the time space continuum.
Good Grief. Where can I hide?
11I know this will be seen as technical hairsplitting, but WTH…
“Ms Edmondson, you ignorant …. in Texas the Governor and the Lieutenant Governor are elected separately. Therefore Wendy Davis and Letitia van de Putte cannot be “running mates”. If you don’t believe me axe the question of the professor of your choice in the UNT or TWU Political Science departments”
Geeesh!
12Am I missing something here? Her newsletter says they need to dispute the claims that there is a Republican war on woman – – immediately after she calls two women Abortion Wendy and Hispanic Leticia.
Thems sounds like fightin’ words to me. Although it does appear that the best they’ve got is sticks & stones, an arsenal comprised of Neolithic weapons.
Kind of like their policies?
13Mroooowwwhh. That was certainly catty enough for any petty little grade school girl. Jealousy does NOT become her.
14It never occurred to me to think that Denton, home of a place where weird musicians all live and never lock their doors would also have simultaneously people who would like Cruz and Cruz Papa and Gohmert at the same time. Is there a big wall between the two areas?
15It’s a vortex, Marge Wood. Juanita Jean implores Oklahoma to suck harder, but the dimwits keep blowing. Call it a whirlwind of gohmerts.
Dominion Senior and Junior Cruz will be there, but no Dubya Dominion. Must really suck for Dubya to be replaced by Loony Louie. An ex-president gets dissed in his own state. Holy Gohmerts, when Dubya can’t make the ‘conservative’ cut.
16Gee, Leticia has 6 kids and some grandkids and is anti-family? News to me!
17If this will help,JJ,I see the New York Satanist group has drawn up design for their Satanist display to add to the Oklahoma Capitol steps. That should get Okie pols to suck wind.
18Maryelle, those are not real pearls around her neck. Those are plastic, just like the rest of her. Repub-Barbie.
19Next up, Ms. Edmondson will explain how pointing out the race of the Democratic candidate for Lt. Governor was totally not racist.
20Many interesting comments on her Facebook page at the present time.
As far as “you know we can hear you, right?” goes, it’s just the fifteen-month-old syndrome. I see it on Free Republic all the time.
They think that when they speak (or dog-whistle) to their constituents, no one else can see or hear what they’re saying.
Or, as Bill Cosby put it so eloquently:
“Now this fifteen month old child after I’ve left the room begins to build a very sophisticated ladder. Climbs up the ladder. And begins to try to get the cookie. Now you can hear the paper rustling and that’s in your favor because a fifteen month old child doesn’t know that sounds travels. They’re also not bright enough to hire a lookout. So you hear the paper rattling.”

21Wooooo, grrl! Yer on fire!
Truly inspirational; Godde bless you, hon.
22Dianne Edmondson reminds me of the bigoted Hilly Holbrook character in the book and movie, “The Help.” Like Hilly, Edmondson sounds like the type who could to with “a nahce slahce of pah.”
23“I personally am concerned…”. Lemmee guess…..homeschooled?
