I Knew It! I Knew It! They Stink!
You know how I have to ask God’s forgiveness every day for hating Republicans?
Yeah, but now I have an excuse. They stink.
In a study recently published in the American Journal of Political Science, lead investigator Rose McDermott, Ph.D., of Brown University, found that adults were more likely to be attracted to the body odors of people who had similar political beliefs and repelled by the body odors of those with opposing ideologies.
Since I smell really good, that must mean Republican do not. And, come to think of it, most of them do smell like they’ve got a week old pound of crawfish in their back pocket and a goat under each arm. Or at their politics do.
Thanks to Scott for the heads up.
And all this time I thought it was a special blend of cheap smelly cologne that they handed out at the meetings.
1I can see the marketing possibilities already:
(Radio script, or TV ad voiceover)
He: Conservative Musk, the fragrance of Freedom!
He: Smell like a real American.
she (whispers): Conservative Musk!
He: Make the liberals gag!
she (whispers): Conservative Musk!
He: Alert any downwind illegals that this border is manned!
she (whispers): Conservative Musk!
He: Made with the stink of fear, desperation and dirty bedsheets
she (whispers): Conservative Musk for Him!
He: Or the delightful scent of submission, sour milk and a hint of verbena
she (whispers): Conservative Musk for Her!
He: Conservative Musk – unless you WANT to smell like a Commie!
2The repukes sure to put the stink in hypocrisy. They tear paragraphs out of the US Constitution with the same savagery they tear pages out of their Buybull. They are the most anti-American and unchristian people polluting the planet.
Benghazi? Excuse me, iirc from history Reagan had more civilians killed under his watch.
IRS scandal? Anyone remember Nixon’s “enemies list” or J Edgar Hoover?
Am so sure Christ Himself would be appalled by their behavior toward the little children from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala needing asylum from murder.
Could wax poetic about the Koch suckers and GOP campaign financing, but Juanita Jean and Alfredo over at your local Dairy Queen have that covered chapter and verse.
And all this war on Christians hyperbole. Really? Refresh my memory on what the Bible says in a few places about public praying, and a raft of other nonsense used to create a mythic ‘others’ undeserving of basic human rights.
JJ, I don’t know that “hate’ is the word I’m looking for. Think maybe a simple STFU would satisfy me. Please, please dear goddesses, make them STFU.
3And what if you don’t have a scent? I know some friendly hound dogs who couldn’t find me when they tried after being given one of my old shirts to sniff. And these puppies were field trial winners!
sudden thought
Do I exist?
4maggie, you exist! But dogs are amazing. While they receive proper credit for their extraordinary senses, they don’t receive the full credit they deserve for their sense of humor. We work cattle dogs, plus Jane has her ‘house dog.’ My guys are all business working cattle, but in their off time, they love messing with me. Often people mistake a dog as being defiant or disobedient, when they truly are displaying their sense of humor. When they make us laugh, they truly love the response.
Those dogs were messing with you, maggie. Take it as an extreme compliment!
5What do hate, ignorance, hypocrisy and narcissism smell like?
6Eau de Republican.
So true, Polite Kool Marxist–years ago I had a dog who smiled when I pretended to hide her food. She loved that game.
7Old Mayfly, I love it that Seamus the Romney dog had the last laugh on old $Rmoney. Old Mitt stepped in some pretty deep dog doo with his 47% remark. But, seriously, he lost a lot of votes with the few sane conservatives who love their dogs, when the idiot ‘family man’ made a member of the family ride on the roof of his car. Nice to know there are still a few good Republicans who understand what we owe our loyal, loving pets.
Too bad the Repukes can’t wrap their minds around a scintilla of the same empathy for loyal employees.
Juanita Jean, goats under their armpits? If only, the goats would be happier. For real, until the goats can sign a consent form, Republicans need to back away from the goats and other livestock.
8Please don’t insult the goats,JJ. My old goat smells a helluva lot better than any Republican I’ve ever met.
9They stink because they’re full of BS.
10glf: You hit that one right on the head!
11I have to say, this is one of the funniest conversations in awhile. Just for fun, I googled “product conservative musk”. Here’s one of the things I found: Careful, conservative addition of musk, a deeper more provactative fragrance has been created …” The writer also can’t spell. Have fun.
