What with Republicans mud wrestling over leadership positions on the basis of who can tell the biggest lie with the straightest face, the following re-post seems timely—

“The message from us is, ‘You look silly,’ ” a coordinator told the local news channel. “We’re dressed like clowns, and you’re the ones that look funny.”
