Repugs Roll Out "Slap Hillary" Game

A Republican Super PAC has put out a new online "game" where they ask their supporters to virtually slap Hillary Clinton across the face. The Super PAC is known as The Hilary Project and is an anti-Hillary Clinton group.

Whether you're for Hillary in 2016 or not, this is DISGUSTING! There's already a petition launched against it: http://act.weareultraviolet.org/sign/hillarygame/?referring_akid=.642010.Cfl72n&source=taf

Not that the assholes will listen. They'll probably just laugh at us.

2. Very similar to putting cross hairs on Gabby Giffords. Gabby got hurt so did Republican reputation.

Let us hope this time no one gets hurt other than Republican reputation.

3. There used to be one for Bush where you could punch him.

It's probably still online. So, all this outrage is kind of ridiculous.

Or are we going to pretend that it too was inappropriate?

5. It is and was inappropriate.

And I don't engage in encouraging violence against political leaders in my party or the GOP.

Ridiculous is not the word I'd use at all.

I'm sure they do too.

It's not "encouraging violence". It's a stupid online game.

The pearl clutching around here is tiresome sometimes.

13. There was also the PETA game where you pelted Sarah Palin with snowballs

I seem to remember she threw an awful snit fit over that one.

4. In what universe is it okay to encourage violence?

And against a woman, former First Lady, Senator, Sec of State no less!

So much for trying to appeal to women.

but that's probably what they do to their wives, mistresses, children and workers.
Somebody has to stop these fascists.

How about a game where you get to change Vitter? The "I'm A Changed Man" game could be a lot of fun, or how about one where you can give money to schools, or raise taxes on corporations that send jobs overseas and make Ryan get that sad kicked-puppy look? Can you imagine the super-whine-fest Republicans would have at that?

Last of all, a Spank-The-Boehner game: the faster you go, the more orangish he gets. As a bonus round, have, erm, shots at whiskey bottles, and if you get enough of them, Boehner cries. Perfect "score" and his tan runs.

Think of this as an opportunity.

In 2016, the only "slapping" that we Clinton supporters will hear is the sound of liberals nutsack's slapping against the chin's of all GOP teabaggin candidates, including their presidential candidate.




Hillary Clinton 2016!

14. How about we create a game where the goal is to punch John Boehner in the face?

I could easily get behind this game!
