3. WRONG
He just wanted to give someone furtive oral sex as he basked in the aroma of stale urine and unflushed hard waste...

4. Because such a place is "dirty".
And in his puddin' head, he thinks dirty thoughts and does dirty things with dirty men, according to him.

The kinda guy who thinks that a cologne that smells like urinal cakes would be a great idea, and that truck stops are beauty contests.

But those homersexuals are ruining America.

Mind mapping a guy like this would require string theory.

7. Voted NO on setting aside 10% of highway funds for minorities and women?
Huh?

Shouldn't our highway funds go for our fewking highways? How do women and minorities come into it, anyway?

What am I missing here?

8. I think it meant for contractors for highway work - ensuring minority owned businesses got some work
and federal funds for our roads and not just the big corps.

10. I've been assuming all along that
the sex is hotter by playing the marriedprolifeantichoicehomophobepolitician role. On the people's dime and suffering. What a sick and twisted racket. They're a sexual orientation all their own. Republicansexual or conservativesexual or politicosexual...
