1. UnRec: true mental illness is not a joke and not a subject for comedy. |
|
There are DUers as well as their family, friends, or loved ones who truly suffer from mental illness and it is not a term to be used in a clever attempt at scoring political points.

8. Obviously if you knew ANYTHING about the truly mentally ill |
|
you would never refer to an objection to making a joke of being mentally ill as being hyper-sensitive.
None of those people have been diagnosed by anyone as being mentally ill and there is nobody who can remotely make that diagnosis.

10. All the world and its tribulation are stones upon which the comedian sharpens his tongue. |

Reccing in concert with this sentiment.

9. It is standard for Republicans to nominate the previous loser. |
|
Reagan lost in 1976 and was nominated in 1980. GHW Bush lost in 1980 and was nominated in 1988. Dole lost in 1988 and was nominated in 1996. GW Bush was the exception because there was no obvious successor from 1996. McCain lost in 2000 and was nominated in 2008. It's obviously Romney's turn.
