Are they actually capable of embarrassment?
sure.
Just ask them to hold up their hand and compare sizes.
They don't see reality, so every hand would be the biggest and the best hand.
yes, but they think you're saying they have a small dick. (even though there's no correlation between hand or foot size and dick size.)
Only when they get caught having a gay hookup in a gray hound bathroom... Which has happened several times unsurprisingly
I find that hard to believe... Is Greyhound really still chugging along?
As long as anti gay activists, pastors, and GOP politicians keep buying bus tickets so they have an excuse to why they were found chugging cock in the public restroom, Greyhound will stay in business.
Don't forget the restrooms in parks and other places. Also don't forget the underage pages that were all the rage decades ago.
I was assuming the article said, "the GOP is embarrassing." It's embarrassing, Republicans - seems self evident. I mean, it's not like 10 minutes when by and they didn't get anything done. Weeks, months, years have gone by with GOP demonstrating no interest in governing; of course they haven't accomplished anything.
Which is complete bullshit, they've wreaked havoc on civil rights and eroded the fabric of society to the point of implosion, what the fuck they talking about "we done nothing", they did a LOT, and they should face trial and execution in the damned International Court once their fascist aspirations crumble.
