Sam Brownback is a child

Disparaging tweet about Gov. Sam Brownback lands Kansas teen in principal’s office

My alternate title is: Good for you, Emma Sullivan!

I'm quite sure Sam Brownback and his people will see this, since they seem to troll media looking for instances of his name.
So, what are you going to do, Sam? Call my mommy and tell her I was mean to you?
I guess no one is allowed to question Emperor Brownback in Kansas.

I stand for the victims.

Actually, I think I need to edit that. I stand for all victims.

I said this earlier this evening, as I was watching the news from College Park.
"Why don't more abuse victims come forward? Just look at the scene at Penn State and I think you have an answer."

The Board at Penn State fired Joe Paterno. Good for them.
I watched reporters at the press conference lead off by asking "who's coaching the team on Saturday?"
I watched students pour out across the campus, proclaiming their love for him and their anger and disgust at his firing.

And all I could think was that some of the victims of Jerry Sandusky are the same age as these students.
And that victims of abuse are current students at Penn State.

Victims of abuse don't come forward more often because they are the people that get scrutinized.
Not the abuser.
It's just that simple.

So I make it clear. I stand with the victims. Always.

People in authority are supposed to protect children

Mothers Of Alleged Sandusky Victims Speak Out

I realize how hopelessly naive that title is. I mean, just below is a story of the Boy Scouts of America protecting a child molester for 20 years. And I've written before about the horrors of the Catholic Church's behavior towards the victims of its own priests. Why should I be surprised that a football program at a major university did nothing?
We can not stop highlighting the abuses. Shine a bright light on the cockroaches who abuse children.

Can't debate honestly, so resorts to name calling

Elizabeth Warren Heckled By Tea Party Supporter

Oh Tea Party. You are so very offensive.
"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win."
So they're up to fighting.
Which means they've lost.

A little more on the incident, from Greg Sargent.

Fuck off Joe Arpaio

Joe Arpaio, Arizona Sheriff, Calls On Obama To Release Birth Certificate Microfiche

So yet another racist thinks he has the right to demand of our President that which has never been demanded of any other.
Gee. And I wonder why the rage of anger makes my head hurt.
I am so fucking sick of assholes who have no business opening thier mouths just keep fapping away.
Shut up. Fuck off. And mind your own business, you disgusting racist buzzard.
