Overheard in Arizona:


Jim DeMint

"Well, I for one, support the Arizona gay-hate bill. I think we need to stand in opposition to organized homosexuality. Personally, I like my gays disorganized and random. I especially like the random part. I like random encounters with homosexuals a lot and I don't want anything to change that."

Former senator Jim DeMint, head of the conservative The Heritage Foundation

Overheard off Sesame Street:


Jim DeMint


“You know, the Heritage Foundation’s report P-R-O-O-O-V-E-S Obamacare will mean higher insurance premiums for any stupid dumb poor people who sign up for care—if that damn website the PRESIDENT PERSONALLY DEVELOPED on his own iPad ever works right and they CAN sign up, that is.”

Jim DeMint, former senator and president of the Heritage Foundation, a national conservative ‘think tank’ and political action committee that supports Tea Party-ish candidates

“Wel-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l, maybe, maybe not, Mr. DeMint. Count Von Count has been analyzing your numbers VERY CLOSELY, and I think he has something to say about them.”

 “Let me explain. It seems that when you were adding up your columns of numbers you maybe forgot one pretty fucking important column, Mr. DeMint, and that would be the amount of money people would receive in the form of tax subsidies to be used toward the purchase of health insurance under the Obamacare program. Did you Heritage folk do that intentionally or was it just a mistake?”

“We did not believe it was important. Who knows how realistic those numbers are? What we do know is that Obamacare is going to be a realistic disaster for the entire world, particularly those who have to pay for it, like the good hard working Americans who don’t want government involved in every aspect of their lives and just want to settle down and live peacefully on their Social Security checks and Medicare.”

“Numbers are always realistic. Numbers are real. The Count is real. Ah-ah-ah-ah.”

 “What the Count means to say is that by following your logic, who the hell knows how realistic YOUR numbers are going to be in a month or a year or two years? Your argument goes both ways, you know. You can’t say their numbers are bad, but yours are good just because they are yours. And you know, this is reading an awful lot like a Muppet Movie, and you, Mr. DeMint, LOOK and ACT like a perfect Muppet Movie villain.”

Overheard on 'Meet the Press':




Jim DeMint
"Of course the federal government should keep its nose out of states' rights. Except for the requirement for women to have a forced ultrasound, even a transvaginal ultrasound, of course. Thousands of women welcome that, by the way, because it would be free."


Former Sen. Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina), now head of the conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation

"Wait... let me get this straight. You, a conservative Republican and former senator, are endorsing the right of the government to step between a woman and her doctor? That's OK with you? And it wouldn't be free, asshole."


Rachel Maddow, MSNBC host and the hottest, brightest and best broadcast journalist on the face of the planet.
