Delivered, at random, to my google home page:

The two symbols of the Republican Party: an elephant, and a big fat white guy who is threatened by change.
- Seth MacFarlane

1. i fully agree! except one part: "fat" is not an insult. but using it to

insult slime like them insults countless wonderful and cherished fat people in this world.

maybe a word for greedy ... ?

otherwise, spot on.

2. It mentioned a specific individual as a symbol...

not all fat or overweight people.

Now let's see, what fat white guy who lives on fear and oxycotin and has a golden "mike" always around an orifice could we be talking about? The appropriately named hopped up guy?

[nofurylike]

4. believe me, i see that. him and plenty others. but even when

people use it talking about him, they are listing what they see as flaws, no?

fat is not a flaw.

please understand, i simply have to try to get people to stop using it as an insult.

is bloviated a word i've heard people use?

anyway, thank you for commenting back.

3. But....splutter, splutter...how does that explain Christine O'Donnel and Sarah Palin?

Ermmm....never mind. The big, fat white guy, I get it. :eyes:

6. Maybe "big, fat white guys"

like playthings and harbor major lust for cute, sassy, though entirely idiotic women.

These women probably confound them and it's pretty unlikely that much else does.
