Candidate's son makes total ass of himself

The conservative intelligentsia (as it were) instills such poor discipline on its own spoiled children that they end up getting humiliated beyond all hope.

Bob Schaffer is the Republicans' right-wing candidate for U.S. Senate from Colorado. His 19-year-old son is a student at the University of Dayton. Now it's been revealed that Schaffer's son posted a totally idiotic, embarrassing webpage.

The website reportedly featured a photo of a waving Obama emblazoned with the words, "High Five, Who's Gay," and a picture of the Pyramids with the words, "Slavery Gets Shit Done."

The website isn't illegal - but it's stupid. Does anyone actually think it's funny? I have a good sense of humor, but I just think it's dumb (as well as trite). And this incident is embarrassing in the extreme to Schaffer's candidacy.

The University of Dayton, which is a private institution, is considering reprimanding the student over this humiliating display of stupidity.

What's really funny is that this embarrassing spectacle had to happen during a crucial point in Bob Schaffer's Senate campaign. Life doesn't get any sweeter than this!

    Tough break Bob.

    That kid must be a real "winner"..Sounds like the rich stuck-up kid in school who nobody liked but who never seemed to realize it.
