The GOP has made it to the 1970s in their grasp of diversity!
John McCain wanted the GOP convention keynote speaker line up to show the party’s diversity. This is what they came up with:
- Rudy Giuliani
- Joe Lieberman
- George Bush
- Dick Cheney
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
- Laura Bush
Let’s examine that diversity, shall we?
- White and lispy.
- White and Jewish.
- White and mentally challenged.
- White and evil.
- White and foreign.
- White and female.
Who knew there were so many different kinds of white? Other than Sherman-Williams? Just look at all these whites:
There’s Arcade White, Dover White, Panda White, Medici Ivory, Marshmallow, and Ski Slope!
Oh, wait. Undead Grampers’ campaign manager said this was about diversity of ideology within the GOP.
So not, like, actual diversity.
Although, the GOP will be allowing a man of Indian decent, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, and an African-American, Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele, on stage. For that, the GOP gets bumped right up into the 1980s for their level of diversity. The GOP deserves a lollipop.
Score
