passing out pencils and campaign shit.
I had my "I only sleep with Democrats" t-shirt and even tho he shook my sister's hand, He totally ignored me and I was right next to her.
He is such an asshole
"He" being Mike Pompeo, KS-4.
Imagine you're US Representative Mike Pompeo. You're walking in an Independence Day parade in your solidly Republican home district, in solidly Republican Kansas. Among the happy, patriotic people you see a wizened, jaundiced, hate-filled piece of living beef jerky looking at you with murder in her eyes. A t-shirt printed with "I only sleep with Democrats" hangs from her bony shoulders.
What do you do?
You do exactly what Mike Pompeo did that day. You shudder inside, silently thank God you were born Republican, avoid eye contact (thank you,
Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, for that survival tip), and keep on walking.
