This was just a dumb stunt, bad taste, that’s all. Stuff like this doesn’t win any votes.

Here's where you've probably been brainwashed. Only conservatives are restricted by the norms of taste - and that's by design. The goal is to make opposition to liberal/left-wing ideology impossible by hampering any criticism of it by hypocritical appeals to "taste" or "propriety". It's a way of getting you to fight with both your arms tied around your back while they get to use tire irons. They get to morph President Bush's face with a chimpanzee, while throwing eggs at a picture of Obama is a beyond the pale.

Nonsense.

If you read the article, you surely noted that even the Young Republicans were embarrassed by this group’s repeated stunts.

FWIW, I have strong ties to A&M, love the school, and am most impressed with the quality of its students.

Being rude simply doesn’t win votes. I haven’t been brainwashed, just taught good manners. Didn’t your mother teach you about flies, honey, and vinegar? If not, perhaps she should have.
