Eugene Robinson in the WashPost lands a stinging zinger on the Cooch:"The
Democratic candidate, longtime party fundraiser and operative Terry
McAuliffe, has always shown more talent as a kingmaker than as a
candidate. But he’s fortunate to have as his opponent Ken Cuccinelli,
the commonwealth’s loony-bin attorney general.
Describing Cuccinelli’s
views as “far right” is like calling Usain Bolt “reasonably fast.”
And there's also this:
"At the moment, Cuccinelli is
challenging an appeals-court decision that struck down Virginia’s sodomy
law, which sought to restrict sex acts between any two people,
including married couples.
The Supreme Court ruled such laws
unconstitutional 10 years ago, so the appeals court really had no
choice. But Cuccinelli is appealing anyway.
When he was campaigning for attorney general, Cuccinelli refused to
endorse his Republican predecessor’s policy of nondiscrimination against
gays and lesbians. “My view is that homosexual acts, not homosexuality,
but homosexual acts are wrong,” he said at the time.
“They’re
intrinsically wrong. . . . They don’t comport with natural law.”
Love it. The Cooch is a complete exemplar of Tea Party looniness run amok in a human brain.
