Did You Know...

They’ve thrown glitter Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty, and Saturday one of them tried to glitter Michele Bachmann.

Why do this? According to the glitter thrower, who the Star Tribune identified as Rachel E.B. Lang, “it’s a really good natured, light hearted way to bring attention” to the issue of gay rights. Lang might change her tune if somebody thinks throwing stuff at her is a good natured and light hearted way to express disagreement.

Yet another well reasoned argument:

What if a kook tried to assault a member of Congress — whether it’s by throwing glitter at Michele Bachmann or pies at Carl Levin — and the politician in question pummeled them? I’m not usually a single-issue voter, but I might consider pulling the lever for somebody who did an extemporaneous smackdown on an attacking moonbat.
