We had a good run, Irony, but you are as dead as Ron Paul’s chances of winning the GOP primary. It’s been coming for some time now, as the Onion is finding it more and more difficult to parody the right but the final nail has been put into your coffin. Last week, Rep. Steve King (R-Why does it have to be the state I live in?), stood up in front of the United States Supreme Court and announced, on camera, that he was against the government telling the American people what to do with their bodies:
“I want the nanny state out of my life and I don’t want my body commandeered, and I will tell you that the most sovereign thing is your soul…but the most second sovereign thing is your health. That’s your skin and everything inside it and you are the one that must me able to manage that health. nobody else should be sticking their nose in it.”
