Erick Erickson: Feds Gave Ebola Dollars To Fat Lesbians

If a liberal group is going to blame Republicans for the Ebola outbreak, RedState editor Erick Erickson is going to blame “fat lesbians.”

Following the release of a brutal ad from the Agenda Project Action Fund that attacks the likes of Mitch McConnell and Pat Roberts for budget cuts, Erickson offered the GOP some material to fight back, highlighting examples of what he deemed as a wasteful use of federal dollars.

“For example, instead of studying Ebola, the National Institutes of Health were studying the propensity of lesbians to be fat,” Erickson wrote Monday on his blog, providing a link to a study on the link between sexual orientation and obesity.

Erickson announced earlier this year that he was accepted to seminary, calling it part of his journey “to glorify God more fully in this multidimensional platform of a career God has blessed me with.”

  1. Everyone knows the only thing worse than a lesbian is one who’s FAT!

    Jaysus…

  2. Now we know what this freak’s sex fantasy involves…

  3. Erick…face it, the GOP thanks to sequestration are responsible for the Ebola issue. Of course, if you have a great deal of faith in God like you pretend to, why don’t you volunteer to go help in West Africa.

  4. “Look, it’s the four pillars of the male heterosexual psyche. We like:
    naked women, stockings, lesbians, and Sean Connery best as James Bond.”

    I truly don’t understand a lot of people who claim to be so religious yet will spout the most ugly, divisive and demeaning comments I have ever heard. Just baffling.
