Kristi Noem, the United States Secretary of Homeland Security, appeared on Glenn Beck’s radio show and slammed “South Park” as “so lazy” and “petty” after she became the Comedy Central series’ latest target.

“It never ends, but it’s so lazy to constantly make fun of women for how they look,” Noem told Beck about the episode, while also acknowledging she did not watch it because she was “going over budget numbers and stuff.”

“It’s always the liberals and the extremists who do that,” Noem added. “If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that, but clearly they can’t, they just pick something petty like that.”

Vance might be a fucking prick, but his response was perfect. "Well, Ive made it.". Gives the clickbait press nowhere to go, gives his enemies nothing to pile on about. But it sure makes him look normal compared to the state of idiot, who is looking like shes just walked out of an outreach poster for neglected Beverly Hills housewives.

Don't get me wrong, Vance is evil...

But this is yet another thing that shows that he actually is among the most intelligent of this clown car of an administration.

He's smart enough to know that whining about a crude joke at his expense is very petty and projects patheticness.

See, he's better at keeping his mask on, his face from sliding off, than Noem is.

Noem's mask is slipping, face melting away just actually in realtime, barely even a metaphor at this point, she is so stupid she doesn't even realize her response was predicted, and is now thus meta-self referential.

Idiot bullies are very easy to trigger when they can't just immediately inflict pain on you as a response, goddamnit this is all so fucking stupid.

He's just relieved they didn't make a couch joke.

Pretty sure there was an upholstered piece of furniture with holes all over it with him in the frame.

Yeah, that was pretty La-Z of the boys...
