What We May Have To Look Forward To On Nov. 5th

I’m sure your neighborhood has a loon or two like this.

If these people had any of the sort of passion about the thousands of people that have died unnecessarily under George W. Bush that they have for the phony “Obama is a socialist” messages I would have more sympathy.

    You know, this would have a certain amount of appeal as some sort of right-wing version of Lewis Black, but I have a feeling that this guy lacks the self-awareness for that and takes this whole thing way too seriously. He has a “Questions about Obama’s citizenship” rant, too.

    You can bet everyone loves this guy at the Thanksgiving table when he’s screaming about whatever he saw on the Drudge Report the week before.

    I’ve said it before. Ask him about the moon landing. Go ahead, I dare you.

    Shrill and Screechy.

    But to answer your question of what’s next?

    Your rant will expose the stoopid in your candidate party, and movement.

    As was pointed out again and again and again.
    Even if “Joe” had answered TRUTHFULLY he would keep more of his money.

    Mention that next time if you want to be taken as more than another over the top rethug lieing sack of shit… Please?

    Oy. Get that guy some oxygen. He looks like he’s about to pass out.

    Didn’t Joe claim to be an undecided independent? Except for that part he left out, about being a registered Republican who voted for McCain in the March GOP primary…

    Sorry Joe got outed, but if he hadn’t tried to play everybody for fools (instead of just McCain’s team, who swallowed it hook, line, and sinker), the fisking would have been ineffective, and Joe’s story might actually have swayed a few voters.

    If it weren’t for the fact that the First Amendment protects ignorant speech too, I’d want to create a mandate that anyone who says “Obama is a socialist” be required to define what “socialism” is, and be fined $5 (like for cussing) if it doesn’t even approximate any of the definitions found in the dictionaries to which the Supreme Court regularly cites (e.g. Oxford English, American Heritage, Webster’s, Random House, etc.).

    I require that it be a dictionary used for legal purposes because there probably is a Rush Limbaugh dictionary that defines socialist as “anyone more liberal than El Rushbo,” which seems to be the popular definition among the modern generation of conservatives. Meanwhile, George F. Will is going LALALALA to the current state of his party and writing about the Battle of Gettysburg so he can indulge in nostalgia for the once-great Republican Party.

    “I’d want to create a mandate that anyone who says “Obama is a socialist” be required to define what “socialism” is …”

    I’d like someone who believes that Obama is a socialist to point out which of his proposed policies they think are socialist and explain why. Any takers?

    No, though today we get Old Tyme Religion.

    Not fire-and-brimstone evangelicals, of course. Will sticks to the REAL Old Tyme Religion: the Church of England, nowadays expanded to the Anglican Communion.

    The Episcopal Church once was America’s upper crust at prayer.

    Who was it who pointed out that both Bush and McCain were American aristocrats brought up Episcopalian, who left it for their wives’ evangelical churches?

    This, multiplied by 10, will be out in full force on Nov 4th.

    Times are tough for us actual genuine socialists. Not only has the political balance, particularly in the Anglophone world, slid far enough to the right to all but exclude our ideology from having any mainstream influence, but we keep getting cited as an example of hideous, corrupt, oppresive politics to compare with Nazism or Stalinism. And no-one seems to know what we genuinely believe.
