Kick! Making Politics Fun

There has always been confusion about what a Libertarian is. This is good example. Also think of Dick Armey who today directs and funds the Tea Party movement, and who yesterday made speeches in congress railing against Head Start, educational help for pre school children at risk. Keep in mind that this Libertarian is promoted by the fair and balanced Fox News.
So if this twat of a man thinks the answer is just for those with no legs to learn to crawl better makes you want to puke, perhaps this little video will ease your pain. Wack a Stossel

Libertarians are just radical Right-wingers who have not one care for anything or anyone other than themselves. They are mostly asocial computer nerds who have spent the major portion of their lives sitting in their bedrooms wishing someone liked them.
As children they spent most of their time in their rooms thinking about themselves. Ostracized by their peers in adolescence for being geeks, goobs and nobs, they kept to their bedrooms thinking even more about themselves. After years of being shut in their room furnished with only empty crates of Clearasil to sleep on, and nothing to eat but pizzas and Frito Lay products, local health departments kept them quarantined because their acne became so bad they were leaving trails like snails whenever they were let out. Having little to do but fiddle with their computers and talking their macho man gun talk, their teenage rebellion stage became a life long endeavor, and ultimately they became the driving force of the Libertarian Party.
So be careful who you jump in bed with politically, for the Libertarian Party is primarily about anarchy, guns, drugs, the militia movement, an ear bleeding hate of liberals and at its very core, a personal and political selfishness transcending anything witnessed on this Earth since Urg, in cave #25, holding the rest of his tribe at bay with a pointy stick, ate an entire Mammoth all by himself.

This graph from Gallup shows something turned things around on or about July 25th. From Democrats being 6 points ahead to 10 points behind. A drop of 16 points in less than 30 days. What happened on July 25th or so to steadily lose so much ground?
Economic indicators just do not change things to such a degree so fast. So I am hard pressed to find any issue large enough to precipitate such a sudden drop other that the Mosque controversy which carried us through most of August amplifying the Republican Lie that the President is a Muslim. Those "he's a muslim!" polls show an increase from 11% up to 18% of Americans, and those who believe him to be is a Christian went down from 48% to 34%. The jump seems to be more about American Religious intolerance than anything I can come up with. If you think this drop was precipitated by something else let us know. What else happened at the end of July, and as you can see, again on or about August 25th?
UPDATE: Consensus is that the second late August surge is from Glenn and Sarah's Church Picnic on the Mall. Two airheads babblin on and on about patriotic and Biblical homilies wins is a winner anywhere in America.
But the more important poll I want to bring to your attention I found in this week's TIME magazine. The online version does not present these 3 polls in the article Mr Unpopular, so you have to either take a look at the hard copy or just trust me on this.
There were three polls presented in the article all of which had about the same results. I will use only the last one because I have to format and hand type all this and they are so close it does not matter. The questions were:
Do you approve of the job President Obama is Doing handling Foreign Affairs?
Do you approve of the job President Obama is doing handling the economy?
Do you approve of the way Barack Obama is handling the job of President?
People July 2009 July 2010
Total 56% 49% Seniors 49% 45% Independent 48% 44% White 49% 41% Women 59% 49%
As you can see the biggest change in those Americans who are so mud dumb angry stupid they want to put the Republicans who caused them all their troubles back in the drivers seat, are WHITES and WOMEN. WHITE WIMMIN'!
I am reminded of the Mississippi murder of 14 year old Emmett Till who was said to have whistled at a white woman. The picture below from Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin's recent Church Picnic on the Mall puts the "if" of that controversy to bed, after all, who could resist the lure of Southern Christian White Women? I am all puckered up!
I am guessing that though this advertisement plays down here in Dumbutt as often as Flo and the lizard most of the rest of American does not see it. After all, the Texas mentality is smeared all over it - though they don't actually show their guns.
The message is clear. It is not the oil and gas companies, Republicans or corporate board members who could care less about the Planet we live on, but YOUR working class neighbors! Who you will notice a third of whom are African Americans!
I am doubt this one has much to do with the recent Supreme Court decision to allow corporations to spend as much money as they want on political ads, but it does give one a flavor of what is to come over the next 8 weeks.
I have noticed that everyone has conceded to The Beck Fox News numbers of 300,000 at the Beck and Palin Church Picnic. I suppose the reasoning is it does not matter, they are going to believe whatever Fox and Beck and Sister Sarah tell them to believe - which is why stupid people are so stupid.
I did a little count of my own. It is the lack of density that makes this rally number count in under 100,000. The lawn chairs, lounge chairs, mobility scooters, coolers, backpacks, costume bags, walkers and girth make the density of the crowd take up about three times as much room as a rally of smart people would take up. So 100,000 times 3 would be 300,000. There ya go!
Of course Michelle Bachmann - who will win in Minnesota only because she is batshit crazy CHRISTIAN - says there were 1.6 million present. She of course includes guardian angels, the holy host, holy ghosts, holy spirits, purgatory souls, ducks, geese, fish and leprechauns.
"And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the Sabbath day. And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation. And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him. And the Lord said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: All the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the Lord commanded Moses." Numbers 15:32 - 15:36
That passage is up front in the second chapter of the first book. That right there is more than enough to realize what a horror show one is getting into. GOD SAYS! If ever there was cause to throw the baby out with the bath water there ya go.
Quite often the humor goes missing from Right-wing cartoons. In fact Rameriz and McCoy often remind me of Rush Limbaugh who so often exclaims what an overweight, cold hearted, selfish, greedy, bigoted, racist, name calling right-wing jerk he is! And then laughs at his home spun sarcasm. Trouble is sarcasm does not work well the reality is that Rush Limbaugh really is an overweight, cold hearted, selfish, greedy, bigoted, racist right-wing jerk! Kick! Rush Limbaugh Section
This cartoon by Chuck Asay is one such example. On my first read I though that even conservative cartoonists has to balk at Beck, Palin, the Tea Baggers and their silly crap. That this man is smart enough to understand how patently absurd it is that the answer to fixing the economy, unemployment, debt and war is to wave the Bible around in one hand and Constitution in the other. It goes beyond absurd into the realm of psychotic.
In fact I was so confused I had to Google the guy. As soon as I realized he was from Colorado Springs (a city owned and operated by evangelical Christians) it became clear. Nope, no sarcasm in that cartoon. It is the real thing. That indeed, the way to solve our problems in America which is already the silliest Christian nation on Earth, we only need MORE Religious intolerance and Constitutional Constructionism to become even more bigoted and batshit crazy than we already are. Here's one from the newer book I am sure they like too.
"Neither was there any among them that lacked; for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of things that were sold, And laid them down at the apostles feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need." Acts of the Apostles 4-34
Have a familiar ring to it?
"From each according to their ability, to each according to their need." Karl Marx.
After watching this the old logic tree becomes clear.
Premise 1 - These are very very stupid people.
Premise 2 - These very very stupid people see the world only through the eyes of Fox News and Company.
Conclusion - Fox News and Company market specifically to very very stupid people.
So you see? Our nation is not split over red and blue, rural and urban, black and white or rich and poor... It is a split over smart and stupid. But if you are looking for a vote or selling a product or service you MUST keep your mouth shut or else.
I sometimes wonder if this could all be the fault of Plavix and company. Before all these life prolonging wonder drugs these stupid old bigots went on their way a lot sooner than they do these days. I also now understand why Sister Sarah gets her snatch in a snitch over the word "retard". Retard is her base.
It's not enough to be the 3rd most listened to radio talk show host. It's not enough to have the hottest FOX NEWS daily television show. It's not enough to author a string of NYT bestsellers. It's not enough to draw 1.6 million people (Michelle Bachmann's estimate) to the Washington mall to see him as the second coming.
It's never enough for Glenn Beck who is the top batshit crazy hate monger in America! No more opinion but THE NEWS re-arranged by Glenn Beck. Here you go, THE BLAZE!
