There are people who give Free Speech a bad name; people who use any freedom the government protects to undermine and destabilize and overthrow that government and exploit the population -- and all for personal ( and corporate) gain.
Such are the shadowy, entities behind the multi-headed beast pumped into a frenzy by unaccountable and uncountable millions they get for the purpose: entities like SOCYBERTY.COM whose recent post was sent to me by a breathless Republican eager to impart the secret knowledge that no, President Obama did not give the order to enter Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan because he is a dithering, indecisive coward and the reins of government have been pried from his trembling, black hands. You see, Leon Panetta had to "override" Obama with the help of cabinet members and that eye-rolling Minstrel Show clown is too afraid now to tell the truth. Holdouts like Valerie Jarett aren't telling us either because of the "investigation back in Chicago" but there was a silent coup and Obama is no longer in control.
"What Valerie Jarrett, and the president, did not know is that Leon Panetta had already initiated a program that reported to him –and only him, involving a covert on the ground attack against the compound."Of course no news agency; not ABC or NBC or FOX or CNN or BBC or Deutsche Welle or al freakin' Jazeera knows about this, only SOCYBERTY.COM and all the other PAC funded heads of the same hydra who are cutting and pasting and posting these stories. Google it and you'll see. They have secret sources in the cabinet, you know, who will commit treason only for them.
Sure, we can see it as the desperate death throes of a humiliated racist party, a wicked witch melting and hissing on the floor, but I can't forgive it and I can't forgive the people who e-mail it around the country like some titillating photo of some stoned starlet getting out of a limousine in a short skirt. I can't forgive, I can't forget and while old Yahweh was willing to spare Sodom for the sake of ten good citizens, no God worth his scriptures would forgive a country that contained ten such unpunished liars as these.
Capt. Fogg,
ReplyDeleteThis is a Fogg Classic in style and content. Yes, I've come across this "coward" meme a few times. It's so stupid and obviously false that it's bound to appeal to the teahoovian sensibility -- I mean, you can't go wrong: it insults the president brutally and offers the bowel-movement-like satisfaction of indulging in a conspiracy theory. What's not to like there?
This is the worst - and most desperate attempt I've seen to show him like a racist cartoon from a hundred years ago. It all stems from the fact that he's been successful in foiling plots and arresting plotters and at a miniscule fraction of the money.
ReplyDeleteThe disgusting thing is the audience however -- people who hate him so passionately that they will make utter fools of themselves in their willful suspension of sanity.
If I believed in a hell, I would hope that the circle reserved for these societal dregs would be one of the most unpleasant ones. Worse than the ones for mother-rapers and the father-stabbers and the people who beat dogs -- for those people know on some level that they are evil, while these lying liar pants-on-fire types really haven't a clue. They in fact seem to believe they are righteous and good. And it is highly unlikely they will ever realize otherwise, which is why I wish there was a special hell for them because that's the only thing that would ever bring that realization.
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad you have that adorable fishtank over there where I can stop and feed the fishies when I am typing a particularly aggrieved comment and feel the need for a little soothing.
