Scientists plead for urgent action to tackle the growing dementia crisis
reads the headline in The Observer. Have they been listening to the 2012 Presidential campaign or watching Fox News?
Brit
Hume of the paralyzed face; has the Botox affected his brain or has he
been surgically altered so as not to grimace when he dutifully reveals
what his corporate masters want you to think: that President Obama sympathizes with the people who killed a US ambassador and some of his staff.
He loved
it, Obama did. He loved it like he loved 9/11, like he'd love to grab
your guns, raise your taxes and steal your chickens. He hates America
and everything you hold dear and he pisses on the Bible and shits on the
flag every morning before breakfast and uses them new smart meters the
power company installed to sneak through the wires and have phone sex
with your wife at night. You know, he does things -- things like the way he 'went over there and apologized to them'
and other things, other policies, other histories that only happened in
the Budweiser soaked minds of America's demented underclass, straining
for some excuse to make it appear that they're not ignorant, demented
bigots.
Yessir, Romney was right, just like Mister Brit
said -- but Ol' Rom just didn't say it right so's them libby rills
would be satisfied, but hell, ya'll know that boy ain't a real Amerkin. And never you mind that ol' preacher Terry Jones who
went from roastin' weenies over Koran fires to makin' films showing us
how all them other prophets like to lick Satan's privates and Jesus
hates 'em all. Just because them pagan ragheads got all exited don't
make it his fault or our fault for promotin' him and stirrin' up the
good Amerkun Tea Paytry-its in the name 'a righteousness.
If there has been a strange silence along these turbulent shores, perhaps it is because the Goddamn Offal Party has left us gasping for clean air.
ReplyDeleteWe knew in advance this would be the dirtiest political fight in American history, but what we did not anticipate is “how much dirt?” Not just dirt, but the worst shit imaginable – liquid stool, solid stool, veritable rivers of mudslinging and stench. Their stink tank consultants fabricate shit faster than you can clean it up; the GOP has morphed itself into Swift’s Academy where lunatics think they can spin shit into electoral gold.
When a political party trades on nothing but deceit and deception, and you can no longer discern what they stand for, their moral bankruptcy will doom them to failure …
… and fail they will according to the latest polls.
Capt. Fogg and Octo,
ReplyDeleteI've thought from the outset of this campaign -- really from Romney's publication of that book of his onwards -- that the entire Republican campaign consists of nothing but race-baiting of the lowest order: they just keep making up nonsense about Obama's alleged "apologies" for everything we do and are understood to stand for, and insinuating any way they can that he isn't "one of us." As a big supporter put it, Obama needs to "learn how to be an American." What's deplorable is that no matter how low they sink, they are likely to get the support of over 45% of the electorate.
I suspect that while the election may not be a blowout, tens of millions of individual judgments have been made already, and Romney/Ryan have by now pretty much made it impossible for themselves to get to that magical 50% that would make an e-college victory likely. President Obama is already right around there or above the mark, even with a bad economy working against him. And he's doing fine in key swing states.
High-paid pundits are almost incapable of saying the election won't be close, but honestly, I don't see such preposterously fake, hollow candidates as Romney or Ryan being at all likely to win. They may not lose by ten points, but they aren't likely to win by even one point, either.
Just consider who they've angered beyond recovery already: millions of women find them only slightly less unpalatable than the Taliban; Romney seems to have gone to the NAACP meeting for the express purpose of ensuring his well-deserved ZERO % of support from African Americans, Latinos are obviously not ecstatic with anything he has said about the Dream Act. Then there's his lame, hypocritical, stupid repudiation of the Affordable Care Act, which makes even supporters wonder what planet he's from. Romney/Ryan's RNC effort was widely panned and produced no shoring up of support, so far as anyone can tell. I could go on, but there's no need. Romney is among the worst candidates the GOP has ever fielded, and that's saying something.
All in all, I'd suggest that the president is in good shape for Nov. 6th. So long as he doesn't fail the Edwin Edwards test (i.e. "don't get caught with a dead woman or a live boy"), he should be fine. And since he's a decent fellow, there's no worry on the Edwards front. Not that certain Republicans wouldn't accuse him of engaging in both pedophilia AND necrophilia at the same time if they thought anyone would buy it beyond some sliver of the gullible, clueless fools who already support Romney. But it won't work.
To express it another way ...
ReplyDeleteWhen your candidate is a blowfish prepared by amateurs, the dish will make you sick to your stomach.
Not only isn't he one of us, he's one of them.
