...he was skulking around the Netroots' conference room level of the Minneapolis Convention Center trailing eager-beaver, 3rd tier wingnut Warren Todd Huston --
-- like some latter-day, Randite George and Lennie from "Of Mice and Men".
It was (as I wrote at the time) a stark and pathetic reminder of the fundamentally peevish and parasitic nature of the Right that they would build an entire movement and schedule entire conferences around the act of hating people like me.
That they would shadow us from city to city just to do so.
That the barrenness of their ideological cupboard is now so complete that a Wall Street Journal douchbag from New York and a mid-level wingnut talking point Pez dispenser from Chicago would travel all the way to Minnesota just to slink around among the happy energetic Liberals to grub for crumbs of incipient socialism About Which They Can Be Loudly Outraged, and crib notes about what panels the Dirty Fucking Hippies had put together to destroy America.
So what is John Fund doing these days?
Trying to win The National Review Buzzword House Cup for packing as many wingnut-approved trigger-words into his scalding burn of Libtard activists.
Let's count them together shall we?
Who Was behind the Flake Set-Up?
ACORN’s tactics live on in the senator’s elevator confrontation with activists from a Soros-backed group.
The Center is a left-wing group that is heavily funded by George Soros’s Open Society Foundations...
Archila has another role beyond her duties as co–executive director of the Center. She is also a member of the national committee of the Working Families Party (WFP), a New York–based fringe political party...
The WFP was founded in 1998 by the leaders of ACORN, the now disbanded and disgraced group of community organizers for whom Barack Obama served as a lawyer, in Chicago in the 1990s...
ACORN was one of the most disreputable, amoral, and sleazy groups every to darken American democracy...
In 2009, ACORN finally ran off the rails. Guerrilla videographer James O’Keefe secretly recorded...
It’s a sign of media bias that the people from the well-funded groups behind the anti-Kavanaugh protests...
Points off for not squeezing in Saul Alinsky, the New Black Panthers or Benghaaaazi, but a solid "B+" to Mr. Fund: a grown adult human being who, every time he puts pen to paper, demonstrates just exactly how ridiculously easy it is for any pervert who knows the wingnut codex to make a very fine living troweling out this kind of brown-shirt Mad-Lib grab-bag bullshit as "news".
And, like every other professional Conservative Big Thinker, the fact that is has also poisoned our democracy almost beyond the point of no return obviously does not trouble Mr. Fund one little bit.
Behold, a Tip Jar!

Yeah, doing exactly what they accuse Soros and the left of doing.
Sykes, Brooks and the Hewitts have shown your John Funds there is money to be made from the pig sty.
Clearly before the tax cuts for Jesus. So many republican congress critters told us right out in public, "their big donors told them if they do not pass the tax cuts they need not ever call them again".
Did the GOP pass tax cuts so their donors could use tax dollars to fund their Republican apparatus?
The very day after tax cuts passed, Koch Brothers publicly donate $5 hundred thousand to Speaker Ryan's GOP campaign fund.
Ryan as speaker flew (later) to Nevada to beg for more money from Seldon Adelson. And was blessed with more (tax dollars) given to Adelson by congress.
The anger, indignation, spite and hate the right imposes from a democracy position of power is nothing new.
Forever marketing and changing its labels. Never listing its secret sauce ingredients. The amount of secret sauce ingredients in every serving.
A secret ingredient that has been well known for a long time.
One of my all time confronting in history of this right wing hatred (the secret ingredient) was and continues to be. FDR.
Their hatred for us.

Hate has no bounds limits. Does not compromise. Is always directed and inflicted on others with someones prodding and permission. Has an appetite that can never, ever be quenched.
It has much to do when attempting to address issues on facts. Facts that do not penetrate the permanent fog of hate. It is why a Sentor Graham or hatch could sit through Dr. Ford's testimony and merely minutes later at the beginning of kavanaugh's portion of this hearing. Everything prior in Ford's hearing can become inconsequential. hate can do that.
Brett invoked his conspiracy of hate, Graham got a taste and wanted more. So it became a smorgasbord of all you can wallow.
It is that simple to diagnose. As we see in FDR's history what he confronted and how. A long list of lessons from FDR I still learn from.
Mr. Fund: a grown adult human being who, every time he puts pen to paper, demonstrates just exactly how ridiculously easy it is for any pervert who knows the wingnut codex to make a very fine living troweling out this kind of brown-shirt Mad-Lib grab-bag bullshit as "news".
Best laugh of the day. I'm just too sick of it to laugh very well though!
