(Me on my 6th birthday, many years ago in a far-off land.)
On the one hand, it's always encouraging when the slower kids start to catch
up to where we America-hating, terrorist-loving, Libtard scum have been all
along.
For example. From me 17 years ago, about a minute after I started this little blog:
The problem is that there are section of this country – entire states --
that are simply, irredeemable rotten. Where the locals are so fucking
gone, live in such a cesspit of bigotry, ignorance and Biblical
Justification for being stupid and bigoted that perhaps there is nothing for
us to do for them but seal the intellectual borders and let the Disease of
unreconstructed Wingnut Confederate Ideology run its terrible course.
Granted we will be deprived of some of our finest NASCAR drivers and
grabby-handed Christian con men...
The good news is, as loud at the Ultras are, and as long a shadow as they
cast, they are nowhere near a majority in this country. To win they and the
Moderates have to lean against each other like two drunks running a
three-legged race, and we should take a lot of hope in that.
Consider the obvious fact that we Lefties were, for example, just about 100%
right about everything regarding Iraq, and the Bush WH has been shown to be
just about 100% wrong in every aspect and in every detail...
Not exactly a popular opinion to be staking out during the height of the Dubya
Administration.
From me
in 2007:
And the thing is, even after all of that – decade after decade after surreal
decade filled with Big Haired Slunkmeat Bible Molesters -- I don’t despise
them.
I really don’t.
I despise the irredeemable, ineducable, dumbass legions of this
country that blindly follow them, believe in them, vote as they are told,
and hate as they are told.
Who will gleefully follow their false prophets and demagogues to war, to
ruin and, eventually, to global annihilation.
In a civilized nation -- one where the 27%-ers are shunned instead of
pandered-- these Post Modern Elmer Gantrys would be nothing but another
clutch of public transit Bible Screamers: spurned and perhaps pitied by
decent citizens and driven off with flung curses and pocket change.
This is exactly why the whole of the Right -- from their “Fuck Everyone But
Me” ideology to their degenerate perversion of genuine Christianity --
ultimately cannot be saved.
We cannot co-exist; in the end, they and all of their meatheaded darkness
need to be electorally and culturally bulldozed into a pit and covered with
quicklime.
Because neither our generous nation nor the Christian faith will ever be
safe until people like this are considered a joke.
A bad joke.
A memory of a bad joke.
From
me in 2011, on the occasion of Arianna Huffington doing what she had planned to do all
along: cashing out by cashing in on all that "citizen journalism" that she had
conned chumps into handing over to her for free
I wonder which of her books about corporate cruelty -- "Pigs at the Trough"
or perhaps "Third World America: How Our Politicians Are Abandoning the
Middle Class and Betraying the American Dream"? -- Ms. Huffington offered as
a lovely parting gift to the
900 journalists and others who were sacked in order to fund her AOL windfall.
I also wonder which of her books on the villainy and irredeemable insanity
of the Right -- "Fanatics & Fools" or "Right Is Wrong: How the Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded the Constitution, and
Made Us All Less Safe" -- she offered as a lovely Welcome Wagon token to the
irredeemably bent, lunatic fringe Right wing propagandist Andrew Breitbart
as he was brought
on-board the Huffington Pose Post as a front-page contributor? (Having enticed Bloody Mary Matalin into coming on her dreadful radio
show to espouse the virtues of civility and Centrism, and spent a chunk of
her winter canoodling at Davos with our
Ant Overlords,
Me again,
in 2012:
More than enough years of Conservative treachery and treason clearly visible
as far as the eye can see for anyone with a functional cerebral cortex and a
conscience to figure that the GOP is an irredeemable shitpile of
bigots, Christopaths and plutocrats, who will never stop hag-riding this
country from one disaster to another until they are driven to political
extinction.
You might remember in 2016 when Hillary Clinton had the guts to tell the
simple truth about the MAGA meatheads --
"Now, some of those folks – they are irredeemable, but thankfully, they are
not America."
-- and took all kinds of shit from all the Very Serious People including, of
course, David Fucking Brooks.
On Meet the Press. Above the chyron,
"Basket of Deplorables? -- How Will This Impact Clinton?"
Mr. David Fucking Brooks (along with Mr. Tom Brokaw, another multi-millionaire
professional Both Siderist and co-owner of the state Montana), elected to kill
irony outright and bury it in a shallow grave by whipping himself into a high
dudgeon and lecture Hillary Clinton on the unseemliness of a rich person such
as herself using her fancy-schmancy college-graduate language
to tell the plain, hairy. ugly truth about the Trumpkins:
DAVID BROOKS: You know, first, it was a terrible week for politics. We've
had a race to the bottom before, but this was, like, at speed, like, who's
Usain Bolt speed to the bottom, these two. I was struck by another sentence
in that quote about the deplorables, that they are "irredeemable."
There's a reason no religion believes that. Because if you believe people
are irredeemable, you're saying they somehow lack redeemable souls, they are
somehow in a lesser category of human beings and that's just a dark, dark
world view. And that's always been the risk with Clinton. As President, she
can be very hardworking, very effective, very efficient, but there's a dark
world view that is semi Nixonian lurking in there.
...
DAVID BROOKS: People, even the people that say repugnant things at Trump
rallies, are complicated and they're driven by complicated fears and
anxieties to sometimes do some things, sometimes do beautiful things. And
so, the truism that you hate the sin, but don't hate the sinner applies to
politics just as well and she was hating the sinner.
Yes, this is the same David Fucking Brooks who somehow managed to forgot that
he spent pretty much the entire Dubya administration getting paid handsomely
by Bloody Bill Kristol to dismiss us dirty, disreputable, terrorist-loving,
"netroots" scum as 100% irredeemable.
And what would a fake debate over the application of the word
"irredeemable" be without some Bush Regime Dead Ender using their commanding
position in the media to dismiss the entire issue with a wave of their
all-purpose, all-occasion Both Sides Do It magic wand?
Moderation, then, is out of step with the times, which are
characterized by populist anger and widespread anxiety, by cross-partisan animosity and dogmatic certainty. Those with whom we have political disagreements are not only
wrong; they are often judged to be evil and irredeemable.
...
The concern some of us have is that even before Mr. Trump set foot on
the political stage, America was becoming a bit more like the Sahara or
the Arctic Circle than a temperate zone; that moderation was passé in both parties and that no politician would
defend it as a political virtue...
From me again,
in 2017:
The GOP That Failed
Meditate on this.
Republicans have elected the two worst presidents in modern history,
back-to-back.
They obediently supported those Failed Presidents long after any sane person
could see that they were irredeemable fuck-ups.
They used the collective might of their Pretty Hate Machine and their
infinite capacity for Strategic Forgettery to mercilessly slander apostates
and heretics and lobotomize out of existence the myriad pustulent
hypocrisies that make the rest of the world look at them in grim and
horrified amusement.
They spent the eight year interregnum between their Failed Presidents
fighting like mad dogs to sabotaging and slander any attempt by President
Obama to clean up their disasters. They pissed on every olive branch
they were offered. They mocked normal political compromise as
cowardice. And to survive the onslaught of a which they could no longer
comprehend, they burrowing ever deeper into the Breitbart News Dumpster for
comforting lies and conspiracies.
They have proudly thrown their lot in with the worst scum in the country
over and over and over again.
They have passed the point of no return.
As I said at the top. on the one hand, it's always encouraging when the slower
kids start to catch up.
On the other hand, these slower kids really, really don't like
it when you remind them --
-- that we dirty, disreputable Liberals got there long, long ago and, for our
sins, were universally mocked and dismissed as alarmist crackpots by these very same slower kids.
