Occupy Oakland Burns Flags

Remember all the chatter from Chris Christie and others about the Occupants being just like Tea Partiers? Will the parallels ever end? Public defecation. Sexual assault. Vandalism. Oh, and flag-burning too. It's just about impossible to tell the difference from an Occupant and a Tea Sipper. Identical twins, I tell ya. THE OCCUPY MOVEMENT SHOWS ITS TRUE COLORS

Is Todd Akin All That Bad?

Yes.

Once more I am frustrated with both the mainstream media and the hardcore conservatives. The MSM emphasizes Akin's insensitivity. The Huckabee crowd emphasizes the fact that Todd Akin has apologized. They both miss the crux of the matter.

Joe Wilson stood up and yelled, "You lie" to President Obama. Truer words were never spoken but it was conduct unbecoming an elected official and it disrespected the Office of the Presidency (Not that Obama himself is above disrespecting the office but that is a different story for a different time.) Joe Wilson immediately apologized, his war chest swelled and we all moved on.

There is absolutely no reason for Todd Akin to apologize. If he genuinely believes that it is not possible for a woman to get pregnant by rape, he should express that belief, sensitivity be damned. I happen to believe that women carry two X chromosones. I belief it wholeheartedly. I will express that opinion publicly. If someone is offended by my beliefs,tough! I will not apologize no matter how insensitive I might appear or how badly I might want to get elected.

Todd Akin genuinely believes (or did genuinely believe until his phone started ringing incessantly) that a woman cannot be impregnated by a rapist. Reflect on that for a moment. Have you ever heard  a more ridiculous assertion stated in earnest? Not only is this foolish idea not based in science, it is not based in religion, folklore, mythology, or even pop culture.

Some of Lyndon LaRouche's conspiracy theories can rival Akin's silliness but in the end, Akin's comments reign supreme as the most ludicrous I have ever heard. An apology is appropriate for bad manners. But Akin did not display bad manners and thus, his apology is meaningless.

Todd Akin ia a sad excuse for a martyr. The issue is not manners, but gross stupidity. Sadly, gross stupidity cannot be wiped away by a mea culpa. Maybe we shouldn't throw Akin under the bus but we should politely ask him to leave and keep his mouth shut. I am willing to pitch in a lolly pop and a couple of shiny objects if it helps the cause.

Why I am Leery of The Teavangelical Coalition

Todd Akin. The reason why Akin made the ridiculous comments about "legitimate rape" is not because he is insensitive to women, but rather because he holds wacky beliefs. Not all Evangelicals are this silly any more than all Moslems are terrorists. But most terrorists are Moslems and absurd comments still spring forth from the mouths of Evangelicals in disproportionate numbers.

The Tea Party started shortly after Rick Santelli's legendary impromptu rant. Chicago hosted one of the first Tea Party protests. I doubt if a single person in the crowd at Susan Roesgen's meltdown believed that women could not be impregnated by rape. Three years later the original Tea Party types are less visible and the Akins are front and center. Could it be Gresham's Law at work?

The McCaskill seat was a slam dunk but it might fall back into the blue column. That would be a shame. But say what you may about the sitting Senator, she will never say anything half as stupid as Todd Akin's scientific proclamation.

Todd Akin: Dumbass Excelsior.

Is The White House Harrassing You?

The Obama Administration is not merely inept, they are also corrupt and yes, they are bullies. Perhaps the word "bully" understates the gravity of the situation. What do we call a morally vapid group who uses the IRS to harass and intimidate nascent Tea Party organizations, who uses the DOJ to harass and intimidate Romney donors and who use social media to spy on and harass and intimidate Obama critics.

We probably do not call those cute little miscreants Butch or Spike or Sluggo. We probably call them fascist thugs. That is what they are.

Aside. The following links to thetrenches, a blog that now offers a $20,000 reward for Obama's college transcripts. $20k? If a news organizationtells Obama's story they can expect at least $20 million in book sales alone. It would be a much larger and further reaching reward than 20 mill. The fact that struggling media dinosaurs have chosen to voluntarily forego vast financial rewards speaks volumes about the size of the stakes involved.

Obama Sunday Worship Extraordinaire

Four years in "The Twilight Zone" and we are still standing. I am still waiting for the CIA agent to jump out of the shadows and reveal how his people brainwashed the world. "Yes, we can even make a lowly community organizer president. In fact, we already have."

Maybe someday we can laugh at those wacky days when America became Jonestown. Not yet. The worship still activates my creep vibe. This is Berlin, 1936. The stakes could not be higher.

This blog has 73 posts with a "Sunday Worship" label. Some of them were spoof and satire. Some of the posts involved more cheerleading than literal worship. But in some of them, the people literally pray to Obama. They assign magical powers to the community organizer. They compare him to God. They even rewrite spiritual songs to praise Obama.

One common denominator: Most of the Obama worship was produced in 2008. A few more were released in early 2009. Then...Silence.

Let us recall the days when America went Jonestown and salute the dupes who gave us a good laugh
