Abandon HOPE in “Change”
| 
Author: 
It’s become common to call the Freshman Teabagger Reps in the House “hostage takers” for their willingness to squeeze the life out of vital programs which aim to improve the lot of those on the wrong side of Reaganomics, but these Teabaggers should more accurately be labeled what they are – Terrorists – willing to inflict massive harm on innocent victims to achieve political goals – even if it means the nation’s and the world’s economy crashes into Depression.
Unfortunately, rather than a leader with a backbone and stomach to fight these terrorists, we have Obama… someone who has confused bipartisan “compromise” with “surrender” and whose willingness to offer Social Security and Medicare to those who want them destroyed has done more damage to what was left of the Democratic Party’s core principles of giving voice to the working class in the halls of power than any Teabag terrorist could ever have dreamed during a Republican administration.
On Saturday, Obama negotiated a debt deal in private with Mitch McConnell, the man who said his greatest political objective was not to create jobs for the unemployed, but to make Obama a one-term President. Given that Obama pines for Republican love like a battered spouse pining for an abuser, it’s not surprising Obama met with his turtle-looking closet-case nemesis without any of his supposed Democratic allies – who just can’t understand their star-crossed love.

Right Wingers Desperate to Brand Giffords Shooter as “Left Wing Radical”
If you thought that the attempted assassination of Gabrielle Giffords, the murder of 5 other and the wounding of 14 attending a “Congress on Your Corner” event in Arizona would give right-wing hate peddlers a moment of reflection, then think again.
Not only did Right Wingers use the Giffords shooting as a fundraising opportunity, they also took the horrific crime against our elected representatives, innocent people and our system of government as an opportunity to propagate the tired “Liberal Fascism” lie once again.
With the successful right wing revision of our founding history freshly under their belt, right wingers are wasting no time re-writing the events of last weekend by frantically attempting to excuse their violent hate rhetoric and branding Jared Loughner as a lefty.
Right Wing cesspool WorldNetDaily has half a dozen headlines that scream of desperation – citing twitter posts from Loughner’s classmates stating he may have been inspired by the “radical leftist punk-rock band Anti-Flag.”
Another headline screamed, “Assassin’s politics lean ‘left wing, quite liberal… ‘Communist Manifesto,’ ‘Mein Kampf,’ listed as alleged gunman’s favorite reads.” This headline is really a twofer. Not only does it try to label Loughner as a Lefty, it propagates the Right’s frequent disingenuous meme equating Liberals with Nazis. Never mind that “Mein Kampf” is a right-wing tome, we know the Modern Right’s desire to deny their historical cousins is as pathological as Sarah Palin’s need to have her picture taken brandishing a loaded weapon.
Cons have long attempted to link Nazism with liberalism to downplay their own ideological ties to the fascist regime. Much of the neo-conservative playbook is taken directly from the most fundamental tenets of fascism. The inconvenient truth for right wingers is that Nazism was characterized by extreme nationalism, military domination, xenophobia, authoritarian leadership, and opposition to liberalism… in other words, an undeniably far-right political philosophy supported by many of Hitler’s American Capitalist contemporaries whose pro-corporate at-any-cost agenda bears an irrefutable resemblance to today’s right wing.

Whaddya Think Sarah? Is it Time for Your Supporters to Reload?
With the shooting of Representative Gabrielle Giffords, the right-wing apologists are out en masse, attempting to excuse the violent-rhetoric that always seems to flood our public discourse whenever America has a Democratic President.
As they are apt to do when Republican foot-in-mouth disease bites them in the ass, Republicans are positioning themselves as victims of the “lame stream media” rather that using this moment as an opportunity to take a long, hard, look at themselves and the consequences of their behavior.
It’s sad that “the Party of Personal Responsibility” only sticks to that motto when trying to deny children a school lunch program. When it comes to taking “Personal Responsibility” for stoking fear and inciting unbalanced people to commit acts of violence…. FORGET IT!
How are we ever going to face and rectify this problem, which is a threat to our system of government itself, if we put trying not to offend Sarah Palin and her ilk over confronting the toxic environment their violent discourse fosters by excusing their incessant use of militaristic metaphors that act as a dog-whistle call to action for unhinged elements already teetering on the edge.
The truth is what happened to Gabrielle Giffords is the consequence of the inflammatory hate-speech against Democrats conveniently seems to happen when we have a Democratic President.

Fear Isn’t Free – In Fact It’s Extremely Profitable for Michael Chertoff
Ahhhh! Freedom….. to be groin-groped by blue-gloved Transportation Security Administration agents, or photographed “naked” in a full-body X-ray device? These are the choices Ben Franklin couldn’t have imagined when he wrote in his notes to the Pennsylvania Assembly in 1775, “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
Some will cry that Franklin didn’t live in a post-9/11 world as they try to convince us that violations of our 4th Amendment rights are for our own good… as was every other whittling-away of the rights meant to protect the people from the power of the state – currently laying comfortably in bed with the power of big moneyed-interests with profit as the highest virtue.
With our elected politicians acting as representatives to the companies that pay them, it’s no surprise that the 2 companies that make the majority of airport security scanners have doubled their lobbying efforts over the past 9 months to convince Congress that “Security Theater” now playing at an airport near you is an absolute necessity.
Once again… just follow the money… and this time the trail leads right to the bank account of Michael Chertoff.

Mike Vanderboegh: Violence Inspiring Anti-Government Thug is Sucking on the Government Teat
Ain’t it just like a Republican to decry the system while simultaneously sucking on it’s teat? Mike Vanderboegh, of Pinson, Ala., former leader of a collection of microphallused thugs known as the Alabama Constitutional Militia, is yet another a case in point. Similar to the way we can set our clocks to the regular outing of anti-gay Republicans being exposed as self-loathing closet-cases bent on inflicting their manias on normal society, we can also randomly throw a rock at any Teabagger party to hit any one of the numerous hypocrites enjoying the freedom made possible by the Socialism of the government dole.
Mike Vanderboegh has garnered a lot of press in the last couple of days due to his inciting sore-loser moronic Cons like himself to break the windows of offices of Congressional Democrats who voted for Health Insurance Reform, which will keep Americans from dying or going bankrupt if they get sick. Given the utter hypocrisy and lack of irony these Teabagger types possess, many of them will themselves be afforded a more humane and comfortable existence due to the very Democrats they now seek to intimidate with their Nazi Brown Shirt tactics. Like other violent ideologues throughout history, Mike Vanderboegh and his functionally illiterate followers, angry that society manages to evolve despite their continual drag, have resorted to domestic terrorism in an attempt to frighten normal people (non-Republicans) into advancing their dead-ender agenda which, after 8 long years of Republican “governance,” has left the American middle class winning a race to the bottom.
Tired of Terrorism? Thank a Republican
Republicans Make Osama Bin Laden’s Dreams Come True.
Thom Hartmann schools Dinesh D’Souza about the fact that if we had followed Jimmy Carter’s proposed energy policy to get us off of foreign oil in 1977 we would not be in the mess we’re in now almost 33 years later. D’Souza actually admits that we would not be in the Middle East were it not for our dependence on that oil.
Fast forward to today… it is clear that Republicans have absolutely no vision for this country, and would rather slowly kill the dreams of our Founders, the American Middle Class AND the environment if it means making a quick buck for the Economic Royalists they truly represent. ALL of this plays right into the hands of the man they swear they want “Dead or Alive” but who they get much more mileage out of while “at large” and free to scare the the “freedom” off of inherent cowardly Republicans.

Republican Cowards Politicize American Lives
In spite of the fact that Barack Obama is doing his best to continue warmongering Bush policies as well as ingratiate the economic royalists with taxpayer’s money, it still isn’t good enough for the ruling elite who will stop at nothing to turn the “Land of the Free” into the “United States of Serfs and Lords.”
Case in point is Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the so-called “Christmas bomber,” who was allowed to fly although his name was in the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment database, known as TIDE, which is maintained by the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center.
Normal people (non-Republicans) are now being asked by President Obama to believe that the Nigerian man came close to blowing up 300 people on an airplane because of another failure to “connect the dots” in spite of the trillions of dollars the “small government” Republican GW Bush spent creating the Department of Homeland Security and the constant assault on our hard-won Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Republican Fear Mongering + Lies At Their Most Disingenuous
GOP Scrubs Attack Ads When DINO turns REPUG.
Suddenly Abusing Cancer Patients and Cheering For Radical Islam is OK or they exposing this just typical Republican mendacity again?
Normal People (Non-Republicans) will see this as just this minute’s example of Republican hypocricy but people who are stupid enough to vote Repugnantcant are stupid enough to be swayed by the right’s incessant disingenuous fear mongering and lies.
Today’s example of Republican hypocrisy centers around the National Republican Congressional Committee’s 180 degree turn regarding Representative Parker Griffith now that he has switched party affiliation from Democrat in Name Only to Repug.

Census Worker Death May Have Been Inspired by Right Wing Paranoid Ramblings
Crazy-eyed right wing Representative Michele Bachmann’s campaign to whip up anti-census paranoia in her America-hating supporters in an attempt to convince that our democratically elected government is the enemy just may have claimed another victim.
The FBI is currently investigating whether the death of Bill Sparkman, 51, found hanged from a tree near a Kentucky cemetery with the word “fed,” scrawled on his chest, was a victim of anti-government violence.
Joe Wilson Yells At Our Upitty African American President
Joe Wilson, the loudmouth Republican Representative from South Carolina and member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans has issued an apology for yelling “you lie” at the President of the United States during joint session of Congress.
Wilson, a darling of the health insurance industry that wishes to continue to suck profit out of American miseries, has a history of finding himself outraged by “uppity” African Americans.
The first public apology Wilson was forced to deliver came after he expressed denial when Essie Mae Washington-Williams revealed that she was the product of a coupling between her African America Mother and Wilson’s hero: Racist Congressman Strom Thurmond.
