I have some College buddies and their various friends participating in a sort of "political" email thread....At first, it was entertaining to see how crazed (almost from a sociological study standpoint)they would be in their rantings....then it started getting scarier by the day and then it was starting to become a distraction (deliberate I'm convinced) from me focusing on the things I'm doing to help the Kerry campaign. Now, I'm just plain convinced these people are nuts and if anything are motivating me to work as hard as I can for the Kerry campaign.
Meanwhile, I thought I'd post a few of the "comments" coming from them....Here you go:
"You and your celebrity pals better reserve a therapist's couch or a chateau in France next to Alex Baldwin ASAP, because after Nov. 2 you and they are going to be positively apoplectic with rage: "How are the American people so STUPID?!" you'll scream through your tears - and therein lies the answer: you Dems condescend to know what's better for Joe and Julie than Joe and Julie do. From effectively fighting terrorism to educating inner city kids, your candidates use abstractions and double-speak to avoid explaining what the fuck it is they'll actually DO, and Joe and Julie see through the conscension vieled as "nuance," they resent being taken for gullible, and they won't have it - and they're far more plentiful and likely to vote than your airport security guard who gave you the thumbs up because of your Kerry button on your purse. I'm an "idiot" huh Teresa? We'll see about that. And gee, if only bumper stickers equaled votes - I tell you, at least in SF, I don't don a "W" bumper sticker because I know the maturity level of the typical Conformist Lefty in this city - in non-swing state California, slashed tires and broken windows aren't worth the trouble. It's safe to say that most Conservatives are too civilized to lower themselves to vandalism (they believe in right and wrong, see) while I'd estimate 50% of Brown Shirt Libs have no such reservation (maybe I'll make a documentary), so of course more Kerry/Edwards folks feel safe flying the colors. (And before you throw a gunned-down abortion doctor in my face, I'll offer up the cop-killing Mumia.) Today's thugs are on the "peace-loving" dippy left - in Seattle with the WTO, in SF/NYC breaking windows at war protests, and on any campus on which David Horowitz raises his voice to speak. You can't win on the facts so you call us names and shout us down - or, of course, litigate. I can't wait for the post-election lawsuits - you're no doubt already planning these, right?"
-or- try this one:
"Zell the Magnificent delivered a body blow w/his convention speech, this is a mallet to Kerry's prominent jaw. How much more can one man take b/f he is begging Bill and Hill to pull a Torch job on him? Remember where you heard it first. Kerry will be summoned to the foot of Don Clintonia. No one will know that he goes to see Clinton, and you won't even notice anything different about Kerry, b/c he'll be droning on about National Guards, tax cuts for the rich, race baiting, Mike Moore fiction, Halliburton, etc., etc.. He'll come out and no one will know for several days, and then Kerry will resign from the race for personal problems. If the info from the meeting ever gets out it will come from the Clintonistas. They need to do three things b/f this happens. The first is Willy's ticker needs to get a little better. Apparently after a person receives a quadruple bypass, they aren't really themselves for several weeks. You may think this would be enough for me to call off my prediction, but it's not. It's admittedly pure postulation, done w/nothing other than a political hunch, but wouldn't it be wild if it did happen? The other thing that needs to happen is that there needs to be a viable modlib hawk (don't know if one exists) who would be an improvement over Kerry, in terms of people trusting his ability to lead. As it stands now, you guys may have just 42 votes in the Senate if GW gets around 53-54% of the vote. Did you know what percentage of the Mid-term elections the Republicans won in 2002? 53.7%. They need a general election candidate that keeps the Dems at 48%. I think Evan Bayh would come close to that. Thirdly, either the Clintonistas or GW's folks will let loose w/their whopper. Then Kerry resigns, and he is quickly replaced. You may think it fiction, but it's only a prediction."
-finally- how about this one - His last name is Ryder - I call it the "Ryder Doctrine for how to handle terrorism":
"How do you not consider Islamofascism and Terrorism not to be a global threat? B/c there haven't been any attacks in Antarctica yet? This is exactly what I have been talking about. Your side cannot be trusted to run the national security of this country or the War on Terror, b/c like Chamberlain, you have failed to realize the extent of the threat, or to even address the scope of the threat around us. What was 9/11 in your world? Was that created by the hate engendered by GW's arrogance? You are pathetic in your naivete, and you are the exact type of person that has lead real patriots like Zell Miller to leave your party. So you want us not to go after the Terrorists for fear that it will alienate more Islamofascists? Don't you think that by lying low and using nuance and sensitivity we will be able to avoid attack? Isn't that what Russia did? Please grow some balls. My solution, "The Ryder Doctrine" as you refer to it is clearly stated as "don't be a posturing pussy - instead, go after and kill all the terrorists and those that support them, w/no remorse." ____________________________________________________________________
Sorry, I just needed to share this with the DU, because its just so amazing to read....it would be funny almost if it wasn't real and that these people follow Bu$h/FUCheney lockstep....instead, its scary...
