I JUST REALIZED...

...that the previous post includes a conservative reaction to a conservative liar... a bit of violent aggression wished against Sean Hannity.

But sometimes, it's necessary to fight 'em on their turf.

That's the thing about conservatives. Most of them are wussies. I mean, Newt Gingrich? One hit to his well tended belly and he'd be down for the count. And Hannity? He talks a good game, but my bet is that he's a pantywaist like the rest of them.

Now Ann Coulter would be tough match. But just make sure you catch her early in the day before she's had a chance to unhinge her jaw and nourish herself on the spleens of young children.

FUCKS NEWS.

Certainly worth sending around to people with minds. A panoply of Fox News smears against Barack Obama.

I would really love a chance to dope slap Sean Hannity. Boy that would count as "hot fun in the summertime". Just one hit to knock him on his head, or his ass...not that he can tell the difference between the two.

EVENING VARE...VERY NICE...

Does anyone remember that Wendy's ad from the 80's of the Soviet fashion show? The ad where a bunch of plebes stand silently in a dark barn of some sort while an overweight babushka models the same hideous dress while another woman calls out "swim wear...very nice" "evening wear...very nice." It was part of the larger message to Americans that the Soviet system created services and systems that don't work for consumers while U-S capitalism created services and systems that were consumer friendly.

Well, I don't think we can make fun of Soviet-era service industries anymore. I'm sitting at San Francisco International Airport waiting for a four-hour delayed flight to Chicago O'Hare on United. We're delayed because they couldn't decide which type of 767 to use. And the thing is this: I am no longer surprised or shocked by the Soviet nature of our airlines, and other services. Heck, is anyone surprised to get to the airport and find that their airline using the logistical skills and customer service tactics of Aeroflot? Is anyone surprised to drive on roads that only a Yugo would love?

Slowly, but surely, the U-S is becoming the old decrepit system that only works for the rich (dare I say GOP) elite. And it's part of the plan... to create a privatized system of services in which the rich will get the good stuff and the middle class (what's left of it) and poor will get the mediocre or purely inadequate stuff. From police to health care to transportation. The rich (again GOP) will have private security, private hospitals, and private planes. The rest of us will get, well, the shit.

Let's face it; the Republican Party is our Politburo. George W Bush is our Brezhnev; Dick Cheney our Stalin. And John McCain fits perfectly as our Andropov or Chernenko...the old and tired last gasp of our own Soviet system.

Who will be our Gorbachev? Actually, are we too far gone for reform?
