??Yeah, they'll advise them alright. They'll advise them to die and stop costing their children and society money and bother. ?

Well, I don't know about you, but if I went to a doctor to get well, and he or she told me to drop dead instead, I'd find me a new doc. But again, the GOP's strategy is based on the premise that you're stupid enough to believe some pretty stupid claims. Like that the medical profession would embrace such an anti-Hippocratic oath directive, and that our elders, who have clung to life through depressions, wars and multiple Republican administrations, would obediently check out upon request.

Fortunately my family is chuck full of greatest generation elders. And I can tell ya, I'd want to be well out of testicular-kicking range if I were to even suggest such a thing.


Environmentalists: The Handmaidens of Satan!

Did you know that God hates environmentalists? Sure does. In particular He's all hot under the almighty collar over all those lies they tell about global warming. It's all a plot to, to, ? well to something. Republicans are not quite clear what the whole global warming thing is about, but they suspect that socialism is lurking in there somewhere. Oh, and smaller cars and gasp mass transit, which is just socialism on wheels.

Remember Dick Army? Well he's on the case:

??What I ??m suggesting is we have a sort of an eco-evangelical hysteria going on and it leads me to almost wonder if we are becoming a nation of environmental hypochondriacs....Let me say I take it as an article of faith if the lord God almighty made the heavens and the Earth, and he made them to his satisfaction and it is quite pretentious of we little weaklings here on earth to think that, that we are going to destroy God ??s creation. ?

That's right... God isn't about to destroy His own work... except of course New Orleans. But in that case He was just smiting the holy hell out the gays down there who. by the way, were asking for it dressing like that. And about those polar icecaps -- He was never happy with the way that turned out. So, all that melting is just a bit of Almighty redecorating. Then there's those poor polar bears -- well even God can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs, right?

Anyway, the GOP wants you to know that everything is unfolding just as intended. After all, even if it turns out to be true that human activity is turning the planet toxic to humans, this is not out of character. God has a history of waking up on the wrong side of the cloud from time to time and going all cranky on mankind, with the smiting, floods, plagues, infestations, oozing sores and such.

So, if it happens, we had it coming.

In the meantime the GOP wants you to know they have the environmentalists pegged for what they are; socialist dupes and handmaidens of Satan... which are, of course, one and the same.


Obama: Anti-Christ or Manchurian Candidate?

This wouldn't be the first time that life imitated art. I speak, of course of the vintage film, The Manchurian Candidate. And now it's happened for real. We've elected a ??feriner, ? President of the United States of America.

Here's how it worked. (Make sure your tinfoil hat is on tight.)

So, this baby was born in Kenya back in August, 1961. The kid was half black and half-white and was recognized immediately as The Chosen One. This was known because, on his birthday a star appeared over Kenya -- a liberal star. (They knew this because it was a blue star.)

The "they" have yet to be identified, but there are indications they were from a shadowy group that goes by the acronym, ACORN.
