King's statement is the epitome of hypocrisy with more than a dash of irony in that in today's Homeland, the security apparatus that he so ardently defends would put Congressman King himself well within the three-hop search pattern analysis. This is what is used by the NSA in their ongoing data-mining activities and dragnet searches that target millions of law-abiding Americans who don't pal around with terrorists with the information then stored in huge facilities like that one out in Utah for some yet to be defined future use. Somehow I doubt that a made man like King is subject to the same scrutiny as the rabble is in this country.
But I digress...
The particularly cruel aspect of the Jean McConville case is that happened at Christmastime, the very holiday that Republicans including King love to wrap in the luminous aura of sanctimony on an annual basis despite the fact that in this country baby Jesus was long ago relegated to playing second banana to big retail capitalist Santa Claus. That however is a story for another time but I have absolutely no doubt that Peter King thoroughly enjoyed his 1972 Christmas dinner while Jean McConville's body was rotting in an unmarked grave and her children were deprived of their mommy.
Not that any reasonable person would ever accuse a Republican of being anything other than a greedy, self-serving, hypocritical, mean and insensitive prick but Peter King takes this to another level. Unfortunately though as we are hobbled by the limited and obviously rigged system of "representative democracy" that we have in America a pig like King is able to hold onto a disproportionate amount of power for an extended time. This being due to flaws built into the system that allow it despite him only actually representing a tiny fraction of the national population. The removal of this crazed demagogue and supporter of terrorists can only be achieved by those residing within his own district with everyone else shut out of having a say despite falling under the domain of his Homeland Security Committee gig. The Second Congressional District of New York needs to step up to the plate for the sake of the country and just vote this piece of sh*t out of office come November.
I would hope that for the benefit of all of America as well as the concept of justice itself that his opponent will take full advantage of his history of serial hypocrisy and attack him relentlessly so as to help to rid us all of this most loathsome man forever.
