My sister lives in a suburb of Seattle. Apparently, she has a Kerry sign or something on her place. This morning, she found a piece of paper taped to her door. In large, dark, sans-serif type, it proclaims:
AMERICA WON!
WHO LOST?
THE TREASONOUS FRAUD, HIS GUTTER CAMPAIGN, the HATE-AMERICA LEFT, BIG MEDIA, HOLLYWOOD, ACADEMIA, the NEA, the P-I [that would be the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, if I remember the name correctly], SEATTLE TIMES, PBS, NPR, and KIRO'S TRASHY EVENING SLEAZEBAGS...
(and many naive citizens who were hoodwinked by the scoundrel!)
Pretty charming, eh? I'm impressed that all the words are spelled right, and a hyphen has been used correctly. Clearly, this was made by some of those tool-using gopsters. And how brave they are! They managed to nerve themselves all the way to the front door of one of the hated foe -- a single mother with a daughter -- and boldly tape their message of love and understanding to her door before leaving.
We can all sleep better tonight, knowing these gallant stewards of the public discourse are watching our windows in the dark. Hoodwinked by the scoundrel? Godfrey Daniel! WC Fields lives, as a Republican!
Big Media? Like Clear Channel, Sinclair, Fox, and like that? Oh, sorry, no, they mean the Big Commie Media, obviously. The ones who have been on George Bush's back for the last four years, maliciously reporting about one tenth of the crap he's been pulling, and who have been insufficiently loud in the singing of his praises. They all hate us anyhow, so let's drop the Big One now!
Bunch of wimps. They've had all three branches of the government for the last four years, and all they do is wet themselves over the prospect that somebody somewhere might (gasp!) disagree with their enlightened wisdom. When last I heard from her, my sister was trying to compose a reply that incorporated forgiveness in its message. Man, she's asking for it! Forgive is what Jesus and his lefty ilk would do.
