I can pray all day & God won't come. But if I call 911 the Devil be here.

by va

I went away last weekend and returned to a world of pus dripping stupidity. On Monday morning, wanting to catch up, I tried to sort out who was bitter, elitist, who betrayed their elitism by decrying elitist allegations of bitterness… and then I went to find a bottle of soda, Pop Rocks, and a trampoline.

Man, none of that shit matters. The atrocity of a debate doesn’t matter. If there is any message you can take from ABC and the debate, it’s twofold:

1)The media sees politics as a bowl of Trix

2)You’re a silly white motherfucking rabbit

Fuck that noise. What matters is that we’ve gone from the era of “I am not a crook!” to “Yeah, I’m a war criminal. What of it?” But no, Charlie Gibson wants to talk about Billy Ayers, presumably because he’s worried that as President, Barak Obama might secretly blow up federal monuments, or otherwise take that shit down from the inside, motherfucker.

Fuck. Fine, Charlie Gibson, you want to talk about Billy Ayers? Maybe we should wonder why the fuck it is that this highly evil, Known Terrorist of Terroristic Proportions is presently walking around, free to profess at the University of Chicago UIC, serve on boards, and yes, to blog when he is such a radical terroristical terrorist.

Well, after a little googling, it turns out "All charges against him were dropped because of prosecutorial misconduct during the long search for the fugitives." Well that’s interesting. What kind of misconduct are we talking about here? Oh right: illegal surveillance. Oh, right: the FBI investigated the Weathermen under the auspices of cointelpro, J. Edgar Hoover’s pet project to disrupt leftist organizations by any means necessary, including straight up murder, for example of Chicago community organizer Fred Hampton, and, though they didn’t get to carry it out, of Martin Luther King, Jr. Fuck fuck fuckity fuck them, the fuckers. And, as a result of such baldly illegal investigative practices, Evil Terrorist Billy Ayers was sentenced to a couple years’ probation and a fine.

The question, then, isn’t why Obama served on some board with Ayers, but why Charlie Gibson and the right wing smear machine are so squarely on the side of utterly corrupt law enforcement. Did Chuckie’s First Mercedes get a window smashed during the days of rage or something? Or is it that he wants everyone who’s anyone to denounce and reject and deject and renounce anyone, like Ayers, who’s unapologetically anti-war and anti-establishment?

It's fine and all to complain about the substance-free nature of the debate the other day, but let's don't lose sight of what's actually at stake: the extent to which our discourse is or isn't about the core of rot at the center of just about every law enforcement agency there is, from the NSA to the CIA, right down to NYPD counterterrorism, who thinks that entrapment is just as good as intelligence gathering. Not to mention the core of rot at the heart of our elected governing bodies. The other night ABC told Democrats to stick it. Well fuck them, but more importantly fuck everyone they're protecting.

Update: Fucking spectacular.

Update II: Whoever compiled the FBI report was such a square, daddy-O. Such intriguing questions are pondered as, "What motivated the Weatherpeople?" and who was teaching "the youthful revolutionary...how to create revolution." (Answer: Cuba)

"Fuck fuck fuckity fuck them, the fuckers." that must have felt pretty writing that. It sure was reading it.

I meant "pretty good" of course. Oy.

Must we use such language?

Monday is Patriot's Day here in Blue Blue Massachusetts, a day when we remember 1776 and the first blood drawn in a successful fucking revolution against tyranny.

"I'm a war criminal; so what?"

So what? I think when President Cain is sworn in there will be hell to pay.
Unless the finals of American Idol are on.

Must we use such language?

No, but it helps. Outstanding.

Certain people would do well to remember Bastille Day. It could happen again.

Must we use such language?

Yes, we fucking must.

briliant post. Oh, by the way, I know bill ayres and he's no lenin. the guy's dad was an IBM exec, for god's sake.

If it's ok to slam Obama for a connection with Ayers when will the press begin demanding accountability regarding virtually all on the right and their gleeful acceptance of convicted felon G. Gordon Liddy?
Kind of like the way Chomsky is some beyond the fringe monster no good person should be seen with but VP Vader can grant interviews to noted centrist and all around good guy Rush Limbaugh.
Fuck fuck fuckity fuck those fuckers indeed.
And to all you responding to Margaret Dumont please remember, we're fighting for this woman's honor, which is more than she ever did.
