Cast thy mind into the dark backward and abysm of Time. Because a dark, backward abysm is just we're we're headed.
You may recall that back this spring Greater Wingnuttia was aghast, and shocked, just shocked, at the entirely imaginary news that George Soros-funded ACORN/Code Pink goon squads were going to show up and disrupt their ridiculous "Tea Parties." Michelle Malkin breathlessly broke the news (she does everything breathlessly, and the resultant oxygen deficiency explains an awful lot) thusly:
Egad. Alarums and excursions! Wizbang revealed that an even more sinister figure stood behind Soros in this wicked conspiracy to shut down the Tea Parties: Barack Obama, whose White House has "identified scapegoats and then mobilized (via ACORN) trained protesters to harass them." Trained protesters intending to suppress free and open debate at peaceful gatherings! Sounds "Nixonian"! In light of this news, the always entertaining Moe Lane instructed the brethren as to the True Motives of the Activist Left:
Always remember: you are what they want to be, and cannot be. Do not indulge their inferiority.
And Andrew Klavan gave us this Very Serious video, where he advanced the thesis that "the Left has run out of effective arguments; the only one they have left is SHUT-UP," as evidenced by the liberal embrace of, among other bugbears like the Fairness Doctrine, "net neutrality" (and if that doesn't make any sense to you, don't worry, Klavan doesn't understand what he's talking about, either).
Which brings us to today, where by the miracle of wingnut headcase engineering, the Moral Wall Switch for coordinated attempts to disrupt other people's public events has been hastily and incompetently flipped from Evil to Good. To wit, here's the Tea Party-associated Freedom Works offering advice to Tea-Baggers about how best to disrupt town-hall meetings held by elected Democratic officials who want to discuss healthcare with their constituents:
– Be Disruptive Early And Often: “You need to rock-the-boat early in the Rep’s presentation, Watch for an opportunity to yell out and challenge the Rep’s statements early.”
– Try To “Rattle Him,” Not Have An Intelligent Debate: The goal is to rattle him, get him off his prepared script and agenda. If he says something outrageous, stand up and shout out and sit right back down. Look for these opportunities before he even takes questions.”
Unsurprisingly, this is precisely what the Tea-Baggers have been doing. (Check out the video especially.)
And what has been the reaction from those who invented imaginary liberal behavior and are watching as their side actually does precisely the stuff they only pretended liberals were doing and which they denounced as Wicked, Deranged, and Perfidious?
Cheering it on, of course. Duh.
Malkin. Wizbang. Moe Lane. Nothing yet from Klavin, but in the meanwhile we give you this manure from his PJ's stablemate.
The hypocrisy here is par for the course, but no less astonishing simply because we've seen it before ad nauseam. The fact that they are quite literally acting out their own hallucinations is more than a little extraordinary, though.
Here, check this out, from last April. It's the quintessence of wingnutism: the projection of projection.
It's fucking insane. Alert the media.
Fuck me.
MAS. One two OMIGOD. Two-faced doesn't cover it. But let's light the BS signal anyhow.
