Great stuff lately from the American Thinker, where you will always find the cutting edge of Conservative Thought, that is, if you look hard enough at some crazy, dull nonsense.
For instance, here is the always impressive Jack Cashill telling us that one of Barack Obama's adolescent poems was really written by the Negro Communist Guru he was secretly fucking because he really wanted to have sex with his wastrel miscegenist father, and this explains why when nowadays an American bomb lands in Pakistan, it is not a Freedom Bomb, but really a Secret Muslim Bomb. Key Pieces of the Puzzle:
* both poems are written in free verse and make ready use of what is called "enjambment" -- that is the abrupt continuation of a sentence from one line into the next.
* as poet Ian McMillan notes in the U.K. Guardian, "shink" literally means "to be hit in the face with a penis." I am not making this up.
He is not making this up. Well, that is all I need, I mean, along with the enjambment thing, anyway. These two nuggets alone, plus the record of Obama's first year in office, definitively prove the Obama = Marxist Nazi Bisexual Muslim Hate-America Plagiarist thesis. After all, as Cahill reminds us about Obama's Dreams from My Father:
The evidence that Obama pal and mentor Bill Ayers largely ghosted this memoir now overwhelms the objective reviewer.
Quite right. Cashill here points to what is pretty much ironclad proof that, for instance, this fellow lacks all objectivity. Is this person "overwhelmed by the evidence"? No! How damning! Quid pro forma mutatis mutandis Hanna Montanis. (Or, Hark! to the Cold Inexorable Logic.)
How can one fail to admire the high quality American Thinking you get at the American Thinker? And the fun doesn't stop! This is also wonderful -- somebody named Shortcakes Xavier Pumice (I improved his name out of kindness) arguing that you can't prove climate change is real because thermometers and satellites are only a "theory." Also, there were TV network situation comedies in the 1980s. Allow me to quote in full:
Diehard "Cheers" fans may recall that when the ever-amorous Sam Malone finally persuaded perennial gold-digger Rebecca Howe to give up waiting for "Mr. Right," she consoled herself by saying, "After all, it's not like Donald Trump or Robin Colcord is going to walk through the door and sweep me off my feet."
"Robin Colcord," of course, does not exist. The "Cheers" writing staff used a neat little trick to introduce a new character. They had Ms. Howe refer to the fictional "Robin Colcord" as a peer of the well-known Donald Trump, and -- voila! -- a mogul is born!
"Denialism" slouched into existence as a result of similar sort of legerdemain. In just the way in which the talented "Cheers" writing staff created a billionaire out of whole cloth by doing nothing more complicated than putting his name next to Donald Trump's, so too did the no-less-imaginative Climategate fabulists associate those who question the AGW thesis with Holocaust Deniers.
Please nobody tell him that "Rebecca Howe" and "Sam Malone" were also "made up characters" who don't actually exist. Oh dear and I am sorry if I have shattered any cherished illusions held by my readership.
If it is any consolation, I am willing to believe in "Coach" if he can be reached by means of seance or similar.
