The rotating talking heads of Limbaugh, Palin, Hannity, etc. suffice. The corporatist Hydra is an elusive target.<br /><br />Daisy,<br />I&#39;l share my breaking news at your blog:<br /><br />Did you hear the news? It turns out the Birthers themselves were, in fact, not born. They were all hatched at the Fox Zombie Factory.<br /><br />The Birther Species is similar to humans but their hearing is limited to the frequencies of fellow Birthers. They literally cannot hear anything outside their cult. Nor can they see anything other than Fox on a TV screen, apart from a fuzzy picture of Lou Dobbs.<br /><br />DO NOT TRY TO COMMUNICATE WITH THEM! They perceive any outside communication as a threat and will become hostile when spoken to.Dave Dubyahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03279370558997246976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-85106207436720269832009-08-06T11:41:07.242-04:002009-08-06T11:41:07.242-04:00<a href="http://daisysdeadair.blogspot.com/2009/08/were-all-birthers-now-capricorn-one.html" rel="nofollow">I wrote about the birthers too!</a> Great minds think alike, Dave.<br /><br />They are just so <i>ripe</i> for ridicule...DaisyDeadheadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17993200276152025235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-86971336251381773402009-08-06T08:33:40.473-04:002009-08-06T08:33:40.473-04:00Dave - I saw that Maddow piece on the powers that are behind the anger. Scary, but I don&#39;t see one person, ready to be the face of all these lies. Perhaps that&#39;s why Palin quit as governor, perhaps she is watching and waiting.Holte Enderhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10356437917387847542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-1861543354397354502009-08-05T12:29:06.313-04:002009-08-05T12:29:06.313-04:00Tim,<br />We have as many reasons to distrust Democrats as we do to despise Republicans, along with a fair amount of crossover as well. Too many dems are exactly the same kind of corpowhores as repubs.<br /><br />Being the old-fashioned Americans we are, we understand that Will Rogers saw it clearly way back when. &quot;I belong to no organized party. I am a Democrat.&quot;<br /><br />He nailed it on the republicans too. <br /><br />&quot;The whole trouble with the Republicans is their fear of an increase in income tax, especially on higher incomes.&quot;<br /><br />&quot;Republicans take care of big money, for big money takes care of them.&quot;<br /><br />Too bad most of the country will never listen to that great American&#39;s enduring wisdom.Dave Dubyahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03279370558997246976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-72995844958673304062009-08-05T05:06:30.521-04:002009-08-05T05:06:30.521-04:00The reason the Repugs are so strong is that they are the largest party. The Democrats are actually a half dozen small parties, all going under the &#39;Democrat&#39; name. Kind of like rogue franchisees. Their greed is just as great as the Repugs. Even with a fillibuster-proof 60 seat majority, the Senate can not get anything done. They&#39;ll have to have at least a 93 seat majority before we see anything truly meaningful pass.Brother Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08603553502416272941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-18863767332078854732009-08-01T15:55:48.694-04:002009-08-01T15:55:48.694-04:00Tom,<br />The troubling thing about the Birthers is that they exist. Radical Right Wing propaganda is running full steam and producing the desired brainwashing of Americans. We still have essentially a dictatorship of Right Wing power, either by legislation or obstruction. <br /><br />Mauigirl,<br />The problem with crybabies and nuts is nobody can have a reasonable discussion with them.<br /><br />Suzan,<br />Now, don&#39;t go and make my head swell up more than it already is.<br />Thank you so much, though.<br /><br />Jim, <br />It is frightening and bodes ill for our country when such a large part of our population is so ignorant. Jefferson would weep if he knew what happened to America.<br /><br />DCap, <br />What can one do when sanity is scorned and insanity embraced?<br /><br />I want to thank you for your series of posts on health care.

They&#39;re entertaining, plus they&#39;re making the Republican Party squirm, and that&#39;s a good thing.<br /><br />Republicans passed a unanimous resolution honoring Hawaii&#39;s 50th anniversary as a state; that was considered a subtle way for the Republican Party to distance themselves from the Birthers. I think the Birthers should be pinned around the neck of the Republican Party, so we can watch them squirm and try to shake off the albatross.Tom Harperhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-9813241451404874072009-07-30T10:54:42.162-04:002009-07-30T10:54:42.162-04:00Gasp!
