There is a rumor being mass e-mailed amongst the Rovian lemmings and prominently posted on many conservative websites, which quotes Obama as saying "I only saw Rod Blagojevich one time ... and that was in the stands and from a distance at a Chicago Bears Football Game," followed by numerous photographs of Obama and Blagojevich together. Interspersed between the photographs are comments like "NUFF" SAID BY ME ALREADY, I think you know my thoughts ! The famous saying "the truth will set you free",,,,,well the truth nowdays (sic) won't change anything because the "cancer" is too widespread ! ! !The Presidency...It really is about character... And President Obama is really a character... I'm glad I didn't vote for this socialist liar. Only Saw Him Once..., huh? I just hate being taken for a fool . . . what about you? Does this guy have a problem with the 'Truth, or does he believe that the ordinary American is just Stupid?

Occasionally I get e-mails from extreme right wing family members, including a sister who thinks we are in "end times" and sincerely believes she can read the tea leaves and interpret the Book of Revelation like no other. She seems relatively harmless, like one of those lunatics waiting on the top of a hill to be raptured while the rest of us go on about our business. But a cousin of mine, a doctor whose mother was a Bircher back in the days, just forwarded something to me that makes me feel more than a little uncomfortable. It's basically a rabble-rousing piece being mass e-mailed among the cultists, saying "go ahead, fire the first shot and we'll be right behind you." Here's the e-mail:

We've been bringing knives to a gunfight. We've been getting outflanked by a party that will stop at nothing to deny Obama a victory and deny our citizenry what it needs: universal, affordable health care. Oh those terrible demagogues, we say. Tsk, tsk.

Well demagogue this: What if Obama, in his address to the Joint Session, used a visual illustration to make the point which the MSM has failed to make, to expose the "dirty little secrets" of not just the Republican obstructionists, but the Blue Dog Democrats. What if he used the real "nuclear option"?
