I couldn't help myself.
I was on a long drive today, and thought, I wonder what is going on over on talk radio? So, for hour after nauseating hour, I listened to the bloviators and purveyors of political poison.
Usually, when I check the other side of the swamp, I find myself furious, sometimes yelling at the radio as so many people seem to subscribe to this daily delusion.
But not today...Today I could not stop laughing. Talk Radio has become more unhinged than usual as it swallows the barrel of defeat. And that has made the crazies downright mega-loony.
The very first thing I heard when I flipped to talk radio was a host (not one of the biggies) calling for his listeners to join him in launching an immediate movement to impeach Obama. (Apparently the idiot doesn't know you can't impeach a president-elect.) The reason? He's a socialist, he's a terrorist, he endorses crime, etc.
Then things got even worse: Within weeks, the callers said (with the host agreeing) buildings would start being blown up, the price of gas would climb almost immediately to $5 a gallon, the automobile industry would go bankrupt, etc.
Oh - and the best. The reason that people voted for Obama was because the liberals had taken over the schools and brainwashed the children, and now the conservatives needed to fight to take over the schools so they could push their agenda.
This was nothing compared to the scumbag this afternoon, Mark Levin. He proclaimed Obama to be the president of black America, one who would triple welfare by taking away half the money from the working, and on and on. He did everything but scream the "N" word.
The fun part was listening to them turn on each other. They blathered on and on about "RINO's" (republicans in name only) and raged that they had to purge their party of everyone except the die-hard conservatives who are anti-abortion and anti-gay. (Oh I HOPE they succeed.)
One thing I think we ought to do -- just for fun. As the Limbaughs and Hannitys and other sleaze start railing
against Obama, we should hit them with:
"Obama is the commander in chief, in a time of war. How can you not support our troops? How can you act in a way to demoralize our troops by attacking our president? Do you hate America, or just the people in it? Why do you hate America, Sean, Rush and the rest? WHY??''
God what fun.
