Cunton-Lieberman 2008?
'Democrat' Billary Cunton panders
to dumbfucks, Repugnican-style
When Repugnican-lovin' Connecticut Sen. Benedict Arn -- er, Joseph Lieberman -- lost the Democratic nomination to a real Democrat, he decided to run as an independent.
Gee, can we expect "Democrat" Billary Cunton to do the same when she loses the Democratic presidential nomination? Is her lust for personal political power at all costs not such that we could rule that out once she finally loses to real Democrat Barack Obama?*
Cunton's latest cuntiness is to attack frontrunner Obama for comments that he made last weekend in San Francisco -- and it is telling that Repugnican John McCain's campaign attacked Obama's comments, too. Ralph Nader had it right when he stated during the 2000 presidential campaign season that the Cunton "Democrats" and the Repugnicans are fucking indistinguishable.
According to Reuters, Obama said this at a fundraiser in San Francisco last weekend: "You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."
Um, Obama was just telling the truth.
Rich Repugnican overlords and their wingnut propaganda machine, of which FOX Guarding the Henhouse "News" is the flagship, work hard and spend lots and lots of money to make sure that embittered, disenfranchised poor and working-class Americans don't identify the real cause of their misery: the rich overlords, most of whom, of course, are Repugnicans.
So the Repugnicans and their wingnut propaganda machine do everything they can to make undereducated, overworked, frustrated Americans angry at the wrong targets, such as Muslims ("Islamofascists"), feminists, gay men and lesbians, non-whites, liberals and other assorted bogeymen. The xenophobia, misogyny, homophobia, racism and anti-intellectualism that the Repugnicans and their wingnut propaganda machine propagate are meant to keep the miserable masses from rising up and revolting against the rich.
With so many other "enemies" -- most of whom who are, ironically, relatively weak and powerless minority groups -- pointed out to them by the real enemy, the dumbfucks never go after the real cause of their problems: the stupid rich white men who control everything, most of whom are, of course, Repugnicans.
How did the McCain campaign respond to Obama's truth-telling at the fundraiser in San Francisco? Reports Reuters:
An aide to McCain called the fundraiser comments "remarkable and extremely revealing."
"It shows an elitism and condescension toward hard-working Americans that is nothing short of breathtaking," said Steve Schmidt, a senior adviser to the Arizona senator. "It is hard to imagine someone running for president who is more out of touch with average Americans."
Oh, give me a fucking break. Like John McCain and his filthy rich Stepford wife Cindy really give a fuck about Joe Sixpack. Oh, yes, the Repugnicans -- who have put the nation into another Bush recession, who want the rich to have all of the tax breaks while working Americans shoulder the lion's share of the tax burden, and who have sent more than 4,000 of our young men and women off to slaughter in Iraq for the war profiteering of Dick Cheney's Halliburton and the other war-profiteering subsidiaries of BushCheneyCorp (that's billions and billions of working Americans' tax dollars going to the war profiteers via Vietraq instead of to the things that Americans need, like education, health care, environmental protection and improvements in infrastructure) -- really give a flying fuck about poor and working-class Americans.
But the Repugnicans say that they care about these Americans, and these Americans, being dumbfucks, being undereducated and too overworked to educate themselves as to what's really going on -- not to mention being too distracted by such corporate-sponsored mind-numbing distractions and propagandafests as "American Idol" and FOX Guarding the Henhouse "News" -- buy it. They vote for Repugnicans like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders.
What Obama said about this segment of the American population -- what I call the dumbfuck vote -- was just the fucking truth.
I expect the McCain campaign to pounce on Obama, but what the fuck is the matter with Billary Cunton?
She said this in response to Obama's truth-telling: "Pennsylvania doesn't need a president who looks down on them. They need a president who stands up for them, who fights for them, who works hard for your futures, your jobs, your families."
(Notes Reuters: "Clinton ... once led Obama by double digits in polls in Pennsylvania, the next big battleground in their struggle for the right to face McCain in the November presidential election. That lead has dwindled to about 4 to 6 points in several recent polls in a state that has struggled from job losses and has a big population of blue-collar voters who have been Clinton's biggest backers.")
Like Billary Fucking Cunton cares any more about struggling Pennsylvanians any more than does John McCain. She says she cares about Pennsylvanians? She said that she came under sniper fire in Bosnia when the fact is that a little girl read her a poem in Bosnia. She fucking lies.
We've had enough anti-intellectualism and enough pandering to the dumbfuck vote during these awful, dark years under the unelected war criminal and traitor George W. Bush.
We need change. Big change. Desperately. Now.
What does Billary Cunton offer by way of "change"?
She mimics the Repugnicans in her attacks on Barack Obama.
She panders to the dumbfuck vote, just like the Repugnicans do.
Barack Obama is doing a bigger service to the dumbfuck bloc than Cunton is. Cunton wishes to keep them mired in their stupidity if she perceives that doing so will help her gain personal political power. Obama wishes to educate them, wishes to point out to them, correctly, that guns and violence and militarism, fundamentalist "Christianity" (Christofascism), xenophobia, homophobia and all of the other other-phobias don't solve their problems.
Billary Cunton, on the other hand, who stands only for gaining personal political power, will tell the voters anyfuckingthing that she thinks will get her votes -- even if that means attacking, Repugnican-style, Barack Obama, who is going to get the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination.
Yup -- when she inevitably loses the Democratic presidential nomination, maybe Billary Cunton will run for president as an independent, with Joseph Lieberman as her running mate.
*Actually, I doubt that Billary could run as an independent after she loses the Democratic presidential nomination; I don't think that she'd have enough time. But I'd have to research that, which I don't really feel like doing.
