This Is Your Country (Cont'd)
Excerpted from the New York Times:
At least, unlike Paris Hilton and her ilk, the Dumb Blonde of ’50s cinema had a firm grasp on one thing: It was cool to be smart. She aspired to read good books and be friends with intellectuals, even going so far as to marry one. But now another famous beauty with glowing skin and a powerful current, Sarah Palin, has made ignorance fashionable.
You struggle to name Supreme Court cases, newspapers you read and even founding fathers you admire? No problem. You endorse a candidate for the Pennsylvania Senate seat who is the nominee in West Virginia? Oh, well.
At least you’re not one of those “spineless” elites with an Ivy League education, like President Obama, who can’t feel anything. It’s news to Christine O’Donnell that the Constitution guarantees separation of church and state. It’s news to Joe Miller, whose guards handcuffed a journalist, and to Carl Paladino, who threatened The New York Post’s Fred Dicker, that the First Amendment exists, even in Tea Party Land. Michele Bachmann calls Smoot-Hawley Hoot-Smalley.
Sharron Angle sank to new lows of obliviousness when she told a classroom of Hispanic kids in Las Vegas: “Some of you look a little more Asian to me.”
As Palin tweeted in July about her own special language adding examples from W. and Obama: “ ‘Refudiate,’ ‘misunderestimate,’ ‘wee-wee’d up.’ English is a living language. Shakespeare liked to coin new words too. Got to celebrate it!”
On Saturday, at a G.O.P. rally in Anaheim, Calif., Palin mockingly noted that you won’t find her invoking Mao or Saul Alinsky. She says she believes in American exceptionalism. But when it comes to the people running the country, exceptionalism is suspect; leaders should be — as Palin, O’Donnell and Angle keep saying — just like you.

Santelli & Liddy: Twin Cowards.
From ThinkProgress:
CNBC’s Rick Santelli appeared on at least two radio programs today to promote his “rant” against President Obama’s housing program. On G. Gordon Liddy’s radio program, Santelli called attention to White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs’s response to his tirade. He cropped a quote from Gibbs to suggest the White House was pursuing a campaign of intimidation against him:
SANTELLI: He started that press conference saying, “I don’t know where he lives, I don’t know where his house is.” This is the Press Secretary of the White House. Is that the kind of thing we want? Is that...
LIDDY: It’s a veiled threat.
SANTELLI: It really is. […] I don’t really want to be a spokesman, but I really am very proud of a) the response I’m getting, which is overwhelmingly positive, and b) discourse, that is debate. That if the pressure and the heat I’m taking from the White House – the fact my kids are nervous to go to school – I can take that, okay.
Here's the exchange:
Santelli also appeared on Mike Gallagher’s radio show, again stating “it was very scary” to have the White House Press Secretary say, “we don’t know where he lives or where his house is.”
The White House, however, has made no threats against Santelli. Here’s Gibbs’s full quote(which Santelli conveniently failed to use):
GIBBS: I’ve watched Mr. Santelli on cable the past 24 hours or so. I’m not entirely sure where Mr. Santelli lives or in what house he lives but the American people are struggling every day to meet their mortgages, stay in their jobs, pay their bills, send their kids to school.
Gibbs wasn’t threatening Santelli; he was pointing out the sheer absurdity of a well-to-do pundit criticizing Obama’s housing plan as seeking to simply “subsidize the losers’ mortgages.”
I posted something on Santelli last week. He hadn't even read the plan before he staged his rant, and now he's trying to extend his 15 minutes of fame.
G. Gordon Liddy is a broadcast sociopath. For him to claim that Robert Gibbs was making a "veiled threat" sounds to me like he's accusing the press secretary of a terrorist act. Shouldn't Liddy be canned for that shit?
Oops! What am I thinking? He's just being outrageous! It's good for business!
Give me a break.
If CNBC really wants to position itself as a reputable source of financial news and analysis, surely they can do better than Rick Santelli.
Of course, a monkey with a microphone stuck up its ass could replace G. Gordon Liddy during a commercial break and listeners would notice a doubling of the IQ the instant the ape squealed.

Michelle Malkin Really Needs To Let The Air Out Of Her Head.
Crazed right-wing bullshit peddler and Queen of Eye-Rolling Indignation Michelle Malkin--hack lackey for the billions-shedding News Corporation's FOX News and New York Post (and chief cheerleader for the soon-to-be bankrupt Pajamas Media right-wing blogging network)--shows her true colors yet again:
Proud to be an unpatriot in Obama’s America
So, President Obama phoned the Senate GOP sellouts Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, and Arlen Specter and praised them Friday night for showing their “patriotism” by cutting a trillion-dollar, backroom deal to mortgage our children and grandchildren’s future.
If that is “patriotism,” then I’m proud to be an unpatriot.
How about you?
That trademark Malkin witlessness boggles the mind, doesn't it?
I'm sure carving out a smidgen of space on the extreme fringe of the right-wing is a challenge for Michelle Malkin. Her hysterical hyena schtick is identical in tone to Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity and all the other L'il Limbaughs who lack the imagination to come up with their own material. Each brings effortless stupidity to whole new levels for their respective audiences of fact-adverse, blindly obedient disciples.
But, hey: if you like your comedy dumbed-down, trashy and 100% inadvertent, be sure to catch one of these exact replicas soon.
