BUSHZOMBIE

I never cease to be amazed at the ability for Zombies to actually look past reality as if it doesn’t exist.

I have met two people in the past week who are – for all intensive purposes – completely delusional about the real world.

One of them came prancing up to me saying, “The Democratic Congress has the lowest approval rating of any congress anytime, anywhere.” Of course his arms were stretched out before him and he had no idea what he was actually talking about.

Honestly, it felt to me as if I were trying to teach a new puppy how to ride a scooter. He had just pissed on the floor and was wagging his zombie tail and chirping happily.

To explain that the hatred for congress by the American public is the culmination of 1) the destruction of America by conservatives, 2) the wholesale theft of our economy supported by conservatives and 3) the inability for congress to effectively thwart the Bush Crime family.

Yes, America hates congress.

Just as a hungry baby hates the hunger pangs, the result of his tummy, and the baby cries out for salvation.

But it will not happen in a short legislative session. Why?

Because ½ the Democrats have become conservative too.

What my zombie friend has failed to understand is that the public doesn’t hate congress. It hates complacent behavior that has been the demise of our nation. It hates the fact that the conservatives have filibustered so much legislation that nothing gets accomplished and it hates the fact that the Democrats are not as dishonest, shallow and greedy as the Republicans. Oh common, America hates the fact that the Democrats don’t walk into congress and beat the holy shit out of the piss-ants that have caused all this trouble.

For my other friend, he is belligerent. For him, the game is about wearing the jersey. His team is the Republicans and he will keep being their cheerleader up until they have the first round draft pick (aka the end of the next depression I guess).

The moral of the story is simple: As I have explained time and time again, you can’t argue with a zombie. They simply keep trying to eat you, regardless of what you say. It’s best to simply walk away. At least they will be too slow to catch you.

Calling all Zombies…

Here is the right wing game plan for Obama:

Smear the holy crap out him with lies and propaganda. Call Obama a Muslim, American hating, sleeper president who will side with the enemy. Of course we always knew this was the plan on the right. We knew it all along. But now that “game day” has arrived, it is amazingly annoying.

How do you argue with this kind of stupidity? It is frightening and also the reason I built this site. I get tired of talking with Zombies and I needed a place to go. To actually hold a conversation with a Zombie is very difficult, much like discussing the failure of a marriage with your cat. The cat looks at you, you keep taking and no communication occurs. Zombies need something they can sink their rotting teeth into. Thus the site.

But before I get too disheartened, there is another side to the story. Obama is not a puppet or a dolt. He is the smartest guy on the block. That’s right. Obama is a guy who actually has a brain. 8 years of George Dubya Bush has left me forgetting that some presidents DO have brains.

When someone from the right smears Obama, here is where you send them: www.FightTheSmears.com.

I think Obama should also squash propaganda against McCain as well. Can you imagine that? Think about it. There are a few smears out there about McCain as well.

Wouldn’t it be great if Obama shot those lies down too? This would create a flurry in the media. I can see it now: Obama Wants the American Public to Debate Issues. Debunks McCain Smears and his own.

Oh well, to dream of a political system that isn’t insane.
