Finally out of power, repuglicans are desperately turning even viler. Which, since a majority of people have grown sick and tired of their shit, may well leave the psycho WATBs out of power in perpetuity.
Fueled by Rush Limbaugh's gesticulating arm flab, the presidency of Barack Obama has sent the far-right into a freakazoid display of shockingly deranged conniptions and outright crazy talk. In other words: a total berserker meltdown.

You know, most of the crazy shit they're saying is NOT that new, nor any stupider than normal (you've correctly railed against it for years, Maru), but I think that -- at least to the MSM and 'mainstream' America -- (as Bob Cesca briefly alluded to) it's the CONTRAST with a low-key, rational, POTUS like Obama that really makes these knobs stick-out.
Kinda like 'The Dog Whisperer', where Cesar Milan always starts out the show visiting some crazy household where the dogs are running and barking like mad right-wingers. Typically Cesar has a few scenes where he practices 'quiet assertion' and calms the animals into submission.
well stated. The Projection by the Wingnuts is getting sharper & more pronounced every day. Obama's calm & measured demeanor practically shouts competency, while their collective heads explode at that. I keep being reminded of this photo - one I might've spotted here first, for all I can remember:

Maru, love your site & postings as always. However...
Am concerned (and no, IANA Concern Troll, please believe me) about a certain comment I'm seeing more&more often, such as in this post - namely, that the conThugs/ Wingnuts are somehow going to put themselves "permanently out of power".
Wasn't this the same type of thing we heard from the likes of Rove and DeLay, and ended up jeering at? It suggests a certain level of hubris that (true or not for Dems/Libs, and I'm thinking not, here) I would not want to see attached to Dem/Lib bloggers (and you know 'they' are all looking for excuses to paint folks like you in a negative light).
I'm not at all suggesting the Dems would take themselves back out of power by way of the deep & rampant arrogance, criminality and incompetence that W & the reThugs showed. But thanks to Lee Atwater and Rove we can probably count on them wielding a pretty effective tool in future elections - and after the '00 and '04 elections I will not EVER underestimate the collective stupidity of the American Voter (and depths to which the reThugs will sink to exploit it), ever again.
Anyways, my $0.02 on this, take it or leave it.
PS. Re. post below, Onion video - you owe me a new keyboard... GOTTA stop drinking coffee while I'm surfing *anything* Onion related... ;-)
