Ted Rall, Fucking Prick
I am now convinced that along with Al Sharpton, Ted Rall is a secret Republican operative. If he isn't, the GOP should snatch him up and put him on payroll. I can't imagine anyone doing more damage to the Left or providing more fuel to their detractors than the cartoonist who can still see his sketch pad with his head completely up his own ass. Besides being shrill and self-righteous (When I saw this cartoon I immediately thought of Sinead O'Conner ripping up a picture of the Pope on SNL calling on its viewers to "Fight the real enemy!"), Ted Rall can't even get his fucking metaphors straight. If the war had "an architect" or "a chef" it would be Bush or his cabal of war-mongering neo-con fuckfaces. The troops in Iraq did not decide to invade Iraq, nor did they push a false rationale for war through Congress and the UN. Most troops joined the Army because they couldn't afford college, or they didn't have any other opportunities. They are young (try 18-20) and just want to get back home unharmed to be with their families and loved ones. What the fuck does Ted want? Nader installed as enlightened despot and a permanent moratorium placed on all that constitutes reality for most Americans? There's reason America now cringes at the memory of hippies screaming "Baby-Killer!" at returning Vietnam vets. Because it was wrong.
Sir, I See Your SF Gate Article on "The Passion," and I Raise You Consider Arms and myself have been competing with one another to find the worst example of writing that has come from the Left recently. This might take the championship belt. As Joerg from the weblog Conscientious said when he emailed me the link, "whenever you think it can't get any more ridiculous she pulls it off." The author (a "sex therapist" who at one point uses the phrase "Ayatollah Asscraft" to refer to the Attorney General) tries to make the point that the photos of abused Iraqi prisoners gave Bush an erection, and like exalted moron at the Village Voice said earlier, the cheeramid pics are kinda hot.
Drudge Takes The High Road Again by linking to this article from the paragon of class, the UK's Sun as a 24pt headline with picture. I can only imagine the howls that would come from the right if Girls Gone Wild photos of the Bush twins were published, which, if you look at their track record is kinda probable. Extra points to Matt Drudge for punning on the word "Canne."
