Just after
cleaning up from my Shep’s overnight barf-a-thon (wrong – I had missed one of his
better efforts under the foot of the bed), Miggy, of the excellent Gun-Free Zone blog, posts a Facedbook
link which made my early Monday morning ever
so much better. Jaime Franchi, she of the Pulitzer candidate 8 Factoids to Help You Sound Smart at a Party (two of which involve
chocolate bunnies), drops a real steamer: Redefine
the NRA as a Terrorist/Lobby Organization
Writing in the
“Strictly Digital” (not even to be seen in birdcages) Long Island Press, that fine
purveyor of “sports and alternative political news”, Ms. Franchi barfs out an impassioned
editorial. The LIP incredibly miscategorizes her dreck as news. Actually, it’s not even much of an editorial,
as it contains all the logic and cohesive thought of a bum’s
screaming fit with his shoe.
No, I’m not
going to link to that steaming pile of vomitus. I’ve made the proper
attributions: if you feel you must abuse your frontal lobes, Google it
yourself.
Her editorial
is largely a series of declarative statements, organized together by -- as far as I can
tell -- commas, periods, spaces and proximity. Her thoughts skitter across the
page like a drop of oil on too hot of a skillet. I tried to decipher several
of her sentences and only got closer to putting rum in my coffee. Many of her
statements are obviously incorrect or wild-eyed stretches of the vernacular. She
even invokes bloody-shirt mouthpiece Richard Martinez, and “his simple(minded)
plea of #notonemore.” The parenthetical is mine.
I subjected
myself to Franchi’s derp in order to better understand the opposition’s
thoughts and motivations. She's an insignificant player, but typical of the breed. I’m left wondering; “How do these people dress themselves in the morning?”
Always remember that these are cowards. They demand that blood be shed for their principle but somebody else's blood as they have natural desire to keep their inside their circulatory system. They do seem to have a fantastic lack of fortitude
ReplyDeleteYes, they are cowards - but they run in snarling, vicious packs. Were one wouldn't dare, the demos will try to crush all before them.

ReplyDeleteI'd comment more fully, but Lex Luthor said it better than I ever could.
OUTstanding!
