Oh, Now It’s Tyranny

Whatever.

On another subject, AP refers to Carrie Prejean as “the titular Miss California.” You know… titular.

Especially since that OTHER happens to a half black man.

But I’d like to say a few things:
1) If you’re innocent then why are you so afraid?
2) The law applies to EVERYONE not just Muslims and Libruls.
3) Boy, oh boy, you wingnuts and RWers are REALLY fucking dumb.

@Benedick: Fake titular Miss California would be closer to the truth.

I can see a response like this if they actually have evidence that he’s building bombs, but bomb threats? When I was a boy bomb threats were a great way to wile away a lazy Sunday afternoon…

My school specialized in bombs. One of the boys sent one through the mail to one of the masters. It blew up in the post office. We were patrolled by the police for a couple of years. Then another boy blew up the new sewage pipes under the quad. Happy days.

NOJO,
ahh, but in way-too-large segments of our society,
NOW they are barry’s laws!

And I’d bet serious cash (American) that the mom voted for Bush twice. Elections have consequences!

@blogenfreude: And is a member of Team Sarah! Chickens, roosts, such as.

blogenfreude: Believe it or don’t, but it appears that she’s represented by a Dumbocrat in Congress. A quick check shows that Oxford, North Carolina is Butterfield Country. (Whatever that means.) Point being that she may not be seeking shelter in the Tent of Freedom.

I saw this when Clinton was president, too. Right wing nuts who are usually little concerned about civil liberties, preferring instead to focus their outrage on our “lenient” judicial system that let’s criminals off on “technicalities,” suddenly transformed themselves into fierce civil libertarians concerned that every law enforcement measure passed under Clinton was a power grab by a Federal Government Hell-bent on enslaving us under a Surveillance State reminiscent of Orwell’s 1984.

Rest assured, people, that every time the DEA mistakenly raids the wrong home, every time some nutter White Supremacist gets himself killed in a shootout with local authorities, every time somebody is arrested under the newly formed powers of the Patriot Act, the very same people who screamed “pre-9/11 mentality!!!” at every opponent of the Act will turn around and start whining about the excessive power that the act affords the Obama Administration.

@Serolf Divad: ‘Twas during the Clinton days that one of the right’s favorite hyperbolic phrases was “jack-booted thugs.”

The other thing they do is lie, also.

@Prommie: Hey, just because they are crazy doesn’t mean they are wrong. Ruby Ridge and Waco did happen on Clinton’s watch and Delta Force WAS at Waco. These are milestone events that were brushed away to our collective peril, again making mundane the militarization of law enforcement. I say join the chorus that wants to know why a fuckwitted kid is subject to an estate of toxic laws that should be repealed.

“I hope this woman gets armed, now that she has seen how oppressive and tyrannical the government has become. Please, woman, get armed! Being armed against tyranny is the American way.”

This is also known as the “How to go out in a blaze of glory” theory of child rearing, right?
