We’ve mentioned before our love of WorldNetDaily, your one-stop shop for right-of-Rush infotainment. It you want to know “why leftists love tyrants and terrorists,” you’re just a click away from enlightenment.

Actually, two clicks: One to wade through a page of blurbs, the second to hit the WND Shop to buy the book that delivers the goods. Which is published by — wait for it — WND.

It’s a neat trick, and we envy their success. It also helps explain why WND has suddenly gone millenialist on us, with a couple of stories warning us about the end of the world as we know it.

Because if you’ve lost Joe the Plumber, you’ve lost the soul of the GOP:

Michael Steele now has another high-profile Republican publicly bashing him: Samuel “Joe The Plumber” Wurzelbacher.

At a meeting of conservative activists in Milwaukee, Mr. The Plumber had some tough words for the RNC chairman: “Unfortunately we have a chairman up there who wants to redefine conservatism; he wants to make it hip hop, put it in a new package and sell it.”

This is so much fun.

Joe the Plumber Blasts Michael Steele’s “Hip Hop” Ambitions [TPM]

The deathwatch at Big Newsprint continues — the Seattle Post-Intelligencer is on the ropes, and the referee is looking somewhat concerned.  Possibly by the end of the week, if not sooner.

Notably, the second major metropolitian newspaper to go down in recent days is, like the first, in a two-newspaper town. So there’s that. But still.

Sarah Palin. Joe the Plumber. Rush Limbaugh. Eric Cantor. Bobby Jindal. The GOP all stars who would save their party are a pretty sorry bunch. They are deeply ignorant and breathtakingly selfish people. Yet the wingnuts heap praise on these loons and clamor for one of them to ride to the rescue.  And now there’s another candidate:

SITTING in the back seat of his mother’s van as she drives through Atlanta suburbs, Jonathan Krohn is about to sign off with a conservative radio talk show host in Florida. In the 40 minutes he’s been on the air, with the help of his mother’s cellphone, this hyper-articulate Georgia eighth grader has attacked the stimulus bill, identified leaders he thinks will salvage the Republican Party’s image, and assessed the legitimacy of Barack Obama’s birth certificate.

It’s the moment of Tyranny we’ve been warned about: an agent of the State denying your Second Amendment rights because your politics are disagreeable, Comrade.

Only this being Oklahoma, somehow the wires got crossed.

Our Oppressed Hero in this tale is Lane Dunkley, a God-fearing American citizen who sought a hunting permit so he could practice his God-given stewardship over deer. With his grandfather.

Lane, you see, is 13.

But you can’t just grab your flintlock and go in Socialist Oklahoma. Instead the local commissars require your attendance at a reeducation session, which they call a “hunter safety course” to fool the patriots.

Nothing says, "I'm more of a badass than Ann Coulter" like a leather vest and chola makeup.

“If you take your kids to see Watchmen, you’re a moron.

If you see it yourself, you’re also probably a moron and a vapid, indecent human being.”

That’s how Debbie Schlussel, D-list Ann Coulter wannabe, begins her thoughtful, measured review of this year’s biggest box office hit. She’s a real charmer, our Debbie.

Now, I agree with the first statement – and apparently, so does the Motion Picture Association of America, which gave the film an R rating. But does the second statement not, by default, name her as a vapid, indecent human being? Oh, right, she was just performing a service for dull-minded parents who do whatever their kids tell them to do.

If you’re wondering why her name sounds familiar, you might know her as the author of a twice-weekly column entitled, “Debbie Does Politics.” She is a role model for the children, really.  And drag queens.

Title: Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto

Author: Mark R. Levin

Rank: 50

Blurb: “In the face of the modern liberal assault on Constitution-based values, an attack that has steadily snowballed since President Roosevelt’s New Deal of the 1930s and resulted in a federal government that is a massive, unaccountable conglomerate, the time for re-enforcing the intellectual and practical case for conservatism is now.”
