Kudos to Lawrence O’Donnell on this fantastic Newter’s Hypocrisy on Rewrite. From time to time I will highly the best of his Rewrites that I consider to be ON FIRE!!!
May God bless those who have been seriously impacted by the tragic events of Sept 11th and look over them as they deal with this rough day. I will spend time working and in thought on the day and after watching local news turning the tv off (as I normally do on this day) as there will be nothing but a sad overdose of this news coverage all day.
What I do find hypocritical though is the ideal of people coming together (inspite of having a fear of another attack) collectively as AMERICANS to remember Sept 11. Yet still there are people that allow & continue in divisiveness and characters who make money off of it and capitalize off of it and anything they don’t like that is foreign to them to keep it that way!!
I do have HUGE problems with the hypocrisy aspect of today on those same folks who have overall racist agenda and have disgust and disrespect for President Obama talking with such passion the tragic events of Sept 11th and people needing to come together and remember. Oh and I forgot of the hype of the second set of tea parties on 9-12 to be used to keep the fear factor aspect of another terrorist attack on a black president’s watch to have the strong possibilty of happening. These same SOBs proudly say stuff like that with a ”see we told you so” smug arrogance that in my eyes seriously deserves to be taken care of in my evil thoughts way (but I digress for now on that).
And let’s not even forgot the Angry White Men Brigade rethugician haters like Newt calling her a racist & already bitchin a fit and the woman hasn’t even sat down in her hearing yet!! This 2001 speech she is misquoted from speech she gave in 2001 isn’t even clearly being understood. If those with half a brain and LOGIC were able to take themselves out of the picture & actually take the time to read that particular NY Times link of her speech you would find that she makes damn good sense on what she says on how our life experiences and YES VIRGINIA race does shape how we see the world, how we think and the decisions we make and in a lot of ways prejudices we also have!! Oh and now we got conservative fools talking about Sotomayor’s ties to La Raza and saying some shit like they basically are like the Latino KKK???
On May 29th Today Show I literally wanted to smack thru the tv Matt Lauer’s weak punk ass when he spoke with no strong conviction on Justice Alito’s similiar commentary as an Italian American with that lipstick bigotted bitch Laura Ingraham. Ingraham ranting on “reverse racism” and “putting her ethnic identity at the forefront” bullshit. How laughable this bitch was- normally I turn when I see her and should have done just that but I overslept and happen to have caught this shortly after I woke up to get ready for work!! This from the MEAN GIRL who attacked a younger conservative that is a voice of reason who called out the GOP and how they are a hot ass mess!!!
I want the conservatives personally to continue their whining and showcasing their racist ignorance and lack of knowledge because I want it to seriously hurt them in the end with votes for mid elections and also for the 2012 Presidential run. Their foolishness will cost them the GRAND OLD PARTY OF BIGOTTED MOSTLY WHITE FOLKS who are taken aback and upset deep down on them not being top dog and the world ain’t just about them anymore AND THEY CAN’T DEAL WITH IT!!!
Now if only we could take those neocons people, along with Fox news and their nutzo fanbase of conservative military and Real American rednecks with their pride, all of the fools with their neocon blogs and websites, Boss Limbaugh and the Mean Girls GOP bitches, GOP politicians and all of the other assorted Muppet characters of their ilk blast them off into another planet to fend for themselves and pull themselves up by their own bootstraps on that planet and drive each other crazy enough to commit cannibalism and never hear from them again.
