Brute Hilarity

People all over are decrying the return of right-wing extremists these days, be it the Homeland Security folks, the SPLC, or your friendly, neighborhood liberalite.

First off, I thought their "return" was the past eight years. But more importantly, I say bring on the nutjobs. God willing, the FBI and whatnot will keep a tab on the violence, because these guys are just too darned funny not to have around.

When was the last time someone brought a gun to a public meeting on healthcare? Why on Earth would this be necessary? Of course it's not necessary, but it is hilarious.

I know we've reached the line of no return when people do stuff like this:

This week, the Secret Service detained a man outside a congressional town hall meeting in Maryland. He was carrying a sign reading “Death to Obama.” Referring to the president’s wife and daughters, the sign also read, “Death to Michelle and her two stupid kids.” (Christian Science Monitor)

My only real complaint, aside from the death part, is that these people can't find more creative ways of voicing their unecessarily vehement anger. If chanting "death to blankety-blank" is the best they can do, they gotta reassess their priorities. Although I do admit, those kids might be stupid.

I'm not going to listen to something from the colloquial chum bucket - get some rhymes in there! Refer to a long-standing yet unrelated event that provokes irrational anger! How about a haiku to put those Ivy League tightwads in tizzy:

Barack's healthcare? Great.
But my healthcare? Not so great.
Roe v. Wade? Still dumb.

That's free of charge, nutty right-wingers. Now go back out there, preferably without so many weapons, and show those communist surrender monkeys who really represents 1.3% of the population.
