The GOP Laff Riots by Ed Nada

[onestepforward]

I think this man is a wonderful writer:

"Let me see if I have the Republican formula for political reform down. First, take two heaping teaspoons of ideology and hubris. Mix them in with a sprinkle of racism. Simmer in a pot bought and paid for by big industry and those making a fortune off maintaining the status quo. Add in a cup of false populism. Pour in two carafes of vintage fear. Season with broadcasted lies and false talking points. Then, bring to a boil, tossing in a few twisted historical references for good measure. Voila! Muttonhead stew! (Best served with swastikas, dead brain cells and Glenn Beck.) Ummm. Tastes just like AstroTurf!

Welcome to Amerika '09 folks, where a Kafkaesque cabal of conspiracy conmen (and women) is intent on dragging this country back into the '80s when greed was good, he who died with the most toys won the game and those not in the mix were welfare cheats and "those" people. In other words, Republican Nirvana."

"I, personally, think ridicule is the answer. Not intellectual scorn or sarcasm but something that the puppets will find humiliating. Slapstick. Bring clown horns. Whoopee cushions. Fart machines. Imagine one of these idiots standing up to scream, "I want my country out of the hands of these socialist Kenyans!" and a hundred of you all press your fart buttons at once. Or toot your horns. If these people want to act like cartoon characters of the Yosemite Sam variety, treat 'em the way Bugs Bunny would. Mortify 'em."
