The wingnuttiest item since…well, what time is it?

Our evil doppelganger sisters at And Rightly So! grab out their Nancy Drew magnifying glasses and go to work on Ted Kennedy’s recent op-ed in the Boston Globe.

“The president is the commander in chief of the military. That doesn?t give him the power to spy on civilians at home without any judicial oversight whatsoever, without ever revealing those activities to even well-established courts that review these matters in secrecy. Otherwise, every phone and computer in America should now come with a warning label: Warning: the privacy of your communications can no longer be guaranteed, by order of President Bush.”

That warning wouldn?t bother me one bit. I?ve always assumed the government has access to everything anyway.

Wow. Just — wow. But if it… Wow. And then with Clinton, when it… Wow. Oog. Let’s check that again:

[sound of Satire, poor dear Satire, staggering about with a knife in her chest, then whumping stone-dead onto the boards.]

Wow. So that’s conservatism these days, huh?

…A-and here’s And Rightly So! again, for the bonus million:

“Bolton stands out among sleekly groomed diplomats, with his trademark walrus mustache and mop of gray hair.”

Heh, he?s not interested in appearances so much as he is with action. I like that. Anyone who can put aside petty concerns about how they look, and get down to the more important things in life, is worthy of my respect.

Wow…these bimbots are trying to out-Coulter Coulter. Loved the comments BTW – suprised they were allowed!

 
 

The author of that piece claims in her bio to be a libertarian.

 
 

…and we’re assuming she knows what a libertarian is? She also hates child molesters – and GUESS WHAT??? So do I! But that doesn’t make us soul sisters…

 
 

Why, that’s just the scariest thing I’ve read in a long time.

 
 

Is that really them? I thought that was a joke picture you guys used to mock them, as it’s very “I’m ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille” what with all the vaseline on the lens.

 
 

I actually popped it into Photoshop and sharpened it a lot. The original is totally Vaseline-on-your-glasses bathtime…

 
 

I think thats a screen cap from Peter Gabriel’s video “Steam”.

 
 

DUDACK, it looks like it, doesn’t it, but I just watched that video again and it’s not.

 
 

so ladies, the government thinks it’s ok to spy on american citizens without even notifying a special court that exists for the express purpose of handling just such issues..what’s your take?..
“and rightly so??”
they better not EVER call anyone a “big government liberal” on their site.

oh by the way..the most recent post here:

is quite a good read.

 
 

I believe the photo is taken from the opening credits of the old NBC series Sisters.

Don’t ask me how I would know that.

 
 

Ohhhh, so the author is one of the “I want to smoke weed without feeling guilty” class of Libertarians. It all makes sense now.

 
 

What the hell is up with righty blogs being obsessed with putting a bajillion random “Support our troops!!!!!!” gifs on the sides of their websites? It looks incredibly half-assed.

And why are wingnut females so obsessed with fifties-era pinups and describing themselves with words like ‘sassy’?

 
 

“That warning wouldn?t bother me one bit. I?ve always assumed the government has access to everything anyway.”

And yet, when personel files ended up at Clinton’s White House…HOWL! RAGE! HORROR!

Does the government have the technical ability to tap my phone? Heck, yeah! Do I think that the government has the right to tap my phone without a warrant? Hell, no!

All these people who take the “if you’re not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about” line miss the point: right now, innocence protects you because it’s hard for the government to get a warrant against someone who’s done nothing wrong.

Taking away the warrant process means that government mistakes can be devastating.

 
 

“Heh, he?s not interested in appearances so much as he is with action.”

Or it could point to a general lack of professionalism in all aspects of his work.

You be the judge.

No wait, I will.

 
 

Jack of None:

It’s all part of the overall schtick of showing how un-politically-correct they are (not just the wimmins–that’s just a popular fad on their side of the i-loves-me-some-W cult). And, of course, just when you think it can’t get any more ridiculous or childish…

But it’s fairly easy to understand, since anti-PC is all they have and the nuances of alternatives are far too painful for them.

 
 

You know, I too have always assumed the government has access to everything anyway. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t bother me.

In fact, it worries me quite a lot.
Funnily enough, it would worry me regardless of who was in charge of the government, but for various reasons, it worries me a lot more with this administration.

It may have something to do with their apparent pride in the fact that they don’t believe they’re accountable to anyone, or with their classification of anyone who doesn’t agree with them as “with the terrorists”, or the torture thing, or their weird application of the whole “law and order” principles, or their apparent disinterest in collateral damage of any sort.

Or, you know, maybe I’m just a frothing paranoid Bush-hater.

 
 

a libertarian wrote that?

I’ll bet she’s a ‘strict constructionist’ too.

and FISA is all ‘activist judges’

 
 

“What’s a libertarian?”
“Who cares? It just sounds cool.”
“OK…I’m a…libertarian. You’re right! That sounds too cool! And you know what else? I hate child molesters!”

 
 

They had to have one of them pretend to be a libertarian, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to say “Some of my best friends are liberal…”

Also, Call me a jerk for going psyical, but the one on the right in that picture looks like some sort of turban wearing donkey style genetic accident.

 
 

Dammit LEFT, the one on the LEFT.

 
 

Come to think of it, the One in the middle’s eyes are following me around the room now… Chist, she’s evil, I bet that one’s Raven.

Apparently “libertarian” serves the same function “objectivist” did when I was in school: it makes you sound brainy without doing any real reading, since you presume no one else knows what it means, either.

As for the photo…”Jungle Red, my dear!”

 
 

I like the mistake of “fast check” for “fact check.” Fast, fact, what’s the diff!

 
 

See? See?

Tories.
