Hypocrites and Whackos
UPDATE: Below
I was over at Salon reading Joe Conason and the post at the top is about
Mike Vanderboegh is the far-right activist from Alabama who gained sudden notoriety when he posted a message this week urging his fellow extremists to smash the windows of Democratic politicians to protest healthcare reform — a wingnut Kristallnacht.
. . .
“So, if you wish to send a message that Pelosi and her party cannot fail to hear, break their windows,” Vanderboegh wrote on a blog called Sipsey Street Irregulars.
So, I moseyed on over to the web site mentioned above, and which I will not link to, and realized that this guy is not only a hypocrite but he cannot do fourth grade math. He talks about “3 percenters” and then comes up with a number that equals just one percent.
So I left the following comment there (it’s doubtfull he will have the intestinal fortitude to allow it to be published):
I am curious. How many years did you spend in the U.S. military? How many months or years did you experience combat, as part of the U.S. Military?
For the record, I am a Senior Chief Petty Officer, United States Navy (Retired) with 21 years active service and 35 months deployed in combat zones.
From everything I can find out about you, you are a coward, a keyboard commando, who collects a disabiliyy check because you are too lazy to work and expect the taxpayer to support you.
You are a hypocrite of the first order when you bitch and want to destroy the very system that is supporting you. Or, perhaps, you are just too dumb to understand that.
I have come to the conclusion that
- the folks that spout this hate are racist
- they can do real, but very limited damage
- are like lemmings following their leader off of a cliff
- are helping the Democrats stay in the majority for a long time
Unfortunately, these folks are not going away soon or quietly. We just need to remember that they are pissed-off, white male, high school grads who do not think they should have to compete with women or people of color for jobs. Jobs are their birthright /snark.
UPDATE: Mr Vanderboegh has another ten or so comments posted since I left mine, but he would not publish mine. Coward, comes to mind.
