The local radio wingnut thinks he has common ground with Lefties over data mining. My e-mail to him.

* The data collecting programS began when WHO was pResident?, oh the Defender of the FREEDOM Shrub, never mind. You wingnuts wildly supported everything you (thought you) KNEW-ABOUT back then, and if Shrub were the pResident now you would be wildly supporting what you’re finding out now. Although actually there are news reports about it all dating to 2006, and your pretense to hardnosed shrewdness makes me wonder why you never DREAMED such things were ever going on?! Besides just living in a world where every cash register transaction is profiling you?!

* As the die hard Rethug KoolAid-swigger you are, since Shrub’s former staffers are out there crowing that the current policies are all their own, including CHEENEE dipping his toe in and soon to claim all the credit entirely, you should be HAPPY, so WHAT IS YOUR BEEF?!

* If you are now flying the colors of Civil Liberties Libertarianism, well, your whole mental bent is Wingnut-WIRED at whatever REGRESSIVE point in the historical PAST that you can grasp at: When one philosophical label like BIRCHERism becomes too ridiculous to defend you regroup under a “new” name, NINO (New in Name Only). Wingnut history is littered with names like America First, the Conservative Coalition, the BIRCHers, and now the TeaBaggers -- all the same shit.

* It was laughable how you latched onto the WASHINGTON POST as the lynchpin of your OUTRAGE. You wingnuts are so literal minded that you think what worked before (the WaPo during Watergate) is THE SAME as today. Laughable that you believe you have found some common ground across the Wingnut-Left divide, that is, getting Lefties to join you on your flip-flopped side (you were FOR data mining before you were AGAINST it?). Your ONLY goal is Lib defeat no matter what the issue and it would be SO much sweeter with Libs helping out!1

* Granted that Wingnuts live in the past, but is it credible that you (like convenience store robbers nightly on the local news) were oblivious to there being cameras and other data collector gadgets everywhere?! If any catastrophe happened you would be FULMINATING about how OBAMA should have had ANYTHING-WHATEVER in place and the catastrophe proves how (negligent, traitorous, pick one) he is. Personally.

* The Romans had it down pat, that High Politics of the state were not matters for the fabled Citizens to pester their pretty little heads about, that they should only be tail-gating at the Coliseum for the NBA playoffs (or whatever was in season).


Since you’ve been blathering on the radio for more than a score of years and I’ve been monitoring randomly over that time, here are things (without notes or recordings, I promise) that I’ve DATA COLLECTED (oh my!) about YOU, just from your blatherings about yourself:

* You have a concealed gun permit and pack heat, all of us radio “fans” take heed.

* You save/hoard ALL e-mails, implying that you might have some use against us e-mailers some day, credit your shrewdness of foresight against who knows what. Talk about DATA MINING!1

* Your wife dated KKKarl in college.

* You studied in Europe for a year and interned at CBS NYC under Dan RATHER, all for naught given your return to the hick sticks of your Wingnutism, your educative experiences having broadened your horizons NAUGHT, at all.

* You are a groupie for spy novels, and consider yourself CYNICALLY CANNY about the “real” world and the untold deviousness of the very real evil doers out there, haHAH! Somehow, all this shrewdness never insulated you to wink-wink at Shrub-CHEENEE propaganda. How does it work exactly, this SHREWDNESS about worldly realities while so GULLIBLE about “official stories”?! Well, besides preening to be a spymaster, you also claim to be a journalist, so...

* Funny your saying the other day about how hair-on-fire (to coin a spy phrase) you were about this, “I *REALLY* believe this...” so does that mean you DON’T believe lots of what you yammer off about?!

* You have connections to prominent Rethugs at local, state, and national levels, and you hint that there is a REAL power structure that is outside, above, and beyond the participation of us simple-minded Great UnWashed.

* You collect fountain pens and typewriters. Wow. How retro. Like Daisy’s green light, future forward into the past.
