It is very telling that I haven’t been posting here – the craziness coming from the right wing is so far above the norm now, it’s a bizarre concentrated craziness that comes from the complete disintegration of a party which used the crazy as its base. There’s no longer leadership to the Republican party, nothing to tamp down and placate the insane, so crazy is now bubbling up to the top and oozing out of every crevice.
And of course, the dark shadowy evil behind the party is egging it all on, the media is lapping it up and promoting it, and it’s all so insane that I can’t wrap my mind around it or calm down long enough to write a blog entry.
So, today’s crazy tour de force: the nuts are up in arms because the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES is giving a speech at a high school (Wakefield, my father’s alma mater and my neighborhood high school before I moved to California).
These two quotes from web comments about cover it:
Who does this president think he is? As much as the demorats would like to have it, we are not a socialistic society and do not need govt TV to brain wash our kids. This is the start communism hiding behind socialism.
I bet obama will use his speech for political purposes, afterall he is a politician. Obama is slowly but surely destroying this country as we know it. There’s not telling what it will look like 4 years from now.
