We Are Marching To Wignuttia

by @ 11:37 am. Filed under wingnuttia

Admittedly, the animated gif I’m using here doesn’t make much sense. I was looking for an animation of someone rolling their eyes in amazement after somebody said something stupid, but couldn’t find that one. I guess you could justify it like this: a wingnut knows as much about waterboarding, as a wolf does about playing the accordion.

This is in reference to this comment left on the Politico site by True GOP, Reno NV: (emphasis mine)

How quick the Dumocraps would water board if someone they loved lived where the bomb might go off. If it was not done and the bomb did go off, the one responsible would be disgraced and worst responsible for many deaths. We are at war, the Dumocraps don’t understand that. We need more Jack Bauers, not fewer. Get off your high horse. We need to do what ever is necessary to protect ourselves and win. Unfortunatly, to the Dumocraps losing is acceptable. To Republicans losing is never an option.

Somehow True GOP has convinced himself that Al Queda is unlikely to strike in Washington, DC, which is where the Democrats work and live. Instead, Reno, Nevada is a much more likely target in that it has greater symbolic importance to the United States. Or, it could be that True GOP believes that because the Democrats are against waterboarding as a means of interrogation, they must have inside information that the terrorists have crossed Washington, DC off of their list. Too obvious, maybe?
