Varmint on the media response to the Great American Tax Day Tea Parties:
"Anderson Cooper is the teabagger? I always had him more figured as the teabaggee. CNN's ratings are in a death spiral. the anchors are getting desperate. Rather than imitate a successful model like O'Reilly or Hannity, they are trying to be John Stewart. It's the end of journalism as a respectable profession."
-- John Bergstrom, aka Varmint.
And here I thought that the respectability of journalism ended when the Pulitzer Prize was given to one of Stalin's bitches at the New York Times.
If I may paraphrase Ayn Rand, a sexual innuendo is not an argument. Especially if it refers to a particularly absurd form of homosexual intercourse. (And no, I'm not going to explain it to you. Look it up online like I did.)
The fact that the mouthpieces for the other side have to resort to sexual innuendo or the old favorite of screaming "racism", if they bother to mention the Tea Parties at all, is a clear indication in my personal experience that they are wrong. They know that they're wrong. And they are scared.
One of the things that Rand constantly pointed out in hers works of fiction and nonfiction is that the parasite class not only is dependent on others for the material goods that they need to live, they also are dependent on others for their ideas and their sense of self worth.
Like the mentally challenged child who needs a teacher to tell them that they did a good job, the parasite leader and his circle of sycophants have a need for adulation. They need the constant adulation and praise of the masses. This is especially true when it is visibly clear that the the parasite leadership and their policies are failing.
Instead of the soothing falsehoods that leaders like The Big Zero and his inner circle mentally require, the Tea Parties are a voice of truth in sea of lies.
That frightens the parasites. The one thing they cannot tolerate is the truth. Because the truth is, they need us, we have absolutely no use for them.

And then... while I was taking a shower this morning... the thought popped into my head. And Ayn Rand in her heavily accented voice said, "A sexual organ is not an argument."
