Right Wing Thinking Enters the Twilight Zone

I know it's not all that fair to ridicule comments on posts at wingnut blogs, but this one I just couldn't resist:

Obama's involvement with 9-11!  Yes, you read that right!  Obama did absolutely nothing to prevent 9-11, and he is personally responsible for us having to "retaliate" against Iraq, which had nothing to do with 9-11.  It was all Obama's doing!  And it was just like Benghazi all over again, even though it happened a decade before Benghazi!

Man, what can you say about this kind of lie?  Do Big Bad Bob and Erik really believe that Obama is responsible for 9-11?  Do they think their fellow wingnuts are so abysmally ignorant and filled with evil that they will believe anything about Obama, no matter how sick and patently false?  Do they care, as long as they can have this pathetic public platform to vent their hatred?  Do we even want to know the answer to what lies in their minds?

It's things like this that have convinced me that there is no answer to these people that doesn't involve just letting them get old and die.  After all, the average age of Fox News watchers is over 65, so they don't have that long left.  Hopefully, the next couple of generations won't find a new Ronald Reagan to teach them that greed and hatred are wonderful things, so this country can get back on some kind of decent path.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
