And y’all wonder why I call the Daily Kos Kids Kooky? Lots more at the link but just consider this bit of lunacy! And yes,m we do have today’s Marxist Morons!
Blogger Kevin Tully is really angry about the election returns and wondered if “all of us, [are] being played like one huge, oxygen starved, exhausted, gullible fish? Is the destruction of the environment and civil society absolutely necessary to maintain the “American Dream?” He suggested on Thursday that the American Dream is a deadly disease we spread globally:
The “American Dream” is a worldwide viral phenomenon – with many more potentially dire consequences than AIDS or Avian Flu. We have exported this thing from one end of the earth to the other – it’s like the gifted puppy that can never be housetrained, it grows up, still, so cute and familiar – your proud of your gift, it craps on the floor and tears down the curtains – it’s [sic] new owners overlook the crap; the dog is so cute – however, you can’t get over the crap and torn curtains when you visit.
This past weeks [sic] election was a referendum on the puppy. The rhetoric and the outcome were very predictable: The folks that are still very proud of the puppy were very persuasive and voted, most of us other folks – stayed home.

Metaphors aside, he is right.
He is right? About what exactly?
The nostalgic hope for some American Dream that never was, and never will be. The majority of people, of all political stripes, tend to vote from the heart as opposed to the brain.
Come on Doug. No one has really made something of themselves here. No one has opportunity. Our families, careers, homes, and all other aspects of our lives-you know, all of those things we actually achieved, are really just illusions. No one has created a product, started a business, created jobs, or contributed anything to society. We’ll wake up to realize that we are living in a government house, working a government job, eating government food, and thinking happy government thoughts.
I’m really convinced that the Kool-Aid causes permanent brain damage-and that guy drank a tanker full.
Excellent thoughts Matt
