Oh my.

First up, the racist babbling sister primitive, who thinks "darky" and "pickaninny" toys are "cute":

Today in crazy: Liz Cheney defends the Birthers 

http://www.salon.com/opinion/walsh/politics/2009/07/22/...

You'll have to see it to believe it, and the video isn't up yet. But Tuesday night on CNN's "Larry King Live," rising GOP shill/star Liz Cheney refused to denounce the "Birthers" -- the right-wing fringe movement devoted to denying (for a changing array of reasons) that Obama is eligible to be president. Instead, Cheney defended the Birthers by blaming Obama for their rage.

I wasn't planning to blog so I took notes in real-time, and I can't promise Cheney's quote is verbatim. But she said the same thing twice, so I'm confident I caught her drift. After King showed video of the crazy birther who disrupted a meeting with poor GOP Sen. Mike Castle, demanding he acknowledge Obama was born in Kenya (that's one birther claim); and after Carville denounced them as a "poor, pathetic" fringe group, King gave Cheney a chance to distance herself from them. But Cheney demurred, telling King the Birther movement exists because "People are uncomfortable with a president who is reluctant to defend the nation overseas."

The rarely shocked Carville seemed briefly speechless, and even King, not known to be the most combative interviewer, tried a second time to get an honest reaction from Cheney -- which I read as expecting her to separate herself from the crazies. But Cheney repeated her talking point about Obama inadequately defending the nation overseas. Unbelievable.

Now, I've debated Cheney, so I know she'll do anything from rudely interrupting to lying to make her point, but even I expected her to take King's opportunity to distinguish her brand of Republicanism from the hooligans who run with the Birthers. But she didn't. Wow. The GOP keeps coughing up younger, supposedly more compelling, "new" leadership, from Sarah Palin to Mark Sanford to, now, Liz Cheney -- and they keep making clear they're not ready for prime time. It's remarkable.

Look for Cheney to try to "clarify" her remarks in the next few news cycles, but she made her true colors clear on CNN tonight, and they're even uglier than I thought.

Why are the primitives so worried about this issue?

The primitives are obsessed with it.

18. "Look for Cheney to 'clarify' her remarks..."? Fat chance. Cheney's don't misspeak.

When they say something evil and/or ludicrous, especially twice, you know it's been carefully scripted and well thought-out. Personally, I won't be looking for Liz Cheney to clarify. I'll be waiting for her to reiterate.

Does anybody happen to know anything about Cocoanut Beach, or Cocoa Grove, where Pedro Picasso allegedly spent his ladhood?

Is that one of those post-World-War-II Levittowns down there in Florida?

Obamas' BC is locked safely away with John Kerrys original DD 214.

Okay, so it's one of those tourist-trap places.

Its a strange thing to be obsessed with, for sure. Nobody but the 'troofers' are concerned about what they think about 9/11 , so why are so many primitives just bent out of shape over what they consider to be a fringe movement.

Just like the Tea Parties - every primitive paints the parties as racist fringe gatherings, yet they just can't stop flapping on and on about them.. Why is that ?

To clarify, since that's the topic of the bonfire, while roaming around the countryside last weekend, looking at garage sales, at one place I found a most remarkable item.

It was one of those 33 rpm plastic discs, with cover.  Some all-women's singing group hip during the 1960s.  I looked at the other side of the cover, which had the lyrics to the music on it.

One of them was about "little boxes made of ticky-tacky, little boxes all the same," or something like that.  And I immediately thought of Pedro Picasso, who exemplifies 1960s suburban television-dominated America.

The 1960s were a very long time ago now, but Pedro Picasso is still stuck in them.

And so that's why I wondered if this Cocoanut Beach place was a Levittown.

There were lots and lots of Levittowns, not just on Long Island or north of Philadelphia.

Well, now it appears this Cocoanut Beach place looks to be one of those tourist-traps.

One wonders what the percentage of homes on wheels they have, as compared with homes on foundations.

I think I prefer a party with a lunatic fringe to one with a lunatic base.

They're beyond obsessed.  They're lost all sense of perception with the topic.

I'm glad they've grabbed onto it.  As with anything they hope to use to advance their sick anti-American agenda, it always fails to materialize.  This will be no different.

As for the topic itself, it really hasn't been something I've dwelt on, but if it drives the primitives crazy that it's happening, then I give it 2 thumbs up for that alone.
