On a Wingnut and a Prayer


The Clownhall columnist Douglas MacKinnon and his juvenile minions are just...plain...sick. Fortunately for all of us, I'm pretty sure they truly ARE the lunatic fringe, fantasizing about the nuclear destruction of an American city without the first thought as to the consequences, minus some genuinely batty questions about electro-magnetic pulse and the possible effects on Big Time's pacemaker.

UNfortunately for all of us, batshit insane wingnuttery is still on the political table, as it were--Team Bush still at the White House, Giuliani and Romney still considered serious candidates for high office, Lamebone and his protege Glenn Beck are still polluting our airwaves, etc. etc.

You know, no wonder they don't have the slightest issue with the mindless death and destruction our tax dollars are paying for in the Middle East. And let's be realistic: 9/11, for them, has never been anything except something to exploit. I mean, c'mon: New York City USED to be, if not the ultimate bete noir for wingnuttia, certainly up on the medal stand, a city to be sneered at with evident contempt. In fact, I doubt seriously that wingnuttia would have done a thing to PREVENT 9/11, if given the chance.

And THAT, by the way, IS a defining difference.
