Celebrity Leaders of the Anti-Peasant Crusade

Why is Lou Dobbs considered an “expert” on Immigration, but not Colbert? Now they’re barking because Colbert testified in Congress as an “expert witness”. And say that his only expertise was that he’s a “Celebrity” Say whut? The problem they’re having with his expertise isn’t the shock to the senses that your first day of Field Labor is to ANYBODY. (It’s why the Founding Fathers “hired” slaves to do it for them, because let’s face it, if George Washington or Madison or Jefferson had to go out and cut their own damn tobacco and sugar cane (cotton wasn’t a cash crop until later) they would have starved. Labor built the fortunes of the “Founding Fathers” the same way Labor builds the fortunes of the Capitalists today.) But they’re claiming that his “expert” status was somehow due to his status as a Celebrity. So, what now, do they stop listening to that stupid John Wayne Record about how honorable it is to join the Army, travel to exotic places, meet interesting people, and Kill Them?

Since John Wayne’s only expertise on war and military was that he portrayed Soldiers in some of his movies. Same with Ronald Reagan, George W, Romney, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Ted Nugent, Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, Tom Tancredo, Bill O’Reilly, Rudi Giuliani, Lou Dobbs…

The only experiences they had as “warriors” is that they dodged the draft and sent other people to kill and die in their stead. And they have an equivalent level of expertise in Immigration, Constitutional Law, Religion, Terrorism, or any of the other “Celebrity Expertise” they tout, and yes, even instruct the Right Wing Lunatic members of Congress on those subjects.

Ted Nugent boasted that he “beat the draft” by shitting on himself then not bathing for a month before his Draft Board examination. Convinced the doctors he was crazy. Instead of just being a chickenshit. Now he supports all Wars and dares people to disagree with him.

Kind of the same way Sarah Palin told people not to sit down or shut up, unless they “heckled” her, then she had Government police paid by Tax Money to enforce for her and violently remove anybody who dared to speak against her.

Ted Nugent would do that same thing if you tried to take up his challenge at one of HIS hate rallies. Even though he’s prancing around the stage, like the silly bitch he truly is, with an allegedly fully loaded machine gun. He’d still have somebody else do his fighting for him.

But not a whimper from the Right Wing Noise Factory about HIS use of a “celebrity status” to tout their bullshit for them.

Rudi Giuliani is a typical Pig, former prosecutor, like local Celebrities Ken Buck and Doug Bruce, meaning they stood in court, hiding behind their PIG comrades to make sure nobody gets “uppity” with them, and talk like they’re “Tough Guys”. Chickenshits and Pigs, Chickenhawks all.

Giuliani is touted as an “Expert” in Terrorism because he got skunked, allegedly by the same group, twice… in exactly the same place.
That and he led a Fearless Campaign against the poorest of the poor in New York City. Real “heroic expert” there.

Not a single one of the Right Wing Lunatic Fringe ever objects when Il Rudi testifies before Congress.

Lou Dobbs is touted as an “Expert” in immigration HOW?

His family immigrated much earlier and they most certainly didn’t have the permission of (at the time) Most Americans. Most Americans at the time being Non-White and definitely opposed to the Heavily Armed European Illegal Immigrant Wave. Called the police to his house and said “Mexicans” had shot at his house while he wasn’t there. When asked WHICH “mexicans” and how did he know they actually were “mexicans” since NOBODY SAW IT HAPPEN and there are No Suspects he’ll get all huffy and call you a Commie Pinko Nigger Loving Fag
Jewboy Liberal. Nice deflect there, Mr Dobbs! Get caught in a lie and sling racist rhetoric as a shield as you back away from the question!

No objections from the Far Right Zombie Squad about HIS expertise either.

But I guess being a “celebrity” isn’t so much a handicap in being declared an “expert”… as long as you’re a Right Wing Parrot, and read your script exactly as it’s written.

The hypocrisy smells worse than last week’s tuna salad.

The Lakota saw six grandfathers where Mt Rushmore fests expansionist four

A recurring discussion at the base of Mount Rushmore is whose face next belongs alongside America’s fantastic four. There’s room for more obviously, as the mountain’s Lakota name was the Six Grandfathers. They saw resemblance enough in the rocks without the Denver Mint faces. Visitors can be excused not recognizing Theodore Roosevelt, the only cameo without a coin –he lacks a DC monument too, but Teddy most certainly belongs here. To determine who else might qualify, we have to wonder at what exactly Mt Rushmore means to memorialize.

Mount Rushmore immortalizes above all a New York lawyer who persevered for half a century to assure the not inobscure landmark was named after him. The government approved carve-up was intended to draw visitors to South Dakota. Concurrent tourist spot projects included the cement dinosaurs of Rapid City and Wall Drug. The icon-fashioned mountain became its own icon, casting a Cliff Notes summary of American History into stone. Whatever posterity would have to say about their legacy, these presidents would remain an unscalable height above reproach.

George Washington was father of our country, if not what today we hold as our ideals. Washington wanted to liberate colonial profits from the tiers owed its royal investors. He fought only for the independence of the American propertied class, and faced revolt from the common soldiery who bore the brunt of fighting off the British.

Thomas Jefferson pushed us west and invented the facade of democracy based on an illusory “all men created equal” utopian agrarian society. Jefferson would have known that no farms can operate without farmhands, and that peasant revolts have never sparked revolution. Above all, who was Jefferson to pretend that you can keep everyone down on the farm once they’d seen Paree? A farmer can imbibe education and culture only if he’s got slaves doing the work.

Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves and held the union together. An America divided would have been vulnerable to resorption by the European powers. More important, the engine of our export economy was the South. Cotton and tobacco dwarfed fur.

Theodore Roosevelt championed conservation, like the national parks, but he’s on the mountain because he took America’s Manifest Destiny international. Roosevelt oversaw industry extend its empire-building offshore in search of cheap labor, resources and markets.

When conversation turns to whose face should adorn the pantheon of American expansionists, we are not lacking for capitalist do-gooders. I overheard “Obama”, “Henry Ford” or “Bill Gates,” perfectly in keeping with the theme.

In chronological order after the Rough Rider, to my mind, JP Morgan could be the beginning and the end, as father of the malevolent banking monopoly which has fated the world to Potterville.

Improving Rushmore would naturally be to efface it. How much longer really are the sculpted heads going to look like a “feat of engineering” and not simply a defilement of nature? Already what’s praised as a “work of art” looks more like a bad tattoo. Native American voices oppose the nearby Affirmative Action Crazy Horse Monument because no Indian they say would want his image superimposed on landscape.

If we can’t take it down, I have a suggestion for an additional face that neither perpetuates the enshrinement of our patronizing leadership, nor pretends to reflect a rehabilitated self-awareness. I propose we conduct an essay contest among American school children. From the dead-last, dumbest entry we select a child’s face to represent our nation’s failed intellectual promise, product of poor schooling, propaganda and poisoned spirit. That would be the face to commemorate America’s hard-headed, dumb as a brick, jackboot future.
