(Email BARF!) Let's visualize what's right with the world

email | Unk. | Robert Watson

[thefactor]

I got this email from a friend of mine who lives in Seattle. If it has been posted before, please blow it away but I could not find it during my searches.

Words cannot describe my reaction so I thought I'd share.

Typical liberal BS for sure, but I couldn't let this go without sharing. I checked and this Prof. does exist. His parents were Pennsylvania steel workers or coal miners or whatever. Figures.

You’d think Robert (Gibbs?) would be busy with other stuff, like giving non-answers to the press.

[SJSAMPLE]

What a load of horse shit!

This one is as much of a qualified statement as anything I’ve read recently:

89. Has announced his intention to push for energy reform

[RightWingConspirator]

82. New Afghan War policy that limits aerial bombing and prioritizes aid, development of infrastructure, diplomacy, and good government practices by Afghans

I'm sure all of the GIs in Afghanistan are delirously happy with the looney Rules of Engagement that Zero has decreed that is certain to get a lot of them kille.

51. Lower drug costs for seniors

Is that before or after they cut 550 BILLION from Medi-Care?

You don’t have to pay as much if you are dead, I guess.

Another nutty Dim. I think it was written by a guy named Robert Watson, of Florida. Wiki sayeth:

"A member of the Democratic Party, Watson announced in May 2005, that he would run for the United States House of Representatives in Florida's 22nd District, which pitted him against Republican incumbent Rep. Clay Shaw. Watson later withdrew from the race. Shaw was defeated by the eventual Democratic candidate, Ron Klein.

"Politically, Watson has advocated universal health care and strengthening environmental protections. He has been vocal about “the country’s leadership deficit,” dubbing the record deficits and debt a “birth tax” on the next generation and decrying boasts of patriotism with failures to provide adequate benefits to veterans or armor for troops as “moral hypocrisy.”

"In 2006, Watson and Yury Konnikov founded the non-profit think tank Think Act Lead, which advocates political reforms and progressive solutions to public problems..."

Gives new meaning to PHD (Piled Higher & Deeper). Prof. Watson has taken one too many acid trips.

And people just take it as gospel. We actually like to see some proof.

6. Ended media blackout on war casualties; reporting full information

Odd, I haven't heard one tally of how many people have died in the past year anywhere in the media.

[a fool in paradise]

81. Deployed additional troops to Afghanistan

Delayed deployment of additional troops to Afghanhistan and then did not provide the requested number.

Also issued a pullout date so the enemy would know that we are not in to win.

[a fool in paradise]

29. Better body armor is now being provided to our troops

Yeah! Take THAT LBJ and FDR. In your face! < /sarc >

[a fool in paradise]

69. The FDA is now regulating tobacco

Prohibiting all flavored tobaccos except the menthol cigarettes smoked by President Obama and some of his supporters.

[MuttTheHoople]

Under Bush, my family had a 6-figure salary. Under Obama, we on Food Stamps and Medi-Caid.

20. New funds for school construction

There is no constitutional provision for the federal government to fund schools. It is a state and county issue.

[a fool in paradise]

89. Has announced his intention to push for energy reform

Which he has said will necessarily cause energy costs to skyrocket.

[a fool in paradise]

One he missed:

Has announced his intention to usher in transparency and led a call to televise the healthcare reform hearings on CSPAN.
