Jack T. Ripper Conservatism
The Rick Perry Report ^ | Oct 4, 2011 | Joe Hyde

Posted on 10/04/2011 6:04:27 PM PDT by bullypulpit

In the movie Dr. Strangelove Brig. Gen. Jack T. Ripper, the wing commander of a nuclear bomb-armed B-52 wing determined that the Communists had infiltrated the U.S. and contaminated "our precious bodily fluids" with fluoride in the water supply. He was willing to take the country to war, using a loophole called "Wing Attack Plan R" that allowed individual bomb wing commanders to autonomously launch an attack on the Soviet Union, if they felt that the national command structure had been compromised. The Soviets, fearing such an attack during the Cold War, had designed a doomsday device that would blow up the entire world if they were bombed.

Ignoring all consequences, Ripper was so concerned about the purity of essence of the water supply that he illegally launched the attack and destroyed the world in doing so.

Many conservatives are Jack T. Ripper Republicans today. And Mitt Romney is their Doomsday device.

Tired, old and useless drivel at this point in time. If you Perry backers can’t come up with anything other than this doomsday garbage you have a very big problem. Instead of defending your candidate’s qualities you demean everyone else. Sicko.

Jack D. Ripper? Oh crap. I just checked Wikipedia. You’re right! Well, thanks to the technology of mod_rewrite, you can views the story as Jack T. Ripper or (correctly) as Jack D. Ripper. It’s fixed.

Really don’t see the Dr. Strangelove analogy with Romney but might as well have fun with favorite quotes a la Blazing Saddles:

“Them russkies might harpoon us but they sure ain’t gonna spot us on no radar! Hell, if we were flying any lower we’d have to put sleigh bells on this thing!”

As a Palin supporter, with a strong support for Cain as well, I cannot disparage Perry.

His recent efforts seem commendable to me and I enjoy his continued contribution toward defeating Obama and restoring the Republic.

Mitt Romney would be yet another RINO whose turn it was to run for President, think of the blazing success of Bob Dole and Crazy John Maverick McCain and you’ll be able to predict how the O will win re-election in 2012!
