Vanity! Help requested to answer a Moonbat email

Below is an email I received from a distant cousin this a.m. Below it is my initial response. I seem to recall hearing that Air America was under investigation for misusing public monies or some such violation. If anyone has information about this, I'd love to email my 'Moonbat' cousin with the details; or perhaps similar stories that pertain to 'Moonbat' stupidity.
If a 'Moonbat' wants to get me into a political discussion, using Air America garbage is NOT the way to go about it.

State of the union
This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address occur in the same week. As Air America Radio pointed out, "It is an ironic juxtaposition of events: one involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication while the other involves a groundhog."
My response is below:
Air America? What's that? Oh, yeah, that idiot socialist radio effort funded by George Soros that's going downhill fast.
Reading this, I understand why.

I've only known these people for a few years, having 'discovered' their relationship to me through genealogy research. The cousin is a retired school teacher who has usually come across as practical; that is until now.
This is my first post so be kind.

So, you've identified another Err America listener?
That brings their total audience to three.

I got that email this morning too. I just deleted it. If someone has to go to Air America for humor then they're a lost cause. Welcome to FR! :o)

Tell 'em that it's all true: there is a Bush/Oil conspiracy, their email/phone conversations are being recorded, etc. Then tell them that they should definitely leave the USA until it's safe for them to come back, but we don't know when that will be. Suggest they move to Cuba.

You can't pick your relatives, but you can ignore them. If the big bucks donors to Air America were to pull their funds, AA would fold immediately. They could not sustain themselves with ad revenue.

As Rush Limbaugh has pointed out many times, for humor to be funny, it has to have an element of truth to it. Democratic humor rarely has even the remotest truth in it.

That's three too many in my book!
I too deleted the email, but only after replying.
I get enough junk by email without having to suffer through this garbage. I just wanted to let them know what they think. Then I got the idea of following up with stuff about Air America.

You could say that "creature of little intelligence" has outsmarted the opposition on almost every single issue. If Chimpy is so stupid - what does that make the Democrats?

I have a left-wing wackjob female cousin in Durham, NC (Duke Univ grad), whom I've driven from the dinner table in tears with rebuts against her anti-Bush, anti-US Military, anti-Conservative rants, and now I just ignore her idiocy.
You can pick your friends; you can't pick your relatives.

Tell your cousin he was found on a door step.

Chuck it in the trash. It's not worth it to waste keyboard clicks and internet bandwidth with closed-minded individuals.

"Chuck it in the trash. It's not worth it to waste keyboard clicks and internet bandwidth with closed-minded individuals." I would agree except for the line: "WARNING: The Republicans probably won't find this amusing. For the rest of us, it's fitting"
This person really has no reason to know my politics, so this tells me she didn't care whether she insulted me or not. I'm retired, have lots of time, and don't mind wasting 'keyboard strokes' on this kind of affrontery.

I'd say something like 'I'll get back to you on a follow-up real soon, just getting everything ready for Reagan's birthday party today...' That should keep any more emails away.

Wow! I got an e mail this morning too! It was on George Carlin's Peace Plan... or maybe it was Robin Williams... or Drew Carey. Wait, maybe it was Denzel Washington, or was it about speeding? Anyways:
A GREAT PLAN
Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan . . . what we need now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat this message.
Robin Williams' plan...(Hard to argue with this logic!)
I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of one plan for peace. "Books, not Bombs" won't work. The head mullahs won't let anyone read them. If they do, they poke their eyes out.
Here's the plan:
1) The US will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their affairs, past &present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini and the rest of them 'good old boys'. We will never "interfere" again.
2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with Germany, South Korea and the Philippines. They don't want us there. We would station troops at our borders. No more sneaking through holes in the fence.
3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of who or where they are. France would welcome them.
4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 days unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist nation would be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself, don't hide here. Asylum would not ever be available to anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers.
5) No "students" over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back home baby.
6) The US will make a strong effort to become self sufficient energy wise. This will include developing non-polluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while.
7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else.
8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not "interfere". They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most get very little, if any anyway.
9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an island some place. We don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, it would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.
10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can call us "Ugly Americans" any longer.
Now, ain't that a winner of a plan ??
And then I forwarded it, to everyone I know, as I usually do, and I got back several e mails that said "Take me off your e mail list" but I know they were just joking.

I would briefly inform him that you've forwarded that e-mail to the NSA's Un-American Activities Surveillance Section, and that he should be hearing from them in a few days.

As Air America Radio pointed out Ironically, Air America has to have their message delivered by spam e-mail so that someone hears it.

They have to be joking, why would anyone want off YOUR email list!
