Darell Issa to subpoena Country Joe McDonald.

Last edited Mon May 13, 2013, 01:14 PM - Edit history (2)

Chair of the House Oversight Committee, Darrell Issa (R), announced that he will subpoena rock legend Country Joe McDonald to testify before his committee. Issa believes that McDonald has ties to recent subversive activities. "It has come to my attention that, just prior to 9/11, Mr. McDonald enthusiastically encouraged hundreds of thousands drug addled jihadists to destroy Wall Street. We all know what happened next when 19 of his followers crashed airplanes into various targets, including the center of US trade. We have connected the dots and believe that some of his followers were involved in more recent attacks, including the attack on the diplomatic mission in Benghazi."

When asked how he found out about Country Joe McDonald, now 71 years old, addressed the crowd of jihadists, Mr. Issa directed the press corps to this video, which secretly documented the entire affair:

You had me going there for a moment. A dear friend of mine lives just down the street from Country Joe in north Berkeley.

"Mr. McDonald enthusiastically encouraged hundreds of thousands drug addled jihadists to destroy Wall Street"

I'm beginning to wonder if this is a thread they'll try to use to tie Occupy to terrorism?

"now come on wall street don't be slow, why man this's war a-go-go, there's plenty good money to be made, supplyin' the army with the tools of the trade, just hope and pray that when they drop the bomb, they drop it on the Vietcong."

Have you seen his web site? He has links to all of the Occupy sites.

The republicans have been very imaginatively looking for ways to demonize Occupy. It's as ridiculous and desperate, but that's nothing new.

I just realized that using the word "thread" might have been confusing. I was using it as analogy for "weaving" a conspiracy theory, but I wasn't clear.

If so, is the reason Ted Nugent didn't play Woodstock because he was fighting in Vietnam?
